There will be blood.
It’s all about THE WALL.
All “republican butthurt” stems from it, has from the very start.
Stupid anger.
60 of 60 Democrats voted Ocare.
Only 3 of 52 Republicans voted Ocare.
Quit stupid commenting, get off your fanny
and elect more Republicans.
The fundamental problem is that Trump listened to his liberal Democrat daughter and son-in-law who more than anything want to be accepted by the Establishment. So they convinced themselves they were helping Trump by convincing him to hire the RNC lackey as his chief of staff, the longtime #2 at Goldman to run his council of economic advisors, Bushie neocons and generals to run State, Defense, the NSC, etc., and somehow he wouldn’t be done in by all of that.
Trump took a fundamentally wrong turn befor he even set foot in office. God bless him, but he was up against it before he decided to fill his own team with traitors.
You are going along with the ruse. When the ruling party doesn’t implement what it promised that is because they don’t want to. With discipline leadership could get them in line. In this situation, just as when Obama was poised to veto, most members vote as if they really want what they promised, while just a few, in seats safe from it, vote as leadership really wants.
Oh, and of course it takes a majority vote for the party members in the body to put in a leader—so the leadership represents the majority of, in this case, GOP senators.
Term limits would make a big difference.
Obamacare was is and shall always be owned by the Liberals. To date the REPUBLICANS have not touched it and never voted for it to begin with.
Right on, Rush!
They have given us no reason to waster our time going to the polls in 18. The Uniparty is on full display at this point.
If I were Trump I would push for a big tax cut and win or lose after it was over I would run against the congress, BOTH parties as a bunch of do nothing, corrupt thieves.
I have never voted for a demonrat and never will
“So they’ve done it. They campaigned saying they were gonna do it, and they did it. Now when they run the show, they can’t do it. For some reason now, “Well, we can’t take the benefits away from the governors and some people, no, we can’t — it’s too entrenched and entitled, we can’t do it. It’s been the law of the land for too many years. We just can’t take it away.” What do they think’s gonna happen to them when it’s reelection time? What are they thinking?”
Just a wild guess, the ‘establishment’ (which most of them are a part of) were so taken aback and surprised that an unwashed “outsider” won the election, that they’ve vowed to never let that happen again. Like Rush said, they do not think the public is capable of making good decisions, and worse, they don’t care what we think or vote for. I’ve posted a few times here before, unless steps are taken right now to ensure our elections are legit, we’ll never have an election here again where the outcome isn’t already predetermined. The establishment is mad as hell that we put Trump into office and they’ll do whatever it takes to ensure something like that never happens again.
The only way you can get them is through a COnvention of the States. As is the custom, conservatives are suicidally split on this subject.
The real problem lies with the GOP. The rank and file are decent enough and have the right philosophy, but parasitic leaders have risen to run the party into the ground. McConnell and Ryan are not new phenomenon - REMEMBER HASTERT, THE CHILD MOLESTER?
I just heartily hate them. Like with Barry Goldwater, the Party “LEADERSHIP” abandoned Trump like rats leaving a sinking ship.
This became obvious to me during the W Presidency. Nice to see Rush catching on.
“Nice to see Rush catching on.”
It really is!
I don’t think the establishment is afraid of anyone over Obamacare. I yhink they are liberals who actually want Obamacare. They’re working together.
How do we fight that?
The only thing I can think of is to primary it with carefully vetted candidates.
Good Luck!!!
I agree term limits would make a difference
They won’t give him a tax cut either.
They want another Bush or some other pliant, corrupt, low intellect tool in office they can manipulate while getting money from the insurance companies in return for subsidies from our tax dollars and state monopolies which strangle competition.
Good points.
Ditto! He ran his last election on repealing Obamacare. I hope his Kentucky constituents remember his behavior for his next election cycle.
