This is why we should make Trump dictator for life. What you said makes absolutely no sense. What the Republicans need to do is come up with a plan that compromises enough to get passed. They've been shoveling shit around for years about repealing and replacing the Affordable Healthcare Act and other Obama era atrocities and war crimes. They've had plenty of opportunity to do so but they don't have any plan except NOT OBAMA. I can only hope this blaming and name calling bullshit ends soon. Shit or get off the pot and let the illegals have their turn at governing!
I mean turnabout is fair play and all. I don’t blame the Democrats for pulling the same move. I think the whole gamesmanship with it is fucked. Personally for all the apoplectic rhetoric about the government closing I just hear crickets outside my window and I’m heading to the mall. Hopefully I won’t get into an emergency where I need a government employee that’s on paid leave at the moment.
I think a government shutdown is largely a manufactured crisis based on scary rhetoric. Aside from the actual government employees who get completely fucked over until they reopen. They will get back-pay. But that doesn’t help them with their bills that need payment now. Getting hit with late fees and drops in credit score can do serious damage to people that take a long fucking time to undo. It seems like this whole thing is coming down to DACA and CHIP. Both of which are being used as bargaining chips to pressure the dems. But it seems like CHIP was left to die on purpose just for a situation like this. And dreamers are being held hostage to make the dems look bad if they vote No.
Meh, most creditors have hardship deferments and payment options. You can get away with paying a fraction of what you owe as long as you make payments. You just have to call them. As for the workers, it’s not as if the government actually grinds to a halt. Shit like park rangers and SBA loan officers will be screwed, otherwise it’s completely subjective.
So Trump spoke at the March for Life yesterday and my irony meter just about broke. If you think a dude who was raw dogging porn stars right after his third wife gave birth hasn't forced a woman to get an abortion at some point, then I have many many bridges to sell you.
I know by definition, President Trump is considered a politician, but in reality would do you really consider him a politician? I still just think of him as a businessman, trying to figure out how to make everyone shut up and take orders.
He's not even a businessman in a conventional modern sense. He's never had to answer to a board of directors, he's never had to answer to shareholders, he's never had to work his way up the corporate ladder, he's never had to innovate or manage a significant operation. He just has his family help him commit fraud on a large scale ad nauseam.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/25/us/politics/trump-mueller-special-counsel-russia.html We are so far past the point of when this clown should have been impeached that the frog's bones are being bleached at this point.
Yeah... this is a REALLY big deal... but I can't help but thing of the Jon Oliver skit, "is that it? did we get him?"
Oliver had the big red button, the balloons, and the squirrel mascot from that coal company owner he is being sued from. I think they both did the same thing.
But is it a big deal? Because I think we have Big Deal Fatigue at this point and it’s only been one year. He seems to have so many black spots that they’re starting to accept that as the norm. I thought it was a big deal when The Mooch was fired after eleven days. There have been many, many big deals in between then, and yet he’s still being allowed to post on twitter by his zookeepers.
Think about it. They're not "Familiar" or even "Close" to the matter. They were "Told about" it. Hell, I could be one of the sources now because I've been "Told" about it.
Even Hannity confirmed it happened. HANNITY. https://www.thedailybeast.com/sean-...-donald-trumps-attempt-to-fire-robert-mueller
You live in Vegas, so you'll appreciate this game. Place a standing bet against the accuracy of the Times reporting. You may win a dollar here or there, but you'll be shocked at how fast you go broke.
Hannity is such a scumbag. He took that post-9/11 "rah rah 'Merica" baton and fucking RAN with it worse than Usain Bolt. He was at his best when Colmes was there to counter and temper him. Alone, he's gone mad.
