We got the best government the corporations can buy and drunken fascists cheerlead it on. Trump toasts you.

RE: Senate rules leave lots of nominees in limbo
Booming economy with more to come. Thousands of our fellow Americans are getting bonuses, millions will get to keep more of their hard earned money that the government has been stealing from them, Obama's ISIS legacy in Iraq has been routed, illegal border crossings are down to a 45 year low, the judicial system is being restocked with constitutionalists instead of activists, and we are rooting out the political leeches in the Justice Dept slowly but surely. Making America great again one day at a time.
It's just an added bonus to watch socialists like you cry and whine as we step by step remove the corruption and malaise of the Obama era.

Some of these nominations were rejected by Republicans themselves. Some withdrew because of some things they did in the past. Some got past through who wasted tax payer's money for lavish trips like Price, Mnuchin and some others.

With 1.2 billion, the corporations tried to buy another stint in the White House for the Clintons. They failed. The corporations, Wall St., Hollywood, the media, were all on Hillary's side.
Instead, people like the ones who live around you in Ohio, got heard for the first time in 3 decades.

Every administration has dogs. Obama had 60 senators and still got some rejected. And there were a few more who should have been rejected.

It was dirty pool, but politics is by definition dirty pool. Lets just not pretend that any party has clean hands.
Lets not pretend the Democrats aren't doing 10 times what the Republicans did either.
That is about the most partisan post I can imagine.
Obama had 8 nominees sent back. Trump has over 100. I know Democrats like to pretend facts don't exist, only opinions. But facts do exist.
Math doesn't apply to liberals.

Sadly, Congress and Senate are now bound by Their own party leadership. The leadership tells Them how to vote. There is No longer freedom to give individual opinions on nearly anything. If You were a Democrat that actually supported the Republican tax cut plan, You had better not let it be known much less vote for it or You will be cut off for party funding come re election time. The same could be said the other way but some Republicans usually give in to the Democrat agenda without too much problems like the repeal of Obamacare vote went.

They flipped the Supreme Court by obstruction yet have the temerity to complain.
No, we replaced a constitutionalist justice with another constitutionalist justice. Had the unqualified Garland been seated the court would have been flipped. We maintained the status quo.
When the walking corpse Ginsberg croaks we'll flip the Supreme Court. And I'll enjoy watching you cry and ***** and moan when it happens.
Lol, thought She was on Her deathbed 8 years ago. Dems used it as a scare tactic to motivate the far left libs to get off their A$$ and vote.
