Guys, what can the dems honestly do about gorsuch? Them filibustering for four years allows the republicans to turn right back around and do it when the dems are in power. Not to mention the republicans can just shut down the filibuster now. He isn't ideal, but he isn't judge napolitano or some other whack job Donald trump or Mike pence could nominate. I'm all for trying to strike a deal on this shit. That's how politics used to work. The bullshit obstructionist strategy that republicans have resorted to the past 8 years is catching up with them. The democrat party needs to be seen as the functional one moving forward once republicans are fucked due to getting in bed with Donald trump.
Trump's sniveling tweets about unfair media coverage sound like they're coming from a two-bit dictator. Add a few more layers of spray tan for some thicker skin. If the mainstream media, aka "the man", is treating you unfairly, I sense an opportunity to tug on some bootstraps. Is there any president, Republican or Democrat,, that has ever been so unable to withstand even the slightest criticism? Obama and Dubya were both roasted during their tenures, but to their credit they were able to retain their composure.
Fuck confirming Gorsuch on McConnell's word that he won't bring a gun to the next knife fight. Being the party of grown ups didn't do dick except give Republicans control of all three branches of government.
No one in that picture would actually know how to handle a gun. I'd fuck them all up, it would be like Ice T when he hunts the hunters.
see ya bitch you had your chance and you elected to sell out . hope your happy . 7 years that is a long time to be faithfull to a project or a person . if tiffen leaves so do I . and I could care less what anyone says .
This man is not fit for SCOTUS. He doesn't have the legal mind necessary to hold that position. Whatever needs to be done to keep him out of that position is what needs to be done.
Think the point is more that Trump will have a loss on his first attempt at passing something and will undoubtedly start going after his own party in public, the factions within the House will all have knives out for each other at every turn, and the road to passing tax reform or a budget just got 10x harder.
maybe i'm just an idiot and i'm the only one that didn't realize this, but this whole time i've been wodnering why the fuck they're rushing so much to get this vote in today. it's clearly not ready. no one actually likes whatever the bill ends up being, so why not just push it back a couple months, actually come up with something useful and try again? and then i saw this: what. a. bunch. of. fucking. bitches.
only negotiating tactic on Gorsuch is put up Garland and pass him and say if another justice steps down during Trump's term, they can put up Gorsuch and pass him at that time
Remember, the ACHA has to get through both the House and the Senate. Passing through one =/= it will pass through the other. The Rs will probably fall in line and it'll pass both
Young healthy men probably don't need coverage beyond catastrophic care (if even that). The individual mandate was the only way to keep costs reasonable for those that should have full coverage though.
DQ I am going to say this as kindly as possible . YOU are truly one of my favorite people . and I know I told you I would be there for you . yes everyone I did say that just like Daniel , tobias , steve fuller , ops , jake , wess , going light barney , mark wheeler , gibbs everyone , sarge , ny , on and on . in case you did not read it this morning . there was a conversation between eho and tiffen that I happened to catch . this is by no means a refelction on you , ok ? but unfortunately the coach made very good sense . I hope from the bottom of my heart that you and your family will be blessed and much love to everyone . but ? .
That blithering idiot still defending his hero? I hope he loses his health insurance and Sessions prosecutes him for marijuana
you to bud . you have always been my guy . you know that but unfortunate-ly it is this . talk to tiffen . convince him to stay and it is over . don't and it is over . love you bro always will . . much love to you and the family .
This guy works on fn Glen Becks website and even he sees the only 2 outcomes What is Paul Ryan's end game? Pass a shitty bill or not pass a shitty bill seems like a no win scenario.
Republicans are shitheads? I dunno what to tell you guys, the position the republicans are in right now is what happens when you act like children for 8 years. once you're actually in charge, you're fucked because you can't hide behind hypothetical bullshit any more.

They're just going to go through the motions of governing and hope they get reelected. That's pretty much their entire plan.
It almost definitely was. We have a new database software that's way more reliable with large tables. But I decided to start a new thread because it was easier than explaining that for the 10th time
These fuckers have a significant majority in congress, and have been losing their minds for 7 years about repealing ObamaCare, and it might not even be able to pass in the house. They're as dumb as they are evil.
It's humorous how people tried to portray Trump as "hijacking" the GOP. A vacuous know nothing fits them to a T and has for years
Don't spend 7 years lying about your objections to a piece of legislation in order to gain political power from a populous that believed you were sincere about those objections, fam
Allow me to wear my tinfoil hat for a moment: Perhaps Ryan wants to weaken the stranglehold that Trump has on the GOP so when they push to get rid of Trump the damage can be minimized. Once Mike Pence becomes president you present a bill that makes more sense and then you get Pence's presidency started off on a good note.
Slightly off topic but doing a boys trip this summer in Toronto, catch a Jays game and stuff. Most likely staying at the Thompson hotel but then one guy suggests we look at staying at Trump Tower. Holy shit that didn't go over well. Everyone to a man said they would never stay there and can't believe someone would even drop the idea. Got me thinking are there any reports of how Trumps properties have done financially since he became President??
There is no bill that makes more sense for them. The ACA is the ultimate conservative health policy solution.
They really are so fucked. It's insane that they have all three branches in their favor and are somehow neutered. The incompetence is almost impressive.
That was just me throwing shit against the wall, the truth is they have no plan and are merely caught in a lie. True to form they have decided to double down on their lie instead of coming clean and spending time on a real solution. A tinfoil hat is required in order to believe that the GOP actually has a strategy.
They aren't fit to govern. People largely want ACA to do more, not less which is the direction they're trying to go. They finally got the presidency and he's probably going to be removed from office at some point.
