What Is The Argument By The Repugs To Not Do Something That Eases Student Loan Debt?.......

is saying that the Democrats' efforts to ease student loan debt is nothing but wasting time on a political stunt.

Seriously. He just said that.

If marijuana legalization continues, you'll need someone to fill those for profit jails.
