Questions from the future?

[kentuck]

Why did they let it happen?

Why did the Congress do nothing? Why were they unable to communicate with each other as our country disintegrated?

Why did they ignore all the stark facts right in front of their noses? How could they overlook the mental illness, the racism, the dangerous division, the xenophobia, the criminality, the total unfitness for office?

Why did they do nothing to stop it? Why were they always waiting on the "next election" to provide answers? They were put in office to represent the people all the time, not just after the "next election".

How could the Congress go for months and years and not talk to each other?

How could they be so incompetent and neglectful of our Constitution?

1. I ask those questions every day.

How could experiments on caged immigrants be conducted while the population goes about it's business? How could thousands of CHILDREN be sent back unaccompanied across the border? How could our country elect a Nazi sympathizer?

The list is almost endless.

2. Power!

Plain and simple. Stupidity also played a part in the game.

3. Anything is worth lifetime judicial appointments for them.

... anything.

And they are succeeding wildly at it. They may lose the senate and the whitehouse because of it, but the GOP crowd is not worried about what comes after being a politician. Lobbiests get paid well...

4. Those questions...

Will only be asked if we win all the Dem seats possible in November. If we lose, nobody will be able to ask questions but everybody will be suffering the answers to them.
