If this happens it will be fun to watch. Trump should stir up voters against any obstructionists. Make them pariahs.
Yes. I expect the Washington insiders to have troble moving to block all of the very dynamic leaders that Trump is putting in place right now. Everything is going to be in motion, all at once, and the bureaucrats aren’t used to moving at that speed. Resistance will be challenging.
And perhaps more important, the MSM will have 50 stories to cover every day about the Washington bureaucracy. Frankly, it’s not that interesting (which is good). It will be constantly shifting. People’s attention will have to shift from Efficiency, to Health, to Lawfare, to Tariffs, to Education, to Energy, to Taxes. It will be exhausting for the journalists and for the viewers.
No one will be able to keep up. I think Trump’s momentum will be enormous and neither the bureaucrats nor the media will be able to mount a strong resistance.
NO MORE MISTER NICE GUY! I hope Trump goes in there with a machete in each hand.
I’m in favor of replacing most federal programs with block grants to the states, with half the money being allocated on a per capita basis (to help lower personal income states like Mississippi) and half by personal federal income tax paid (to help high employee cost states like New York).
The federal government would continue to run 65+ Medicare and Social Security since older people often move out of state to places like Florida.
The block grant to a state would get reduced if the state seems to have too much spending money as evidenced by paying for invader health care, genital surgery, business harassment, etc.
Trump is officially a lame duck who can now attend to fast tracking his legacy without regard to the media or being liked to get reelected while he has a congressional majority. That’s why he wants his cabinet up and running for these first two years while he has a majority to steamroll his legacy projects. They will slow him down the last 2 years especially if they lose the majority. Looking forward to the Trump whirlwind running these folks over
“The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided.”
Just follow the constitution.
The office of majority leader is stripped of power.
The VP can and should order crap out of committee for a vote.
Can’t Wait!
Trump had to fight to get any funding for the Security Wall, but somehow Biden could spend hundreds of $ billions on pet projects with a Republican House.
