seriously? this is what you're going with?
It's true.
Not according to what most every Liberal in this country says. They don't think it's EVER been great much less now.

You realize that specific legislation can negate a national emergency. In fact, the power is legislative—not constitutional. The entire bill can be repealed.

Yes, but good luck getting it past President Beto O'Rourke's veto pen. Especially on an issue like gun control or climate change that is exceedingly popular.

The only democrat that I can even halfway stomach is Hillary. I think she's a liar and a crook and a charlatan. But I'll punt local races and register democrat to vote for her in the 2020 primary, because at least she's not a communist.
I'd rate my preferences is this order:
1) A libertarian
2) Any republican other than Trump
3) Trump
4) Manchin
5) Hillary
6) Any other democrat
You may want to say that democrats aren't communists. Fine. Give me a list of policies they favor that aren't moving us in the direction of communism.

President Beto OCrook. Now that's a laugh. That jerkhead has NEVER accomplished anything other than run for office. Oh yeah, he married a rich mans daughter. I'd join the skyscreamers if he ever got elected president, that's a fact. It even makes my stomach turn just thinking about it, you know, exactly how I felt the 8 LooOOOOOOOnnnnngg years Oblunder was president.

RE: Suprise..Suprise..Marco Rubio: warns against declaring a national emergency....
Y'all are in for a rough 10 years. LOL.
Two years of the set up, a truly punishing election wipe out for the GOP where they lose the Presidency, 6 Senate seats, 20 or so more Congressional seats and a slew of state houses, and then 8 years of Globalist bliss, filled with all kinds of wonderful things like gun control, Medicare for all, taxation of carried interest at ordinary rates, universal voter registration for all citizens, carbon taxes and CAFE standards, civil rights protections for LGBT persons, sensible border reform, redistricting, campaign finance reform (in the constitutionally sound form of a big fat tax on campaign contributions to a candidate, 501c3 or 501c4 over a certain amount per cycle), and bans on discriminatory organizations receiving taxpayer dollars
Little Marco Rubio is gonna be screaming his head off. But it won't matter because you see, he never voted against Trump in the Senate. He never tried to stop Trump from turning 60% of the country against him and his movement. And just like Pete Wilson in California, Trump is going to be a millstone that is going to have political resonance a long time after he goes off to jail or exile.
Mmmm. Popcorn. The show really gets started in about 6 months, when the straw polls start. In a year, the GOP freak out will be in full bloom. I fully expect this page to be littered with breathless and increasingly desperate and shrill claims that every Democrat is a Socialist, that any tiny gaffe is the 'end of their campaign', etc.

On option #2 Any Republican? Even Little Jebbie or Mitt? To me they are far worse than Trump I'd take Elizabeth Warren or Spartacus over them. Any of these would wreck the economy and do nothing about immigration but better to have a democrat do the wrecking so GOP Conservatives might become much more appealing.

lolol
Medicare 4 all is coastal fringe. Hell, not even (thinking of Coons). More like just CA, NYC, and the islamic takeover districts in MI and MN. I do find it hilarious that 1 of the 4 states where both dem senators support it, is the state that tried and failed to implement it.
You're painting yourself into a corner on that one. It may win you some elections via dumb kids that think they're going to get something "for free", but when you inevitably fail to deliver, the backlash from the alt-left is going to mmm popcorn, indeed.

Yep. I'd probably take Fauxcohontas or Spartacus over Hitler or Stalin, but the list is pretty short after that. Hell, considering that Hitler and Stalin are both dead, they might be less dangerous.

Speaking of MITT, Harry Reid just endorsed him for 2020 GOP candidate, that speaks volumes. Romney couldn't beat any democrat that's why Reid wants him to run.

All the "great things" progressive libtards will do.
1) Ban private citizen gun ownership
2) Health Care system every bit as good as VA Healthcare
3) Crippling taxes on the middle class
4) Carbon Taxes that will increase Energy Prices by at least 500%
5) Open Borders
6) Only Unions and Special interest groups will be allowed to give large contributions to PACs and Political parties
7) Christian Churches will be taxed if they teach biblical truth not politically acceptable religion, Muslims will be exempted
Yes it will be HELL on earth for common sense people

You can't say he accomplished nothing. He almost got away with running from the scene of a drunk accident at age 26. And as best as I can tell he didn't go to jail for it.
