I don’t get into politics but I might have some insight here. I had dinner a while back with a member of Congress who is a personal friend. He decided not to run for re-election and has since gone back to public life.
The disgust with Members lies not with what the President does or does not do. Most don’t have dealings with him directly. The closest they get is a photo shoot or two.
Instead of doing work for the people, half the working day is spent on Party fundraising and intense pressure to vote party lines or face “consequences” abounds.
Good people who run and succeed in order to do good are met with a “Steam Roller” driven by Party leadership....... Democrat or Republican. “Fall in line or lose re-election support!” “Fall in line or face no chance of authored Bill review!” “We’ve done it this way for decades and it is not going to change!”
“Back Stabbing” in Congress is worse than High School. Those who don’t get in line face a Congressional Exorcism led by strong arm career politicians. The President has little, if anything, to do with it.
Trump may be an embarrassment at times but I look at results. I could give a flying fu#k if he had screwed a porn star 10 years ago or had shady dealings building a Billion dollar business, or talks about his sexual exploits or wet dreams..... I just wish Congress would quit worrying about losing the power they have and worry more about where they are taking the Country!
