    There are 100 people in the US in the Senate. How many single moms are there? If there are more than 50 (or less, but with more than 50 combined kids), then that is costing the taxpayers more money.

    Regardless of how dumb the argument is, you might want to check that math.

    Per Senator. So, 5000 total.

    You're being intellectually dishonest again. I know you are smart enough to know that number is stupid AF. You just posted it because the dumbasses on the board may believe it. The question I have for you is how does it feel that a large part of the party you are affiliated with are dumb as rocks.

    Are you one of those people that would pretend to be liberal to sleep with hot chicks?

    I don't think a large part of the Republican party is dumb at all. They have great intuition and are self-sufficient, honest, God-fearing people. Democrats on the other hand have vast swaths of voters who just want free stuff and live in school districts where 90% of kids fail to meet standards for reading and math... and then there's the obvious crime problem...

    GOOD DAY

    You are smart enough to know that crime rate is directly correlated to poverty. You also probably know that murder rate spiked during Trump's first term since you are smart.

    The party of hypocrisy.
    Makes sense because they are mostly a religion of hypocrisy also.

    in 2015/2016, during his book tour for his best seller "Hillbilly Elegy",
    JD Vance referred to Trump as
    • America's Hitler,
    as well as describing the trust fund baby as America's cultural heroin

    I can't stand Vance It's no wonder he has the lowest ratings of any VP in history. He's a liar and hypocrite, who wears his brown shirt proudly now. The guy has no balls to stand up to Trump now. He's a little puppet for the old lying geezer himself, just a little pawn and echo chamber willing to kiss the ground the fat orange turd walks on.

    Let's talk about Texas

    New Texas redistricting plan could achieve Trump's aims :

    According to Dave Wasserman, an analyst with the Cook Political Report, the proposed new map could help Republicans achieve a gerrymander of 30 Republican districts, to eight for Democrats. Currently, Republicans hold 25 of the state's seats.

    It's a joke. Libertarians don't get jokes or social policy because they don't understand nuance.

    OK, since the 50's. His approval rating is around 41%. I don't see it climbing up as long as he kisses Trump's boots like a good little loyal brown shirt hypocrite.

    That being said, he is one of the most disliked men to assume that position, especially with women. I don't think he'll get any bonus points from the younger generation with his stance on climate change and coddling to the fossil fuel industries.

    True, but with the path Trump's on, and with JD as the puppet, he could might be on the declining path of Nixon's VP. He's stopping to new lows saying how Trump has been nothing but transparent about Epstein. :eek:
