Of, by and for the party
Our forefathers set up a government that was “Of the People, For the People and By the people.”
We just witnessed an impeachment where House Democrats passed regardless of what the majority of people wanted. The Democratic mascot is the jackass, how fitting. They based most of their evidence on what Judge Judy wouldn’t allow in her courtroom.
Shame on them for continuing to serve their party over their responsibility of serving the people — which they have been doing ever since spoiled Donald Trump took office.
Regardless of your party, aren’t you tired of government “Of , by, and for the party”? Couldn’t the time lost in impeachment procedures been better used to serve our country and our citizens — especially since we all know what the Senate is going to throw it out?
Why can’t we get rid of all professional politicians and replace them with real people with set term limits of no more than two terms? Maybe then we can get Democrats and Republicans to act as a team and do what’s best for the people and not the just for the political party.
Let’s use our energy to demonstrate against the professional politicians and a useless impeachment!
