I get that, I remember the discussion. I took the position that he could and should disregard the policy. Starr and Jaworski both believed they had the authority to indict. This OLC opinion came down after Starr, but it shouldn't change anything for egregious cases like this. I think Mueller thought Barr was a straight shooter based on their past interactions. Mueller also thought Congress would do their job and didn't account for Mitch McConnell.Â
The OLC policy is reckless and dangerous. It's the dictator's dilemma. If you can't charge a criminal President until after he leaves office, you've given him a MASSIVE incentive to commit wholesale voter fraud, or try to delay/prevent an election. Trump will not step down willingly whether he loses 2020 or not. If he wins, he will try to extend his term, just like he has repeatedly "joked" about doing.Â
Please, please, please let him try to do this.
Please.

That's what everyone said about Joe Crowley and he lost to someone that actually gives a fuck. Let Pelosi keep refusing to impeach Trump and keep taking it up the ass from McConnell and see what happens. Pelosi is worse than worthless and this is political malpractice.Â
You're comparing Nancy Pelosi to Joe Crowley?
LOL

The following is not a defense of Schumer.
Who is an alternative Minority Leader at this time?
Will Schumer be ineffective as a potential Majority Leader if the Democrats retake the Senate at some point with only a slim margin?The only other person I can think of is Dick Durbin, his whip.

The sooner Joe Biden steps away from this campaign the better.

We the NAZI House of Representatives hereby fund the US concentration camps of the poor people who want to enter the country and get their $75K of US taxpayer funding per person for their first 5 years after they pass vetting and processing in said concentration camps. Or something like that.
Who is funding them you stupid cunt?(or had the choice to refuse)
Who pays attention to Fox News? Certainly few on this board and not myself. Pelosi brought the bill to the floor as mentioned above. It was her choice to do so.
So you have no idea.
Cool.

What is absurd about it? Did the House of Representatives just vote to fund the concentration camps or not?Â
What does the bill say?

I am not arguing with anything you point out here.
Pelosi absolutely made the correct call to pass the Senate version in front of the holiday and avoid McConnell’s potential gloating.
My point is she lost well in advance when the House didn’t get their funding version passed first. McConnell outflanked her on the timeline when the Senate moved the bipartisan bill to passage.
I believe I recall past times when former Speaker Ryan passed bullshit legislation in the House and then adjourned the House. Then he basically told the Senate to pass the House version or to go to Fuck themselves. Maybe that didn’t happen and my memory is poor, but it is what I recall.Â
Chuck Shumer and the Democrats did Nancy Pelosi no favors.Â
That sucks.

It's not like they aren't already using the emergency rooms for common colds.
Ie, they already are getting free health care. At least with the proposals it would be more cost efficient. Conservatives should be jumping on that train.
This.
It's like everything else. Do you want to pay on the front end and get them more cost efficient care, or do you want to be left holding the tab on the back end when they wind up in the emergency room?

i wonder what happened?Â
jesus fuck, it's not some huge fucking mystery.
I wonder . . .Â
You start out in 1954 by saying, "N*****, n*****, n*****." By 1968 you can't say "n*****" — that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me — because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this," is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "N*****, n*****."

Yea that’s gonna be a big no from me dawg. Based on the last two looney tunes democrats have given a microphone I’m gonna go out on a limb here and call bullshit. Â
No biggie though. I’m sure democrats will think of a new scandal you can jump on after trump gets re-elected.
Two?

Right, but he’s immune to meaningful political damage.  That’s winning in Trump’s book.Â
He's historically unpopular, he isn't expanding his electorate, and he's the underdog in his own re-election campaign. You won't know if he's immune to political damage until after the election.

You misunderstood what I was saying.  Trump loses all the time but he still wins because he fights.  That’s why his base stays with him, he’s always on offense.  He loses one battle just to start another and he keeps going.  The democrats look like they’re just standing there absorbing his bullshit.  It’s not effective.Â
The democrats need a wartime leader.  Someone that can map out a media attack plan over a month with contingencies.  This isn’t politics as usual anymore.  This is warfare and stakes are really high. Â
This is inaccurate. He's completely ineffectual as a president.

You crazy. Clearly they magically appeared when racist trump took office and couldn’t possibly have been the result of years of mismanagement of border and immigration policy.

he’s always been for “medicare for all...who want it” and it’s always seemed like the most realistic to me, as far as something that could successfully be passed into law.Â
there’s just such an obvious counter to m4a for the millions happy with their current situation thru their companies.Â
Millions of people are moved off of their company's plans to Medicare every year with no problem.Â

Like I said they’re not fighting visibly enough.  The game has changed and they still haven’t caught up on how to go on offense.  You don’t even have to win, just fight.  Passing progressive bills is nice but we all know they’re headed to die in the Senate and none of that is drawing media attention.  That’s not changing anything other than some lip service credit claiming on the campaign trail. Â
If they want to know how to fight they could take a lesson from the Parkland kids or AOC.  Take an issue or two, get your taking points/messaging down, and work as a team to drive a national conversation in a certain direction.  Make a big stink about it, make the Republicans have to respond.  Anything to focus the country away from the bullshit coming out of the White House.  You have to deprive Trump of oxygen in the information space.  Otherwise he will keep walking all over you.Â
Man, you really don't understand inside the Beltway stuff.
People who just fight and don't win are losers.

I'm sorry, how on earth is giving this admin more money going to improve the lives of these children which we agree is what Americans want? This is the argument, you're acting as if getting this bill across accomplished anything good in comparison to the bill that the majority of the House introduced earlier. You keep ignoring that last part, a better bill was introduced and of course McConnell didn't bring it up for a vote and instead rammed some watered down piece of shit because Pelosi got "promises" from Pence that he for sure will super-duper tell us when children die now.
That bill was never going to pass the Senate. Everyone in Washington knew it. Once the Democrats in the House pulled their support for the House version, the game was over.Â
Democratic Senators didn't do Nancy Pelosi any favors by supporting the Senate bill.
