He claimed he was going to sign it, but he also talked about Vetoing it. Either way regardless of what he does, he clowned on the Dems, again.

Matt Zerella posted:can someone explain to me why the brain worms crowd thinks Schumer outmaneuvered/beat trump? Because he signed a bill and said he didn't want to, even though it's full of grift and has no protections for anything the dems proport to care about. The only reason donny said he was upset was because it didn't fund his stupid wall.

WAPO - So they gave Democrats almost everything they wanted. Here are some of the ways Democrats won out in this bill, despite being in the minority in both houses: $1.6 billion for border fencing, but with the specification that it only apply to existing designs, meaning no wall. The Fix NICS Act, which modestly improves the existing gun background-check system, plus a provision instructing the Centers for Disease Control that it is free to conduct research on gun violence. Such research was effectively stopped in 1996. A slight increase to the IRS budget. While not nearly what the agency needs, especially given the challenge of implementing the new tax law, at least it doesn’t continue the long-standing GOP effort to starve the IRS of funds and make enforcement a joke. $380 million in assistance to states to improve the security of their election systems, and $300 million to the FBI to combat Russian hacking of those systems. No repeal of the Johnson Amendment, which prevents churches from endorsing candidates and acting as political organizations. President Trump has advocated that the amendment be repealed. A bar on employers such as restaurants keeping any portion of workers’ tips. The Trump Labor Department had proposed allowing tip “pooling,” including letting the boss control and potentially take workers’ tips. Increases for the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities. Trump had proposed eliminating them entirely. No cuts to the EPA (Trump had proposed cutting the agency’s budget by a third) and an increase in funding for clean energy research through ARPA-E, which Trump had proposed eliminating entirely. Increased funding for affordable housing. Increased education funding, along with what nearly everyone is describing as a complete rejection of Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos’s agenda. Increased funding for the National Institutes of Health. A doubling of child-care funding for low-income families. No defunding of sanctuary cities or Planned Parenthood.

I really don't see the "pathway to citizenship" people claimed this created, unless it's holding off on the wall funding as a way to get movement from Trump on DACA

Also Schumer & Pelsoi will never be out of the leadership because this is being seen as a triumph. Do not bother supporting primary opponents against them. Save your cash.

loquacius posted:Hot take: WJ and Zeg are both legit good posters when they're not being purposely antagonistic Yeah; WJ sometimes makes some reasonable points regarding leftists sorta getting overenthusiastic over people who don't warrant it or losing sight of what the important goals are beyond the current stuff talked about among progressives, though I think the antagonistic tone is pointless and counterproductive. CC will sometimes correct wrong things posters say, but the general goal of his points doesn't seem to be anything useful beyond antagonizing the left.

yeah biden is out of the eye enough for dems that dems they still think of cheery uncle joe from the good ol obama days but if theres one thing that dem voters arent going to do post-11/9 its make apologies for powerful male sexual assaulters (as much as the bad dem donors and leaders are hoping they would for franken and other dems)

joepinetree posted:Honestly, I think that Biden running tremendously helps Bernie. It splits the establishment vote and blunts a lot of the dishonest "Bernie is standing in the way of women" attacks. A lot of the white working class people who backed Bernie over Hillary will go to Joe, though, because they don't actually understand policy whatsoever. The key is having enough Resistocrats to split the post-Obama voters between Biden and others, because at present he has worrisome cross-demographic appeal (due to circumstances entirely unrelated to his merits, e.g. he was the Obama VP, he's a white man, he "tells it like it is" etc.).

self unaware posted:look at this idiot He's right, Biden would actually be favored over Trump. As would most candidates. Trump is a REALLY bad candidate, lest we forget. This is another good argument for why we should all be pushing for a solid progressive rather than some lovely compromise candidate; it's a huge opportunity (as was 2016, but the Dems "decided" to pick the weakest candidate in modern history for that one).
