A good example  Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell this morning told Hugh Hewitt on MSNBC that amnesty for the recipients of the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals could form part of a deal with the Democrats, in exchange for things such as scrapping the Diversity Visa programme. “Republicans are not necessarily opposed to that,” replied McConnell, when Hewitt asked if there is a “compromise” to be had on DACA in exchange for “some border security” and “some additional vetting from people from suspect countries”. “Yeah, I think so,” said McConnell, adding, “I think there ought to be something related to making the American legal immigration system better, achieved along with DACA”. While he attempted to channel President Trump in his response, the plan revealed during the campaign had no such “compromises” built in — in fact there is zero wiggle-room when it comes to amnesty for illegal immigrants. “Day One, my first hour in office, those people are gone,” candidate Trump told the Phoenix rally following his meeting with Mexican President Pena Nieto. McConnell critics believe the new Republican plan to sneak DACA amnesty through would effectively hand the House of Representatives to the Democrats in 2018, leading to an impeachment push by potential Democrat House leadership. In comments to the Remembrance Project today, Breitbart News Executive Chairman told a room of supporters, “It’s obvious to everyone that we are going to have to take over the Republican Party”. He added that Republicans would almost certainly lose the House of Representatives if they sneak DACA in, and that leads to the impeachment of the President. The theory goes that a lack of enthusiasm amongst Republican voters who oppose DACA amnesty would lead to massive attrition across the nation — no show voters, or even those perhaps wanting to give the Republicans a kicking voting for a different party’s candidate. Evidence from the 2010 election in the United Kingdom backs this theory up. Almost a dead cert for Prime Minister, David Cameron managed to avoid winning a parliamentary majority by tackling left at the end of his campaign, focusing on “green” issues, and trying to win over left-leaning Guardian readers instead of focusing on the conservative base. As a thank you, conservative voters stayed home, or voted for a different party such as the UK Independence Party, a trend which continued all the way through to 2015. Mr. Cameron didn’t get a majority, and was forced to govern in coalition with Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats. As a result, almost no conservative legislation was passed, as the government ended up focusing on tangential issues such as same sex marriage and a referendum on the alternative voting system. President Trump and Republican leadership would do well to learn the lessons of Mr. Cameron’s failures, and instead of attempting to sneak in DACA amnesty, use every opportunity to attempt to pass more border security measures — wall funding, e-Verify plans, and the deportation of criminal illegal aliens which were supposed to be “Day One” measures. http://www.breitbart.com/londo...mpeachment-attempts/ | |||

Correction, they just don't care. They are trying to wait him out. They want business as usual and are willing to trade control of congress to keep their personal gravy trains rolling. "Your turn, my turn. Hey who gets president next"? | |||

George H.W. Bush has a new book coming out. In it, he reveals- “I don’t like him,” George H.W. Bush said in the book. “I don’t know much about him, but I know he’s a blowhard. And I’m not too excited about him being a leader.” He also reveals in his book that he actually voted for Hillary instead of Trump. I guess he wasn't going to go against family  .What a globalist shitbag. http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...tivated-certain-ego/ "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

Why act suprised and sad? We knew for the longest time the Bushes and the Clintons, and the Obamas, are in bed together. They only care about themselves, their corrupt maggot buddies in the swamp, and their hold on power, while pretending to care about Joe America. But, with the ousider Trump in charge, not playing their brand of politics as usual, they just cannot hide their true selves anymore, and this latest actions of theirs only confirm what we already knew. FUCK THEM! Q | |||

Not really, the Bush family and Clinton family are just two sides of the same coin. Neither group gave a fuck about America, it was/is all about power and legacy for these cocksuckers. | |||

Yeah, and they are calling themselves "THE" conservatives - wondering where we are all taking the party. Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

And I was not too excited about YOU being a leader, either. George H.W. Bush was Reagan's biggest mistake. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Oddball, when we talk about the swamp, the photos you posted say it all. The Bushes disgust me even more than the Clintons or the Obamas. We knew who they were. But the Bushes were so deceitful, so false, that they fooled most of us for a long time. Now we see the slimy, slithering creatures they truly are, and how well they fit in the swamp. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

Plowing straight ahead come what may |
I truthfully feel they do/did not want to be in charge...I think the Republican Party would have been ecstatic to have seen Jeb (fill in the blank with another career Washington swamp creature) get the nomination...lose the election to the harpy...and have the next 4-8 years keeping the status quo (in other words their jobs) as America gets fucked...especially the people like us... The current Republican Party doesn't want the burden of strong leadership where the have make hard choices...they like the position of whiners and little photo op bitches. They are fearful of the idea of MAGA. President Trump being elected to office and the resulting improvement of the American people's situation and economy scares the shit out of them...I think they like having dems lead...it passes responsibility off of them. ******************************************************** "we've gotta roll with the punches, learn to play all of our hunches Making the best of what ever comes our way Forget that blind ambition and learn to trust your intuition Plowing straight ahead come what may And theres a cowboy in the jungle" Jimmy Buffet | |||

^^^^ 100% dead on accurate. The republicans absolutely did not want to be in charge. They wanted to spend the next 8 years crying for donations to help them "stop" whatever regime was in charge. They did not go to congress to help the American people, they went there to increase their personal wealth and to be exempt from real work. | |||
