Old Kentucky Shark posted:No, like, you really, seriously don't understand how government works. At all. There's a lot of dumb poo poo Trump can get away with through executive actions, but there's nothing he can do to Congress that Congress can't trivially undo with the stroke of a pen. Even his ability to turbofuck them in the Republican primaries through the bully pulpit is mitigated by the party's control of the campaign fund purse strings -- a threat that might have had more weight behind it had he not just fired the former head of the RNC in a humiliating fashion. I think Trump is going to get some weird records, things nobody thought to track before. Like number of times he got the entire house and senate to vote lockstep against him. See Russia sanctions.

Going back one news story (which got superseded by Racist Pigshit within 12 fukkin hours, lol), but do y'all think McCain would've voted no without the cancer? It's fun to consider whether this is a morbid lame-duck move, or seeing the error of his ways, or whether he was planning this since "I prefer heroes who weren't captured"

I love that Trump is almost guaranteed to take the vindictive route and just refuse to put forth the funding for the current health care system out of pure spite. Apparently it's 3 weeks out until the funding has to be put forward. Just impeccable inspiring leadership as always.
