Biden and Trump are turds: Biden is a jagged rock that causes pain, while Trump is a golden turd that makes you wealthy but leaves a foul smell.

You had me until the part where you inferred that it is a President…and not YOU…that makes you ‘wealthy’. 

🤦🏻‍♂️

Are you going to take personal responsibility for raining turds on the analogy?

We do have term limits…..WE THE PEOPLE.  We don’t exercise them because going against the grain and standing up is tough. Blaming is easy. Just look at this non wrestling topics board.  Blaming is very easy.

Not really.  Take for example the good senator Bob Dole.  The state of Kansas doesn't have a lot of power and influence only 6 reps in the House but of course 2 Senators.  But when you've got a senator with as much seniority and experience as Dole you'd be crazy to replace him with a new freshman GOP senator.  Look at where the state is now.  And when Dole was senator they weren't getting stupid wealthy off of serving.  Just like NIL its a completely different ballgame now regarding the money.  But if you had term limits, let's say two term for senate, then you are always looking for the new one to bring up and no state is getting these crazy out of balance old guy/gal power positions.

The vote them out “term limits” clowns are priceless.  There is a two term limit on the president. There should be a two term limit on the house and the senate.

I’m not saying I’m against term limits at all, I’m not. I’m saying we have the power and we don’t use it.

Who is this we, who had the power to vote Nancy P out in California?  

Perhaps it only takes a small southern California fly to guarantee such?  🙄

Term limits for Congress would be good but it takes an Constitutional Amendment to do that, and guess who is not going to do that?  Congress of course.     From the Constitution:

Article V


 

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall

propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the

legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for

proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and

purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of

three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof,

as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress;

Congress ain't supporting any of this.   And the states already tried to limit congressional terms and were turned away by SCOTUS.  So 2/3 of the states have to get a convention going and 3/4 of them have to agree on the amendment.   Tall order.

Rasta is right that we the people can change our Congress people anytime we want.   But we don't.   Hence all the incumbency.   The parties don't really give us that choice.   It will take independent folks to primary challenge the incumbents or party favorite.   But what sane person wants to do that.   Too much intrusion in to personal lives makes it not worth the effort.   Fundraising also makes it not worth the effort.

That question has been answered in this very discussion, and I don't believe you truly have to ask it, you know exactly who we is.

Or it might be easier if we demand passing term limits.

If congress won't support it we will just vote them out of office, its simple.  🙄

Somehow we got Presidential term limits thru the process but maybe we the people were smarter back then.  Is it ok to say maga to this?

A sign in my favorite pizza establishment says all politicians should be limited to two terms:  one in office and one in the pen.

The great state of Illinois follows that plan with most of their governors.

Well, the incumbent will get his party's vote mostly.   And the challenger will get his.   And usually the incumbent wins.   We need stronger challengers in the primaries that can oust those incumbents.   We have Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray.   Both should be out by now.   But we just voted back in Murray for her 5th or 6th term.   She is no good.   But no one will challenge her in the D party.   And being that WA is mostly D, she gets elected.
