WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 3 minutes ago, nkreed said: The Senate vote was just posturing for the senators to remove blame for the shutdown. That said McConnell has doubled down now on his stance, taking heat off of his party for future elections. Solely McConnell can be currently blamed for holding up the vote. And for all the use of "temper tantrum" it's unbecoming of any adult to speak like this. Both sides need to grow the f up. Democrats: "Hi we passed a bill to fund the government, which included border security. We can debate and negotiate the other thing you want once that is done." Trump: "No. Give me it now. I will be responsible for shutting the government down." Democrats: "...ok." Trump: "...are you ready to give me what I want yet?" Democrats: "...No. We said we can discuss it after the government is open." Trump: "Why did you shut the government down then?!!!" Yeah...both sides. Kind of like how it's both sides when someone commits vehicular manslaughter and the others shouted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It truly shows how immature or government really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Well, Chuck's Washington phone number is busy (shocking!) so I called his local satellite office. The lady was very nice. I laid in on the human trafficking angle saying "I know there is no way he can support that". Anyhoooo they will ask for your name and zip at the satellite office: Chuck Schumer satellite office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NANCY AND CHUCK WON'T GIVE ME MY WHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAL" The spending Bills passed the House. They are the same bills that the Senate unanimously passed back in December, 100-0. It's just lil' Baby Donny having his temper tantrum that is holding things up. Nice slight of hand. A voice vote is not the same thing as a unanimous vote. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have had Charter/Spectrum/Time Warner/Adelphia cable! Listen, votes are taken on the Hill for a variety of reasons. There have been numerous votes taken for the sole purpose of trying to frame the discussion. Let there be no doubt about it, the dems are desperately trying to take any leverage Trump might have. This issue was basically solved 18 months ago. There was 25 billion for the wall and a DACA solution. A federal judge ruled against Trump's rescission of an Obama Executive Order. When that happened the dems reneged on the deal. Eventually SCOTUS will get involved and give Trump back his leverage. The dems are just hoping to delay funding the wall long enough to affect the 2020 election. The dems are just being partisan hacks and don't have the country's interest at heart. .

The Democrats refused to negotiate in good faith after Trump agreed to fund the government last year. In fact, it's the same thing that happened to Reagan back in the 1980's. You do understand that the Democrats are lying two-faces bastards who have a history of reneging, right? Does that compute in your little NPC brain, or is it just fixated on #ORANGEMANBAD until you receive new programming? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump offered DACA and it was rejected by Chuck. It wasn't reneged. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump didn't renege on anything - it is very clear (and well documented) that Cryin' Chuck walked away AFTER Trump offered more than they were asking for on DACA. They walked away when some dipschiff judge decided that Trump couldn't use an executive order to override an Obama-era memo on prosecutorial discretion. Stop being an NPC, you look like a buffoon.

It's rather glorious watching you step up to bat and make a big swing and it's going through distance and someone reaches up and grabs you by the kitty every single time. I bet it's soft and moist by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
