The American People Will Use Their Nuclear Option In 2018....

as they win back both the Senate & the House for the Dems.

The Repugs are setting themselves up now for a bloodbath at the polls.

Trump, the Russians and the Repugs in Congress don't realize that the American People are watching and listening to their every move.

The American People are as mad as hell and aren't going to take it any longer.

Trump & the Repugs have set themselves up for a severe drubbing.

Although having Fox and Limbaugh lying for them protects the GOP a little.

I really wonder what Fox News will look like going forward what with all the sexual harrassment settlements, ongoing lawsuits and new allegations popping up. They've already lost 2 big sponsors, Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai because of that.

There still will be some on the low power local radio stations that buy syndicated programming, but more AM stations are tuning to all sports talk or all news.

as the Harry Reid option. When Senator Reid did this in 2013 I thought it was bad then and even worse now

But the Dems aren't disciplined enough to all pick the same words to use. They are like lambs to the slaughter in the media.

Then Dems can start pressuring Rs like Heller and Collins now that they know their vote actually means something. Manchin, Heidkamp and Donnelly won't get a pass either for the same reason. More than just about anything, these senators like their nice gov't taxpayer-funded jobs and want to keep them.
