you could almost make a movie with all these macho tough guys fighting it out over fuck knows what whilst the world burns. One of those dark comedies like you get on netflix. The sort of films these tough guys have probably watched and thought were pretty cool.

yeah...and what were those policies? we won't put up taxes, but we're shiny and new.

the policies weren't supported, they then cease to matter, because you only get to change anything if you win the vote.
