    “good people” meaning rich folks that care about enriching themselves.

    If you really want to run for office, you do it for your city, county, state, and country not for $.

    I like someone take that running for office shouldn’t be like a job, it should be like jury duty. You should be dreading it and not want to do it. Those that do are power hungry fucks and should be barred from office.

    Mike Johnson is a weasel that is gladly handing over the power of Congress to Trump. He’s too stupid to see what that would mean.
