The House Speaker Election shows us that Republicans in the House are functioning within a dysfunctional control system based on division, threats and extortion while the Democrats are functioning within a sound system of Governance based on Unity and fundamental Principles of Democracy.
It’s been a while, but as a former Republican, today’s Republicans are a Complete Disgrace, while the Democrats in both the House and Senate make me Proud to be an American.
Today, I’m Proud to be a Democrat.
And it feels really good.
@Gleng2 It's about doing what's right and what's in the best interest of the American people. It's about upholding our principles and the constitution. It's about saving our democracy and honoring the oath of office. So you chose the party that continues to do just that!
Good for you! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 🇺🇸
For a while, I've been somewhere in-between, thinking I can vote for whomever I want and not be labeled - but after last week, I'm all in! And then Jeffries, wow!
It's official!
The Republican Party is a party of Complete Buffoons!
@Gleng2 You know whatever we do in life as a people, we will be labeled. So it doesn't matter how you label yourself. There will always be others that will attach their own labels to your name.
Don't be fooled! Do you! Be who you know you've been created to be and do what you know to be right and let everything else fall around you. They'll be ones "labeled" in the end.
Nice viewpoint. 👍
Three thumbs up! 👍 👍 👍
The official policy in the United States of America is ‘We don't negotiate with terrorists.’”
So how comes we allow those who lead insurrectionists a high level of control and decision making within our legislature?

The Republicans were never a perfect fit for me. I can easily say now that being a Democrat is fitting like a glove these days.
My case exactly. My father is a staunch Republican (I used to think it was just because he doesn't want to pay any taxes), and we've been in business together for years. He definitely had an influence on me early on.
My sister graduated from Bryn Maur University and was as liberal as they come until she started driving into work every day with my father listening to Rush. Now she's all in with the Repubs - go figure.
Parents can definitely have a strong influence.
This makes perfect sense to me.
My parents were both Republicans. My father passed just before the 2016 election, + I am grateful that he did not live to see the debacle of the Trump administration.
My mother is 95, still active + independent. She is disgusted by the current Repub party and their actions.
I have voted for and supported every Dem Presidential candidate since college. (My heart will always be with EUGENE McCarthy and Jimmy Carter.)
I don't understand how anyone can support Republicans.
