Which brings up the perennial Question: Why vote for Republicans?
That’s why I don’t vote for Republicans. In some ways Republicans are worse because they vote like Democrats, but use rhetoric the base wants to hear. They always arrange a close vote, so that most of the Republicans can scream they voted against it to their constituents - but you notice what the Democrats want always passes anyway, with just enough Republican votes.
The whole thing is a giant single party scam. That’s why my voting days are over. It really doesn’t change anything.
