From abortion bans to Obamacare cuts to, maybe, an empty Supreme Court chair, the Republicans already know exactly what they’ll do if they get control of both houses of Congress.
Passing a federal law banning almost all abortions after 20 weeks. Defunding parts of Obamacare. Weakening the Environmental Protection Agency. Kneecapping the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Elizabeth Warren’s baby, the new agency within the Fed to police consumer fraud. And—maybe, just maybe—letting a Supreme Court seat sit vacant until after the next presidential election.
That’s just the start of what happens if the Republicans win back the Senate this November. Imagine, posits a top aide to Mitch McConnell, a steady stream of legislation, much of it conservative, that will force Barack Obama to start vetoing bills for essentially the first time in his presidency.

John Cornyn won’t let that happen.
All good things
How about impeaching Obama and Holder, repealing Obamacare and eliminating the EPA, BLM and IRS?
History has already shown us what will happen, they will roll over on their backs like a submissive dog.
Don’t forget the Education Dept.!!!!!!!
If the GOPE takes over the senate, they will do nothing but collect their pay, play golf, make speeches and attend fundraisers.
And Ditch Mitch will be at his side...
If Republicans take over the Senate, I bet the first thing that gets passed is the most comprehensive immigration bill ever imagined.
My dog LOVES rubby tummies; Too bad the GOPe Senate leaders don’t feel the same way...
.....and then hump Obama’s leg.
LOL, U R BAD!
Don’t forget praise their friends on the other side of the aisle.
Michael Tomasky (born 1960) is a liberal American columnist, journalist and author. He is the editor in chief of Democracy, a special correspondent for Newsweek / The Daily Beast, a contributing editor for The American Prospect, and a contributor to The New York Review of Books.
Well, it’s true! :)
The Republicans didn’t do that when they had all three branches of government. What makes anyone think they would start now with a more liberal Senate?
Boy, I bet he got a lot of dates in HS. /s. (Which, ultimately, folks, is the mentality we’re dealing with.)
Looks like he’d lick a snake.
Daily Beast’s Tomasky: ‘Democrat’ Racism is a ‘Fantasy;’ Minimizes Sharpton, Reid’s Remark
“This is something conservatives don’t understand. Or rather, they understand it—but they can’t acknowledge it. They can’t acknowledge this larger context of Democratic support for the things that have mostly improved black people’s lives and Republicans’ almost total opposition to them since at least the 1980s....”
While Tomasky cited Biden, Reid, and Clinton, the Daily Beast columnist brushed them aside as not “real, seriously racist.”
What changes when the GOP takes over? Nothing, absolutely nothing that the D’s wouldn’t do.
