Calling them "lawmakers" at this point seems like a stretch given our laws are now almost exclusively dictated via social media/EO by the executive. I wish I was kidding. Maybe "former" or "legacy" lawmakers is more accurate?

In a nutshell, what they are good at is hiding the consequences of their fuckups. They are blessed with (among other things) unbelievable luck that never seems to run out.
