Anyone else get the feeling he’s been compromised?

He's very dependent on donations from the banking industry, it's all there on OpenSecrets. Both NY senators voted to end cloture because that's where wall street is. Gillibrand seems to be avoiding criticism for some reason but it's the same exact story for her. Wall street was already suffering from the Trump tariff decline and couldn't take any more from a shutdown.

Well he's a zionist. And the zionists bought both parties but preferred trump in power. So yeah.

You mean like recently? No. It's been a lot more than a feeling since 2016, for me at least. A known fact I guess you could call it?

I felt that about the lot of them since the state of the union address.

they're giving off strong "fuck you, got mine" vibes.

I doubt any of them realize the following though.

What do you get if you take everything away from a person?

you get what you fucking deserve.
