President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

He trusts them enough to take out multiple loans.

 

“So you’re saying Donald Trump is four times worse than Al Capone?”

“Uhhhh …”

 

Awww.....too bad

 

Mike Johnson looks like an SNL cast member dressed up as Mike Johnson.

 

I'm proud of all of you for ignoring the usual, obvious move on the previous page. Well done.

 

I can't wait till Johnson puts down an offensive compromise or two in an effort to actually get something done before time runs out and MAGA starts torturing him they way they did McCarthy.

 

Get that man a jacket.

 

Before time runs out? I’ve already mentally priced in a shutdown that doesn’t end until after Thanksgiving.

 

Not just a shutdown, although that grows more likely by the day. The crazy caucus deciding to knife Ukraine funding this time. Trump deciding something that's normal is offensive and railing against it and shoving a spoke into normally well oiled wheels. Who knows what bullshit they'll pull out of the bag?

The theoretically "normal conservative" R's have proven to be complete cowards. They don't have a pair of testicles among them, they won't buck the crazies.

 

The GOP has never been worse. Never! And yet it holds more sway than anyone could possibly predict.

Now, you can - many do - simply blame that sway on their many supporters just being awful, amoral, intractable people. But you’d think the Democrats would be able to pick a few of them off
