MAGAAAAAAAAAAA Hero of the stupid’s new PAC

So creative
 
It was ALREADY Make America Great Again, Again since trump stole it from Reagan.
 
Trump's way too old. And Pelosi too. And Mitch McConnell. And Joe Biden.

Should I continue?
 
The Save America PAC that raised 100 mil in the first half of the year wasn't enough?

Has he spent it all on legal fees?
He doesnt pay his lawyers but perhaps he managed to make some loan payments

You could if you wanted to. Start with this guy:

Eighty-eight-year-old Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley is running for re-election in Iowa​

We're being ruled by a bunch of elderly sociopaths who like seeing their names in the news. I fear it may be too late to save our Republic as founded.

The Republic was founded on the notion that congressional experience was a good thing.

Doom and gloom because we have some old people in Congress?

Old agers are one thing but Trump, Biden and Pelosi? There has to be a limit.

I didn't know how old Pelosi was...wow. Lol

She actually gets around pretty good for her age. She could probably run circles around Biden.

Personally, I would like SOME younger blood in Congress but I was simply contesting the statement that the founders would not support older ages in Congress.
 

The founders never envisioned professional career politicians making 50 year careers getting rich bilking the taxpayers out of millions of dollars. You think Ocasio-Cortez is a millionaire yet? If not it won't be long.

It's called term limits, c'mon man!
 
I haven't checked but hasn't AOC made her tax returns public? I believe she is far from a millionaire.

I agree the founders would not want politicians to make money off the people in the form of taxes but that isn't what we are talking about and is a seperate issue.

From federalist paper 53 by James Madison...

"[A] few of the members of Congress will possess superior talents; will by frequent re-elections, become members of long standing; will be thoroughly masters of the public business, and perhaps not unwilling to avail themselves of those advantages. The greater the proportion of new members of Congress, and the less the information of the bulk of the members, the more apt they be to fall into the snares that may be laid before them," wrote Madison."


So as you can see, and to put it in today's terms, the founders thought it unwise to have a bunch of n00bs in Congress.

This is a little off topic but I have a question.

What makes wanting comgressional term limits different then wanting to be a gun grabber?
 

The founding persons certainly put term limits on the president so there that. Why not the rest of them who get into office and only care about two things:

1. Getting re-elected
2. Having lobbyists for mega corporations out to a nice brunch.

Presidential term limits came in in 1947 pretty sure the founding fathers were all dead by then
 
Personally I think there are too many people that are too young in Congress.

Yep. Those are certainly issues.

I believe it is up to the voters to take care of those issues.

Changing the constitution is not the way.

I don't want to look it up right now but I had read a pew research poll a couple years ago that stated 88 percent of registered voters support congressional term limits...perhaps the only issue the right and left both largely agree on....yet these same 88 percent that support term limits for congress keep voting the same politicians into office.

It is not a word I get to use often but that is paradox.

Oh yeah, people finally wised up in 1947. They saw the danger of FDR cult of personality politics.
 
Expert marketing, just update with a Sharpie!

 
Trump did drop out of the Forbes 400 richest people. He needs to sucker the stupids to pad his wealth.
 
a fool and his money are soon parted.....
From Forbs just today. Trump has been downgraded. He lost roughly 2 billion over the course of the presidency. Had he put all his assets in the blind trust and invested it (Like he was advised to) he would have increased his wealth by a lot.

So much winning. The guy is a complete moron. A public loser. Trump holds the record for losing more money that any business man in America's history.

Yea, I wana vote for that guy !!
