Sen. Thune: Nuclear Option Will Stand, No Denying Trump Picks

No confirmed source yet ^ | 12/6/2016

From Facebook, from someone I trust:

"Senator John Thune just confirmed on Fox News that Republicans will stick with the nuclear option, instituted by Reid and the Democrats to get their more controversial appointments through.

In other words, there will be very little chance any of Trump's cabinet appointments can be stopped."

Sorry I have no confirmed source yet, but this is YUGE if true. And I trust the poster.

[mountn man]

That’ll have liberals screaming.

[Fester Chugabrew]

May the United States of America and her people continue to vomit forth all that is Obama and his America-hating followers.

[Lazamataz]

Let them. Eff ‘em.

[DIRTYSECRET]

SCOTUS? Can it apply there?

[Lazamataz]

Maybe. Reid didn’t nuclear on SCOTUS tho.

Laz how many days left?

I hope so. I’m so sick of Republicans being “gentlemanly” and letting Democrats get away with B.S. in the name of bi-partisan cooperation. Screw that. No more Mr. Nice Guy, PLEASE.

[Lopeover]

If true, I salute them for having the courage!

43 DAYS!!!!!!

Well Harry Reid decided to do this. He and his Democrats changed the rules to grease the skids for Obama nominees. So they can’t say anything, now that the rules are changed, if a new Republican administration and Senate take advantage of this rule change.

I won’t believe it until it happens.

The Turtle hasn’t spoken.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

No

[Lazamataz]

The reason I was such a hardcore Trump backer is that I knew he’d fight with a knife in his loincloth, just like he’s doing.

So they can’t say anything, now that the rules are changed, if a new Republican administration and Senate take advantage of this rule change.

You don't know the Democrats if you really believe that.

[GOPJ]

Hoisted by their own partard...

[Mr. Douglas]

They need to use it just to make the point. :)

Thune just laid down the Turtle Trap.

If McTurtle wants ANY influence, he’s gonna have to go along.

I’m already sick of winning. LOL!
