Good luck with that, Matt.

Very few American voters have any interest in fiscal responsibility — as long as they don’t have to pay for the irresponsibility.

Kevin McCarthy may be on the wrong side here, but they are on the side that wins elections.

Yes. Better to win and pilot the ship into the rocks than be unpopular and steer around them or reverse course.

It takes a special kind of stupid to go for the pyrrhic victory as the default course of action every time.

And in case you hadn’t noticed republican victories have been few and far between and even the latest republican “victory” was far smaller than it should have been.

And only the heir to the kingdom of stupid defines near continual devastating losses as winning because “it could have been worse.”

And that attitude is the heart and soul of today’s GOP leaders.

Better to rule in hell, than serve in heaven.

We are all paying for national debt. With inflation and higher taxes.

The uniparty is bankrupting this country on purpose so they can usher in totalitarian communism.

McCarthy is proof that winning elections is still exactly like losing.

That kind of stupid has gotten us where we are today. Gaetz is doing what we all should have been doing for the last 40 years.
