Merry Christmas from Donald Trump

[Unregistered]

seem so confident???
she is now scrambling to pass any bills she has been stalling just so her people have something to run on,after this debacle
there isnt going to be a good time to send up this piece of garbage-she got no bipartisan support and now she wants fairness from a place she has zero power in.
the closer it gets to the election the worse the timing- hell she just invited the POTUS into her house to deliver the SOTU-he will look presidential and she will look like a stooge just sitting on her hands
the optics for Trump are great- will the dems not applaud the economy-too funny
she knew this would go South but she caved to the crazies and knows whats coming

You GOP trolls need to try harder. McConnell has been sitting on hundreds of bills this year, bills the House has passed, many of them with universal bilateral support. He won't even bring them to the floor for a discussion let alone a vote.

"Trump may want to look to the Republican-controlled Senate instead. Democrats in the House have been passing bills at a rapid clip; as of November 15, the House has passed nearly 400 bills, not including resolutions. But the House Democratic Policy and Communications Committee estimates 80 percent of those bill have hit a snag in the Senate, where Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is prioritizing confirming judges over passing bills. Congress has passed just 70 bills into law this year. Granted, it still has one more year in its term, but the number pales in comparison to recent past sessions of Congress, which typically see 300-500 bills passed in two years"

Your opening sentence says it all. Since 1989. Was trump in office since then? Heave Democrats not presided over that, either in the big chair with Clinton and Obama or in the congress from the speakers seat. Heck, the dems had the presidency, the senate and the house when Obama came into the wh. Why didn’t he fix it? Gave out a lot of free phones in the hood, but that isn’t going to do it.

Obama only had control for two years. He was lucky he got ACA through in time. McConnell made it his mission to make sure Obama wouldn't succeed from the moment Obama got elected. Multiple bipartisan bills have been presented on raising the minimum wage and fair pay, and the GOP sits on them. In fact that House passed another a few months ago and McConnell sits on it as we speak.

I believe it's fairly well proven that Donald Trump is an adulterer as well. What's your point?

Has Bezos been accused of rape by three women including an ex-wife? Been accused of sexual assault by almost two dozen and sexual harassment by another two dozen ?

Is Bezos known to have paid off a mistress to keep an affair from the public

Etc

Etc

Look forward to you cons tossing all kinds of dirt as you have for decades but without you truly recognizing the boomerang that is ....

But all you good people have your reasons to like a whoremonger like Trump. Ok. But don’t get upset if we talk about them

When people start bragging about smart they are, you know they're full of crap. Just like Trump. Despite his claims of genius he was ,at best, a very average student.

Worse than average ....

“He was the dumbest god*am student I ever had.”

What say you then to all the petty name calling and school yard semantic employed by Trump against those he believes oppose him or criticize him?

As for Robert DeNiro and movies that have earned him acclaim and are not mob movies....

Bang The Drum Slowly
Taxi Driver
1900
The Deer Hunter
Raging Bull
The King of Comedy
Brazil
The Mission
Angel Heart
Stanley & Iris
Awakenings
Backdraft
Cape Fear
This Boy's Life
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
The Fan
Sleepers
Cop Land
Ronin
Wag The Dog
Men of Honor
Meet The Parents
The Bridge of San Luis Rey
The Good Shepard


I could go on, but my point is made. You may not like his politics, but there's little doubt he's one of the greatest American actors of this past 40 years or so.

Lol. DeNiro has a worldwide audience and the “millionaire” con spends his days posting like a loon to TS.

I think jealousy , as usual, explains how the con just needs to trash everyone and everything non-con.

He doesnt feel the need to get bills out- he isnt under any pressure
BTW do you actually understand how legislation gets passed?
house creates a bill, goes to the senate for their deliberations then goes back to the house for more changes and then when both houses agree to the changes it can come up for a vote by both houses
house passing bills doesnt mean anything
this should help you
school house rock-Im just a bill-

This isn't about how legislation gets passed. There are a number of folk here who seem to take issue with the House not passing any bills, when in fact, they've passed something like 400 this year onto the Senate. The question is why the Senate hasn't acted on them and that lays directly on McConnell's shoulders. You don't find it hypocritical that people complain about the House and what it has done and ignore the Senate's inaction on those bills that have been passed onto it? If you can't see that hypocrisy then you are being driven solely by politics in your thinking.

We all forget that Obama had a few other big legislative successes during his first two years :

But Obamacare isn't the only big piece of legislation Obama signed during his first two years in office. Just nine days after being inaugurated, he signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act into law, which made it significantly easier for workers to sue their employers for wage discrimination. Less than a month later, Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, more casually known as the stimulus package, injected $831 billion into the American economy in a (successful) attempt to prevent a depression after the financial collapse months earlier.

Similarly, in 2010, Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. This was a financial reform bill intended to reign in the Wall Street excesses that many blamed for the 2008 financial crisis. As with the Affordable Care Act, it was criticized by conservatives for being too liberal and, likewise, by liberals for being too conservative. Nevertheless, Dodd-Frank resulted in the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the first government agency dedicated to protecting consumers from predatory financial practices.

During the lame duck session after the 2010 midterms, Obama managed to sign a few more pieces of major legislation into law: The repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, which had banned LGBTQ Americans from serving openly in the military, and the extension of George W. Bush's tax cuts for the richest Americans.

So how does Trump stack up with ^^^^? If any cons out there want to take a swing before I answer, do so.

“In terms of signing legislation, however, Trump is not a force to be reckoned with — and any honest account of his first two years would conclude that, in terms of legislation, he's had a far smaller influence so far than Obama did at the same point in his presidency.

The biggest piece of legislation signed by Trump during his first two years is the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. A highly regressive tax cut, the law cut the corporate tax rate by 15 percent, slashed the income tax rate for top earners by 2.6 percent primarily, and implemented several other changes that, in totality, primarily benefited the wealthiest Americans.

That's the only bill Trump has signed that, in terms of scope and consequence, could reasonably be compared to the Affordable Care Act or Dodd-Frank. However, he has signed a few smaller laws that are worth noting.

In August 2017, Congress passed a bill that both imposed new sanctions on Russia and restricted Trump's ability to ease existing sanctions. When it landed on his desk, the White House called it "clearly unconstitutional" and said that it "purport[s] to displace the President's exclusive constitutional authority to recognize foreign governments, including their territorial bounds." However, Trump signed it into law anyway.

Trump also signed bills to provide relief money after various natural disasters and make it easier for the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs to fire employees at that agency. And that's about it. [/quote]

Impeachment will be what he’s remembered for and over the years ALL his horrible policies will be associated with that failure, regardless of the actual articles.

An investment that will earn FAR more interest over the next 20 yrs than the cons got with their Clinton impeachment farce.

the point you miss is that legislation doesnt go to a vote just because the house passed it
most of the time it doesnt go anywhere because the senate makes changes that the house wont consider
most legislation gets bastardized into other legislation
so saying the house passed 400 bills means nothing- where do they stand in the pipeline is what matters
how about the house pass a budget

thats 5th grade civics

Come on Snowflake. Name one meaningful bill out of those 400 that are worthy of being looked at by the Senate.
