(22,156 posts)every month. We should but then we would end up giving the dumbest politician of the day before too long, and then the dumbest politician of the hour, etc. Kind of reminds of the 'Are you smart as a 5th grader' etc.
The skill sets of these poorly educated persons is scary indeed. Is this what we want to run this Country?

(205,845 posts)She's also been repeatedly fined for refusing to wear a required mask when entering the House Chambers. I read that they've also been considering placing her in an "isolation booth" when she has to be present to vote. Otherwise, she no longer serves on any committees - she's so disruptive, she's been removed. And here I thought that my current Rep had to be the worst...

(22,156 posts)in getting any legislation passed, that she is too incompetent to even know what to do. People will get tired of her antics for they get old really quickly. I see that w/ rump now a days. You can only mouth off about a thing so much, and after a while, no one is listening anymore, kind of like the Boy who cried Wolf!
Take care!
Oh, by the way, my rep is Josh Hawley, who I think is one of the worst reps and I certainly can't stand him.

(205,845 posts)But then I'm likely misunderestimating the beliefs and priorities of the majority of her constituency who elected her to begin with - she didn't suddenly become this way when she arrived in D.C.
And you have my sympathies for your Rep as well! I really don't get it at all. But I can also identify - mine is Elise Stefanik.

(22,156 posts)likely, he probably has her name scribbled on a note pad somewhere (among other idiotic republicans). The list of dumb republicans or ignorant republicans is getting rather long.

(51,624 posts)The GQP never seems to run out of the most stupid people to run and win office. Is there a "low IQ" requirement to be a member of the cult? Anyone with an IQ of around 80 or lower makes you a Repub candidate in any state? An IQ of over 90 makes you ineligible. The GQP has such high standards.

(3,401 posts)And the media is making a lot of fuzz about it, it is free advertising.
Stupid people think their stupidity is great, they are owning the libs...trump is not charismatic, his speeches are of 5th grade level, incoherent, evil, but his target is just like that, there is a system they have elaborated, due to trump's natural stupidity, but its working.
Here we all are talking about Greene's stupidity...I hate to say it, but she must be thinking "mission accomplished".
I wish the media would stop talking about trump, if they did he would loose strength, people would begin to ignore him. Yes, you have to talk about his crimes, but ignore whatever he says, like supporting the truckers in Canada...stuff like that.
