3. What amazes me is the level of disdain this republican Congressman holds for his constituents.

He doesn't believe they have the ability to understand how badly that bill screwed them, and how it just got through the Congress by the smallest possible margins.
He obviously thinks they're all idiots; that he can tell them anything and they'll believe him. Maybe it's because he won in 2024 by a 20% margin, and he feels his seat is impregnable.
We'll see how he does in November.
