2019-01-04 | Ted Cruz introduces term limit bill that would end career in Senate - Business Insider

"It goes into effect after it's passed, so Cruz would still be able to run for two additional Senate terms."

'Ted Cruz introduced a constitutional amendment Friday that would restrict senators to two six-year terms. '

'I urge my colleagues to submit this constitutional amendment to the states for speedy ratification."', "Correction: This article previously stated that the amendment would end Cruz's Senate career after its current term."

'"The amendment, as drafted, would start the clock once it was ratified," Cruz told the Houston Chronicle. '

This still misses the rest of the traitors. Any senators on the way out, not planning on running for another term, will vote "yes", if only because they got theirs already.

Amendment, you mean. It can’t be a bill.

Fucker supports Israel and believes in their bullshit hoax's. I won't vote for him a second time. When he put out his video about all these attacks that Jews face in AMERICA, I was done. The dude has more than one face and the one your seeing now is the one he used to get elected. He uses a different one when it comes time to vote it seems.

As much of a piece of shit that he may be, would it not be good if it passed?

Or are you convinced that it's all a facade?

I said nothing of the legislation, just of the man.

It's like when the black caucus calls for a draft every time there is a skirmish in some Middle Eastern shit hole. They know it won't happen but it pisses off whitey and 'activist legislation' makes their constituents feel good.

Ok, so then we create lame-duck senators serving for 6 years with zero need to actually represent their constituents. What could possibly go wrong?

As opposed to powerfully corrupt senators serving for centuries with zero need to actually represent their constituents.

serving for centuries

Hyperbole. Dumb.

zero need to represent

They face re-election. That’s the check on power. The individual terms of 6 years need to be shortened if there is a two term maximum.

This is inconsequential. Even if it DID pass, you aren't voting your way out.
