Excerpt:


Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is threatening to kill popular legislation and policies if voters elect a Democratic president in the 2020 election.

"If I'm still the majority leader in the Senate [in 2020], think of me as the Grim Reaper," McConnell told voters (https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/440041-mcconnell-pledges-to-be-grim-reaper-for-progressive-policies?__twitter_impression=true) in Owensboro, Kentucky, on Monday. "None of that stuff is going to pass."

That stuff McConnell is so eager to kill? Popular progressive ideas like the Green New Deal (https://shareblue.com/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-unveils-a-new-plan-to-save-the-planet/)and Medicare for All, which would help to clean up the environment and provide even more access to affordable health care. Even if voters reject Trump and the Republican agenda in 2020, McConnell is determined to do what he wants rather than what the voters want.

"I guarantee you that if I'm the last man standing and I'm still the majority leader, it ain't happening," he said. "I can promise you."

I have great confidence that President Trump will remain our President for two complete terms.

And Mc Connell likely can block everything, making the US constitution meaningless. Any question put to the Scotus will be decided in McConnell's favour.

This is how a fascist takeover of government workd you Muricans. It's the carbon copy of 1930's Germany.

It might be that Trump can't be beaten because he has the power to defy the ballot boxes now too.

Kook alert.

[montgomery]

Kook alert.

Run away veritas. No serious discussion can take place with any of Trump's scum of the earth.

You can't tell me how your silly outdated constitution can stop Trump. You're done.

Good lord I hope not, LoL.

Gridlock is best for all.

Absolutely. Often when a new piece of legislation is passed, we lose more of our individual liberties.

Thanks Mitch, if you dont the left will destroy the country in 2 yrs

Wise men and women will plan for two great Trump Presidential terms.

History will record President Trump among the very best.

Well I have two good eyes, and so far history has already recorded him as one of the worst in history. Well I guess it is true what they say the eye sight is the first thing to go. Trump along with all of our past presidents are constitutional destroyers. Trump is a corporate socialist, a bomb dropping maniac, a creator of division, a corruptor of world peace, a proliferator of war, both hot and cold. He is an earth destroying, sexist, mentally ill person with his hand on the nuclear button. What could go wrong?

[Common Sense]

So back to what they did under Obama?

Silly?
Outdated?
when you say those things about the COTUS (and it’s application) you really reveal yourself there and lose a lot of people.

Any garden variety leftist could have written your screed. And any garden-variety leftist did.

You post was utterly devoid of facts. Tighten up.

Sounds familiar.

It really is a never ending game. Meanwhile the citizens are on standby. Infastructure crumbling all around them. But go on and play your games congress.

Agreed; every time both parties play these silly little games, it's the American people who end up on the short end of the stick. In some ways it's our fault for putting them in office in the first place. A third party is starting to sound more and more enticing as time goes on.

[Boris The Animal]

So back to what they did under Obama?One could only hope.

I totally agree with you on everything you said. We really do need a third party. Also, it is our lack of vigilance that has gotten us in this mess. Nothing we can do about the past, but hopefully we will do our part in the present and future.

You keep believing the Left wing lying news outlets, the worst was Clinton and OBama

LoL, please do show me where I said something good about Hillary and Obama. You can tell me I believe the way you just said I do. But the history of my posts say otherwise. I have never liked Hillary. That can be backed up by my last 3 years of posting here in this forum. Also I am not an Obama fan that can also be backed up. I have never changed my stance on that. I kinda had some hope in him at first, although I did not vote for the man. But I was pretty upset that he was a puppet and he was a mass murderer. I was livid at what he did to the middle east.

But if I disliked Obama on his war tactics imagine how much more so I loath Trump. He dropped more bombs in his first 9 months in office than Obama the drone strike kings entire 8 year term. How am I supposed to like that?

I don't just believe the news outlets. You are misrepresenting my stance, here is a past thread I posted and you even gave it a like back then. http://thepoliticalforums.com/threads/106669-Rant-about-the-media-selling-us-out

I am not a leftist.

Infrastructure is a local issue.

Replace Mitch's name with a liberal majority leader that would have said the same thing....the hard right in this thread would be shitting the bed and calling for an armed revolution shouting "the Constitution, the Constitution, the Constitution!"
