Senate The US Politics discussion

Kuro: I suspect we won't be rid of the Clintons for some time. Twenty years from now, it will be Chelsea and her hedge fund manager husband on the national stage, inspiring the youth vote with her declarations that single-payer health care will "never, ever" happen while palliating the establishment with her promise that the Super-Mecha Drone Hela-Carrier will, under no circumstances, be drawn back from the Polish border skies.

 

lol

These people are delusional. On top of that the senate has already made it clear that they won't be doing this through reconciliation again, so this is effectively dead until next year.

 

Oh, if you insist

 

I'd love to know what she was thinking at that point

 

Because only black women and James Brown have bouffants, of course.

 

Legit answer: James Brown is the only black person they know and can name.

This family member understands what the term 'republican majority' means, right?

Well, that's troubling. Gosh, I wish the corporate Democrats would go away. They've proven themselves ineffectual by losing to Trump of all people already.

It will be interesting if Trump actually is punished for ties to Russia. The FBI and House are investigating, but something tells me that the crooks in Congress will try to shade the truth. Does anyone know if Pence is close to Ryan and McConnell? They may dump Trump in favor of Pence as president. Well, Trump should be punished for a myriad of things, really. I just wish he would resign, and he could say he holds a record with presidents who only lasted a few months, whom I shall not name for obvious reasons that could be misinterpreted by the managers.

 

I have mixed feelings about this. Certainly losing to a reality TV game show host means they should all be canned, but at the same time, I expect whoever they get to be equally inept. Also, until the Clinton/Obama Dems are gone, the party will be useless. Whoever they get and whatever they do they'd better have airtight cyber security and not even click a mouse unless they know they are secure. And nothing will matter as long as voter suppression goes on unstopped, because that is a big part of why they lost.

Really, America is finished. It's over, and it's been over.

 

I'm considering locking this thread for the day so that all our mocking efforts are directed to Brexit in the U.K. thread.

 

You know Trump won't stand for that. I give him til noon before he's found a way to make today's news cycle about him.

 

Well Trump is now saying he's still doing healthcare, and it will be "so easy."



Do you even learn, Trump?

 

I'm reminded of the line from The Dark Knight: Sal Maroni to the Joker: "If it's so easy, why haven't you done it yet?"

 

Sean Spicer said Trump was joking when he said that.

 

Sean Spicer is supposed to try to sell candy on TV, but is forced to only work with the sole ingredient of bull---- in the kitchen.

Sometimes I feel bad... but then I remember he took this job, he's still choosing to be in this job, and he often sounds just as bad.
(Though he knows, maybe Russia is blackmailing him to take this job too... )

 

California is charging two of the people who did those Planned Parenthood 'undercover' videos under their taping without consent laws.

 

So CLinton came out of hiding

She is talking here in the vid about a bunch a men making decisions about women's health.

She looks cool in black I must say.

This profile of Pence's wife is bonkers.

The fact that Pence won't eat dinner alone with any other woman, but his wife, says it all about him and his views about women.

 

Yes. That he's afraid of them, which is why he has to try and control them.
