Seriously though. Read that article. The GOP senate really really don’t want Trump to have that summit with Putin and are still pretty angry about Helsinki. I’ll ask again…
All this time we’ve been thinking he’s Russia’s Manchuria candidate. Maybe he’s been the Democrats Manchurian Candidate- secretly destroying conservatism from within.
it’s just plain funny that Republicans have been railing against communists/communism (due to all the bad stuff they did/do) for ages and the first chance they get, with a politician that gives them what they really want, they close their eyes and pretend their BFF isn’t cozying up to the old communist/evil dude. and that he’s not using his office for personal gain (another previous line that couldn’t be crossed).
it’s like Jesus Christ really didn’t bring us Donald Trump.
Yeah for Mitch McConnell to take up a Democrat sponsored bill rebuking Trump is pretty extraordinary. I have a feeling they are starting to get aompisswd off they are willing to curtail Trump legislatively. They hate the tariffs, trade wars and Kremlin love- and frankly I think most of them hate Trump himself. We’ll see if they start to add teeth to their wimpy statements and tweets.
Oh, I have no doubt that probably 90% of Rs in Congress despise him. But they are also afraid of his base.
However, there comes a point when enough is enough. Maybe Ds sponsored the bill, but McConnell could chose to have it voted on or not. The fact it was unanimous speaks volumes.
Now they need to get busy doing something about the tariffs. They have threatened to, but need to make good on it. Many people could be losing jobs in Missouri alone.
The tariffs are insane and not even remotely conservative. True conservatives support free markets and trade.
