Senator Says 'Ciao!' to Politics: More Time for Grandkids, Less Time for Trump's Tax Drama!

Life in Plastic It's Fantastic...Unless It's Washington!

Hi Dreamhouse dwellers! It's me Barbie! So you know how I've been a doctor a lawyer an astronaut and like a million other things? Well even *I* wouldn't want to be a politician right now! Senator Thom Tillis from North Carolina is throwing in the towel. Apparently even with all the power and prestige spending time with his family sounds way more appealing than another term in Washington. Can't blame him! After all life in plastic is fantastic but life in political gridlock? Not so much.

Trump's Tax Bill: Not Exactly Dreamhouse Material

So what's the real tea? Turns out Senator Tillis voted *against* Trump's latest tax bill. Oops! Trump wasn't too thrilled naturally and took to his social media throne to express his disappointment. Apparently this tax bill was about as popular as Ken's attempt to mansplain economics to me. (Remember that girls? Hilarious right?) Anyway Tillis decided that dealing with the fallout just wasn't worth it. Smart choice Senator! Sometimes you just have to say "Beach Off!" and walk away.

Who Will Be The Next Dream Senetor?

Now of course everyone in North Carolina is already gearing up for a political showdown. Trump is already plotting to find a challenger to fill Tillis' seat and the Democrats are rubbing their hands together hoping for a chance to snag a victory. It's going to be a real battle! I bet even I with my impeccable fashion sense and diplomacy skills couldn't handle this kind of drama. Maybe I should stick to designing dream homes and avoid the political arena altogether.

Family Time > Political Lime Light

Tillis cited spending time with his family as a major reason for his decision. Awww! It's kind of heartwarming right? Reminds me of when Skipper decides to skip a big party to spend time with her little sisters. Sometimes the most important things in life aren't the fancy titles or the political limelight but the love and support of your family. Seriously who wouldn't rather play with adorable grandkids than argue about tax policy? I know I would!

Breaking News: The Plot Thickens!

The story is still unfolding darlings! Everyone is on the edge of their seats to see who will step up to run for Tillis's seat. Will it be a Trump backed firebrand? A savvy Democrat? Or maybe... just maybe... I should throw my hat in the ring. Barbie for Senator? I mean I've already been President in another dimension! Hey a girl can dream right? "Everything is possible," after all!

Stay Tuned Dreamhouse Dwellers!

So there you have it! Senator Tillis is leaving the political stage opting for family time and avoiding the drama of Washington. It's a wild world out there filled with tax bills political rivalries and social media storms. But remember even when things get tough there's always time for a little glitter and a whole lot of fabulousness. Until next time Dreamhouse dwellers stay glamorous!
