President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Not the sentiment he thinks it is

 

Child is clearly woke.

 

Yeah fine. Assemble your commission.

Hannity: I can't imagine you saying "bring me some of the boxes we brought back from the White House, I'd like to look at them." Did you ever do that?

Trump: I would have the right to do that. There's nothing wrong with it.

Hannity: I don't think you would do it.

Trump: I have the right to do that. I would do that.

Hannity: Alright, let me move on.....

 

I sense some of them are politically naive enough to think they were going to get everything McCarthy promised in the first place.

 

"Arm yourselves."

 

The Dems are just as likely as not to whip votes to keep McCarthy if a motion to vacate is made. They don't want Gym Jordan as speaker. Better the devil you know.

 

Didn't show up first for me. Her real account did.

 

Somehow, some way, figure out how to get rid of this hostage-taking with the debt ceiling before it comes up again in two years. Just a complete farce every time.

 

Just mint the fucking coin.

Do it after the "deal" is nailed into place.

Tell them, "fuck you and fuck your 'deal.' The hostage situation is over. You wanna cut Social Security and Medicare, you get right up in public and say so. And we'll hang it around your fucking necks."

 

Jeffries said the Republicans needed 150 yes votes. They got 149.

 

The belief in Washington, right or wrong, is that the consequences of default will be blamed on the President, not Congress. Joe Biden, Washington as they make 'em, shares this. But he also knew that McCarthy wasn't quite sure that was true. So the deal was not that different from what would've happened in the regular budget process. Now until 2025, the only way the House can use force for its demands is a government shutdown. Unlike defaults, we've seen a lot of those since the Gingrich Revolution and there's evidence. Congress, and particularly the Republicans who've forced every one, have always taken most of the blame. so they're really now holding a gun pointed at themselves.
