The president is listening to his Border Patrol
What about that?

Trump is right about foreign policy
Time for a massive reset against using the military to hammer every area of interest like a nail
Its going to take economic dominance to influence the world, not never ending military deployments to nations that dont want us, didnt invite us, dont threaten us
We need to pray he prevails

I guess McConnell and the rest of the spineless GOPe haven’t read the Constitution. The Constitution gives the President sole power over foreign policy with the exception of approval of ambassadors and treaties and commerce. Other than that, Congress has no power — other than the purse strings. Policy is the purview of the President. I’m amazed that McConnell has actually come out like this rather than his normal lie to Trump’s face and then back stab him using proxies. McConnell is unethical, dishonest and should be looked at for his and his wife’s contacts with China.

They didn’t feel the need to rebuke Obama since they feel Senate has lost power for 30yrs.

All who were not expecting the Republicans to stab President in the back one more time, please comment.

I agree. The arms manufacturers must have jabbed McConnell.
So we’ll end up funding endless wars while the GOPe smirks.

The uniparty strikes as the Deep State commands. Trump is ignoring these apparatchiks because they have been more wrong than a drunken weather bimbo on the local channel 10 news just reading the conventional report.

Trump will continue to ignore these perpetual warmongers and eventually he will be targeted by them and taken out, especially when impeachment fails and Mulehead strikes out. I pray for his safety daily and Trump should have someone he trusts other than the US Secret Service watching his movements and watching their actions.

makes no sense to try too impeach a president prior to an election.

If they go off the range, they are cut off from the $$$$$.

Something which TERM LIMITS would cure. I'd suggest no more than 2 terms (12 years) for Senators. 12 years is a long time.

There are many other terms I would to describe them, but “unaware” is not one of them. They know exactly what they are doing and why they are doing it. They are fully aware.

It looks as though Dan Coats has more influence over Congress than I thought.

That back stabbing POS is conning the weak McConnell to do his bidding.

Talk about surreal.

Well, FWIW, I just called McConnell’s office and gave his staffer an earful.

I was shocked that I actually got to talk to someone....as it’s usually a recording.

Call Mitch, folks...

202-224-3121

Ask for Sen McConnell’s office.

Ask him why he’s doing the bidding of the DS and why he’s letting Coats and Schumer run the Senate.

Oh, and that you support POTUS Trump 1,000% and he should, too.

And who put him on that powerful committee? I don’t even have to ask.

Romney is the leader of the GOP Senate impeachment caucus, McConnell must be feeling Romney’s breath on his neck and now wants to get out front.

If Trump wants to stay in office he may need to adjourn Congress for a few years.
