The poster you are responding to is a "party before country" Republican. She as much as admitted this when Trump, a man she previously claimed to abhor, became the nominee and she stated that because he was the Republican on the ticket, she "had no choice but to vote for him." I can excuse the cultists for their continued support, but Republicans like this are, in my mind, much worse, because you know that on some level they know better. But party must always, always come first.
I remember about 18 months or so ago, I made the comment that I thought that Trump actually stood a decent chance of getting the Republican nomination. The poster you are referring to admonished me in a rather schoolmarmish way that she knew politics and the Republican party she knew would not nominate someone like Trump and I was way off base. But like you said, once he actually got the nomination, that changed on a dime.
Very true but he's like a kid with a new toy, he thinks this is a family run business. If they pass the bill in it's present form the democrats would be the ones having a kegger. Trump isn't up for reelection until 2020, does he even realize they will be up for election again in 2018.
McConnell wants no part of this turd that the house sent him, they just left all the dirty work for the senate but I don't see anything getting passed.
I hope not. Their AHCA is a disaster and any tax cut plan the Freedom Caucus is likely to get behind would have sane Republicans hiding in the shrubbery.
What else they got going? Rolling back banking regulations. How's that coming along?

No legislative body nor any other branch of government, should have the option of granting itself more power. No political party that is in a majority in a legislature, should be able to increase its power by its own vote, effective immediately. Such things violate the balance of powers that is at the foundation of our constitutional principles.
Nope.
The Constitution itself directly allows each house to determine the rules of its proceedings:

If they don't wanna pay for birth control for women, they shouldn't be paying for ED meds for men.
The (D)'s changed the rules when it suited them also.
They changed the rules on federal judges and other appointments and at least they had a reason based on the history and republicans filibustering, they thought the DC court of appeals could operate 3 judges short for 8 years.
The GOP already went to the next level with the supreme court, if you want the party in charge to run over everyone be my guest but just remember as Mitch McConnell stated, they will not be the majority forever.
There better be a very good reason for going with the simple majority, this is just a bit premature. Besides it is even doubtful that they will ever have a replacement within their own party.
The thing is, the senate can already pass both with the current senate "Byrd" reconciliation rule.
Exactly.
Trump didn't know that.
