Emmer is a snake, he called Trump just to get on his good side so Trump will say to go with him, bet behind the scenes he trashes Trump to his RINO buddies
Trump has learned little about draining the swamp.
Not so - there are too many RINOs (really Democrats) who would vote for the priests or Pontius Pilate.
I don’t think he should be using Jesus. ymmv.
We always hear Trump can be rolled when people suck up. Emmer is a scumbag l hope Trump sees this shallow BS for what is is.
Imagine Trump is on to this guy, which of course he is. Now read trumps statement
Trump is going to pick one of the losers because they are who are in charge. That’s not trumps fault
Trust nothing you see in The Mail. They despise Trump
Echoing another (later to be a) New Yorker, John Lennon.
Trump has a certain way of communicating!
Lennon not your “fave” either, presumably (see #10 please).
There is now more merit than ever to the idea of finding someone outside of the House to be Speaker - there are too many personal grudges across the board for any member to get the votes.
And perhaps the Speaker’s powers should be reduced to parliamentary only, and the Majority Leader position is what sets the agenda, like in the Senate for the Senate President.
Another Disaster Trump pick .
Like his recent picks Kevin McCarthy and Ronna Romney and Dr OZ
were all disasters .
Trump likes the Swamp Monsters but plays a charade of fighting the swamp .
Emmers is worse than McCarthy.
Trump is wrong on this. That den of thieves on capitol hill would never vote for Jesus as their speaker.
The Republic (I.e., what is left of it) will do just fine even if picking a new speaker takes several more votes. This battle between conservatives in the House and the establishment is worth having. Now is not the time to go wobbly on trying to elect a speaker who will return the budget to regular order and stop the give-away foreign welfare. No more “baseline” budgets, omnibus spending bills consisting of 5,000 pages which no one reads, and no more continuing resolutions.
The story is there to cause dissent....
Trump said he hasn’t made any decision on who to support, as he’s going to wait for a while to see how things shake out...
If you have something real to say then spit it out.
Eeeee, yeah...
His own people invented a crime so they could crucify him...
Sheesh!
Okay then (from Wikipedia):
In March 1966, London’s Evening Standard ran a weekly series titled “How Does a Beatle Live?”[4] that featured John Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison and Paul McCartney. The articles were written by Maureen Cleave,[4] who knew the group well and had interviewed them regularly since the start of Beatlemania in the United Kingdom. She had described them three years earlier as “the darlings of Merseyside”,[4] and in February 1964 had accompanied them on their first visit to the United States.[4][5] She chose to interview the band members individually for the lifestyle series, rather than as a group.[4]
Cleave carried out the interview with Lennon in February[6] at his home, Kenwood, in Weybridge. Her article portrayed him as restless and searching for meaning in his life; he discussed his interest in Indian music and said he gleaned most of his knowledge from reading books.[7] Among Lennon’s many possessions, Cleave found a full-sized crucifix, a gorilla costume, a medieval suit of armour[8] and a well-organised library with works by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Jonathan Swift, Oscar Wilde, George Orwell and Aldous Huxley.[3] Another book, Hugh J. Schonfield’s The Passover Plot, had influenced Lennon’s ideas about Christianity, although Cleave did not refer to it in the article.[9] She mentioned that Lennon was “reading extensively about religion”,[3] and quoted him as saying:
“Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn’t argue about that; I’m right and I’ll be proved right. We’re more popular than Jesus now; I don’t know which will go first – rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It’s them twisting it that ruins it for me.”[3][10]
Cleave’s interview with Lennon was published in The Evening Standard on 4 March under the secondary heading “On a hill in Surrey ... A young man, famous, loaded, and waiting for something”.[11]
