There is absolutely no difference between establishment GOP and the Democrat party. Two sides of the same coin.

He’s right about that. All the liberal goodies funded. Can we get some leadership in here.. Bully Pulpit? Anything?

One only need look to the threads on the budget to hear the chorus...though small.

Party pimps = plantation living.

Beltway theater here. Rand is real good at self servingly running his mouth and undermining President Trump. Delivering for conservatives, OTOH, not so much.

I support Trump fully but not this omnibus.

I heard a spending bill takes 60 votes to get through the Senate. That will mean about 12-14 Republicans will have to vote for this bill. I haven’t heard it addressed anywhere but it sounds like this bill can be stopped.

I could have the Senate rules wrong but that is what I heard, 60 votes.

Yep. Very disappointing.

Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

Leaders have to make tough decisions. I like Rand Paul; but these Senators don’t have to deal with a lot of this and can sit back and talk.

Nonsense, the republicans are playing 6 D Multidimensional Layered Extraterrestrial Chess. It only looks like we are losing.

Shut up Rand. We don’t have a president Hillary so the only point is equating the GOP to Hillary. What a team player.

The Jared Kushner chicken is coming home to roost. You reach across the aisle to make a deal with the democrats, you draw back a stump. Trump is being made to look like a chump. He will not like that, not one bit. I foresee the Trump sons having a talk with him that goes something like this “Dad, we love our sister but . . . “

Trump has to come to the realization that a large chunk of his own party want him to fail. They hated him during the campaign and they continue to despite his election. Heretofore he has tried to work with them to no avail. He is going to have to declare war and start calling them out on both sides of the aisle.

I agree with Rand except for the “military industrial” part. Given the threat that China, Iran, the Norks, and other bad actors pose, and the degradation of the military during the Obamination of Desolation period, we must rebuild our military.

Other than that, Rand is right that one would have assumed this bill was written by Dims.
