"Get stuff done." Is that all he needs to do?
Did Hank say that is all he needs to do?

Get stuff done? With no regards as to WHAT is being done?
Did Hank say that?

So how about mandatory government paid maternity leave?
He didn't mention it.

Federally funded child care benefit plan?
He didn't mention it.

Minimum wage of $15?
He didn't mention it.

Single payer government run health care system?
He didn't mention it.

Increased food stamp benefits?
He didn't mention it.

Yes the GOP is getting what they deserve.

All those things above except for Single Payer Health Care I support (not real sure about $15 Minimum wage - State's rights Issue anyway) - Don't forget I am a former JFK Democrat and still have a fondness for entitlements.

My wife (32 degree EIB Fan) and I have had not a few heated discussions about these items and she has been know to call me ("A SOCIALIST"!). :)

Update: Nancy now saying that some of the things she said were misinterpreted as them having a deal. Rush just played the tape.

Rush also just played Trump recently saying he won't do anything without funding for the wall.

Sure sounds like the MSM fooled a lot of people this morning and last night.

Buckle up, this is going to be interesting (and fun).

Yes, you voted for Trump, but lately it's fair to say you've become a Trump-detractor. Any negative MSM story, you're all over it.

And you've joined the rest in predicting he'll abandon his issues and voters. Look at your prediction:



Sorry, that's not a Trump-supporter. You're hating him, not for what he's done, but what you predict he'll do. I no longer see the difference between you, ITL and BW. Please change my mind.

You're not a Trump supporter. You're a Trump [Name calling edited].

That, I will never be.

Yes, there is a difference between a supporter or a sycophant, and this is the way to divide the two groups up. You've got tax cuts that really should have been passed this summer to get the best effect, and Obamacare is dying on the vine, yet what Trump cares about is almost a million Mexican national adults?

Repeat - The GOP has betrayed him and that also by one individual whom I admired and respected that killed the
"Kill ObamaCare Bill" with his one vote.

Very disappointing - OK maybe the bill was not the Ocare coup de gras but it would have easily sent it to the ER (pun intended).

Strange is it not - now when President Trump stands with the Progressives on an issue he is STILL RIDICULED.
This says to me the hysteria has its source from another place than the issue itself.

Illegals deported? Zero.
Wall built? No.
Debt increased? Yes.
Number of deals made with Democrats? Two.

Winning!

Trump said this morning the deal does fund the wall. Chuck and Nancy might be telling a whopper.

Oops...

<singing>, "I see your true colors shining through...your true colors..."

Trump was asked by a reporter, "Are Ryan and McConnell on board with DACA?"
Trump: "Ryan and McConnell agree with us on DACA."

What? Wait...agree with us?

No, he's not. He's saying things like "massive border security" or "big border security" he's not saying "Wall". When he did mention the Wall in a tweet he talked about renovating existing fencing, not new construction.

Wait and see.

If you are correct, I and I suspect hundreds of thousands of others will not be going to the polls in 2020.

Two things could happen...

1) The republican senate could do what the american people put them in office to do. (doesn't look promising)

2) Trump has to do a deal with the devil which will end his support from those who voted for him. He will be a failed President. (Being one who could not do what he said he could do).

Obama was a successful President. He said he would fundamentally change this country, and he did just that, because he had a party that understood the majority in a party should get their way. A true party will hash things out, voice their objections, and then unite as ONE! Majority consensus getting the vote of all. Republican heads have been a joke.....

My response to Reynolds concerning the Wall was that Trump didn't talk about the Wall as a bargaining chip in the deal discussed with the Democrats. He talked about massive border security, carefully avoiding the word Wall as it related to the deal. He did say he was still going to build a Wall, but he was talking in terms of upgrading existing structures.

Now he very well might get some sort of a wall built. But it probably won't be The Wall that he talked about on the campaign trail. And he certainly won't get Mexico to pay for it.

He's let his signature issue atrophy. Nine months after taking office and they haven't even selected the winning contractors, much less allocated funding (two weeks ago they selected four companies to build prototype sections.). That's taking too long. Trump has provided no leadership on pushing it through Congress. No leadership on any legislative issues.

Two things could happen...

1) The republican senate could do what the american people put them in office to do. (doesn't look promising)

2) Trump has to do a deal with the devil which will end his support from those who voted for him. He will be a failed President. (Being one who could not do what he said he could do).

When you say he has to cut a deal with the devil, what sort of a deal? Involving what legislation?

Still no deal on DACA. Pelosi, Schumer and Fakes news have now fully recanted the story. Wall is still on the table.

Of course you have a link to a story showing where Pelosi and Schumer recanted their assertion of a deal with Trump on DACA.

It's all over the news. Rush played a tape of her saying her comments were misunderstood. Trump has said many times no deal yet. Just do some simple research.

So we can blame Trump or blame the GOP congress that's betrayed Trump and his voters. Some choose the former and are doing the bidding of the GOP congress. I refuse to be a puppet for them.

Looks like any issue. Tax reform, health care, daca with no wall. The devil would love to see America taken down with open borders, America's demise will come from it's own leadership and has been since the 70's when the democratic party took side with the whispers of the devil and began their attacks on the most vulnerable and on the morals of God. Notice it will not be reversed and is only getting worse.
