The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: Harm to Ongoing Matter - Page 194 - Politics and Economics

I think guys like Ross and Graham are just stupid people that were duped by Trump. They live in a world where needing money for necessities doesn't exist. That's why they have no problem w/ the government being shutdown.

It wouldn't surprise me if these guys think money is for investing or buying property. When was the last time any of these clowns went grocery shopping?

the short term Federal shutdown income loan that totally doesn’t have any strings attached or surprise interest rate elevation is the BEDROCK of the economy.

Can Nancy be the Senate Minority Leader too? Or perhaps we can just make Schumer run everything through her office?

Damage control. The Republicans want to know what Cohen is gonna tell the House so they can craft a response.

Wall does nothing for all the foreigners that land at our airports every minute of the day. Build a dome imo.

This WaPo article about Pelosi's SOTU win is good:

The result of this is that the obscuring fog of both-sidesism lying atop this whole situation has been dissipated. What has been laid bare, instead, is a simple reality: Democrats actually do control one chamber of Congress, after having won a major electoral victory, and that actually does give them some veto power over Trump’s conduct and agenda.

Quote:

My point is that it gets at the deeper problem we all face here: Trump and his GOP enablers are proceeding as if the 2018 elections never happened.

This is the whole reason for shutting down the government: To break the influence that the Democratic House has over whether Trump’s wall will be funded, by threatening severe harm to the country until Democrats rubber stamp what he’s demanding as the price of ending that damage.

Quote:

Democrats are now operating from the premise that this is really what’s at stake: Whether Trump and McConnell will recognize the outcome of the last election going forward.
