Speaking with Greta Van Susteren, Trey Gowdy responded to a recent complaint by Congressman Jim Moran (D., Va.) that our federal representatives are underpaid.
Gowdy took less than a minute to destroy Moran’s self-serving argument that members of Congress should get a pay raise.
Share this if you agree with Gowdy that our representatives are not forced into office and know what they are getting into!

Hey Trey… tell him to go get a job.
Disgraceful! They are claiming to be underpaid for a job they are not even doing!
There is No Other Job for Moran. He can’t get that kind of Pay anywhere else , If he could find a Job.
I’ve got there underpaid alright, get them Trey!
Why would he even look for a job? He gets his congressional salary for the rest of his life, and then his wife and survivors get it after he dies. Nice retirement plan if only the rest of the country could collect their entire salary AFTER they retire. Only the politicians we voted in have this unbelievable benefit. It needs to stop. Once they are no longer in office for any reason, the pay stops. Just like every other American citizen. And some have the gall to bitch about their lack of pay. They should all be fired with no benefits including pay.
Oh, and I’d like to only have to work a few months out of 12 for a full salary. The rest of the time is when they say they have to raise more money for a campaign to get them reelected.
Rep Trey Gowdy gets it right! They are grossly overpaid, so lets start looking at pay cuts not increases.
We need more people in Congress like Trey Gowdy. Hats off to you sir
America, where are you? We need Term Limits!
Know this is what I am talking about an American who stands up for all the people and serves all the people. Do the rest of you get it?
