I’ve spent a lot of my life in derp red Iowa. A lot of these people are farmers. They are reaping what they have sowed for DECADES. They always sided with the old goats like Grassley. Chuck has made a FORTUNE using every farm subsidy available. He’s as awful at Mitch McConnell
The look of disdain on this old fart’s face having to look down his parasite constituents, that he’s forgotten how to serve or represent. In 1981 this guy was ok…in 1981. Looking at you Iowa. WTF? You keep voting for these dustbags…
It doesn’t matter what you tell the press it’s how you vote in the Senate! If your supporting this administration with your vote then, your not listening to your constituents!
Man round and round you go. Just keep droning on and on until everyone in the room falls asleep. “I’ve said things to reporters that you won’t hear or read about” You guys need a whole new generation of lawmakers. Dinosaurs went extinct for a reason. ✊🇨🇦✌️
I was there today. That town hall doesn't show all the people who weren't let in. We were told he would come and address the overflow crowd, but they came back in and said, "actually, no."
Charlie Wishman of the AFL-CIO ran a brilliant town hall in our area.
This link is to the DMRegister's video of the entire town hall. The questioner was persistent and eventually got Grassley to say Trump is not above the law. I thought that was one of the most newsworthy moments but didn't turn up in clips I've seen going around. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8NeyYlhEyU
Another one who is mummifying on the hill. They have no concept of what living in reality it like. They simply will do ANYTHING to stay in the cozy DC bubble.
Exactly. They've got a nice paycheck, great benefits and an awesome pension to look forward to. Unlike the real people they were sent to D.C. to represent. They don't care. They. Don't. Care. And are not even pretending to anymore.
In defense of Senator Grassley, these people overwhelmingly voted for Shitler. They wanted this. They might not like it now. But this is what/who they voted for.
I watched a bit of it on YT. It was painful. He danced around questions, made it sound like the issue was the fault of the questioner, turned what should have been a yes or no answer into 3 minutes of political gibberish and was generally dismissive and disgraceful. I thought the crowd was
Unnecessarily polite to him after a point.He either doesn’t care about or doesn’t understand what Trump and Musk are doing.Occasionally it sounded like was on board with them. The DOE isn’t in the constitution. So what else does he want rid of? Should all the amendments be dropped?

Any ideologies that don’t align with conservatives are banned.
Anyone disagreeing with Iowa Republicans are effectively banned and pushed out of the state through legislation.
"The buck stops in the Oval Office" - bullshit.

Grassley is like that tough toe fungus that just won't go away.
Keep on keeping on.
