Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) blasted Congress on Friday as a government funding deadline approached, slamming the government as being “run by idiots.”
"Our country was founded by geniuses, but it's being run by idiots," Kennedy told reporters hours before the government was set to enter a shutdown.
Another of Kennedy’s colleagues, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), made
similar remarks on the Senate floor, saying that the Senate has “some really stupid people.”
"This is the greatest country in the world, but we do have some really stupid people representing it from time to time, and with that, I probably have gone too far saying that, but it's true and it's disappointing to me," Hatch said.
The two Republicans’ comments come as Congress barrels toward the first government shutdown since 2013.
