    Why wait til 2027? If I was wealthy and 85, I’d be chillin’ and hanging out with my grandkids. These ghouls just love staying in politics til they croak. There’s a non-zero chance she makes it to 2027.

      I’ll never understand that either. She and her husband are worth 100s of millions of dollars.

        Have you seen the Congressional schedule? They get more days off than kindergarten. The hardest part of their job is trying to stay awake during long filibusters.

          Do they even do real filibusters anymore? The only recent ones I can think of were symbolic only and didn’t require a vote at the end

        They’re not in it for the money. They’re in it to always be making more money.

          Once you get enough money, the point is prestige and dynasty.

      Yes but does the flesh of innocent children taste as good when you didnt personally authorize the fascist coup that murdered their parents?

        If I’m 85 years old and have hundreds of millions of dollars I’m not waiting until my term ends, I’m getting tf out of there

        If I magically became that rich you would never again find me doing anything that could even be misconstrued as “a job.” I will be on the beach in Spain with my gorgeous spouse.

          Terms are only two years for congressional representatives. She got reelected last year and her term started this year.
