Are people like Rand Paul, Cruz, etc... just simply trolls?

[tenderfoot]

and shouldn't they be referred to as such?

Do they do anything?

1. They are turds.

They stink.

[Irish_Dem]

3. Seems like someone must be paying them to cause as much trouble as possible.

And Cruz thinks it will get him to the WH.

4. They feed their base the red meat it enjoys....apparently. Media should do a better job of

calling lies and liars such. But takes more than CNN and Rachel to do that and be meaningful. TV programs, newspapers and other media in the local voting areas of pols like this need to beat the drum because that is where it matters most. Making me happy in WA state calling Cruz et. al. trolls on CNN or wherever does nothing they have to worry about. Not a Twitter or Instagram person and that may be another route that more of their followers will see. Whether they will pay attention or care, thats another matter.

5. They wear their douchebag lables as a badge of honor.

If it irritates the left, they'll go in harder. Always.

6. They're treason weasals

Pretending to still support a democratic Republic while doing everything they can to support minority rule, obstruction and Trumpism. Their jobs, perks and power are obviously more important than the welfare of the American people. The trolling is just another tool to disrupt, deflect and deceive.

All of these people need to be booted.

7. I think they just want attention,

"Can't dazzle them genius, baffle them with bullshit."

Or something like that.

8. More like parasites if you ask me!

[Ocelot II]

9. Pretty much.

It seems that their primary motivation is owning the libs irrespective of any policy positions, which is basically the sort of things trolls do.Those two and their ilk belong under a bridge somewhere, being owned by a billy-goat.

10. The worse part is the people electing them just keep reelecting them..

Texas could have easily had Beto.

Kentucky could have had Rand Paul's neighbor, the only person who won't not put up with Rand sticky stuff, other then maybe their governor.

I really wouldn't mind these two and their trolling but the small states get way too many senators who just rubber stamp a GOP agenda without really thinking how this will affect all of America.

11. Professional trolls who do nothing to benefit anyone bit 5hemselves. They are indeed parasites.

[es466]

12. Why not? It worked for Trump.

[SWBTATTReg]

13. Since they pass, like only 1 bill in six months time, or some ridiculous amount of time, what else

are they going to do w/ their time? All they do is yap, moan, complain, etc. since that is all they know what to do. If you want my opinion, I think that they are lazy beyond belief, plus have a mouth to boot. They have no redeeming qualifications. Some other senators and house members, literally work their ass(es) off (pardon the language). They seem to be on top of things, spearheading critical bills, and such, and don't badmouth people.

14. Our taxes pay those pos

15. The GOP is the Party of Stunts. It is all they have.
