The article critiques the Republican members of Congress for their unwavering compliance with Donald Trump, likening them to soldiers following orders without question. It highlights how leaders are willing to abandon previous stances on issues like deficits and foreign policy to align with Trump's agenda. The piece raises concerns about the erosion of constitutional balance of powers, illustrating how Trump's administration views Congress as a mere rubber stamp for decisions rather than an independent body tasked with checks and balances. It emphasizes the ignorance displayed by some Republican legislators regarding legislation hastily pushed through under Trump's influence.
Under these circumstances, even the brightest bulb would have missed a provision here or there. It's no wonder that some Republicans were embarrassed by their ignorance of the specifics of the legislation.
Republican representatives go through contortions to satisfy the bully in the White House: we hated deficits... but now we vote for adding trillions to the deficit.
