Reid didn’t nuclear on SCOTUS tho.

Is there a smidgen of doubt in your mind that the Dems will do that ten minutes after they regain a majority?

Just kill the filibuster now and quit pretending that the comity of the 19th. Century is ever going to return.

The only downside is that we're going to have to listen to four years of Chuck Schumer whining and crying. But I can live with that!

His whining means America is winning!

Democrats are going to regret the the Harry Reid nuclear option

There is no way they are going to be able to kill Trumps momentum out of the box by stalling the nomination process and sabotaging his Presidency .

Trump is going to steam roller them.

Wait, have they got the go-ahead on this from Bitch McConnell and the rest of the Surrender Monkey Caucus?

You may trust your source, but I don’t trust Thune, McCain, Flake, Graham, Murkowsky, Alexander, Corker, Hatch, Flake, Heller, Rubio (those are just the ones who voted for Gang of Eight) and a dozen of other RINOs not to jump ship and vote against Trump’s nominees.

I think Thune mighta gone rogue and put McConnell in the trick bag.


Trump won his state by 30 points. Thune knows who butters his bread now. LOL.

Who is a “controversial” pick by Trump?


EPA guy, Bolton at State (if he gets it), etc. Dems will manufacture a bogeyman if there isn’t one

The Nuke deal will come back to haunt the liberals. They never can see past their nose. Just maybe the Republicans in the house & Senate will grow a pair now that we have someone that will fight back.

I heard him say this. Still the uninformed press, keeps announcing that GOP will need to find 8 Dems to cross over and confirm choices.

I say make it for SCOTUS also.

I Tweeted Trump to rename the Nuclear Option the Harry Reid Option, his retirement gift. His power grab will be the gift the keeps on giving Trump his cabinet and his program.
