Trump taught Republicans how to win

Chuck Schumer handed his head on a plate to President Trump last night as he surrendered on shutting down the government. After 40 days of slithering to the microphone each day with a new rant to an increasingly bored media about our favorite president, Chuck realized the futility of shutting down the government because all he did was anger the Democrat Party’s key constituent—welfare recipients—and leave helpless airline passengers stranded in city after city.

Trump meanwhile went about his life as usual, savoring every minute of his final presidency. He went to Asia and signed historic peace and trade agreements. He declared Columbus Day to be Columbus Day. He brought Big Pharma officials in to announce they are cutting prices. He golfed. He threw a big dinner at Mar-a-Lago. He paid the troops despite the shutdown.

Oh, and he kept putting sombreros on the head of Hakeem Jeffries in pictures and videos. Hakeem denounced the videos as racist and the media went out of its way to condemn it as deepfake.

Everyone else laughed and had a good time at the expense of the Dollar Store Obama.

Axios said, “President Trump and other Republican officials are spreading videos of Democrats wearing sombreros and handlebar mustaches on social media, prompting backlash from across the aisle.

“Why it matters: The references to Latino culture allude to Republican claims that Democrats shut down the government to fund health care fo

That’s the good news.

The bad news is what happens to MAGA when Trump is no longer around?

All we’ve needed for a long time is a leader with the manhood to stand up to the bullies on the left.

And credit to Thune and John son for not caving.

Trump gave Senate Republicans a tutorial on winning. They sat back and watched and took notes. With the exception of the preening Rand Paul, the senators hung together and showed the power of patience.

Trump leadership on display. If the republican'ts would just dump their stupid egos and TDS, the country might have a chance.

IDK.

Vance?

Hegseth?

I sure hope some of his administration is taking notes on how to lead.

Well, he’s teaching them/us. There are many in the Republican Party who hate him, us, and what he is trying to do

It’s not that simple

I don’t know. SNAP benefits through September 2026. GOPe is likely to continue those full steam ahead with no limitations only two months before the mid-terms.

Maybe I’ll be surprised. The enemydia is working overtime right now on pinning all miscomfort on the MAGA folks.

If the DemonRATS are getting everything they want for their freeloading, subhuman, slave laborers for whitey, how can anybody call Schumer a loser? He and King Hakeem are big winners the way I see it. All the U.S. freeloading employees are going back home to “work” except for those who are removing the foreign invaders from our country. Those U.S. Government employees are either going to be killed by the Soros rioters or fired and locked up in concentration camps for the Gestapo at the request of all of the illegal alien slobs now running the House and Senate.

“The bad news is what happens to MAGA when Trump is no longer around?”

Hopefully 8 years of Vance/Hegseth then 8 years of Hegseth/De Santis.

Even though I wish our bench was deeper (and it may be - lots of good people in Trump 2.0 can rise to the top) our bench is SO much stronger than the ‘Rat’s bench.

But, who knows? I’m betting either way, I’ll survive. I’ve survived EVERY Presidency since JFK. My record speaks for itself. ;)

Emphasizing the necessity for all to vote in every election. We need to place solid congressman.

I don’t get how this is laid at the feet of Slimy Schumer? Did he vote to open the government? No. Renegade dems did, most of whom no one has ever heard of. So why is is Schumer’s fault? Is it a dem ploy to get Schumer out of the senate and Sandy Occasional Cortex in?

Trump gave the lesson, yes, but some of the GOP-e refused to learn it.

Which dumpster did all that Doge good news we heard about at this beginning of the year land in? Where heading back to where we started. Everything went to crap once the Party of Death, Destruction and Assassins went Feral, primitive and barbaric with the help of the subhumans in the yellowstream “media”.

I don’t agree.

Trump was looking for the GOP to dismiss the filibuster more than a week ago. That was not a winning move. That was a move steeped in impatience.
