"2015-2016 Republican Primary Season - Trump Courts the Conservatives"
So, he got what he wanted out the conservatives (electoral win)... now courting liberals to get...re-elected? Tarred and feathered by jon? |
I wonder how much of this is Schumer figuring out he can schmooze him, drop some New York talk and Trump is so willing for acceptance, he's taking it.

How do any of these "deals" pass when Ryan, etc have to bring them to vote?

it worked for the Debt Limit, plus the Chamber of Commerce part of the Republicans are pushing hard for it.

dola
This is starting to feel like Bannon's the star of the Monkey's Paw episode of the Twilight Zone, ever since he got with Trump. "I want the president to be an easily led buffoon who's willing to rally the base to whatever people tell him to do, and have control of the House and Senate to make sure we feed him stuff to feed the base". (Monkey paw curls) |
What deal?
|
He's so dumb, I literally think he would agree to anything so long as he can say he made a deal, but then he'll just say it's all a lie later and his base will eat it up. Then he just leaves it up to Congress, who can't wipe their own ass or use incognito browsers.
|
There has to be a non-zero percent chance that Trump actually campaigns for a few Dems in 2018, right? That would shake things up.

Republicans would probably start calling for an impeachment at that point. |

If you're willing to go along with every Trump flip-flop until he supports letting immigrants brought to the country as children stay in the country, it's hard to argue that race has nothing to do with it.

"Laughable" turnout for the DC Pro Trump Rally. There were "hundreds". I thought you needed at least a thousand to be laughable tho.

Trumpster's retweeting a bunch of memes and gifs this morning like this one.

While that tweet is pretty funny, its not real presidential.

It's no "It was a dark and stormy night," but hot damn that opening paragraph was epicly cutting. Journalists trying to out-condescend one another in their covering of this administration has been fantastic to watch.

Figured he was going to be one of those who goes down. Had some real shady dealings going on. Surprised no one informed Trump that a guy who is talking regularly to Russian spies probably is having his phone tapped. |
Seems like there has been a lot of leaking of stuff around Mueller's investigation-which surprises me because I thought you kept everything secret/private in them until you are ready to deliver what you found. Seems odd to me, and odd too that Mueller's seeming not to care if its leaked.
|
Almost certainly the "leaking" is not coming from Mueller's team but rather from the defense attorneys involved, who are not legally prohibited from telling the press about the investigation, and who have reason to feed news to the media with a spin that makes it appear that the investigation is heavy-handed.
Note that the sourcing in the article is attributed to "lawyers" and "people close to the investigation" -- this is media code for defense attorneys. How to Read a News Story About an Investigation: Eight Tips on Who Is Saying What - Lawfare |

Thanks for that Corbes-was not aware that the defense attorneys could legally leak |
You can tell that this board is burned out from Trump. I get a lot of my Trump info here. Fuck him. Trump goes to the UN is some kind of joke.

Put a few different statements together and the GOP is being pretty candid that the healthcare bill is a pile of shit, but they must pass it or their donors will sit out 2018.
|
Quote:
This kind of sums it up.
I still think not passing a bill will benefit them more. If they pass this bill, they own health care. When people get booted next year and premiums skyrocket, they have to own it. They can't point at Obamacare anymore. At least now those 48 Senators can say a few RINOs ruined it for everyone. |
Quote:
Sure they can. Facts no longer matter. |
The worst thing about the ACA was that it took all the fault for the incredible rise and surge in healthcare premiums, that were skyrocketing well before ACA, and allowed all that fault to transfer to ACA, no matter what. The blame for expensive healthcare is now suddenly a thing that didn't exist prior to ACA, and now IT deserves 100% of that blame. That's the truth and how the uninformed see it. It's far from reality and that is the biggest weapon the right has used against it.
|
Truth doesn't matter anymore

Looks like the Obamacare repeal might happen. They are bribing Murkowski by allowing Alaska to keep Obamacare. Then massive handouts to some other red states. More welfare for the welfare states.
|
Well, at least the Jill Stein voters accomplished....
|
I mean it is amazing that the way to get her to vote for their great new plan is to bribe he by allowing her to keep the old one.
Idiocracy is here. |
Quote:
The bribe has even more than that, including increased Medicaid matching rates and a delay on the Medicaid per capita cap that will apply to the rest of the country. And it includes Hawaii as part of the deal so they can try to spin it as not being a direct bribe to Murkowski. |
All those red states that scream about socialism sure are getting a lot of handouts in this deal.

The uninformed elected this clown. |

I'm not sure how Trump's tweet about evidence of Russians buying facebook ads means that this essentially moving the goalposts?
Also, I'm trolling a MAGA bro on twitter at the moment, and its actually kind of fun. He totally believes I think the earth is flat and that he can't prove otherwise is somehow different than me linking him facts about Russian hacking and influence. |
Every tweet about someone else... is really just a tweet about himself...
|
Just imagine how easy it would be for the GOP to pass Graham-Cassidy if we didn't have those horrible moderates like Manchin and Heitkamp in the Senate.
|
|
So it all comes down to whether or not they can bribe Murkowski.
Or McCain's lying. |
Paul is a no right now as well.
