Confront the Congressman Day

Kadizzle has long been disgusted with North Dakota Congressman Kevin Cramer. Cramer was an early supporter of Trump. This morning Kadizzle got up and decided to attend Kevin Cramer's coffee meeting in Mandan. Kadizzle prepared seven questions to hand out to people attending the meeting. The seven questions were things people could ask Kevin Cramer.

Kadizzle got to the meeting early and handed out the question list to 35 people. Prior to the meeting Kadizzle had a chance to personally speak with Cramer on several subjects. Cramer was polite and listened, but gave all the pet answers. On the border wall Cramer said spending 21 billion was fine with him.  Kadizzle asked him if the money could be better spent to help the states with schools and other problems. Cramer said that is a state problem.

Kadiizzle spoke with Cramer about the need to raise the Social Security Cap.  Cramer said it could be raised a little and that would solve the problem. Kadizzle suggested it be taken off low income people and adjusted so the wealthy would pay more.  Cramer had no  comment to that suggestion.  Cramer gave the pat answers and made it clear he was very much in favor of protecting the rich.

So the meeting began and some poor young woman about 25 crying told her story about the birth of her child with severe health problems.  The woman managed through her tears to explain the financial predicament they were in.  She indicated that she followed the Republican rule to carry the baby to term.  Of course Cramer gave a wishy washy non answer.

Cramer refused to admit that the repeal of Obamacare would result in a massive tax break for the wealthy.  At this point Kadizzle got infuriated and asked Cramer why the wealthy could not be taxed to pay for the predicament of the poor woman who spoke earlier.  Someone in the audience said "Tax me" .   Kadizzle got up and told Cramer something to the effect that he would be willing to pay taxes to help the people with no health care.  Cramer would not answer yes or no if repealing healthcare was a break for the rich.  Kadizzle got carried away and walked up to give Cramer money to help the woman.  Cramer would not take the money so Kadizzle tried to shove it in his pocket.  Prior to all this some guy who supported Cramer came up and tried to choke Kadizzle as he asked a different question.  That man was escorted out by the police.  After Kadizzle tried to place the money in Cramer's pocket he was escorted out by the police. The police did the right thing and Kadizzle probably did the wrong thing.  In the end Kadizzle hopes Cramer learned that snowballing the simple minded is no longer going to be as easy as it used to be.  All is well that ends well. Of course the Kadizzle family thinks Kadizzle had a crazy spell again, but Kadizzle feels if we can have a mentally ill president, the Kadizzle family can afford it's own mental case.
