        No like I said I get the context but the generalized statement of saying a representative shouldn’t be told how to vote is both humorously incorrect and the exact problem of our current system. They are told how to, but by corporations and not constituents

          It’s not a generalized statement. It’s specific to the fact that Mitch McConnell no longer has the ability to think. He almost voted democrat and had to be told to vote republican. That is the context. Not the fact that republicans and a lot of democrats are bought and paid for by corporations and pedophile billlionairs which is very true.

      True, but fine, they should not be told how to vote by representatives of other citizens not the ones he is supposed to represent.
