My return to conservatism was gradual. Before I became a Republican again I was a grassroots member of the DFL. Hardly a jump to the extreme right. No, your brother and I not a "matched set."

Tell us all what was so terrible about the DFL.
I just looked at your VoteSmart profile and found ZERO about your affiliation with them. Was this during the Paul Wellstone era?

Pelosi was nominated Speaker in 2006. In 2010 that ended and she did not get the gavel again until 2018. Whoop-dee-do.
Obamacare passed because healthcare had gotten so bad that NOBODY in their right mind wanted things to continue on the current path, but guess what?
We're back or very nearly back to the way things were prior to the ACA now, thanks to TrumpCare!

"Another customer said she was reminded of the John Grisham novel The Rainmaker, in which an insurance company has a policy of rejecting every claim."


Should Republicans BE ABLE to repeal something that contradicts the will of the people, the voters?
Is that part of what you want to tear down?

Bryan Bjornson's Issue Positions (Political Courage Test)

Quote
Bryan Bjornson has refused to provide voters with positions on key issues covered by the 2016 Political Courage Test, despite repeated requests from Vote Smart and voters like you.

This was very interesting...you HOLD NO POSITIONS, none which are discernible, because you apparently refused to provide any answers.

All I did was Google your name, in an effort to FIND your positions.
