Hamilton said Congress should focus on clawing back Trump’s tariffs and ending the war with Iran.
Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton, who flipped deep-red Kansas for Democrats, said Sunday that he hopes to prioritize lowering costs for his constituents in the next Congress and that he would be “deeply disappointed” to spend two years investigating members of the Trump administration.
“The bigger priority for me, and I think for most people in America, especially people living paycheck to paycheck, is ‘please help us with the cost of living,’” Hamilton told NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
Specifically, he said the new Congress should immediately focus on ending the war in Iran and “claw[ing] back tariffs policies.”
“If I spent the next two years — my first two years in the Senate — in investigations, I’d be deeply disappointed. I want to get to work helping the people in my state and helping the people across the country,” Hamilton said.
Imagine if people could do 2 things at once. What a world we would live in, if that was true.
Yeah, but this is 54-56 senators and 250+ representatives. They can’t possibly do 2 things different things amongst all of them.
Does the American public have the attention to pay attention to two things at once? No.
Do you not remember that Trump was impeached and didn’t move the voting needle one iota? The American public does not care about anything other than their pocket book.
Didn’t move the voting needle, one iota, did it? Because as I recall, he lost the next election.
And won the one after that.
That’s not moving the needle, that’s shifting the goalposts
Lol, no it’s not.
You interpreted my comment as focusing exclusively on the single next presidential election, while I always meant the bigger picture.
The right wing and swing voters in America by and large did not care about impeachment. They voted in maga republicans after maga republican, and not only returned him to power, but also elected a majority Republican Senate and House that loudly and enthusiastically endorsed him.
Just saying “nuh-uh!” And then doubling down doesn’t make for a good counter argument.

Oh, I see, it’s my fault you can’t make a logical argument.
So you triple down with an ad hominem… At least you’re consistent
