[roamer65]

6. Yup. Thx.

[herding cats]

Thom Tillis is the Jr Senator from there.

12. He'll probably finish it before the previews are over, too.

17. who pays for that popcorn??

21. :)

24. Are they claiming it on their taxes??

[gratuitous]

11. So bold!

Will Sen. Tillis actually come out and defend his Senate colleague, or is the ongoing debasement and humiliation of our country under his president just a spectacle for him?

[TheCowsCameHome]

13. Another use for barf bags.

[rock]

14. When we say, "Respect the office of the President"

We're talking to you, Trump!

[ffr]

15. Why don't all democrats do the same?

Nothing of importance is ever getting covered anyway. GOP stands for government out of business, which is what this nation is headed for soon.

[Midnight Writer]

23. Democrats were not invited. Meeting is for GOP only.

[ffr]

26. I know. I wa kind of thinking in general, for them to be in front of the press

this way.

16. Probably didn't want to spend top dollar for stale Trumpcorn.

[donotpissoffacow]

18. Congress doesn't pay top dollar for anything they consume

In the past...think Nixon era or earlier...even the cigarette machine in the basement of the Supreme Court sold packs for 1/2 the price anywhere else.
Duck a l'orange in the Congressional dining room was so cheap it was almost a give-away. (In those days you could sneak in and have lunch).

Congresspersons of both parties do not see themselves as sucking the teat of government. Their welfare is somehow different from the paltry, mean, sadistic treatment of people in need.
Can somebody tell me:
First, is there still a congressional dining room?
Second, how much do they pay for meals today?
Lastly, did they even pay for that popcorn? If so, how much?

Has anyone added up the cost of these small perks? Bet it would be enough to help Puerto Rico.

19. I would pay the GOP congressional chef to slip some ex-lax into the chocolate cake

and whatever else he has (preferably a secret, special ingredient shared by Putin's KGB chef) into the moron's extras large slice with two scoops.

20. Irony's still lost..

25. Speaking of popcorn ....I found this article very interesting
