Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) claimed in a speech on Thursday that “the right wants a strongman daddy figure” in describing his political party while asserting that Democrats want “a powerful, nameless but supposedly benevolent bureaucracy.”
“In the 2016 presidential campaign, you had two candidates with wildly different solution sets, but their fundamental diagnosis was really the same. The system’s rigged, you’re getting screwed, you’re a victim, the country is going down the tubes, you’re victims,” Sasse said while giving remarks at “A Time for Choosing Speaker Series” event by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute.
“The left wants a powerful, nameless but supposedly benevolent bureaucracy. The right wants a strongman daddy figure, but the loudest of them all agree on one thing: America, the one the founders gave us, the one kept for us by our parents and grandparents, it doesn’t work anymore,” he continued. “They can’t work anymore. These are not the good faith positions of two big healthy political parties that are just competing about different visions of leadership.”
The Nebraska Republican also claimed it was “full of crap” for both political parties to villainize the other in what have become an increasingly partisan climate, especially in light of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, in which a mob of pro-Trump supporters tried to stop Congress from certifying the 2020 presidential election.

I want a lot LESS government in my life, in my business, and in my face.
I just want the government to keep the promises made in the original Constitution and the Bill of Rights and then just get out of the way.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Instead, what we have is a government that has trained its citizens to be increasingly dependent on it, in effect creating a slavocracy of obedient servants.
Ben Sasse is a small-minded, small-souled, weak-spined, little piece of monkey poo in human form.
No, Ben, you moronic little sludge, we don't want a Fuhrer ... those are for leftists like yourself.
We want LIBERTY ... something your are ill equipped to comprehend and unable to handle.
FWIW, I just checked this creature’s bio on Wiki. I can’t quite say that he has never held an honest job, but it’s darn close. He’s a career politician with three garbage degrees to his name, a useless meat-sack with no marketable skills.
No. We just want someone who is not part of the existing cabal.
What the Right really wants is for RINO Ben Sasse to STFU!
Let’s say Sasse is correct (not saying he is), then will he admit the Left wants a wimp they can maneuver like a puppet??
