“Well, it’s very disappointing,” Trump said of Boehner’s leadership in the House. “You know, I know him on a personable basis, I really like him a lot. But he’s been very disappointing in terms of his vigor and in terms of stopping Obamacare and many other things and certainly in terms of even this [stopping the Iran deal].”
But I would prefer more "vigorous" criticism.
Boehner standing there sadly by himself, tears rolling down his orange cheeks in a phone booth outside a derelict gas station on some windswept highway, taking an occasional pull from a bottle of bourbon. A tumbleweed rolls by...
WHY is he leaving? why now?
Conflict with conservatives? tension over PP? POTUS planning something the Crying Cheeto refused to facilitate, and either resign or get the closetful of skeletons opened? Just can’t handle things like the Pope speaking?
Would you want to pass the Obama agenda with Dem votes? Big votes coming up on budet, TPP, etc. Apparently, Boehner doesn’t want that to be his legacy either.
My guess is the looting scam the Pope just said was urgent and that is climate change. Boehner will be excoriated if he does not go along with massive redistribution of wealth.
Plus Killary’s buddy emails basically saying he is a alcoholic who cares about nothing. Confirming a book that said the same thing.
Then we have the shut down coming and you have to have some balls to do the right thing and take the heat.
Begin the sanitation of his office and paint the yellow walls. It’s a good day.
Just as important it shows the UniParty that they could be gone next year if Trump Effect continues to expose how deeply we despise the phonies killing our country. THAT is why I'm for Trump.
Well, that’s just sick.
Are they able to learn or just too stupid?
The Pope’s speech was the high point of his career? Enough said.
I’ve always thought the Democrats owned him through some compromising information. You could see how much he hated being their pet monkey, but neither did he contest that status one whit. Perhaps our side finally got hold of it, or something new.
Don't know what but definitely by going along with everything the White House put out, he's at the end of those puppet strings, ala Mitch.
Whether it was those pesky FBI files the Clinton's used to drag around DC or something else, who knows.
I think those behind him feared a real public fight over his job more than they needed him to stay in place, especially when they've got the grinning Kevin McCarthy (CA) standing beside him and others in "leadership."
Boehner was there for one thing and one thing only, to keep going along with whatever came out of DC and to force the rest of the House to follow.
It appeared that there was going to be much upheaval going to happen in this an election season and the establishment didn't need to be fighting battles on two fronts.
Getting Bush elected has been much harder than they thought and now fear a tough fight on the Hill with those unsavory TEA Party types - and a Cruz in the Senate threatening another filibuster over Planned Butchrehood!
Just one person's opinion - after decades of Congress-watching!
This is the best new I’ve read all week.
I find it infinitely satisfying that the HILL he chose to die on was his complicity in the murder and dismemberment of innocent babies. Pope, my Aunt Fanny! He and 0bama should’ve burst into FLAMES the minute the Pope laid eyes on them! Pelosi, too! Man, that was SICKENING to watch, yesterday!
*SPIT*
Boehner should leave - TODAY! What a miserable, drunken, pantywaist he is!
McConnell is NEXT in the cross hairs, though I’m not going to start worrying about who the GOPe will put in Boehners place just yet.
I’m going to CELEBRATE this small victory; they’re so few and far between with this den of thieves!
P.S. Sarah Palin for Majority Speaker, LOL!
I hope this is the beginning of the revolution in the Republican party. RINOs must go. I suspect mcconnel and mccain are next.
According to Laura Ingraham, the possible replacement are pathetic too.
“One lawmaker told Fox News he was “stunned,”
He must be living in a vacuum.
Hussein Obama loses his favorite RINO in the former republican party. The now RINOcrat party will have to come up with another butt kisser to take the cry baby’s place. The conservatives might get one of theirs in the job, but I ain’t holding my breath. There are still more RINOs than Patriots in the RINOcrat party.
I believe “The Trump Effect” is better considered as a situation wherein the people who want to make America great again have successfully taken overt action in that direction and have attained a notable achievement.
The Trump Effect is Americans getting off of the couch and getting engaged in the future of our nation when they have sat out elections to majority of their adult lives.
The Trump Effect is conservative patriots in Congress realizing that these people getting off of the cough and getting involved for the first time will have their backs if they too take affirmative steps to make America great again.
The Trump Effect=Making America Great Again one liberal and RINO scalp at a time.
Who is next?
“Gee could it be blackmail, young boys, pictures, what could possibly keep him from being deal leader’s continued water boy?”
They say I gotta go to rehab. No, no, no! :-)
Johnny can go cry in his drink.
I agree with your every word, beautiful Diana in Wisconsin!
I’ll believe it when I see it. There’s still they who are the power behind him that will remain in the shadows by this move.
It isn’t over until every damned one of them is voted out of power, and they whom seek the representative positions are screened more thoroughly, as well term limits.
