Sen Orrin Hatch is delusional. He believes 40 years of "service" was a good thing, and that he was somebody, and that he accomplished something.
Nonsense.
It is one of the most self-centered do-nothing, alleged ruling bodies in the Western world, full of pompous self-satisfiers, mostly rich, over-whelmingly white, who prowl the halls making deals, cashing in from corps and lobbyists, all the while forgetting about who sent them there, if indeed they ever cared in the first place.
We Deplorables are to blame largely, for this mess. We don't care who we send to Washington, nor how many times we do so. Term limits are in our hands, people.
Two terms, and go home. No retirement, no lifetime medical, just go do your bit and come home. Representation was never supposed to be a profession. These windbags can't praise themselves enough.
Take a look around at the shape our beloved country is in.
Crumbling infrastructure: roads, trains, electrical grid, air traffic control, all in dire need of replacement for the 21st century.
Everyone seems to have a gun, but no impulse control.
Everyone seems to have a cell phone, but no social manners.
Someone look up, please, the last time Congress passed a budget on time. Their latest evil habit is to kick that can down the road every time they come around a curve. This is NOT why we overpay them, and over-benefit them.
The DEFENSE budget is two-thirds of one trillion dollars. Think about that while you drive on crumbling roads over rusted bridges to worn-out school buildings through delapidated neighborhoods, where hope was abandoned decades ago.
Our involvement in the Afghan war is now 16 years and no end in sight. Prepare to send your children off to war, because they will be going.
The nuclear clock is a half-second from midnight, the lessons of 72 years ago apparently forgotten.
Best news is, almost 4 dozen are stepping down this year.
It's a start.
Go home Hatch. And stay there.
