I know the board is blaming republicans more than the voters. But I come from a time when voters were very different. If this election occured when I was growing up in the 1950s the republican candidates need only make one commercial that said:
"Uhm, my opponent is a communist. Just listen to his promises."
The GOP would have gotten 80% of the vote. The younger voters are different today.

Exactly. To be specific, it was the republican senate that put up a wall and blocked so many bills.


Not voting on bills that you can't get over the 60 vote threshold is not the same as blocking bills. Senate Republicans were so in the tank for Trump that they would have passed anything that they could have to please him.

Yes, globalist neocon punching bags are the road to freedom! Save us, Bushites. You're our only hope.


At this point, yes. Populist have utterly destroyed the Republican party. Maybe some people with principles can get it back on the right track.

This is a straight, in your face lie.

at the risk of sounding obtuse, why would letting Iran have “total control of ME oil” be our problem?

It wouldn't be our problem. They have an economic interest in moving on and being a more mature player in the region and have the population and resources to do it.

We've fooled ourselves into thinking that there is something worth preserving with protecting the interests of the Saudis and Israelis and to a lesser extent the Qataris.

The idea that Thune or Senate Republicans were blocking Trump's agenda is the actual lie.
