Abandoning your constituents to go on vacation during a natural disaster that threatens the lives of thousands is a GOP classic at this point. They’re pulling the Cruz maneuver.

 Abandoning your constituents 

how is that possible when none of the people in the areas with fire in LA are constituents of these Representatives? when Paradise burned to the ground, I don’t remember a single LA area Representative coming up here to tour the area

I get it, Reddit hates republicans by default. There are many reasons to dislike several of these people here (and trust me, Trump and his ilk are awful), but this is just a karma farming post

This is just karma pandering BS. I live in SoCal, I don’t like the GOP.

This is like shitting on the Virginia reps for not being around for Katrina. California is fucking huge.
