A point that doesn't get stressed enough

Is that the quality of the people that are elected to serve in Congress by the Republican Party over the past twenty five years has been on a steep decline. The buffoonery of the clapping just witnessed when Ted Cruz rose to challenge the electors from Arizona is evidence enough. The party which couldn't even come up with a party platform in 2020, that has no legislative agenda, that is incapable of being a ruling party is an albatross around the neck of these United States.

Especially in the Senate....Senators use to be more colloquial and prestigious, now most Republican Senators are as dimwitted as their House counterparts..
