Oh Schumer. Ooops...

Nah, that’s DOA.

Sorry I zoned to McConnell.

He will get a standing ovation by the GOP when he gives his SOTU. You don’t know what you are talking about!

They’ve given Trump quite a bit, including signing huge trade deals and judges. So, stop whining and complaining, we are winning!

It will likely come down to who the base dislikes more Gideon/Shumer or Collins.

Schumer’s multi amendments to get Bolton’s testimony sound like Dr. Seuss Green Eggs and Ham.

Could he testify in a house?

Could he testify with a mouse?

Could he testify in a box?

Could he testify with a fox?

I believe — at this point — I would actually vote for Hillary Clinton if she ran against Mitt Romney...

We're no all going to think exactly alike, and I may agree with you more than you realize.

Take care.

I think Hillary is connected. Too many people mysteriously drop dead around her, to protect her and her husband.

That Epstein situation wreaks.

We could both gone on with that for days.

She also has national and international connections that are not good. She could do incredible harm to this nation.

Look Romney is a jerk. There’s no doubt about it. He’s not our kind of guy and he would screw things up.

Would he screw things up on her level?

That woman MUST EVER GAIN total power in the U. S.

We can not allow her to walk into that White House in charge.

NEVER

We have to do everything in our power to prevent it, legally.

I don’t like Mitt, but if it’s him against her, I’m in the voting booth early, just in case something happens to me later in the day.

It would have put them out of reach, to win on anything.

**************

And here we are so close to wrapping this up with a win and Mitch decides to give the Dems FOUR MORE DAYS to make more mischief. Its like failing to run the clock out in a game in which you have a narrow lead and turning the ball back over to your opponent. STUPID beyond belief.

These are treacherous people. Why give them and their allies in the Deep State (with all their powerful surveillance tools and media support) more time to launch attacks and do further damage to the president?

The Republicans are so weak and stupid and pathetic it boggles the mind.

For all this effort this week and now this voting...and voting again...

Isn’t what the democrats just tried to do a Constitutional Crisis? Isn’t it...

How do we stop this bullsh*t? This has ceased to be politics or political...sure Trumps winning...but what happens 6 years from now? What are we going to do if Republicans haven’t learned a damn thing?

No offense to anyone here, but Reagan was great...and frankly his presidency was squandered in the following years. President Trump is the best we’ve had in a very, very long time...but we need a candidate 5-6 years from now that can stand on his shoulders. And we need to squash these democrats.

As far as I am concerned many of them need to be tried for treason, lying to the American people, etc. it’s not just about stopping an opposing point of view anymore.

We can no longer be sleeping giants.

Well, I believe that the key to that is Barr going after the Deep State members.

Once those efforts are clear to everyone, even if they can’t grasp it all, it clears the way to go after their partners in Congress.

I do want to see something along those lines, but then some of the highest players in the game, are compromised themselves.

It just sucks to know this much.

The sense of futility is strong.

I think they are holding out hope Roberts will order them.

and that indeed shows the stupidity of the Democrats, since Roberts himself stated that he would not attempt to influence these proceedings, by breaking a tie vote and would stand by the Senate rules that a tie vote would result in failure. Yet these morons continue to troll these proceedings with their nonsense.

The TURDle is going to play the delay game long enough to allow his assbite Rat friends to drop another accusation “bomb” like they did in the SCOTUS nomination.
