      Do you have a quote where he says something along the lines of “With this act of protest I am attempting to become the new minority leader?”

      If not then you can’t assume that and you know it. Of that’s what he meant then he should say it using big boy words.

        You don’t really understand how politics works do you? If you are waiting for politicians to SAY exactly what they mean, you are going to be very confused at what is happening around you.

          Trump said exactly what he would do and then he did it.

          Why should we suck up to politicians who are compulsive liars?

          Im sorry you’re losing me.

          So politicians always lie and are not interested in helping people, so the guy who wasted a day of speech for literally nothing was a hero?

          Is war peace? Is freedom slavery?

            Yes, it was pretty stunning how he both negotiated peace between Russia and Ukraine and lowered grocery prices on day one.

            Yeah, still waiting on that perfect health care plan.

            I’m bored with your silliness.

              You missed the part about tarrifs and economic turmoil.

              You also missed the part where Booker didn’t say he was trying to become the new minority leader.

              That’s ok at least I’m paying attention so I can correct you.

              I’m bored with your grateful slave mentality. Have fun depending on people who sold you out.

                Nothing you’re saying makes sense, and I have no motivation to figure it out. Go away, please.
