‘What Constitution is he reading?’ Republican’s interpretation of role of Congress stuns
Raw StoryA House Republican's interpretation of the constitutional role of Congress has left some stunned, after he suggested it is not a co-equal branch of government, but rather, intended to be supportive of "President Trump," and "implement" his agenda. "You know, our role is really to be more of a of a supportive board of directors, so we can implement what the American people voted for," he claimed, conflating two co-equal branches of government. Meuser also insisted Congress needs to pass a bill "with any revisions that the White House can live with — that President Trump can live with, because again, this is his plan that should be implemented." "Ah yes, who could forget Article 1 Section 1 of the Constitution, establishing a 'supportive board of directors,'" snarked Tim Mulvey, who has an extensive resume in government, including serving as communications director for the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol, and communications director for the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
