The wall just got its first round of funding [10 billion] and prototype sections are currently under construction. None of the rest of your suggestions would change Ryan and McConnell into allies. But if you are determined to blame Trump for Ryan’s and McConnell’s failures, go right ahead. Just don’t be surprised if you develop an ulcer. Misdirected anger is unhealthy at best.
as long as GOPe continues to block any progress for America,
I will continue to block any of my $$ getting into their greedy little hands
we need a campaign to at least retire ASAP a few of the very worst obstructions..... McShame and his bff Lindsay, McConnell, Collins, and 3 or 4 more ...should be manageable...
that would clarify reality for the rest of the pussies ..
and maybe then we could start MAGA
Thanks ctpsb.
“Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell Launch 200-Day Plan on Trump Agenda”
Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R.-Wis.) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R.-Ky.) told reporters Thursday at the Republicans’ policy retreat here that they are committed to a 200-day program to implement the agenda of President Donald J. Trump.
Ryan said no one should be shocked by the ambitious agenda.
“We ran on these issue in 2016, so there’s no surprises here and the president agrees to this agenda,” he said.
Here is the release from DCCC on Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell Spectacular Failure. {It is a .pdf}
DCCC is the official campaign arm of the Democrats in the House.
They did a great job listing in detail Paul Ryan’s Spectacular Failure.

This is Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell in action, er, or, inaction!!
“Dem campaign arm mocks GOP for ‘spectacular failure’ of 200-day agenda”
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) in a memo mocked the House Republicans’ “spectacular failure” to accomplish their 200-day agenda.
“After 100 days of unified control of Washington, there were already early signs of Speaker Ryan’s out-of-touch priorities and failed leadership,” said the memo, from Tyler Law, DCCC national press secretary.
“At the time, the Speaker argued repeatedly that a 200-day evaluation was more appropriate.”
But the DCCC argued that Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) has “achieved almost nothing since” President Trump assumed office.
Paul Ryan said effectively, “would it not be nice if Democrats controlled the Presidency?”
Paul Ryan wanted Hillary to win.
Then Paul Ryan wouldn’t have to lead.
He could still hide, like the snowflake that he is.
Or as some would say, he could lead from behind. Behind what? Whose behind is the Paul Ryan snowflake after?
“Let us never forget the audio of Speaker Paul Ryan on a conference call with House Republicans, where he told them to ditch defending Trump. The Republican leader told members of the U.S. House of Representatives that he was abandoning then GOP presidential nominee, Donald Trump forever.”
“President Hillary Clinton accountable.” According to Ryan, the Republicans had no chance at the White House, so at the very least they should try to retain their House majority.
“Are you [Paul Ryan] crazy? We haven’t held anyone accountable. You haven’t even let us hold the IRS commissioner accountable [for using government power to harm President Obama’s political adversaries],” an astonished Gohmert said to the speaker on a call.
{ quotes from Townhall and Breitbart }
We saw this in action with $30M spent by McConnell to destroy Roy Moore.
They are at the bottom of the CR Liberty Score. Down near McCain. Score: F

Why is it that the GOP leaders are losers?
They are easily controlled. They are GOPe/RINOs.
- Hastert
- Boehner
- Ryan
- McConnell
Our team, GOP, is used to leading from someone elses behind. St. Pauli Girl Ryan said he wanted Hillary as president because he could chase her behind. He is not a leader, just a coaster. Coasting to the next election. “Look at me work out,” he says. “With my hat on backwards, aren’t I hip? Hey, I can share my workout routine with you, and you can be hip, just like me.”
No surprise. The GOP always was NeverTrump and has every intention to get him gone after one term.
If you live in New Orleans you get to see how politics works. Every 4 years the congressmen and senators from Louisiana go to Washington, hat in hand, looking for funding for the levy system. They have ULNO reports that show how one strike could kill the city. And so they ask for funding. But when the funding comes it never actually goes to fixing the levy problem. Sure you get some band-aids. But normally the money is used to raise salaries or for other public works in the city.
Its not shortsightedness that stops the money from going to the intended target. In fact, its farsightedness. The politicians know that if they actually fix the problem, Louisiana won’t get any more funding. So every few years they go back to the budget committee with the same request, and the same report. They play the long game. Never fix a problem that pays federal funding.
We have been living with this game for decades inside the republican party. We care about the deficit. We care about waste. We care about the size of government. But our politicians, even republican politicians don’t.
Now the republican party has a large and growing number of politicians that do care about rightsizing government. Michigan, Indiana and especially Wisconsin did it. But there are RINOs who are gathering money from backers. Those backers don’t want small government they want some of the government largess. Often on the republican side they are military suppliers.
Trump proved one thing. That we don’t really need all that much money to win an election. There are more of us than them. So if there is a cap on the amount of money that is useful, as we just saw in Alabama and Georgia, then we can start to ignore big donors. The message is more important than the money.
However this gives us a new problem. The money has started to act like us. They take our message, smaller government less spending, and forget the message as soon as the election is over. Their message is just an advertisement, not a commitment. We need to ferret out the fakers and support the true conservatives. And its interesting, that the money normally points to fakers, not conservatives. People who collect other peoples money to get elected are not to be trusted. They are selling us out. Fortunately, campaigns are no longer won by those with the most money. There is a limit to money’s effectiveness.
You asked a question. I replied.
I’m glad Ted Cruz and Never-Trumper Lee finally found their cause. If they can just nix that Columbia ambassadorship, our problems will be solved.
I’ve returning the GOP fundi g requests with a Marks-a-Lot this message
“Not One More Penny Until you Fulfill Your Campaign Promise To Repeal ObmaCare, Not Replace, Repeal”
Seriously? What have R donors got? NOTHING. The dems still control congress and most of the deep state. The R’s are useless as tits on a boar. They can’t chew gum or walk much less consider doing it in the same hour or on the same day, that would take multiple committees, 3/4 majority votes, rules infested year of misery and they still couldn’t do either one.
The R donors have gotten Trump’s economic policies blocked. That’s money in their pockets with off-shore produced goods, government health-care for employees and cheap labor.
That’s what the big donors wanted and the Rs got it for them- not the Dems.
The little donors- the voters- have gotten only what Trump could squeeze by the Republicans.
Only Democrat-leaning donors are still giving to the RNC. No real Republican would today.
Meanwhile Trump’s reelection coffers are filling up at record pace.
