Unfortunately a good 40% of the country are so brainwashed by propaganda that they think that what Trump is doing is good. Someone is going to start the second civil war, but nobody is eager to fire the first shots.

They are hilariously wrong a lot of the time.

And Tasmanians, and Native Americans, and Indians, and Kenyans, and Irish…

Not if Trump gets his way

IIRC, the Democrats used the filibuster more during Trump’s first term than the Republicans did during Obama’s second term. It is a highly flawed tool, but it does have its uses. Yeah, we are going to be able to pass more things we want, but so will the opposition.

I think we should get rid of the filibuster because it has allowed the Executive to take more power. That doesn’t mean it will be entirely positive. It might even be a net negative. Remember that we got rid of the filibuster for supreme court appointments and that is what allowed the Republicans to take a supermajority there.

Little sea raviolis.

The last time the Dems had a filibuster proof trifecta, it was for about 2 months and they passed Obamacare. The Repubs spent the next decade trying to break it. The Democrats have a lot of issues, but they are NOT the major problem here.

You mean the continuing resolution that would have caused a government shut down which Trump would have used to take more power and a meaningless symbolic vote?

Yes, but that would have affected virtually nothing Trump has done since gaining office again.

That’s Lincoln Square. The lot was behind a block long strip of popular restaurants and businesses and served as the collective parking for all of them. Removing it pretty much guarantees the street parking along that block will never be removed, when otherwise that block would be a prime candidate to be made a pedestrian-only block.

Can’t filibuster executive orders.

Maybe he’s mad there are no Star Wars movies on the list. I hear he is a big Jar Jar fan.

The average studio apartment in my area is 600 square feet. That is way too small of a space for a 2 bedroom.

The Mormons know what would happen to them if a true Christian theocracy arose at the federal level.

And yet they are still regularly wrong. Because statistics are probability, not certainty.

So are we not doing perjury anymore?

I think he assumes that as long as nobody in the police or military stops him, he has the authority to do whatever he wants.

Tell all the American citizens and legal residents that are being abducted and deported without due process that Democrats would only be a bit better.

It’s new that they aren’t even pretending to play by the same rules
