All you can do is tough vetting, thanks to that idiot Harry Reid.

51 vote is all you need brah.

ncoming Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) is promising a "tough vetting" of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), President-elect Donald Trump's pick to be attorney general.

Schumer, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, declined in an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press" to offer any "quick judgements" on Trump's nominees.

"It's premature to make any decisions but, except to say a very thorough and tough vetting for a Senate colleague, as well as for anybody else," he said.

I thought "tough vetting" was racist.

He is a minority leader that will live under the nuclear option enacted by the pedo from Nevada, so he is a toothless tiger.

A tough vetting, followed by Trump appointees being shoved down his throat.

The nuclear option was loved by silly fricks like Vegas Bengal and Rex.

When they pulled all this shite trying to shove Barry's bullshite legislation and agenda up our arse it was my hope and prayer that we could have the opportunity to do the same shite to the left.


This is going to be fun.

Trump's "grab them in the p*%^*" PR nightmare was played ten thousand times, and guess what. The Left has 'cried wolf' to the end that there is nothing they can say that will affect what those who support Trump's agenda. Thanks to Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer the path is wide open to stack the Supreme Court and ram through Law that will be hard to overcome unless the Dems can rule both Houses in the future. And that is highly unlikely. And even if they do, the Right can go rogue, just like the Left is gearing up to do in the next year.

Be silently professional now, Mr. Trump. And when you take office, unleash your offensive because your political enemies declared war on you at least one year ago, and they have no intention to stop until you are impeached and jailed.

So, don't go soft.

The horror.

Take note that Schumer and Trump are longtime friends and Trump complimented him on Twitter this morning.

Are you suggesting the nuclear option doesn't apply?

I have always had a good relationship with Chuck Schumer. He is far smarter than Harry R and has the ability to get things done. Good news!

I'm not suggesting it. I'm stating it as fact.

Not untrue. Trump and Schumer are 'players'; they'll establish their opening bets, and then play from there. Schumer knows that Trump has the upper hand; and it will be interesting to see where Schumer goes if Obama remains politically active in a big way. Schumer knows that the election of Trump is a result of Obama's radical action as POTUS. I doubt he'll continue to follow Obama over the cliff.

So the rules of the Senate only apply when you want them?
