The districts in Kansas have been gerrymandered so that republicans can't lose.

Dunno how long Stockholm syndrome can prop up this dystopian experiment.

People of Kansas have been losing though beginning with their schooling, yet they don't realize this.

Let's hope this clown loses his seat. Doesn't seem to understand the "represent" part of representative.

Nonetheless, he is compensated through state funds and regardless of his assertion that he is "paying his own way" the job requires, or at least it's supposed to require that he represent his constituents regardless of their income level. But, that's not what this grinning asshole has "gone there" for if his mission is to reduce taxes on wealthy businessmen such as.......himself.

If you are rich enough to "pay your own way" and still have a very comfortable life at the level you are currently taxed, YOU HAVE NO NEED OF THE MONEY AND SHOULD THEREFORE......STFU. At that rate your ideology is pointless and ENTIRELY SELF-SERVING to the people you are supposed to represent.

But, of course you will never get that through the thick skull of any conceited, arrogant, holier than thou, "I am so much more deserving than you." Republican.

I suppose those who cannot figure out how to make any money in the easiest place in the world to make it will whine forever about people who can.

It's the Democrat base.

Is making money the most important thing in life?

Is it better to be buried in a gold coffin?
