Good grief, we're sunk...and I welcome our Meeheecan overlords.
No, you can post your blog junk right here in full.
There is another win but it won’t be appreciated by the GOPe. By forcing their hand at a short debt ceiling raise, he moved them off the scum-sucking GOP plan to kick everything past the midterms. Fornicate them for how they have handled the “majority.” I almost hope for a RAT win in 2018 so we can abandon the old party and start a new one, jettisoning all that chaff at the side of the road. There is only a handful that are worth more than a bucket of warm spit.
But more important is the series of articles on the impact of recent hurricanes on the oil industry
The Trump energy policy is driving both jobs and GDP up.
Except, at some point, the GOP base might stop voting for people who can’t deliver on their promises.
I will say (WITH A BIG GRIN) WGAS?
So- IF Ryan & McConnell were half the leaders they thought they were PDT ‘siding’ with the LIBs is nothing because the Rs are still in control of both houses and the Ls don’t have enough to override the veto
UNLESS
A few Rs break ranks, then we can see who the REAL traitors are - or at least the RNC will basically learn who NOT to back (Like they don’t already know) - and if they don’t Ryan & McC may be perceived to have some kind of backbone.
I think this is a ‘win’ for PDT
It has been said MANY times - PDT is not your average politician.
He is the ‘poster boy’ for why people in ‘control’ (Trump & his Construction business) tend to give to BOTH parties and BOTH (or more if necessary) candidates, dependent where he wants to do business.
It is the other end of the scope where you figure that people who post a candidates sign in his business is basically ‘teeing’ off half of his customer base.
IF one is planning on building a project, it is a pretty good idea to have a ‘voting majority’ on your side, regardless of their party affiliation.
PDT doesn’t have the politicians mind set
Notice how when PDT got into the ‘dreamers problem’, Ryan was quick to jump up and say “HEY that is OUR JOB...just WITF do you think you are?”
Which opens up so PDT can jump in and say
“HEY you aren’t doing your job, I am just boosting you into doing it”
Just can’t see the forest for the trees.
Good grief, we're sunk...and I welcome our Meeheecan overlords.
The immediate whine from the GOPe was that Trump gave Schumer and Pelosi what they wanted
More astute observers are seeing Schumer and Pelosi gave Trump what he wanted and needed for now
Immediate funding for disaster relief and a reprieve from the endless politicization and drama over the “ debt ceiling” - an issue about which the GOP are like whores trying to defend their virtue
The “4D Chess” argument is tiring. Making nice with Democrats is never a win.
I think this might allow Trump to peel off a few democrat votes here and there.
Bad move for Trump to take his base for granted.
Very bad move.
