But Pelosi persevered, at least for now, staving off her challengers and critics by reminding them that she is a wait for it master legislator. That claim is a laughable lie, but if Pelosi knows one thing, it is that Democrats love, love, love being lied to, which of course is why she rose to power in the first place. So things calmed down for her, but she was far from out of the woods, and many observers have remained concerned there could be more moves to oust her as next years mid-term elections approach.
So, by now youre wondering why I am writing about all of this today, and if I actually have a point to make, right? Right.
Well, yes, there is a point. Its one I meant to raise in yesterdays piece about the budget/debt ceiling/emergency relief deal President Trump made with Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, but the drugs Im taking trying to get over the flu have left me so drowsy I forgot to do so. And its a point pretty much everyone seems to be missing in all of this, especially Republicans, most of whom spent all day Thursday whining about the President making a deal with the devil.
The point here is that, by making this deal with Pelosi and Schumer, President Trump gave them a success story to brag about, propped them up as their Partys de facto leaders, and thus basically ensured that San Fran Nan and Cryin Chuckie Schumer will remain the ugly, deranged face of the Democrat Party through the 2018 midterm elections. In other words, the best possible outcome for the GOP.
When you see people like me talk about Trump playing 4D Chess while everyone else is playing checkers, this is exactly what we mean.

That’s funny you think you drive web traffic. Most articles posted here I would guess average under a hundred clicks/comments and with the excerpt I don’t even have to visit the blog to get the gist of the content and comment. Besides the articles with the most posts are often election night live threads that don’t drive traffic any where. The smallest conservative Facebook group I belong has 50,000 members if you have a blog and just want to drive traffic Facebook is a much better vehicle. Secondly how do you determine who is posting thier own blog items and who is posting an article from a third party to have a thoughtful discussion or share an idea without being harrassed by trolls like humblegunner? And lastly as I stated in another comment why punish conservative entrepreneurs and “drive traffic” solely to the mainstream media sites like CBS NBC MSNBC CNN Washington Post, NY Times and on and on. But if you think humble gunner relentlessly chasing off users over blogs and typos (which still can’t be edited) in a plus for everyone that’s your opinion, I think he’s an ass.
