    But the president caved. Who will believe his threat to take action now?

    I am/was a Trump supporter. Now what?
    Let me help to cheer you up. He is still winning on deregulating. He is still winning on Immigration as a whole, the wall is not the only part of immigration reform. He is still winning on oil drilling and polluting. He is still winning on so many things. He is winning on lowering taxes for the wealthy. So to be clear these things to me are not winning, they are a loss. But I am sure that if you just reflect on all of the things that make most of us want to cry, it will cheer you up, and give you hope.

    He will do something in the days to come that will bring back your faith. Just give it some time. He cant win on every single issue. And if he don't do his job of course you still may choose to kick off your revolution. I hope this pep talk cheered you up some. :)
    We are all brothers and sisters in humanity. We are all made from the same dust of stars. We cannot be separated because all life is interconnected.

    I completely expected this.


    It did did look like some of the pragmatic Democrats were getting nervous and starting to break ranks with Pelosi, but they knew that all they had to do was hold on a little while and let the Republicans bend over and capitulate.


    And that is what the Repubs did.....Trump can't trust them now. Especially McConnell. Shame McConnell wont be up for re-election until 2022.

    Trump is now effectively a lame duck

    We'll have an election in 2020 and hopefully not elect another incompetent boob and move on.

    Turn that frown upside down.

    President Trump became a lame duck president today. My future is reasonably secure. I am well off. I am retired.

    Someone in your generation will start this rebellion or civil war.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Replacing leftists with constitutional conservatives on the federal courts is his greatest achievement so far.

    Have you noticed that liberals are trying to cheer you up today whereas if the opposite had occurred deplorables would be cheering in unison.

    Well, so far every Democrat to announce their candidacy looks to be at least an equally incompetent boob. There might be some reasonable person waiting to move in when those boobs all embarrass themselves, but I Wouldn't count on it.
