Once again Mr. Fleischmann demonstrates his lack of ethics and courage--rubber stamping anything the carnival barker con man POTUS says.
As usual Fleischmann is either unable to recognize, or too impotent to articulate, the insidious dangers posed by the stupidity of MAGA. Trumps actions are destroying the warm relationships we've historically had with our northern and southern neighbors. Once that trust is gone, we will not soon regain it, and that will come at a significant cost to us.
I'm not a fan of Bob Corker. But, he at least had the courage to push back on Trump. Would that the Republican Party still had a few members with Corker's modicum of backbone! Clearly Fleischmann will not be one of those.

Conservatives believe in a strict interpretation of the Constitution and laissez-faire economics. What we have in the Republican Party isn’t conservative, it’s white Christian nationalism.
Tariffs are a regressive tax that hurts the working poor and middle class. It’s going to be a long bumpy ride for the next few years

Um - Corker wanted to be Trumps Vice president and when he didn’t get the job he suggested Ivanka should get it if memory serves then later he got on Trumps bad side and did not run for reelection cuz he didn’t wanna get made fun of by Trump.
All these republicans are trash. Always have been.

Remember that one time he thought he had a chance at being elected speaker, and then Trump posted a screenshot of his texts begging for Trump's endorsement? That told me everything I ever need to know about Fleischmann.

Fleischmann is a terrible representative. He does not care about gun violence in our communities. He is rank and file Republican. He's completely dismissive of issues that actually help our citizens.

We've known for years that Chucky is nothing but a Trump stooge. He was still vocally cheering Trump after January 6.

As a Tennessee business owner who relies heavily on steel imported from Mexico and Canada - fuck this guy and every trump supporter out there. If this shuts my business down I’ll fucking remember who to blame.

If I were playing a game of word association, Fleischmann's face alone would make me think of the word 'felching,' every single time. Despise that man.

Fleischmann has been in office for 14 years and will be there as long as he wishes b/c of the bozo electorate in this barely-good-enough-state of Tennessee and specifically 3rd district.
When are y'all gonna get used to what this guy is? He's the ulitmate republican shill, regardless of which way the GOP wind is blowing, and which era this shameful party is operating in.

Chuck doesn't care about you, me, or what's best for the country. He cares about keeping his job. Which he is completely unqualified for. If this man though eating cat turds while wearing a ballerina outfit is what would keep him in office, he'd belly up to the litter box.

It's perfect that Chuck's height puts him at perfect ass-kissing level.

Mexico folded in about 36 hours **and** sent 10,000 of their own troops to help secure the border from their side. Panama is dropping the agreement with China and entering into one with the US.

Politicians just want to hold onto power. If you can ride another persons coat tails and let them be the lightning rod while you hide in their shadow then you do that. When the ride is over they will emerge how upset they were and that they tried to resist from the inside.
Let this be a lesson and stop voting for incumbents. Party affiliation means nothing as they both will screw you over in a millisecond. If they have incumbent on the ballot vote for anyone else. Make everyone a one term politician.

Just out of curiosity define “MAGA”? And is there a difference between “MAGA” and a Republican or are you pigeonholing everyone who would lean right whether center to slightly to extreme? Serious question not trolling or trying to start anything I’m just genuinely curious. And don’t mean to high jack your post but others can answer to though I’d like to hear your definition I guess since it was your post. And if you don’t care to answer no problem. TY
