I'm Sure Plenty Are Corrupt To Start With
To Enter 'Public Service' Of Elective Office
You Have To Be Pretty Full Of Yourself To Start With
(Almost All Are Lawyers)
So What Is Their Motive
Idealism ??
Champion To Right Wrongs ??
Personal Power If One Can Remain An Incumbent ??
And Knowing There Will Eventually Be
Far More Wealth Than Just One's Salary ??
What Happened To The Seventy Or So TEA Candidates We Sent Up ??
Can You Name Any By Watching Now ??

We've come a far way from the idea of serving in Congress or as a President for a term or two and then returning to one's regular occupation.
A big part of the problem is the amount of money needed to run for public office at the federal level. Radio and TV stations licensed by the FCC should be required to air political ads as a public service. These ads should focus on a candidate's platform and political philosophy.
The length of campaigns should be restricted to 6 months for federal offices and 3 months for state offices.

This stuff is why I question how successful president Trump will be over the long haul. He makes a statement, and I think he means what he says at the time, we wait for the results, but nothing happens. What he says off the cuff isn't what the planners have in mind.
I've pointed out that one of the president's goals was to either abolish or renegotiate Nafta. However, that has dropped off the radar, same with the border wall. The fuss over immigrant children has taken the spotlight away from the wall and other Trump initiatives. Which, by the way, is probably the intent.
However, there is still time for the president to carry through, but I won't be holding my breath till it happens.

I think many are still there, most of them make up the freedom caucus. Senator Jordan is a one-man tea party.

It is hard to fight a battle on four sides when some of your own men are against you. Once the Rinos are replaced by true loyal patriots the battles can be won.
I pray the true loyal patriots of American freedom wake up and v**e for American freedom as our forefathers set up when they conceived our constitution.
Semper Fi American patriots everywhere.

By Whom ??
The Left Which Raised The Fuss ??
Why Would They Want To Take Attention Off Trump Initiatives
That You Say Have Fallen To The Wayside ??
The Left's Obsession
With The Mueller Nada Burger Investigation
Is What Takes Network Attention Off Everything Worthwile
