Gee how could that be? Oh yes - Moscow Mitch is blocking every piece of legislation that the House passes on to the Senate if his Lord & Master in the White House doesn't like it. Neatly turning the Senate from a legislative chamber and into a extension of the executive branch.

In other words, not doing his job as a lawmaker nor his duty under the Constitution.

They are like Captain Ahab going after the great white whale, Moby Dic. They are diagnosably obsessed. And just as it was with Ahab and the whale, Trump will take them down.

If you combine all the executive power collected by Clinton, Obama, and Trump, you nearly have complete federal control. Add in the courts which usually give deference to the executive branch, and a weak congress regardless of leadership in either party, and we nearly have a North Korea problem on our hands.


I guarantee Trump could unilaterally start a war and still remain in office. And the Democrat that follows him could do the same with the same result, nothing. Americans better start looking at principles and not Party or risk losing a country.
Rep this...Dem that...agreed that Americans have been distracted by mere party names over key policies. There's no going back now though. What's done is done and after this next election it's every man/womans game. Might as well take away the U.S. presidential eligibility legislation. Times have definitely changed..

Most posting think I am trying to cover for the President.
Well, I am not.
I couldn't care what party is ni the white house, the fact is, the dem controlled house is involved to much in worthless investigations, and not doing the job we voters elected them to do.
They have a country to run, and are doing a damned poor job of it.

Why hasn't a health care bill been put forth by the house?
Why has the daca issue been forgotten?
Why hasn't the southern border been secured?
Where is the money for rebuilding this country's infrastructure?
Why hasn't voter reform been mentioned in the house?
These are just a few of the important issues being ignored, while these worthless, time and money consuming witch hunts are taking place.

This infighting between parties is getting this country nowhere, and the congress needs to stop this BS once and for all, and get back to legislating, which is what we are paying them to do.


Bob.

Hmmmm. So Hillary (A seriously flawed candidate) wins the popular vote and trump wins the electoral college, and that’s a big win??? Riiiiiight.

Oh Yeah, Illegal voting blah blah blah. Just keep doing what you’re doing.

They are so wrapped up in investigations, that it leaves no time for them to be adopting, and voting on important issues facing the country.
When, and what was the last important piece of legislation voted on by both branches of congress?
I can't even think of the last time, let alone what it was.
The Dem house has been passing plenty of legislation and sending it to the senate, where your boy Moscow Mitch sits on it and won't even allow a vote.
Quote:
The dems are absolutely going to lose unless they stop all this stupid investigations business, and buckle down and start working for the people who voted them into office.
Nothing is happening on health care, immigration, the DACA fiasco, the budget, just to name a few.
The house is so wrapped up in impeachment, abuse of authority, obstruction of justice etc, nothing is being done, that really matters to the citizens of this country.


Bob.
"Investigations" you say...

Allow me to mention...

...Benghazi.

Carry on.

Benghazi, one investigation.
Just look at the news in any form, and see how many dem investigations are currently in play, not to mention the Mueller one which spent millions of dollars, and over two years, with not one certifiable indictment of the president resulting from that investigation.
These looser liberals won't stop util the president is dead.
Once aging I will ask, why isn't the dem controlled house taking up immigration, daca, health care, infrastructure,?
These are the main issues the congress needs to address and solve.
These proposals start in the house, and move on, but nothing worthwhile is being done in the house.
The real issues that matter, are being ignored in the house, because of all these stupid investigations, with no seemingly end to them.

Bob.
Millions were spent on Benghazi and no indictments, as opposed to multiple indictments, convictions and pleas that came out of the Mueller investigation. You can choose to be blind to facts but the rest of us are not obligated to close our eyes.

Pubs sure got a lot of mileage out of that one.

Conveniently ignoring the DOJ "will not indict a sitting prez" policy, strictly enforced by the most corrupt, hyperpartisan AG in history.

I already schooled you in the previous post. And other posters have pointed it out to you, also.

I get it! You're immune to information.

Address your concerns to Moscow Mitch.

He wants to hear from you.
