What's that going to do? I mean, I'm all for telling off the politicians that represent me (fucking Mike Johnson can eat a dick) but the GOP genuinely doesn't care what their voters have to say. They locked down their vote by making it us vs them. Their own voters could tell them they're doing horrible and they'd still get those votes without changing anything because conservatives have been successfully brainwashed into thinking democrats are all evil.
GOP politicians are in a position where they can literally just laugh in your face about a complaint like this..
Or lose their salaries, as an employee who could have been doing campaign work is now stuck sifting through mail all day.
It makes them happy, as clearly their propaganda is working.
