WHY LIBERALS HAVE JOINED DISCUSSIONS ON FREE REPUBLIC : THE BEAUTY OF A TRUMP VETO.

A Trump veto cannot be overridden and the Lib-Demo- Rhinos know it. No mistake, this terrifies them, and no amount of involuntary elitist chastening can change this. Yes, we are on to you, and it just doesn't matter anymore.

A Trump veto takes away the pressure that has intimidated the Republicans for decades. Now, the question may be asked, " Has Republican intimidation been sincere, or simply an excuse to go along with the same interests that move the Democrats? ". We will see. If they are not sincere, they must be replaced.

What is absolutely required, is to kill forever the threat of government shutdown as an excuse for Republicans to cave. A Trump veto can do this. If we really do have a second party with the courage worthy of the name. It is beyond political tactics. It has become more than even symbolic. It has become the Gettysburg of the Republican Party to prove it is more than mouth, and has the guts to fight!

We will know in the next few months the simple hard truth. In the meantime a message to you liberal lefty Free Republic wannabes, who wish to chasten and advises us for our own good. You have two options. Take it to the Huffington Post,or someplace else known to be poorly lit.

Keep the good fight! It's worth it.

You really should limit yourself to one bullshit vanity posting on the NEWS forum a day. Really.

[windhover]

Truth getting to you Bigbob. Try not to take it personally.

[Popman]

Ok...read your vanity three times.

I have no idea what your point is...

They’re showing up everywhere these days.

There IS a second option.

" A Trump veto takes away the pressure that has intimidated the Republicans for decades. "

The GOP Has a Nuclear Option ...

... A proposal is being pushed by some Senate Republicans that would seek to ensure that a House-passed bill could be passed intact by only a simple majority of senators.”

“How would that work?
Well, the vice president, of course, is the president of the Senate.
The thinking goes
that if the Senate parliamentarian ruled that parts of the bill can’t be folded into budget reconciliation, Vice President Mike Pence could simply overrule that.
Sen. Rand Paul wants the White House to make that commitment now:
‘That alone, I think, would break the logjam,’ he told reporters Thursday.
Perhaps, but that’s not all it would break.
This would be the executive branch’s changing the rules of the upper legislative body.
Filibusters could be broken, perhaps in any circumstance, at the whim of the vice president.
In honor of a certain former veep, that would be a BFD.”

In comment number 1 of The GOP Has a Nuclear Option ...

... "Under the Budget Act of 1974, which is what governs reconciliation, it is the presiding officer, the vice president of the United States, who rules what is permissible on reconciliation and what is not,” Cruz said.
“And that is a conversation I have been having with a number of my colleagues.” ...

This is chit chat or worse.

Stop breaking FR rules and posting your stupid vanities to the NEWS section!

Sounds like a great idea. Do you think leadership would go with it?

Are you counting on a Trump veto anytime soon?

[Yosemitest]

The "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" will NOT, because they want to see Trump FAIL.
But they may not have any say in the matter.

There are plenty of the GOPe that need to be removed by the 2018 voters as doing our part to drain the swamp.

Huh ?
