With tRumps latest bullshit saying funding for the wall is a must, the Dems need to go hard after him.

Someone experienced, safe, like a Steny Hoyer needs to come out attacking, hard.

Publicly call out tRump for his inexperience and strongly imply that he is a Russian agent.

IMO there is no way to resolve the tRump situation other than going directly at him for all the things we know are true but are holding back waiting for Mueller. Someone needs to go out and start throwing punches. Harry Reid used to do it from the Senate, someone in the House needs to take that style and go after tRump.

Discussing the Shultz/Warren fight, Andrea actually used this example. Of course the 2% doesn't kick in until 50 million, but you could have some school teacher who inherits property, artwork, etc, and then would have a huge tax liability.

WHAT! So 0.0002% would be hit with the extra tax on the amount OVER 50 million. And she wants to focus on some hypothetical school teacher who it going to be 'harmed.'

She obviously has a clean background otherwise the Russians and their puppet would be using the intel.

Republicans have had three years to handle the tRump situation. Obama warned them, off ramp ignored. HRC warned them, off ramp ignored, McCain .... ignored, Comey ... ignored, Kelly... ignored.

The republican voter and tRump base have no real core values, no soul. So they can comfortably ignore all the conflicting actions from tRump.

They have very few off ramps left, and I am more convinced than ever that they will not take any remaining off ramp. Due to no core values, no soul, they would rather burn the whole thing down than to give in. They are trying to limit the power given to the Dems after the last election and the media is assisting by not calling out the anti democracy actions.

IMO we all need to come to the realization that they will do anything to hold power and to take out their enemies. Consider, Russia is not there enemy, Democrats are, and they will have no issue treating fellow Americans, blue states, as their enemies. We also must realize that the lack of core values makes them more difficult to change. They don't care if we end up in a Lose/Lose situation. As long as they think liberals are feeling more pain then they will allow tRump to continue. Remember tRump went down the path that Govt workers were Democrats. Works on his base, truth doesn't matter to these folks.

Go Chiefs!

I really can't hate the Rams as a 49er Fan, nor the Seahawks. I can hate the Cowboys, because they are the fucking Cowboys.

But I have grown to hate Belichick and Brady as much as Landry and Staubach.

Sat down and turned up the volume on the Andrea Mitchell show. She has an new Dem Rep speaking about the shut down and she wasn't cutting him off. Then she played a portion of the tRump rant to the Pentagon and without prompting, immediately said the pResident wasn't being truthful. Then she went back to the Congressman, then played the AOC clip "in search of Mitch," then didn't make any disparaging comment about AOC and went back to the Congressman. (who got in a good dig about Mitch being over on K Street)

Seems as if some of the money motivated are tiring of tRump.

Clearly called out the process when asked by Kasie Hunt (what are Dems doing to end shutdown?), Hirono clearly explained that the bill from the House ALREADY is a compromise, and is what the Repubs approved in December. When queried about a Veto override she said Repubs need to act like a coequal branch of Govt. She then added in this little nice nugget.

Seems like everyone knows the process except for one person. A FUCKING GENIUS LINE! Again, everyone with basic civics knowledge knows this. tRump, the Repukes, and the media are ignoring 250 years of successful history and the Constitution. So what the hell could Kasie say? Hirono set up the response as a slam at tRump AND dared anyone to show their ignorance and take his position. BTW, Kasie moved on to an unrelated question.

The media constantly saying 'maybe the only way out is to declare a state of emergency.' Americans polled saying it is the Presidents fault, and then Democrats fault.

I am truly shocked by the collective ignorance of the media and the voting public. This is basic 7th grade Civics knowledge.

Congress sends a bill to President, he signs it or vetoes the bill. Congress overrides veto or not.

That is the only way to resolve this issue, it has been a process used for almost 250 years, successfully. The media is obviously complicit in chipping away at these processes. But I would expect some reporters to constantly bring up the fact that the House is passing bills. The process in the Senate is currently breaking down and cameras should be parked outside of Mitch's office and home until he explains why he is not doing the job he has sworn to perform.

Ignoring the fact the Donnie Dipshit and the Repubs didn't push through the wall in the two years they were in full control. Ignoring the fact that the Dems just won a landslide election where the Wall and Caravan were front and center. Ignoring the fact that the wall does nothing for national security. Ignoring the fact that Donnie is having his way with the diversion and Repukes are trying to blame this on Dems.

Can we all just please focus that the Donnie said Mexico was going to pay for it. The end, don't ask for a fucking dime!

Yet I see many posts recommending Pelosi do this or that. (Reminder, she didn't run the House for the last two years) It would be interesting to see a venn diagram of those who complain that Dems don't fight hard enough and also suggest solutions for Donnie Dipshit and the Repukes to get out of the shit hole they are in. A shit hole they dug, and filled with their own shit.

Are innocent people being hurt, yes, that is why it is such a huge story. But give in and it will be more people hurt later.

Uncouth, below their office, but it would have been the best ever!
