The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.
Well, I think Joe Biden has done what needs to be done in this country. We are so far behind and roads, bridges, dams, water systems, sewer systems. And every dollar we spend on getting infrastructure is a correction toward cleaner America.
The campaign financing is the root of all evil in Congress. It’s very, very bad. And we need to start with something very simple, be done with a simple majority.
You cannot have a democracy that record 60 percent of the vote on everything. And that’s what the Republicans have done. They have made a mockery of what the Senate should be.
