It makes me wonder if there were a shooting at a Congress members child or grandchild’s school, would they give a damn? Would thoughts and prayers for their dead or injured child/grandchild be enough? I hope it doesn’t take that. This is all so unnecessary.

If trump is so focused on war and people dying, why isn’t he as concerned about children dying due to gun violence in THIS country. Will this not get him a Nobel?

It is hard to fathom that young children are braver than the members of Congress. A child got on top of his friend to save him and he was shot. In my mind I see the large number of congressional “runners” on J6 who are weaklings who won’t do ANYTHING to protect children from gun violence. SHAMEFUL!

He spends $1.1 million a day for policing a blue city, $2 billion for refurbing streets, millions for a new ballroom, millions for a parade but he does NOTHING for the average person. He cuts funds for Medicaid, hurts the economy, defunds research and many continue to support him. It blows my mind.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
