I think AOC has them scared and petrified.

There will be a rebellion against Republican Senators who vote against this.

Both parties do not realize just how fed up w/ illegal immigration the voting public is.


Not exactly. They don’t care. They want conservatives to leave the party and steer the rebrand the GOP as a progressive Democrat lite party. All this was laid out in the GOP “autopsy” report after the kenyan wiped the floor with Mitt Romneycare.

I notice after reading the article that he doesn’t provide any reason, rationale or substance to his opposition.


The reason is Lamar! hates Trump and those that elected him. In fact, he prefers Hillary Clinton and her SCOTUS to us. So he is doing his best to undermine POTUS and hopes he loses in 2020.

The GOP is a dead letter. If they ‘rebel’ or not is inconsequential.

Trump got INTO the WH without them.... he can STAY there without them!!

Sorry, Lamar is retiring and does. not. care. As Rush has pointed out numerous times: the GOP is flipping the bird at Trump and those that elected him.

Alexander has said he is not running again for the Senate. He is doing what many other lame ducks have for many decades. He is purely for sale to the highest bidder and want to get secret pledges and hidden ‘donatives’ locked in while he has something to sell. Watch for more of this from other GOPERs as 2020 gets closer.

The stupid Senator from Tennessee should reconsider his assholiness or risk GOP VOTER rebellion, not only against him, but anyone who agrees with him, or even likes him.

He got the crap scared out of him the last time he ran, he nearly got primaried out. He knows he doesn’t have a snowballs chance in hell and is doing a Flake/Corkhold finger in the eye of conservatives.

Beware Tennessee your state Republican party is left of center and will trot out Haslam as a replacement for this leftist wussbag. Haslam is a country club, big government, anti-gun Republican.

It would be difficult for me to think any less of politicians, but people like Lamar are pushing that envelope.

I don’t think there’s a bottom.

One will always sink lower than we though humanly possible.

Bring on the MAGA party!


Oh, yeah. We’d combine the MAGA
party with the Tea Party. Come and
get us, folks, we’re the MAGAtea party.
Hmmm. That might not sound so good.

If President Trump has a major bust up with the GOPe the country club wing of the GOP will happily sit out 2020 and throw the White House to the Democrats. POTUS is juggling plates now and trying not to drop any before next November.
