Who the hell would want them negotiating anything... bunch of fascist loud mouths. Nothing they do is good for the country.

Everything the Republicans come up with is just designed to screw over the poor and middle class. And yet plenty of them will vote Republican. I'll never understand Walmart Republicans who work for minimum wage.

I really don't get it.
