  1. I'm not saying they will eventually get 4 votes for witnesses, but that ship has not sailed yet. Murkowski, Romeny, Alexander and Collins have all indicated that if they were to vote to allow witnesses, which they may or may not, that vote would come after evidence has been presented, similar to the Clinton impeachment. What they are voting against now are amendments that would ensure witnesses prior to evidence being presented. There is a lot to be outraged about here and I'm sure the "moderate" republicans will let us down like they always do, but to be fair to them they have said the whole time their vote for or against witnesses will come after the presentations. Patience grasshopper.
  2. That has been his position the whole time and does not mean he will not vote for witnesses after evidence has been presented. He may vote to not call witnesses when it is all over, but that is not what he is talking about here. Don't conflate it.
  3. We are assuming he will not be running against a child molester this time around. We learned in the last election that Alabamians will take a Democrat over a child molester, by a 1.7% margin.
  4. In his defense, the constitution has way more than 280 characters.
  5. Love this guy, he came prepared. The big question is, will he put down his vape pen when duty calls and he is needed to perform emergency triage with his scissors.
  6. I always thought it would be funny for a group of black dudes to get together, put on hoodies and baggy pants and walk around highland park, alamo heights, river oaks toting ARs with 10 clips. The hypocritical outrage from the homeowners would be delicious.
  7. If there is enough evidence to convince a grand jury of that, then he should be indicted and face a jury of his peers. I'm not going to hold my breath. Barr is just throwing some red meat to his Q base, they're getting restless.
  8. If only self-righteousness were a crime in America.
  9. That should help her chances for re-election, go full Trumpian. Not sure she will have another Senator vacate their seat so she can be appointed back to the Senate after losing yet another election.
  10. Perhaps, but even back at $100 oil, most shale drillers never achieved free cash flow.
  11. I doubt too much in the upstream sector, there was more focus on efficiency. But the capital restraints in 2020 forward are going to be much more severe than the 2015-2017 downturn. There were still plenty of people willing to lend back then against some very optimistic reserve reports. Those lenders are getting burned now and are not going to repeat those mistakes in the near term.
  12. Sadly, I think this is just the beginning. Going to be a rough couple of years in Houston.
  13. Has Trump ever been on time for an address? I swear he is always 10 min late. Does he think this adds to the anticipation?
  14. That would require 67 votes in the Senate. So, zero%.
  15. Starting WW3 to troll the libs. Classic.
  16. With debt and American blood. But, we get absolutely nothing out of it, so good trade off.
  17. Would make Afghanistan look like Grenada.
  18. It would be pretty funny if there was a credible threat to Trump properties and the US had to issue a travel ban to all Trump properties.
  19. The hillbillies in Kentucky like it, that's all Mitch cares about. These republicans march to the beet of Trump's twitter handle, nothing else matters to them. There is no line Trump could cross that would reverse their sycophancy. If Trump tweets that the Senate should not call witnesses, they will not call witnesses.
  20. It was a joke. I was pretending that land could talk, which it cannot.
