I wish republicans would spend at least half as much time doing their jobs as they do looking for someone or something to blame. The projection in their words blaming Biden for all that is wrong with our country is mind numbing. You nailed it when you wrote they have no ideas and no interest in governing. As for the voters, when will they ever learn 🎶

Well you can't blame the drafters of the Constitution or the 14th Amendment for having a Bozo in office. They foresaw the problem and dealt with it. I don't understand why Democrats don't point out every single day that this clown isn't eligible to be President. How about for the next bogus executive order Trump signs, somebody argue he isn't eligible to be President and has no authority to issue it.

"No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

Let me clarify. If you are an insurrectionist, you can't be President unless 2/3 of each branch of Congress says you can be. The reason for this Amendment is that insurrectionists have a habit of trying to destroy and take over the government and they can't be trusted to hold the office. Sound familiar? Anyone we know?

What's the point of having a Constitution if you give it the same force and effect as the toilet paper hanging in your bathroom?

You nailed it, Barry. Republicans have no workable/acceptable solutions, so they whine and blame everything on someone else. Squirrel, squirrel!!!!

My fearless prediction: We will soon witness Republican legislators caterwaul,

"Well, I didn't vote for THIS part of the bill! We had to take the bad with the good in a bill that, overall, Makes America Great Again!"

I think Trump would love to use an auto pen but his stupid sharpie marker won’t fit in it.
