Democrat Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland forcefully and angrily said he had absolutely no confidence in Rep. Chaffetz (R-Utah) to investigate fairly as the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. He described the investigation into President Trump’s ties to Russia a matter of “saving our democracy.” He made the comments Thursday on CNN to Wolf Blitzer.
Blitzer asked Cummings in reference to being the ranking Democrat on the oversight committee, “do you have confidence that the chairman will work together with you and pursue the issues that you’re concerned about, we’re talking about Jason Chaffetz?”
“No.” He responded loudly. “No. I do not.”
“Because we were presented with 43 items with regard to what we will be looking at over the next two years,” Cummings responded. “Democrats asked to look at the emoluments clause, and a number of everything, and on a party vote, every single thing we wanted to do, to look at, this situation with President Trump and all the conflicts of interest and other things, they voted down.”

To think that this is the best that Maryland Democrats can offer is so very sad. Enough with the race-baiting, fist-pounding, and empty rhetoric spouting foolishness. Find a representative that does something other than express baseless outrage at every turn.

ReplyDeleteIn my lifetime I have never seen the "Democrats" look so bad! The accuse the republicains of being corrupt and not following the rule of law but don't practice what they preach. To a person the ethics and total lies that come from the democrats is disgraceful. You have crooked Hillary, Mr. sex offender Bill Clinton. Obama who will go down in history as our worst president. The democratic party has lost all creditability and they are embarrassing themselves on a daily basis. Sore loser who can't accept the fact that the American people have spoken and will no longer accept their form of government and politics.
