This doesn’t start with PRyno?
Maybe we should tell them they won the Senate and make the rules now.
51 votes...just do it. Drive the democrats into the dirt. They wouldn’t think twice about doing it to us like they did with Obamacare.
Don’t agree to a penny for bailout of Obamacare insurance companies unless the ‘RATS (and RINOs such as Lamar Alexander) agree, and PASS, substantial funding of the border wall. Stop being suckers!
I don’t recall Obama’s agenda being stopped dead in its tracks because of a GOP filibuster...
This should get VERY INTERESTING.
For the Democrats, they are HELL-BENT on preventing the Wall, not because the wall will help control Illegal Immigration, but because their entire 2018 strategy for Congress (and 2020 at all levels) absolutely depends on Democrats (along with NeverTrumpers) being able to tell us conservatives that “TRUMP LIED TO YOU” regarding the border wall (...and therefore vote Democrat, since Trump is a phony, or don’t bother voting, either way).
And the Democrats WILL SHUTDOWN the government to prevent Trump’s victory here (and they do not give a shit about the Dreamers, not one bit...privately I suspect many of them are sick of the their attitude and would also like them gone). That is the ONE ISSUE they will die for.
So the REAL QUESTION is how far they’ll go with the shutdown and whether Trump and the Republicans will be able to frame it correctly, which goes like this:
“The reason your precious government is shutdown is to prevent Trump from building a wall to stop Illegal Immigration.”
To us, it seems like a NO-BRAINER VICTORY for our side, but to our neutered bunch in Congress, they likely don’t think they can win here and are shaking in their pants.
Shut her down. My happiness will abound.
Just how does a the minority party shutdown the government? Somebody walk me through that.
Trump has (remarkable) political instincts.
I think he will take this to the mat, and I think he will drag the GOP along with him, though there are (far) too many in the GOP who are sold-out globalists, who really root for China.
(as do many in the Democratic party, as well)
Trump has been VERY good with his political judgement thus far. I think he is maybe heading toward true greatness.
He understands the importance of the wall.
I think he does anyway. I sure hope he does.
F$&king sad. A very basic sovereignty issue has become political football
Is Trump and the GOP ‘are stupid .
millions of New Democrats will turn FL and TX Blue forever .
We need a new party !
Or, maybe not..............
The dems have 48 senators. Two of those will vote for the funding.
Should not be a problem even with Capt. Queeg, Collins and Murkowski.
Efn rinos.
