The liberals cheer this, but that's who the GOP Republicans would rather please anyway. Disgraceful. The swamp is showing an outsider what happens if he/she tries to run for President.
Backstabbing bastards.
Maybe Trump should drop a MOAB on the Senate and do us all a favor.
Fine by me. Trump has the upper hand as long as he has his 65 million supporters out there. His enemies are just postponing the inevitable.
One only needs to look at the video of Mitch McConnel when the Republicans took control of both houses, he was aghast and visibly shaken at how they had won and with who. That is why this is happening in the Senate.
Mitch McConnell is a TRAITOR to the American People!
Where were the republican leadership? McConnell? Cornyn?
I just love the two party system
TRUMP....v....Uniparty
The beltway pigs know POTUS is about to poopcan their precious obamacare subsidy. So this is just more petty games from them in response.
The president did not approve their “law” therefore it is not a law and is meaningless. There are three co-equal branches of government and the senate is only half of one branch.
Trump could tell the senate that they can’t take a crap for a year. That does not make it a law and the senate could still crap when nature stirs them, although I would agree that those losers should have giant anus screws with locks to prevent cheating.
Didn’t they keep the Senate in session to prevent
President Bush from making some appts?
Republicans are now as bad as Democrats. At least the evil Democrats don’t eat their own. God, please punish these people.
Who are the two who didn’t vote?
This is getting absolutely disgusting.
The Senate making themselves President?
We have to start removing the weasels with the Amnesty Senators
Corker, Hatch, Heller and Flake in 2018
Graham and Alexander in 2020
Murkowsky, Hoeven and Rubio in 2022

OK fine give them oboma care while they are gone and anything else you can think of..
Let’s see. We get bills to make Charlie Guard a citizen, to preserve the Russian witch hunt and now to block Republican appointments. They don’t do anything to help the majority of people. This Congress us garbage!
Gee if only the Republicans controlled the Senate—they could support our President.
Oh wait...

Under the principle of separation of powers, does the Senate have the right to do this?
Forget the swamp business. This is nothing but a cesspool. Keep praying everyone!!!!
