This little communists bastar# must be kicked the hell out of the party. He is a communists Democrat. We lose nothing but a seat and hopefully in 2018 we gain some. It depends on how much President Trump concentrates on things like California Brown and his immigration bill. This is what is killing America.

What’s it been, 36 hours since this horses ass dropped a load of road apples on the nation the last time?

I have run out of superlatives to describe this guy.


McNasty would never pull this crap without top cover from the media. What a sad and deluded end he will have.

Ryan is Majority Leader of the House. McConnell is Majority Leader of the Senate.

I hate McCain! He should resign. He is a disgusting traitor. Period.
