  1. Running this through the Cheeto translator, I take it to mean he did visit the island.
  2. 12 four-day weeks left for the House in 2019. DOTUS is running the clock out, and the Ds continue to play prevent D.
  3. Aunt Nancy and Nadler talk a good game a couple of times a month. That's about it.
  4. The chaos of compiling numbers from lots of sources will be fertile ground for shenanigans by this crooked WH.
  5. And in a few weeks, the Dept of Commerce will release some very R friendly statistics showing citizens in each state. Bill Barr will sprinkle some holy water on the binders and declare them 100% accurate.
  6. Anything bigger than a handful, you're risking a sprained tongue.
  7. If you're not willing to crank up some Lee Greenwood and check that box, then you don't deserve to fill it out.
  8. What's good is what His Highness tells you is good.
  9. I mean, very few of the normal rules apply today. Like Asit said earlier, you can't shame the Rs (at least not easily). It's true that it will be difficult. Like DD said, several Ds in the House derailed everything by insisting on the milquetoast bill that funded concentration camps. You can either give up or fight. In 2019, fighting means 16 hour days, hiring more staffers if necessary, flooding social media/talk shows/latenight shows/etc with information, traveling to the border and documenting the atrocities, etc. It also means jumping feet first into impeachment and getting every bit of info out there. If you're not willing to do all that and more, then the Rs have probably won, and America has lost.
  10. Science and research
  11. ^ It is having problems.
  12. You can only control what you can control. IMO, impeaching him is the only option left for the Ds when the WH responds to every effort at oversight with go pound sand.
  13. It's not like there won't be consequences to being an impeached president running for re-election. Yes, the 40% will scream Deep State Coup as they listen to Rush. The 40% Ds are already aware of his malfeasance. The middle 20% will have to decide if they want to re-elect someone who did all the things outlined in the impeachment hearings.
  14. I think it's going to be very close. I also think he's going to keep upping the ante with his authoritarian actions. I don't think anyone is going to stop him.
  15. The RushFoxHannity brainwashing of the last 3 decades is paying big dividends to Cheeto.
  16. ^ Re: Rs having no shame and bill DOA, you fight. Your points are undeniable, and it's a good argument for our country being fucked beyond retrieval. This is war. You travel en masse down to the border. You visit a lot of facilities that week and over the holiday weekend. You work 16 hours a day. You go on every network that will have you and you show the pictures and video. You hold press conference after press conference exposing the humanitarian atrocities occurring at the border. You explain the shortcomings of the Senate bill, and point out how your bill will ameliorate some of the disgusting things happening in the concentration camps. Or. You give up, and you go have a few beers on July 4th.
  17. They don't have the will, stomach, or desire (or all of the above) to fight.
  18. You mean the sensuous sex symbol type?
  19. House Ds had just visited the concentration camps. You have the momentum. You force the Rs to come to the table. You go get lots of images and videos from the camps. You blast them on social media. You go on offense. Instead? Holiday weekend coming up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  20. Meanwhile 80 immigrants are still standing in a room designed for 40 people. MAGA.
  21. The July 4th holiday was coming up and the Ds decided to punt. That's the bottom line.
  22. So much of this. It's not rocket science. If you're not going to impeach, then be out there every day in the media with several of your members. Have a posterboard that you update every day with the transgressions of the WH. Bombard social media with facts all day and every day. Nancy's good for calling Trump names a couple of times a week, and that's about it. Like hayden said ^, all they've been doing so far is just playing prevent defense.
  23. The young guns, as wildcat called them in the other thread, are going to take over whether Nancy likes it or not. They are already driving the conversation. In the end, they will steamroll her on social media.
