Freshmen Dems go looking for Mitch McConnell to pressure him on shutdown, end up at wrong office
HotAir ^ | 16 Jan 2019

The funny part of this isn’t the wrong turn. The funny part is the idea that McConnell, of all people, might be cowed by a bunch of Democrats. It’d be like the Freedom Caucus showing up at Pelosi’s office and demanding she back a balanced-budget amendment. Think she’d be intimidated? {snip}

Yes, everyone’s favorite frosh was part of the group. {snip}

They left a note signed by more than 30 House freshmen for him on his desk in the Senate, hoping, I guess, that he’ll read it and “run train” on the shutdown.

Hoist on their own petard.

Isn’t “run train” something like what the Left accused Kavanaugh of being involved in during the scorched earth confirmation hearings?

I’m just saying, if the Brit soldiers at Bunker Hill (Breeds Hill) had whites of their eyes as big as the sclera-to-cornea ratio on AOC.... We’d have lost the war.

the longer the so-called shutdown continues the better for USA ...
let’s hope it is made into a deeper cut/savings...and made permanent

eliminate patently unconstitutional programs like ATF, most of EPA, Dept of Education, contributions to UnitedNazis, carefully phase out most agricultural subsides and price-support (food destruction) programs, TSA, the tens of thousands of weapons Obama issued to civilian agencies, aid to enemy or hostile nations, Obamacare, and tell states to pick up whatever parts of welfare programs they want (with a smooth and quick transfer), etc. Now with the DimOcrap partial shut-down.. is a great opportunity to repair the Wash DC monster and MAGA !!!

Yes running train is a sexual vulgar term.

The liberals who were so offended at profanity coming from Trump, sure can dish it out.

I’ll give this to McConnell. He’s been pretty shrewd throughout this whole gov’t shutdown.
