Oh yes. We can primary them but they dont give a s^%t. Not one iota.

By then, these c-suckers will have pilfered all the money they can and will leave extremely wealthy.

Then, the next crop elected will be spoiled by the rotten SOBs remaining within that sloppy cess pool.

There is but one way to solve the problem and you all and I know what that is.

I believe the writer needs to go back to English classes, the Rats will not get the GOP votes to override a veto.

Figures..and I bet these are the same people who in 2017 would have blocked President Trump’s bill for a wall..so in a way Paul Ryan, yeah he’s a jackass but he was right when he told Trump they would vote against him the GOP wants open borders for cheap labor, the Dems want them here for votes, its really that simple

I was concerned after my glance at the article, but sustain is the opposite of override.

It is amazing to see just how united the uniparty is against the wall. Screw the will of the American people who desire border security the cheap labor and votes must flow.

Alexander, Graham, McSally, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Hyde-Smith, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Thune, Daines, Barasso and Enzi are all Bush League Republicans.

Knock it off. We need all the help we can get and Graham is helping. You can’t predict the future for s#it.

Save your snark and anger for those who truly deserve it.

That’s what I thought.
It threw me off.
I’m just trying to keep up with the rest of the class.
So much is going on now, seen and never to be seen.

The reason some of these republicans give for not supporting the resolution is that it may set a precedent for a Democrat president to declare emergencies in other situations. GIVE ME A BREAK! Th Democrats will if in office engage in any kind of Emergency resolution that fits there scenarios regardless of what Trump does now. The same stupid scenario applies to the 60 Vote Rule in the Senate. Mc Connell says he wants to keep it for fear the Dems. if in the Majority will use it to pass their favorite legislation. That is a bunch of BS as Mitch knows if the Dems. gain the Majority, they will do it anyway. He uses this excuse to block legislation he and his donors (AKA US Chamber of Commerce)don’t wan, but also don’t want to show the reality of being Anti Trump.

Keep voting for Amnesty Senators and you will get amnesty.

Graham has supported EVERY amnesty attempt since he got into the Senate.

I’m curious. Is a “resolution” an actual binding law? I always thought it was merely an expression of opinion, e.g. a “sense of the Senate” statement. If so, why is no one pointing out this distinction?

With respect, for one you listed Graham and he just said in the article he would not vote for the resolution, the Rats would have to get 14 GOP votes to override and that ain’t gonna happen.
