Louisiana's Little Boy Leaders In The U.S. House of Representatives.

 The republican party controls the U.S. House of Representatives in congress with a majority vote and its top leaders are Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House and Steve Scalise, Majority Leader of the House from Louisiana.  Yet, both have failed Louisiana and the country just recently threatening a government shutdown instead of taking care of the government's business by introducing a clean bill that could pass muster and avoid a government shutdown, they bowed down to convicted criminal Trump's demand to include in the bill language about migrant voting that was not necessary and as a result the bill failed.  

It not only failed to obtain the majority GOP party vote, it failed to obtain the democratic vote.  Johnson and Scalise knew the bill would fail but were too coward to face trump, the convicted criminal and sex abuser.  After the bill went down to defeat, Johnson introduced a cleaner bill minus the unnecessary migrant voting issue and the bill passed.  But Johnson and Scalise still could not obtain enough votes from the GOP to pass the bill.  They were saved by the SANE vote of the democratic party to avoid an unnecessary government shutdown.  Once again, it is a SANE democratic party that leads America in responsible governing.

The GOP under Trump has become such a CULT, Johnson and Scalise cannot even lead their own party with a majority vote.  They have accepted their CULT status, lack of leadership and courage and are at the mercy of Trump.  The willingness to submit a bill that they knew would not pass, wasted precious time in a government atmosphere of shutdown just to please an unfit Presidential nominee.  It is a clue as to how pitiful Johnson, Scalise and Trump are as individuals and elected officials. 

Louisiana's delegation in congress are a disgrace to the state and America's political institutions.  It is the very first time a major political party has supported and endorsed for President, a nominee who is a convicted criminal, sexual abuser, fraudster, and a former President who committed a traitorous act sending a violent mob to the nation's capitol in order to overturn a legitimate Presidential election.

The American voters must reject Trump and his CULT in the November elections and keep America the Beautiful, Beautiful.
