I don't believe the tea party will win this war. they don't have the votes in the senate, the only house they control is the house.

So, one of two things will happen.

1. the government will shut down
2. or obamacare will be inacted

Harry Reid will gut the provision in it that defunds Obamacare which in turn will make the Budget Null that congress passed, so the Government will shut down.

Or atleast that's how I understand it, I could be wrong.

Obamacare will be enacted regardless of governmental shutdown.  80% of the funds used for Obamacare are mandatory spending not subject to Congressional appropriations.  That's where this fight becomes really stupid, as it literally cannot be won.
i am so turned on by you.

The Affordable Care Act really does it for you? ;)
the idea that so many who currently cannot receive decent health care will undr the ACA is fucking great.

It's amazing how much McJ misunderstood politics.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I don't wish him any harm, I just wish him gone.

Same.

Just muting him and pulling the plug on his Twitter account would make a vast improvement right now.

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

What I always wanted. But now I'm too old to do much more than watch.

I'd actually hate for him to be killed. I want this to play out.

Yeah. Part of me wants him muted for awhile...but there is that part of me that enjoys watching him slowly hang himself.

My check comes from the state, but I assume The PR's Social Security check will also come.  It would be sure political death to interfere with senior citizens.

Not sure that's how it's going. It could be that America is the one hanging itself.

I do think that the world as a whole would be a better place with him dead. Honestly, the fun in the orange moron hanging himself gets tedious after a while.

Only if one has a reasonable and objective view of 'good'.

So long as you take joy in watching the destruction of a superpower and watching the 'oh so moral'
proving themselves hypocrites, trying to achieve an end which they should have no control over though,
this is pretty great. Not great enough that I'd lift a finger to HELP it along, but I sure won't stop it.

Through all of the negative opinions, thoughts and feelings about President Trump, I wonder how Barron is taking all this.  I think his older sons are cut from a different cloth.  Barron seems so fragile.  (Sorry MommyMode)
