While impeachment understandably is getting most of the attention now, in our messaging to the nation Democrats should keep reminding the public that the attack on the Constitution did not begin when Divine Right Donald stepped into the Oval Office and plunked himself down in the big chair behind the big desk nearly three years ago. Nor did the effort to stomp most Democrat-introduced legislation begin on that dreadful day.

Donald Trump was still a joke candidate when Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell decided to undermine the Constitution by refusing even to hold a hearing on President Barack Obama’s moderate choice of Merrick Garland to replace the late Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court. And the presidency wasn’t even a gleam in Trump’s eye when McConnell, in 2009, before Obama was even sworn in, vowed to follow Rush Limbaugh’s implicit advice and try to force the new president to fail by blocking everything he tried to do. First up was stopping any legislation to soften the impacts and shorten the duration of the economic crash that had sent the economy into the most devastating economic downturn since the 1930s. Less than a handful of renegade Republicans was the only reason that recession-ameliorating legislation managed to clear the Senate. The blockade got worse when Republicans regained congressional control after the 2010 election.

The first 283 are “bipartisan.” The final 32 were supported by Democrats only.

The bills are all listed at the link.

Typical GrOPer bullpuckey. Do nothing and blame the other side for doing nothing. Send the national debt in orbit, then make the other side stop spending.

I think if you looked at the Bush years, when the GrOPers were in power they did nothing then as well.

1. The (r)epuglicons say they are out to kill big gov't. But they only want to kill social welfare

programs.

They are perfectly happy funding DoD, police forces, Homeland Security, CIA, charter schools (for rich whites only), foreign aid (for friendly dictators only), etc.
