Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, has openly questioned whether the GOP deserves to keep the House majority, lamenting the lack of accomplishments this Congress. He’s not alone.
When Congress began the new year, Rep. Andy Biggs gave a television interview and made a startling confession: House Republicans have done nothing they can run on.
“We have nothing. In my opinion, we have nothing to go out there and campaign on,” the Arizona Republican said on the conservative network Newsmax. “It’s embarrassing.”
Anchor Chris Salcedo responded with a bemused chuckle. “I know,” he said. “The Republican Party in the Congress majority has zero accomplishments.”
The exchange captured a dynamic that looms over Republican lawmakers heading into the 2024 election: They’ve passed little substantive legislation since winning the majority in 2022 and struggled to do the basics of governing with a Democratic-led Senate. Their first year was instead marked by fractiousness and chaos, complicating the party’s pitch to voters this fall. The challenge is accentuated by likely GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump making “retribution” against his enemies, rather than shared policy goals, the centerpiece of his comeback bid as he continues to spread fabricated claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
You forgot to mention giving Hunter’s junk more exposure than he ever did. MTG is proud of that one.
That’s cuz she wants to fuck him so bad and she knows he even high as shit his standards wouldn’t go that low.
As a fan of Magic The Gathering, I really wish people would stop referring to Ms Green using her initials.
I wholeheartedly agree!
M:tG ≠ MTG
The fact that punctuation and capitalisation are necessary to distinguish the two is quite upsetting.
Would be nice if we could have a president whose offspring isn’t a problematic embarrassment of a human being, though.
Who gives a shit about his offspring? What a ridiculous red herring. What’d be nice is a PRESIDENT who isn’t a problematic embarrassment of a human being, but somehow Trump’s chances aren’t even slim.
Would be nice if assholes considered the full scale of loss and depression that the Biden family has been through and if we could have members of Congress and the public who didn’t go on irrelevant fishing expeditions for bullshit because they’re defending an even more problematic ex-president while whining about law and order.
You’re so right.
The Bidens’ tender feelings should be our collective priority here. Most definitely.
Excellent job missing the point.
Thank you.
Maybe if Republicans weren’t so focused on a private citizen’s personal issues they would have some accomplishments to campaign on.
Like that hussy Alice Roosevelt smoking cigarettes and riding in cars with men! The nerve.
Seriously, why the fuck do you care what a citizen does? They are not their parent, and vice versa.
At least Biden’s children went to college and got a job on their own, instead of simultaneously being given a business empire and federal public offices in the White House.
Drug addict or not, he’s about as problematic as Obama’s kids.
