Capt Dwayne Conyers That whole party needs to get its act together period - that is the last thing that I'll say on politics today Dwayne - I really don't care for politics at all anymore - frustrated and disappointed in all of the elected officials - they aren't working anymore - they are compaigning non-stop - a waste of American's hard working tax dollars! Real shame!

I don't see Trump stopping after his campaign!?... Capt Dwayne Conyers.
The first year of clean up is always the worst year. Our capital is in Rehab! And we need to get rid of all the dealers playing against our country.

That's not their job - they are supposed to support and defend the Constitution. They are not supposed to be loyal and protect anyone especially if there is any violation of the Constitution or over step in powers.

I suggest that the executive and legislative need to start doing their job which they were elected to do and not worry about their own interests.

We wanted and voted for a non-politician.
Reminds me when I was a kid I asked my big brother for Good & Plenty candy. He insisted I would like Good & Fruity better. He was right.
Great points, SFC Kelly Fuerhoff !

When you have a President that is elected and he's a member of your party you should protect and support him. When your term is up that President is still around and when you run for re-election that President can easily mess your chances up.

SPC (Join to see) - I disagree. The job of Congress is to protect and support the Constitution. If the President is wrong, even if he is a member of your party, you tell him he's wrong. If a bill he proposes violates anything or won't work, you tell him. They don't owe anything to the President. That's why we have separate branches of government.

If the President is going after members of Congress because of personal vendettas there is a problem.

He is not talking Republicans overall. He is referring to the elected republicans that he ran for office alongside. They have stated for the past several years that if they got a Republican President in office they would pass all kinds of things to include the repeal of Obamacare and now as my grandmother used to put it, they are crawfishing on those statements. They should get behind him and get going...either pee or get off the pot!!!

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - I just used the health care bill as an example...I am with you on the don't vote for it if it isn't good. However, they all same the same song during the election and now they are changing verses. They were all behind him during the election and now they are bucking him at every corner. Get it together and lets get to work for America. It is not the republican they wanted in office IMHO and they will work with him when they have to but are going to make it difficult.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth - Maybe because they realize things now that they didn't before the election...perhaps.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - Maybe...I think they are all off the "party" wagon...I mean the election high they get from election years. I also think they have realized that he isn't truly a politician and they don't know how to deal with that...whatever, our elected leaders on both sides need to do a cranium rectal extraction and get to work for America...I am tired of politics...just do what is right.

Lol... he should ask John Boehner about how well House Republicans work together. Paul Ryan could give him stories as well (Freedom Caucus, anyone?)
