When I get to Washington, Im going to make decisions with two documents in hand, he added. With the Bible in one hand and the Constitution in the other.
Following his remarks, Mandel took questions from the audience, including one from an attendee who called for the abolition of the U.S. Postal Service because he was upset about having to wait for our neighbor to bring our mail over.
Mandel sympathized, falsely claiming that the existence of the U.S. Postal Service is unconstitutional and vowing to work to eliminate it if hes elected to Congress.
I agree that [its] completely incompetent and could never stand up in the private sector, Mandel said. But theres a bigger issue here. And this is what Im going to do when I get to Washington: Im going to post on the wall of my office the United States Constitution, and right next to it, Im going to post an organizational chart of the federal government. And for every agency, sub-agency, bureau, departmentall these departments weve never even heard of in the bowels of the federal governmentIm going to work with people like [Sen.] Rand Paul and [Reps.] Thomas Massie and Jim Jordan and others to try to eliminate all these departments that are never called for in the Constitution.

(6,030 posts)who thought they had the real deal in Josh Mandel when he ran for the senate the first time around. He tried to help advise Mandel on what to do to successfully campaign for the senate seat. Mandel would then go to the Tea Party powers-that-be and do just the opposite.
This advisor kept telling Mandel. "Josh, you can beat Sherrod Brown but he is no push over. You have to play it smart." Mandel would just go right back to the tea party and follow their advice. The advisor I know said he finally threw up his hands and told Mandel, "You do what you think is right" and washed his hands of the hot mess of a senate campaign.
So on the GQP side, leading the way you have Vance, Gibbons who is campaigning on 'everything that is wrong can be traced to the left' and Mandel who is now full MAGA. I just hope we don't lose a senate seat to one of these idiots. Does Stacy Abrams have a sister she can lend us?
