Rand Paul tries to blackmail the democrats into not calling trump a racist? No DACA unless

dems bend over and let trump be a racist without anyone in congress being allowed to say it out loud? Hmmm, wonder how that’s going to work out.

This administration, it’s acolytes and syncophants are losing their grip on reality, if they ever really had it.

What next? Burning a cross on the House floor?

When do the decent people in our political conservative structure stand up and finally say enough is enough? Or have they all come under the thrall of the beast occupying the Oval Office? Entranced by the flame of seeming POWER? The thrill of feeling like you can squash all those little people who keep getting stuck in the figurative wheel well of your monster SUV.

The Republican Party is about to go the way of the Dinosaurs and no one of any reasonable intelligence will wonder why.

That could turn it into a Dem tsunami. It will shore up the racist GOP base but that is about it.

That's one thing consistently in the Dems favor: these GOP people in charge are not very bright

day and said for the Congress to bring him a bill and he'd sign it. A bill made of Love. Well they bring him a bill and he say's "you expect me to sign that?" "Try again. I need less Haitians, Salvadorians, and Africans and more Norweigens. Got it?"

We got it alright.

"GOP will deport Dreamers if Dems continue denouncing the plan as racist"

But let's not fool ourselves: GOP will also deport Dreamers if Dems stop denouncing the plan as racist

this is the effect of not voting or not voting for the lesser of 2 evils
