Once again if your gonna be dumb you gotta be tough you must be a pretty tough ombre Tibs . But i will wait for your common sense reply to the first sentence .. He isn't embarrassing the country, is moving real legislation to address real problems and he is conducting a foreign policy uniting "our" allies (democratic countries which are friends with the portion of this country into democracy, sorry authoritarian wannabes) and he isn't trying to draw all the attention to himself, refreshing!

Well given some of the stuff he said i can see to give you the statement of causing some embarrassment but not every one took every single freakin thing he said literally like you so you have to take that into consideration . But what real registration ? If you mean repealing laws pertaining to the southern border seeing as the border is over whelmed with people waiting for those laws to go away so crossing and staying is easier & NO ONE in this administration is admitting it . Even after some have called for Mayorkas to be removed . https://nypost.com/2022/12/14/mayorkas-no-decisions-on-title-42-border-as-thousands-of-migrants-flood-texas/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3f1ywxx8QN8 KABOOM !! NUMBERS AND ALL PUT THIS IN YOUR PIPE AND SMOKE IT !! I don't care what news outlet it is but i suppose they have access to these numbers why would they lie about it this is Bidens answer to a problem ? So if this is the type of thing your talking about this is great leadership at it's best . And now i'm hereing things about a tax raise WTH is next ??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted January 1, 2023 Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 A small faction of “never Kevin” Republicans is threatening to ensure McCarthy is denied the 218 votes needed to win the speaker’s election. But a larger group of Republicans who have pledged to vote for “only Kevin” are making clear they won’t support any other returning members of Congress for the role. The two positions are seemingly irreconcilable, and members on both sides of the intra-party standoff predict the speaker’s election will require multiple ballots for the first time since 1923. McCarthy and his allies are still trying to negotiate a truce that will allow him to get the votes he needs on the first ballot, but as of Friday afternoon no compromise had been reached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can’t even function like a majority when they have one. Maybe Nancy can coach them up on how to tack the whip….

They are a bunch of corrupt cowards. Unlike the left, who are corrupt bullies. They both suck big time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dems flipped over 40 seats in 2018 with Pelosi in the same role so it was a fairly easy decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too sane for the crazy caucus, too crazy for the moderates. He’s a squish, just following the way the wind blows with no real backbone or principles. What does he actually stand for? He’s been anti-Trump, and pro-Trump, and condemning Trump, and then groveling to Trump. You can negotiate with a guy like that to an extent, but you can’t really trust him not to throw you overboard the moment it’s politically convenient. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
