Not exactly. If the usual suspects and Rand supported it then he would have likely supported it. McConnell doesn’t strike me as an idealogue on issues. Can’t give him that much credit.

McConnell is just looking to get it over with and move on to the next agenda item like the lame bureaucrat he is.

Why someone who cares so little remains in that job instead of retiring with a fat pension is beyond me.

The government that the Founders gave us is dead as designed.What we have now is something I don’t recognize and needs to be stopped.

Yep. Mitch also wouldn’t bring the CR to vote because he knew the President would veto it. But I guess Mitch had his chain yanked by the Chamber of Commerce and other open borders lobbyists.

I said to myself “No, they won’t.” Same with the failed rivals (Kasich, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz) who would unite with him. No they won’t. Cruz later helped.

Without exception, they have one thing in common: they are career politicians. And career politicians hate that Trump did not pay his party dues, get in line and wait his turn.

EXACTLY!!!!

Just what is Congress going to do to protect AMERICAN CITIZENS from this true INVASION? Right now, they are doing nothing. If an illegal commits a crime they are released and as our Pres. said at CPAC, they show up 3% of the time!! What if an American citizen did that? Especially those of us who work and have some funds to pay the fine??...We get JAILED or thrown in prison with a record. NOT FAIR.. Our lawmakers from Congress down to local have created a system that is so ungodly and unfair.

“VICTORY FOR THE RIGHTEOUS IS JUDGMENT FOR THE WICKED”

WTP realize our POTUS TRUMP is DESTROYING the Democrat party; that he is destroying the RINO/Pubbie party as well is just a bonus. The fact that McTurtle is helping is no surprise to anyone. These turncoats are first and foremost TRUMP’s enemies. HOWEVER, they are OURS too, no matter what party one claims. Mitch’s time will come when he must stand for something other than peeing. (NOT certain he can actually do that so well.)

They need to put forth and act an an alternative, such as using the existing drug corridor laws.

It going to be vetoed.

Kabuki theater. The votes aren’t there to override it.

McConnell said he would support the emergency declaration in exchange for Trump signing a terrible budget.
...................................

This weasel-like scumbag is exactly why no sane person would ever give a penny to any Republican organization. Contribute only to incumbents and candidates who are 100% supportive of our President. Those are are not are in league with the ‘rats who are hell-bent on destroying our Constitutional Republic.

Is Sen. McConnell saying that Senate resolution of disapproval for the peoples’ wall may pass on simple majority vote as opposed to constitutionally undefined Senate 60 vote supermajority rule that anti-PDJT seems to like the best?

If such is the case then the simple majority vote, although often unconstitutionally ignored imo, is the constitutionally guaranteed approach for post-17th Amendment ratification ANTI-PDJT DEMOCRATS and RINO senators on this issue. /sarc

"Article I, Section 3, Clause 1: The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislature thereof, for six Years; and each Senator shall have one Vote [emphasis added]."

BTW, isn’t McConnell up for his disapproval vote in 2020?

Corrections, insights welcome.

Yes, great idea. Deputize those who are willing to confront the invaders, and turn us loose at the border.

Just remember that any donation to a Republican incumbant NOT on that list will be shared with the Republicans who ARE on that list through “dues” paid to the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

What went on in the 1770s is going on today, taxation without representation. We pay the salary of these scumrat mofos yet they do not represent us. They represent foreign nationals, drug gangs, plutocrats, communists, perverts, child killers and traitors.


Spot on.

I did a little reading on the Whig Party. A lot similarities to the GOP. Of course the Stupid Party career politicians are far too arrogant to ever see the train about to run right over them.
