Jim Jordan blames Democrats for 10 percent approval rating of Congress​

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) blamed Democrats for the approval rating of Congress falling to a mere 10 percent in a new Gallup poll.
Speaking to host Stuart Varney on Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Co.,” the Ohio Republican blamed the minority party for the record-long government shutdown in the fall. That stalemate stemmed from Democrats seeking an extension to pandemic-era subsidies offered under the Affordable Care Act, which is yet to gain passage.
Then, Jordan slammed the Biden administration’s immigration policies and criticized Democrats for holding off on funding the Department of Homeland Security.

J.J.,
If Republican leaders gain / retain office, fail to fulfill campaign promises, and blame the minority party,
what is the incentive for U.S. voters to vote Republican?

It's not only the familiar U.S. political duopoly, Democrats & Republicans.
We have 3rd party clatter too.

Discouraging.

Frantically searching for the adult in the room only to find the only ones in the room are infants in diapers,
dismal.

"TAXES SUCK"?!

Here's what one adult has to say about it:

"Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die. ... People want the public services. We can't have the public services without some level of taxation." United States House of Representatives Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank

Those that advocate for zero tax advocate anarchy.
Those that want their national sovereignty preserved, and reasonable controls on food and highway safety, are obliged to pay their fair share to maintain such government service.
Conservatives serve us well by articulating the benefits of smaller, less intrusive, less authoritarian government. BUT !
How can we sustain a viable government without taxation?

Grow up L.P.
