@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett How can you support trump who wants to run the country w/o oversight?
You two probably supported trump’s national emergency-you gave up Congress’s power to make appropriations. Are you just too lazy to do your job, not understand the constitution, not understand checks &balances?

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett I look at the Repub party of today and you make me wonder what values you want your children/steps to seek in their elected officials.
Do you want them to look for a president that lies on an average of 10 times a day? How about one who calls others names on a regular basis? (2)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett How about a president who makes foreign policy via Twitter and not taking advice from his experts?
I’m wondering about the whole GOP whose silence makes it apparent that the brutal murder of Khashoggi is less important than the $$$/resources that Saudi Arabia has.

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett How proud are you and your comedy partner of NEVER holding trump accountable for ANYTHING? You haven’t done your job!(Emoluments, paying off Stormy, declaring a national emergency when if there is one, is one of trump’s own making,-to name a few)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett trump’s “America First?” trump says this means “make in America by Americans & purchased by Americans.” The trumps don’t! They have many (most?) of their products made overseas & purchase many items outside of US (Maga hats, flags etc). Do the trumps follow this slogan? No! (5)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett Does that make you proud that your president rattles off a mantra that he doesn’t live up to but publicly shames companies (like Harley) who choose to do what the trumps are doing? Is this the kind of people you want your children to emulate? (6) Shame on you!

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett How about the hate, racism, &fear YOUR trump has spread about immigrants in the US? If kids follow your leader there’s a chance they will fear people who are different from us-skin color or religion. How are your kids going to adjust to a global society? Don’t limit our kids! (7)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett trump says how dangerous immigrants are (trump lies). Then he hired immigrants to work for him illegally. He says he didn’t know -there’s been a data base available for years to check for immigrants eligible to work One more time trump wants all to follow laws but he doesn’t (8)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett H-2B visas for foreign guest workers is a legitimate way for jobs to be filled in the US. I don’t feel that billionaires requesting H-2B visas should even be considered! They (trump & his ilk) need to man up & offer a living wage. trump pays less per hr than the yr before. (9)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett I’m not even mentioning GOP tax scam, getting rid of Medicare/medicaid, Social Security, children in cages (i already requested the Hague invest Crimes Against Humanity& trump admin). I’m not mentioning abuse of trump foundation money or standing by Putin agnst his own USA .(10)

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett But I am asking which qualities you see in your president and the qualities you see in yourself and your fellow GOP members of Congress that you want your children to emulate and use to better America if they become the president, or a senator, or a representative in our govt?(11

@RepMarkGreen @RepTimBurchett We also don’t need a president like trump who rules like a dictator.
