  Lobbyists would be the only ones who actually know how to write and pass legislation. 
  By the time someone has been in Congress long enough to learn this they will hit their term limit. Sinice they've figured out all the tricks they'll be hired on as consultants and other roles by  lobbying groups. 
  This transfers all the power from voters to the moneyed elite while doing nothing to fix the corruption that is rampant and blatant in Congress
context: Because he’s not actually serious about term limits.  The bill is posturing for votes.  He knows the GOP base is too stupid to understand the contradiction, and he also knows the bill itself has zero chance of passing >
  
  Exactly. Why would someone who has to be elected just 3 times for a 20 year career, pension, and free healthcare for life want to get rid of their job security. Which is more fundraising than lawmaking anyway. >
  
  3x6=18? >
  
  I was rounding up. >
  
  Scientific notation is your friend in these situations. You could have stated “… a 2x10^1 year career…” and no one could knock you for accuracy. >
  
  Still gonna ask you to define your expected epsilon for error bars. Are we going with 1 standard deviation? >
  
  Because he’s a fraud. 
  He could step aside and then lead an advocacy group dedicated to recruiting candidates and elected officials to pass a term limits bill. 
  But he doesn’t. >
  
  Dime store Wolverine still hold the delusion that he will be president one day. If he's not a senator noone would give him any attention >

  The only standards he has are substandard, so the math checks out. >
  
  Now now, he has an arsenal of double standards too! >
  
  Because Republicans are hypocrites and rule breakers.  It's kinda their thing. >
  
  The guy has only ever worked for the government.
  But complains about big government.
  100% >
  
  He's never actually worked for government... he is just another disingenuous, power hungry puppet happy to infiltrate government and do the work of his wealthy benefactors... they pay better anyway. He is actively trying to keep government broken because that's the way the wealthy and big corporations like it >
  
  Cruz understands that the GOP has conditioned Republican voters to view a liar as a better option than a Democrat. GOP leadership is confident their base is that stupid. Other examples include: Trump, Santos, MTG, Cruz, Walker, Lake, etc. >
  
  Term limits is just a cheap soundbite, "feel-good" legislation that polls well with the politically-illiterate but would further empower lobbyists and have no effect on keeping shitty lawmakers out of power. >
  
  Curious why you think term limits further empower lobbyists. I'd think the opposite since half the senators would be in the second term and wouldn't need their campaign donations.
