That is true.

I disagree but they have been feminizing men for a long time and nobody wants to go to prison. If permits were not required to open carry more bad guys would have acquired room temperature.

Never do that, you earned it and so did I.

I know that. I can be immersed in sarcasm. Been that way since I was weaned. Never got over the shock.

We might be related. If I had had teeth, they never would have been able to wean me. Ross Perot could have heard me.

As you already noted-Paul Ryan definitely proved he is/was part of the problem, but basically the whole lot of them (from both sides) are corrupt and not worth spitting on.

There's an old cliche/meme, based on a fairy tale, which IMO perfectly sums up our current situation concerning this 'swamp' which is holding our political system hostage-'Oh what a wicked web they did weave, when first they practiced to deceive'. This goes hand in hand with the 'end justifies the means' mindset progressives now blatantly and unashamedly practice. Nobody in Wash wants to see anything changed much from what it is now-oh, they'll talk about it when/if put on the spot (which isn't very often)-but, behind the curtains they are sabotaging any effort to reform their cesspool. Most of our current conservative pols-esp the rhinos-have (at a minimum) made looking dumb, unconcerned, and/or out of touch appear fashionable...
I don't know what the answer is either.. but it's definitely not as simple as 'thru elections'.. b/c Wash can corrupt them much faster than we can elect them.........

I'm not as nice as you are, or as explanatory. Ain't but 5 people in Washington DC who support Trump.
Jordan
Meadows
Nunes
Graham (recently)
Lee
Other than those, I see only complicit lazy traitorous rinos.

Perhaps, but there aren't many at all. Most Republicans are anti Trump. I trust those who display Trump loyalty. Not many do.
