Do-Nothing Congress Reaches 200 Days Today with Obamacare and Massive Taxes Still In Place!
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 23,2017 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 07/23/2017 7:13:38 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Speaker Ryan told Tucker Carlson:

Let me just give you a sense of what we’re planning in the first 200 days:

* Repealing and replacing Obamacare, the biggest entitlement reform in a generation. * Overhauling the IRS Tax code. * Rebuilding the military. * Doing infrastructure. * Repealing harmful regulations. * Repealing Dodd-Frank and the Choice Act which would replace it. …and funding the wall is part of this too.

Speaker Ryan’s Congress began this session on January 3rd, 2017 which means Speaker Ryan’s 200 days came to an end yesterday on Saturday, July 22nd. Little to nothing has been accomplished in spite of Congress being controlled by the same party as the President.

President Donald Trump has accomplished more than could ever be expected since his election.

The Stock Market is up 18% and in every major economic indicator the US is in better shape. Many of his goals have been met. (See list of accomplishments at 6 months here.)

What has Congress acheived?

Failed Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blew their first 200 days and accomplished nothing material.

They need to be replaced by Republicans in Congress or they will be replaced by a Russian Fever Infested Democrat Congress instead.

Curing the ills of the GOP Establishment = Fire Senate Leader, Mitch McConnell, Fire House Speaker, Paul Ryan, Retire deadbeat, turncoat, traitor, Senator, John McCain. End of story.

The last thing these rats want to lose is their office.

I think one way to get them motivated not to stall President Trump is to call for an immediate recall on guys like Rat Boy Ryan. If we can get them out sooner, then that would be great.

If that fails, then Primary them. If the Primary fail, then cross over and vote for the top opponent.

The message needs to be sent. If you stall President Trump, then you will be thrown out of office.

Talk but absolutely no action....

"Failed Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blew their first 200 days and accomplished nothing material.

Is replacement an option? Ryan and McConnell still think like the "aristocracy" of the No-Trumpers...elitist of the GOP...neither one can hold this fractured party together...and that is what it will take to get POTUS's agenda through! Pull together Republicans or get reay for Nancy Pelosi......

Conservatives who are retired military or retired law enforcement would be great candidates to recruit to face gutless RINO’s and GOP Elites in the primary.

We must help President Trump drain the swamp.

Congress could run a school on how to drag a small job out to fill all the time available and still not get the work done.

Sure - there might be a very few who are honorable and trying to do what is right.

But as a group they are almost worthless.

Every time the republican house leader is changed we end up with someone worse.

And we are always told how masterful McConnell is - but masterful at what?

Getting nothing done?

What a wonderful way to make a living. Show up to work, debate,waste time, collect a paycheck, and go home.

I believe that worthless rino Flake faces his primary at the end of August in AZ. If by some miracle he loses it would make the GOP start doing the right thing count on it.
If he wins expect this crap to go on throughout 18. If you know anyone in AZ reach out, Flake is just as bad as McTraitor just not as vocal. He inferred people should vote for HRC instead of TRUMP.

The Republicans in Congress are slow rolling President Trump’s agenda and nominees and are no hurry to get anything done but say the magic words “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” and watch them get as busy as beavers to “Get Things Done in Washington” !

No wall, no repeal, no tax cuts.. Does it really matter if they don’t lose? They were ready to make 50, then 70 Billion dollars in direct taxpayers dollars to insurance companies to bail them out!
There are a handful of Congressmen who ran on repeal, voted for it when obama would vetoe it, now... they have changed their minds.
