Implying that the democrats of the 80s even remotely resemble the liberals of today.
Trump is pitching this cooperation for several reasons, one being optics. He stands there with his hand extended to ChuckU and Crazy Nancy and sounds perfectly reasonable and sane while they seem like obstructionist same ole, same ole politicians. Plus it makes the Republicans look bad because they can’t get on board to do anything. In a way triangulation that Clinton tried to practice.
He may peel off a few democrats from this tactics and the Republicans will eventually have to get their heads out of their a$$es and actually behave like a majority party. Will see.
That loathsome toad O’Neill got a whole lot of socialist crap in exchange for Ronnie rebuilding the military. Work with socialists, get socialism.
