Ok you fucking bastards....

[PCIntern]

You RWers are gonna start with the bipartisan-by-necessity crap and I and others are here to tell you that just like your candidate for the governorship of PA said: we are gonna stomp all over your faces with cleated golf shoes, you lying, hypocritical Motherfuckers.

We are gonna kick your collective asses and toast your nuts on Pennsylvania Avenue so get your affairs in order, assholes and get ready to be pummeled.

Jerkoffs.

[joshcryer]

1. Please.

Please oh please oh please dispense with the bullshit bipartisan crap. Dems. Please. You were elected for a reason. To raise hell.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

6. +1

[BeckyDem]

8. Exactly as I see it. Our wins are not about joining in on their bullshit policies.

[Locrian]

15. yes - if there is any time then now is it

no more of this bullshit "keep your powder dry".

Its time to go full attack mode.

[disillusioned73]

46. Yes please...

[Hermit-The-Prog]

31. clean Houses NOW

Reach across the aisle to hand 'em subpoenas or smack the crime out their lyin lips.

[mountain grammy]

38. Yes! K&R

[Garrett78]

52. Yep. We're not dealing with a reasonable opposition.

If Dems haven't figured that out by now, we're screwed.

[Zoonart]

2. I love you Philly! THIS X10000

[peekaloo]

4. I'm sorry but could you make that statement a little clearer?

kidding

[mr_lebowski]

29. It's pretty nuanced, but if I understand it correctly, and by all means, I may be reading this wrong

But I THINK ... after considerable thoughtful deliberation, that the authors gist, as they say ... boils down to something along the lines of ...

"You Know What? FUCK YOU!"

A sentiment which ... by-the-by ... I heartily endorse ...

[peekaloo]

35. I love the smell of a righteous "fuck you" in the morning.

[Cha]

61. lol!

[LuckyCharms]

5. Exactly!

[lapislzi]

10. The North remembers

And that Nazis are bad.....

Go for it.

Nancy.

12. Cliche time!

It's clobbering time!

Payback's a bitch!

This is gonna leave a mark

Help me out here!

[sarge43]

18. No prisoners? n/t

[packman]

13. Come on, PCIntern - Tell us how you really feel

Me, I want to see those fuckin' Tax returns which I think is the soul of his evilness and corruption.

[joshcryer]

14. James Clyburn is talking soft right now on CNN.

Disappointing.

[sarge43]

16. Go Celtic on their ass.

Never forget; never forgive.

[Autumn]

17. Republicans have no honesty, decency or compassion. I want no bipartisanship with

animals like that, they want people who are not just like them dead or suffering . Fuck them and their calls for bipartisanship

[brush]

53. Right! When they had all the power we never heard the word bipartisanship.

I want subpoenas, investigations and public hearings to expose all their crimes and greed.

[The Liberal Lion]

19. Here's what I think

Everyone knows I'm not game on seeing Nancy as Speaker, but for the sake of peace among us I'll support her. However, I think Nancy is going to play good cop, while she allows Auntie Maxine and Adam Schiff to rip trump and his band of nazis a new asshole.

And let's be clear, I am 100% for government shutdown and putting a stranglehold on the finances of this country. I believe the system is utterly broken, can't be repaired and needs to be destroyed. However, that's not very practical. Winning the House and rebuilding the Blue Wall tells me there is a chance to get this country back on the right path. However getting there will be tenuous.

Those are my thoughts.

[Grasswire2]

28. Yes.

Trump will relish attacks because his base will bind more tightly to him.

Victimization is his fallback state. It allows him to whine and punch back.

[skypilot]

20. I love how the words...

..."bipartisan" and "deficit" suddenly creep back into their vocabulary whenever Democrats gain some control.

[NCDawg]

21. DAMN SKIPPY!!!

Tired of spineless retorts. Time for turning the other cheek is over! Fuck em' and feed em' fish eyes!!!

[world wide wally]

22. We won the House because we were aggressive.

Don't change horses now

[Fatemah2774]

23. Harry Truman Time

Give them hell. By telling the truth, these bastards think that is hell.

And for those RWNJ who vote against their self interest, remember if you want to live like a Republican you have to vote for the Democratic Party.

[In It to Win It]

25. Fuck Bipartisanship

[Grasswire2]

26. you know Trump is going to run on victimization.

This is going to require some strategy from Dems.

Overwhelming evidence of corruption and collusion must prevail.

[Sunsky]

27. Point blank period

The games these Republicans play. They can take their bipartisanship and shove it wherever.

[DeSmet]

30. I don't know

Its a chess game right now. Would it be best to obtain those tax returns near the 2020 election? People tend to forget. Can the oversight card be held back as long as Mueller is unfettered?

The first thing I'd like to see is the House hold Trump to his promise of a 10% tax cut for the middle class. Offset it fiscally with a corresponding increase in wealthy and corporate taxation. Make him choose. He'll be trapped between a rock and a hard place. Show the folks who believe this guy who he really works for. Watch him squirm.

Think like his followers. I'm not talking about the nationalists. I mean the good folk you know who still back him. Therein lies his strength. We need to convince enough of them he is a fraud.


Trumps head on a spike isn't the prize. Winning elections is. Don't sacrifice one for the other.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

33. I ain't concerned about tax cuts

The House should try to repeal all or parts of that awful tax scam that the GOP passed

[Whiskeytide]

55. That was the poster's point, I think. ...

... Pass a house version of a middle class tax cut that undoes much of the trump tax cuts and preserves medicare and social security - AND CLEARLY AND SIMPLY SAYS JUST THAT, and only that (don't attach a bunch of additional agenda items to it) - so that the Senate republicans and/or trump have to show their true colors - for or against it.

I genuinely believe we can - and should - both lead by popular policy example AND thoroughly investigate the trump administration at the same time.

If WE make this mostly about bringing down trump, it plays into his paranoid fantasies.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

58. I see

[DeSmet]

69. Yes thanks...

Whiskeytide. Exactly what I offered. Legislation mirroring his empty promises as the campaign wound down. "These were your promises to the American people Mr. president." Erode his supporters numbers. Don't enrage them.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

60. It may not be the prize

BUT I WANT TO SEE trmp's HEAD ON A SPIKE.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

32. Well

We have a lot of new, fresh faces coming into the House, some of whom like AOC who are firebrands. Hopefully, they push the leadership to dispense with the comity. Also, unlike with George W. Bush, Trump is a WAY more polarizing figure.

[PCIntern]

34. Corregidor!!!!

I ahgree witchoo in Toto.

[Baltimike]

36. elections have consequences. nt

[Hekate]

37. Piquant. Incisive. Articulate.

[NoMoreRepugs]

39. Exactly, no prisoners in this war. Finally, equivalency I can get behind.

[eleny]

40. I hope you took the day off, hon

No using sharp instruments today!

[A-Schwarzenegger]

43. Hahaha!

"toast your nuts on Pennsylvania Avenue" !!

[47of74]

49. More like toast their mushrooms

[Pluvious]

44. I have just ONE WORD for them...

45. I prefer baseball cleats, but

golf cleats will do in a pinch.

[Harker]

47. Third time...

ummmm... don't get fooled again.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

48. We need a relentless media counter-attack campaign as well.

The right-wing machine has attacked Democrats and all marginalized sectors of American society with lies and deception for over 40 years, and they've done it 24/7 on various media formats.

IMO, we need a program of counter-attack spots on TV, radio, print media, and social media to awaken our society to truth. I'm thinking 15-second spots on TV and radio and simple truthful black-and-white ads for print and social media.

And, no letting up until we regain control of government and build strong fences around the plutocrats, to whom a very strong message must be sent:
"We shall have our country and government back and it is no longer for sale".......

[Fritz Walter]

50. And the horse's ass they rode in(to office) on

Started reading this at my lunch break, but had to run an errand before I could finish it. In the car, I heard part of baby donnie’s press conference, where he openly attacked Democrats on live radio.

If that’s how he wants to work, so be it!

[Hotler]

54. Maybe we should choreograph a Haka for our members in the House.

for the start of the first day. Watch this and pretend we are in black.

[3catwoman3]

59. As the bumper sticker says, "It takes leather balls...

...to play rugby."

I suspect some of the new congressional reps have leather ovaries.

[Marcuse]

65. I have seen this before. Good to see it again.

And Betty is right!

[jmowreader]

66. What "bipartisan" means to a Republican

"Democrat, you give up everything and take all my positions. And you smile when you do it."

[BumRushDaShow]

67. For those curious about what PCIntern is referring to

Although they are still counting votes, Wolf (D) won by > 825,000 votes.

[KSNY]

68. I see it a bit differently...

It seems like they are going on the attack and accusing Democrats and the responsible press of dishonesty, manipulation, inciting violence, misogyny, etc. (all of which the the Trumpers are guilty of) in the hope of keeping their base outraged and of winning back some of the uninformed who might become disillusioned and not vote next time (oh, and they intend to keep that quite difficult to do as well). There will be a few insincere calls for bipartisanship, of course, but mostly they will keep on attacking. It's the Roy Cohn playbook.

I hope that the state legislatures which will have a Democratic majority (New York, for instance) will work to make voting easier to do (same-day registration, easier mail-in options, online voting, etc.)
