Trump's leadership team


Recommended Posts

51 votes is better. President picks. Senate advises and consents.* That's how the system is supposed to work. As long as Trump doesn't nominate a penguin, his pick should get approved. Enough with the stupid games.

 

*except in undefined periods in which the Senate need not advise or consent.

Merrick Garland agrees with you.

 

Just because Reid changed the rules doesn't mean the Republicans have to do it. But of course they will. And they could change the rules even if Reid didn't, so it's a moot point.

No it isn't actually. You didn't criticize Reid when he did it and now you're criticizing the Republicans when they take advantage of rules that were changed when they weren't in power.

 

That's what makes you a blind partisan idiot.

Speaking of blind, when did I criticize the Republicans? I just stated the fact that they could prove they're more ethical than Reid by not doing it, but I suspect they won't. And they could change the rule back if they thought it was wrong. Just like the criticism they had for Obama using executive orders, but now it's OK.

Since when are people ethical? What planet are you visiting from?

Does Debbie Wasserman Schultz even have a law degree?

I'd like to see the return of the 60 vote threshold along with Senators from both parties voting based on the merit of bills or appointees rather than strict partisan party lines. Unfortunately the chances of us seeing much less partisanship are about none.

Of course they won't. We've had this childish one-upmanship of "Who's the bigger crybabies" going on in Congress for better than two decades now. It sure as hell isn't going to stop now. It won't stop when the Democrats next control Congress, either.

 

And I'm not sure which is scarier. Republicans pull this **** out of childish petulance. Democrats pull this **** out of an honest belief that people who disagree with them don't deserve a voice.

Monday Night Massacre. Trump fired the acting attorney general because she didn't agree that the immigration exectutive order was constitutional and wouldn't enforce it. So now standing up for the constitution is grounds for dismissal.

 

Trump is starting to make Nixon seem rational.

Remember when the Tsarnaevs were on the watch list but weren't watched due to "xenophobia".

 

That was cool when we let them bomb the marathon.
