Stupid Things Republicans Just Said

Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) accuses House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) of “defending Soleimani”. How stupid can McCarthy be. We don’t think anybody in the entire House, either Republican or Democrat, would even hint at such a thing. Attacking a fellow congressperson in such a way is complete ignorance and disrespectful. Sure, go ahead and vote no, Kevin MacCarthy, but don’t divide the nature by your incendiary remarks. ¹

McCarthy seems ready and willing to hand over the Constitutional authority that gives exclusive powers to the Congress. McCarthy seems to want to take a seat somewhere in the White House rather than the Capital. The current resolution simply enforces the Congressional Research Service’s statement, “Constitutional Authority Statements and the Powers of Congress: An Overview”. ² McCarthy simply seems to be a puppet of the President.

Lindsey Graham (R-SC) says “… you’re empowering the enemy” if you vote for the resolution. ³ We are not sure if Lindsey Graham ever read the resolution. ⁴ We can just see the image of Graham bowing down to King Trump as the nuclear button is pushed.

Doug Collins (R-GA) said “They [Democrats] are in love with Terrorists”. ⁵ You must be kidding! You must be stupid to think such a thing.
