Chaos for the House Republicans. While I don't necessarily endorse this upheaval, in a way it's a good thing. Kicking the budget can down the road by passing one continuing resolution after another is keeping the country is a constant state of uncertainty. This won't get the problem solved soon but I think it's the first shot fired in a long war that hopefully gets results. 

I'm not a Matt Gaetz fan but he made a good point. The House went on a six-week vacation before returning to Washington to kick the can down the road again. It's a shame we can't unite as a country to make our representatives do their jobs.

Matt Gaetz is known for bringing wrestling belts to his campaign appearances and rallies. Trump is now busy making courtroom appearances instead of campaign appearances. The people have enough bread at the moment. Gaetz is now the circus.
