What do Americans think they voted for? Almost all of their politicians are bought and paid for by Israel and have been for decades, yet they are all surprised their politicians are self serving prks

Boy howdy, here’s the argument against banning laughably corrupt stock trading by notable genius Ron Johnson. Yeah, let’s give wealthy folks, or hell the ones just aspiring to be, unique incentives like insider trading to run for office.

But the stupid magas will buy it. During taco’s first adm a person was quoted saying that they were ok that their medical coverage would become astronomical under felon47 because that was what needed to be done to undo the damage the Dems have done. Morons!

None of that matters to the Republican slime running this country. They cheer it on, including over half of the Supreme Court.
