it's time Democrats show our great President some support

Us democrats should all come out rallying with MAGA hats cheering Trump for his decision to strike a deal with Dem leadership. We should give a favorable opinion of him in public polls. A lot of the media seems to be persuaded he's finally moderating. Probably not, but maybe we can make that a reality.
Of course we won't ever vote for him, but we can make it look like we're ready to support him. It'll make the trump supporters' heads explode. They chose a candidate that needed affirmation which they thought only they could provide and use as leverage.

bravely to disagree about all our other principles, and everyone is now only waiting excitedly to learn any details about exactly what we agreed about and what we did not, after which we will be able to agree better about exactly what we do agree about and what we do not, which some peple think might even make further conversation possible

So much at play here.

1. Trump will most likely be impeached. A fleeting love fest.
2. We may end up missing the chaos and dysfunction when a "fully operational" Pence administration comes to office. Pence will have no time for the D's. Unless 2018 proves to be glorious.
3. How will the Executive Producer of The Apprentice react when he hears Schumer's hot mic?

I need to refill my popcorn.

who won the presidency by 3 million votes. What if we took your thinking further and celebrated HRC, all plus-3million of us, and we ignored Trump. Maybe it would be like pouring water of the wicked witch of the west?

"Us democrats"? LOLOLOLOLOL

I say let him fuck himself with his tone-deaf idea of governance, and may his many cult-members rue the day they voted for that piece of shit, and do it forever and ever! Because I'm nice that way.

Peace out, beachjustice!
