Obama worked throughout "his" shutdown to maximize the pain. Knowing the media will always blame the Republicans, he intentionally made the shutdown hurt normal Americans as much as he could.

The Democrats briefly considered fighting President Trump over his promise that tax returns would be distributed normally under the argument that all Americans should feel pain. I haven't heard much about this since Steny Hoyer was stomping his feet over it a couple of weeks ago. I guess they considered that perhaps the optics of withholding tax returns might not be so good.

I would have put up a lot of cold, hard cash to have been witness to those elitist scumbags receiving the news.

“Have any of the faux-proles commented on the staggering Imelda Marcos-sized pile of luggage Pelosi was taking with her”

That was probably luggage for her and her staff.

She is unfit for the speaker position. And needs to be removed from office. This is a complete disaster. What confidence does anyone, even lefties, have in this horrid government now. The gall to jet off on an expensive pr mission while her own employees are standing in line at food banks.

“given that she is in the mid to advanced stages of Alzheimer’s...”
You forget how consummately evil these people are. They can slow the ravages of disease as Fidel Castro did, with transfusions of children’s blood and other goolish practices.

Remember when Obama barricaded the WWII Memorial from 90 year old veterans making the last trip to see it? They tossed those barricades aside and went in anyway.
