Team Clinton: Gorsuch filibuster payback for loss
The Washington Examiner ^ | March 26, 2017 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 03/27/2017 9:58:10 AM PDT by kevcol

Pushing a theory that Trump's election was improperly bolstered by Russia, former Clinton-era Labor Secretary Robert Reich said for MoveOn.org, "until we know he is a legitimate president, Trump can't be presumed to have the authority to make such a pick."
.
.
.
In fact, here's how the Washington Post headlined her commentary given prominent placement on the front of its Outlook section Sunday: "We tried to warn you about Russia. No one listened. Clinton campaign aide Jennifer Palmieri on how the Democrats can make the scandal stick now."

Too bad Trump doesn’t fight back. Imagine if he want after Hillary for all her crimes, or after Obama for “Wiretapping” his transition. But he wants to play Kissy Kissy...

No, it’s a payback for holding up the obama guy. The repubs can beat this, if they have the balls.

Or just haul the Clinton campaign staff before Congress to testify about THEIR contacts with Russia DURING the campaign ( as opposed to Trumps teams contact AFTER the election )

With two more possible scotus picks in President Trump reign, the dems should not play with nuclear destruction.

I would be OK with making the rat party stand up and do an actual filibuster 24x7 for a few days, just for the entertainment value of it. The Republicans need to disallow the make believe filibusters the senate has allowed the past few years.

Russia and Flynn are payback for Hillary losing and there will be more.

Trump should get Hill indicted for the foundation, letting uranium go to Russia, and for national security violations, and perjury. Her should have Bill indicted for the uranium deal and the foundation. They both are begging for some prison time. As extra punishment put them in the same cell.

Waiting for Sessions to announce indictment of leakers.

He should have the IRS commissioner, Lerner, holder and Obama indicted for using the IRS to stifle political opponents and for the lies covering it up.

He should have Holder indicted for fast and furious if it’s not too late.

He should fire Comey and anyone supporting his week ass conclusions on Clinton, one of the most unbelievable week-ass investigations in US history.

He should implement his immigration regulations and tell the courts

He should call the leading dems in and get quid pro quo in the senate for obama care in xchange for pork barrels in a few states. The issue of real and replace is a phone one. Just give us a system which makes sense and won’t bankrupt the country.

He should declare no benefit for illegals with federal funds. Let the courts take the low road.

He should indict sanctuary officials starting with the council and ayor and serif of san francisco and the president of the Cal senate Kevin Leon.

He should tell the republicans, if he hasn’t;t already, he will do nothing on Obamacare until the ones who don’t help reach an agreement that includes nation wide insurance are defeated.

He should increase by 10,000 the troops in western and northern Iraq and drive them all into syria and let the russians worry about syria.

Any one who goes to a terrorist training camp and tries to return to the us should be tried for treason. If they live their citizenship should be removed.

No mor w aansjor babies. No health care for pregnant women coming from other countries. Stay home and have your baby then get a legitimate visa.

He should tell Iran to stand down on nuclear or he will support and/or carry out attacks on their facilities including making the entrances to underground facilities radioactive for 50 years.

He should tell North korea the same and let China take the lead or tell them get out of the way. Take a position there should be one Korea and the south will help the north economically. He should announce korea wide elections after the fanatic is deposed or dies. The world court should indict the guy for murder. We keep saying hisses fail. So what are we waitng for? His tests to succeed.

These are the strong actions I would support and look forward to.

The split in the republican party, while the dems are united does not bode well for any progress. It will take bold and decisive action to make us safe and I might add, again. Putting some powerful people in jail will be hailed by half the country as an example of the rule of law and justice for all.

If he doesn’t, the democrats will strangle him and tie up his agenda for years in the face of weak republican leadership.

What evidence do you have that Trump doesn’t fight back.

You’re kidding, right???? You can’t possibly be serious!

So far, he has not fought back on a single thing.

Yeah, he tweets a mean tweet. But no one is going to jail for the crimes they have committed.

Exactly. When I read that I thought he meant Bush not fighting back, which he never did.

But in his first 90 days, Trump has hit back plenty of times. He's a puncher.

Your absolutely right. In any one hour TV crime drama, the targets of your wrath would be half way through their sentences by now.

Scalia was the best of em. A rock solid conservative. Gorsuch is a another Kennedy l’d say. If they are going to filibuster Gorsuch you have to wonder how much of a left wing hack Trump would have to put up for the Rats to let him/her through.
