1. He is a punk.

2. Extremely punchable.

4. Eminently slappable and punchable. Quintessential doucheboy.

[Fla Dem]

12. A number of those on the Republican side House & Senate, Jim Jordan, David Nunes, Mitch McConnell,

Doug Collins, Kevin McCarthy and I'm sure many others. Seriously, don't know why Republicans come across as assholes and bullies.. I don't get that same vibe from Democrats.

13. It's a macho Social Darwinism privilege Christian thing

God put us here to work hard to put us on top so we earned it and nothing you can do about it. Superiority seems to yield a handful of cases of abuse.

3. And what happens when Trump vetos it?

Not enough people to override the veto.

14. +1

And unfortunately, Idi Chumpin is sure to veto anything that even suggests a check and balance of what he believes to be medieval king-like powers.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

17. The House and Senate should still do their jobs

even if Trump vetoes every single check on his power. That it even got a vote in Mitch McConnell's Senate is fairly stunning IMHO.

[ooky]

5. If he wants to attack Iran, he will do it. He doesn't care what

Congress does. He knows if he did that McConnell and the Senate majority won't do a damn thing about it other than express concerns.

6. Finally one thing they get right.

7. So....who thinks tRump will "learn his lesson" from this??...?

[Rider3]

8. LOL!

[volstork]

10. Susan Collins.

Milquetoast...

11. More like a jellyfish--

Spineless, floats with the current, and feeds from the bottom.......

16. You are not incorrect.

I am currently in Maine for work, and you wouldn't believe the BS ads she is running...

[ScratchCat]

9. Sad state of affairs

I mean, Congress is passing a bill to limit the President's "War powers" when its the Congress and only the Congress who has the constitutional authority to declare war. Upsidedownbackwards world strikes again.

15. too bad that last word is there. /nt

18. Tom Cotton is a fucked up little punk.

And this is not an insult, as I am a gay man. . .

Mr. Cotton supposedly regularly seeks sexual liaisons with other like-minded men. . . And while this is not something for him to be ashamed about, he obviously IS. . .

I do have friends in that shit hole commonly known as Arkansas (my apologies to any nice Arkansans on here) who are in the know about Tom Fucking Cotton. . . . That state has about the WORST politicians of any state in the country, and that is a high bar with dumb shits like Devin Nunes or that fucking moron, Louie Gohmert, or that fool, Matt Gaetz. . .
