According to Oxford evil is: “a manifestation of profound immorality and wickedness, especially in people’s actions.”

If this wasn’t a slow news day, I doubt I’m writing about anything having to do with Representative Ralph Norman (Republican, South Carolina) especially about a speech that he gave on the House floor 5 days ago. Not that he’s not important or anything, but I’m simply not very familiar with the man.

Representative Norman talked about what’s going on the country today (as he sees it) and described it as evil. Representative Norman mentioned:

take home pay not going up

illegal immigration

the Americans being freed in Iran, in exchange for 4 billion dollars

the national debt

what he called as lawlessness and not giving any real examples of that.

And then Representative Norman gets into if the government is not funded the way he wants it too, it should be shut down. I guess there goes any case that Speaker McCarthy might have to try to blame The White House and Senate Democrats for any potential government shutdown that might happen next month.

Ralph Norman has been in the House of Representatives since 2017. That means he was a member of Congress for most of Donald Trump’s presidency, after winning a special election to the House in June, 2017. But he waits until Joe Biden to become President of the United States, until he starts complaining about the national debt. Unless he’s given speeches about the dangers of a rising national debt while Donald Trump was President, that I’m simply not aware of.

MAGA Republicans talking about the need for fiscal responsibility, is like hearing serial murderers talk about the need for a death penalty, but not for themselves. Or alcoholics talking about the need for sobriety, but just not for themselves, because they’re currently drunk and don’t know any better.

The national debt went up 11 trillion dollars during the Trump presidency, in just 4 years. George W. Bush needed 8 years for the debt to go up 7 trillion and Barack Obama needed 8 years for the debt to go up 9 trillion. I would love to know who MAGA Republicans actually believe they’re fooling. Wait, I got it: they’re voters. Of course!
