I’d just relocate the capital to somewhere like Omaha or Tulsa, we’d see quickly how many of these geezers still want to be elected

Grand Forks.

Grand Forks.

Everyone would be falling all over themselves to get elected. They'd probably never want to leave.

To be fair, I don't have a lot of choices on where to live with my job, and commuting from Grand Forks to IND would be a pain.

If it's so expensive (it is) to live in DC and its environs, should the Congress build a dorm for its members so they can have an affordable place to live?

Grand Forks.

That's the thing. Goodbye term limits.

You never want to live where it's perfect. Otherwise you have nowhere to go on vacation.

Anyone who chooses to vacation in the Beetsville, Canada (Grand Forks) is dumb on the level of Trump

Is it really a good burn if you have to explain it in parenthesis?

I've always said Minnesota is a great place to live, not a great place to vacation.

Well you guys arent smart so more explanation is needed

Investigating the actions of a sitting president? Harassment. Investigating the actions of a private citizen for the 231st time? Righteous.

Its not "investigating" a sitting president. It's performing their Constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities.

Why do Republicans hate the Constitution so? Other than the 2nd Amendment of course.

There would be a large campus of 1070 apartments, one for the elected official and one for their spouses.

What about the mistresses?

That's why there are 1070 apartments and not 535. I thought the inference would be self-evident.

Ah, another head for AOC to live in rent free...

Nah, she's in Nancy's.

Yes, evindinced by all the Rs who can’t stop talking about her

How exactly does one "return" a donation that was probably already spent...

I dunno but Wal-Mart did the same thing so it must be a thing.

Better question though...why would MLB care about the Senate race in Mississippi? And why would a league that is very heavy in minorities support someone who has some race issues?

Might as well hedge your bets, since Citizens United says you can.
