It really boils down to Chuck or Trump and their toughness and their willingness to see this through regardless of the outcome and who prefers who as far as who the American MALE voters are more likely to identify with and support at this point or show up in mass to support support in 2020. I can't stand liberal wimps who bow down to lesser/ weaker women regardless of whether they're right or wrong, lying or seriously lacking legitimate proof, whether they're chosen or hand picked and advanced because they happen to be a woman instead of a man and so forth.(12-12-2018, 06:47 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote:(12-12-2018, 02:32 PM)Eric the Green Wrote: Stephen Colbert outdid himself about how Trump outdid himself with his over-the-top tantrums.

Heads up! Oh Trumpie, he has erectile dysfunction now!
Quote:(language unsuited for a family audience redacted) Yeah, you kind of got to laugh at these serious issues that blue comedians fail to view as serious issue or aren't able to look at seriously or are to busy entertaining to actually pay attention to what was going on, what was being said and what all was being communicated (the body language and the points being expressed and so forth) during the exchanges. He was telling them that he was politically immune to the negative impacts associated with a government shutdown and he's right. We don't care if the government shuts down and a bunch of blue voters (public sector employees go without paychecks for a few weeks/several weeks) are financially forced to sacrifice for a bunch of people who don't matter as much as the people their government wages and federal revenues are being used to support. I think it would be a great way to test how strong blue values actually are in this country and within the Democratic party.
Trump tries to do Machiavellian politics to the extent possible in America (reward allies, but punish the rest), but he just does not do it well. He may also be going too far in accordance with the checks and balances.
Remember: the House controls the budget, and on that Nancy Pelosi and Donald Trump will be equals on January 3. Democrats have priorities other than an environmentally-blighting, budget-busting wall on the border. He can get a smarter border, one with better electronic detection, the sort that can detect a jackrabbit making an illegal crossing of the border and can give the Border Patrol more lead time on catching a border-crosser. But that is as far as things can reasonably go.
I mean, are illegal blue citizens really worth all the sacrifices that American workers are being expected to make for them these days. I agree with Trumps view as well. I thinks it's probably best to get the elitist blue (queen Nancy) out of the way early so the next two years aren't a complete loss as far as getting things down for the American people for a change vs doing nothing done like the politicians of old who are now working for CCN and MSNBC were doing wth their time and our money less than a decade ago. I mean, if you ain't a mover and shaker politician these days, what good are you these days. I'm there's got to be some reddish minded blues who understand the value of making progress and being associated with actual accomplishments vs being viewed as a liberal only who is only interested in voting liberal and going along with liberals.
I mean, she looks good until she opens her mouth and the mind of a clueless blue comes out. If blue brains worked properly, the blue would be able to see that there are larger problems like illegal immigration ( an issue that costs America a hell of a lot more money and causes a lot more issues for American citizens than the idea of building a wall) and healthcare costs which Obamacare wasn't ever really intended to address or fix.
