Since winning back a narrow majority in the House last fall, Democrats have struggled for a mission statement for what they stand for other than to obstruct Trump and create endless litigation, the latest being to manufacture a roadblock which they now call a "Constitutional Crisis" as if somehow they are mere spectators to the event.
But finally, Democrats have agreed on a new mission statement: They all agree that they simply cannot make ends meet earning $175,000 a year for essentially 9 months a year work, so despite their rampant unpopularity, lack of anything constructive they ever do to show for themselves and the fact that people everywhere are really struggling unable to simply vote themselves a raise, it looks like they could give themselves a raise as high as up to over $200,000 a year.

Maybe if the final decision was to go to a ballot of the taxpayers, they might have a bit more incentive to actually get some things done.
