    Don't the overpaid representatives have something better to do than spend hours, days, and months and millions asking the same question and getting the same answers? Millions being wasted doing nothing to better the country, but rather tear it down.

    Apparently they don't. The bigger question is why those they represent are not doing something about it... unless of course they are equally TDS idiots consumed with hatred of Trump.

    TDS--Trump Delusion Syndrome whereby once honest republicans swallow lies and corruption hook, line and sinker -- the end justifies the means -- deluding themselves and giving up any credibility they once had in understanding and cooperating with others for the good of the nation.

    Beth, you mention your version of TDS so often it appears you've become dependent on it and would go through withdrawal if you went a week without it's use. You may have BRS -- Broken Record Syndrome.

    That is the case in the region I live. It is all about unfounded hatred of the president. No reasoning, just blind hatred.

    Sometimes I think politicians, and maybe society, enjoy the game. It keeps them occupied enough to avoid addressing the real problems. Looking at the real problems of real people would demand a response......and very few politicians or people, on either side, actually give a crap. As long as they have what they need and feel all fat and healthy, the rest of society can live in a garbage can. They pretend to care, but they don't.

    Yes, and you never fail to take the bait.

    Beth, perhaps we should have a jar and whenever one of us mentions TDS (of either stripe) then the guilty party must add coinage to the jar. In no time, we might raise enough currency to have a BBQ at your house for the whole gang. I'd volunteer my place, but I don't have a backyard or enough room. Besides, I've never been to Houston. Have been to Houston Street in NYC - we pronounce it HOWSTON.
