HappyHippo posted:Hadn't considered this. Considering how part of the reason that Trumpcare fell on its face is due to the needlessly rushed process, this doesn't bode well for their tax reform either. Tax reform is just as hosed as everything else. To pass something with 50 votes they have to pass it with reconciliation and make it revenue neutral. They might have been able to do it while they were gutting the ACA, but they missed their chance. Now they're stuck trying to pay for the tax cuts by taking an axe to programs that are even more popular. If they try to pass the tax cuts alone, the Dems will filibuster.

HappyHippo posted:Yeah, although I think this one is more so on Ryan, who really is more responsible for this whole process, from the behind-closed-doors drafting of the bill, to the half-assed unveiling, to ramming through the committees, and the rushed vote in an attempt to push it through before anyone could really have a look at it. It was a terrible strategy. One wonders how he's going to approach tax reform now given this. You'd think he'd want to take it slower, bit he'll want to get a quick "win" too. I'd be willing to bet Trump was pounding on him the whole time to get this poo poo done. He was really in a no win situation.

I mean, technically anyone can be Speaker, they don't need to be a member of the House but it's never happened and I don't see any Congress ever voting for Stephen loving Bannon as the speaker.

DivisionPost posted:Hey, I'm doing some research and I'm looking for Freep posts/comments from spring/summer 2006. Is there a way to go right to that, or should I just accept that the lovely layout will make it impossible and save myself the headache? One thing to do is find a major headline from that era from a news source freep will trust, then enter that headline into google along with the text "site:freerepublic.com" If you find an appropriate link, take a look at the URL bar. For example, the currently top link on the second page is: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3538165/posts See the 3538165 there? That's the thread number. Freep's forum index pagination operates off of thread numbers, so you can just take that number and plug it into the index URL. This URL will lead to a page of threads with that thread at the top: http://freerepublic.com/tag/*/index?more=3538165 Failing that method, just subtract from the thread id. They're a sequential integer. Swap 3538165 with 1538165 and you'll find December of 2005, for example. There's a fun 1000 post long thread there about an oil storage terminal explosion in England, if you want to see a demonstration that they've pretty much always had a raging boner for potential terrorism. The actual cause seems to be a tank overflowing and finding an open flame.

Sooooooo, https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/845974102619906048 Donald John loving Trump posted:Democrats are smiling in D.C. that the Freedom Caucus, with the help of Club For Growth and Heritage, have saved Planned Parenthood & Ocare! Both Heritage and the Club are recipients of Koch funding, and we know that the Kochs don't like Trump, so attacking them makes some degree of sense at first... but at the same time, those groups have also funded Tea Party operations that lead to the HFC existing. We know that freep wants to like the HFC, but there are some serious doubts about them now. If freep did not fully back Trump, him attacking the HFC and their funding would raise some serious alarms. The big question is how freep will react. Will they instantaneously adapt to the new party line, or will they retain some measure of independent thought? Let's find out.

Many are also criticizing the HFC, though. There's a small minority of people that defend Trump here. But what's astounded me most here is how often freepers are bringing up the necessity of negotiations and compromise while playing politics. How quickly they seem to have forgotten their position for the past eight years of doing nothing but opposing and refusing to budge on any ideological issue. I think this has broken freep a little.

The rest of the party is RINOs, not part of tribe, so its okay for their tribe to attack them.

It's part of this idea that both parties are really just manipulating the public by pretending to be enemies while they work together to loot the country for personal gain. Interestingly enough it's a common idea on both the extreme left and extreme right, though they think the goal of the "uniparty" is different depend on which side's conspiracy theory you listen to.

The funny and sad thing is that in a much earlier time, like, early in the GWB administration, a lot, if not most Freepers used to make fun of Hannity and talk poo poo about what a mouth breathing, knuckle dragging idiot he was. This was back when they used to have people like Tony Snow, White House Press Secretary, having active accounts on the site. Any freeper who would think like that has long since moved on or gotten the zot.
