You didn't know Republicans in Congress are far different than the Republicans and Conservatives on this board ?

They are pussies , it's why they don't like Trump and why we do.

The senior ladies lunch club at the First Baptist Church likes to rock the boat more than the US Senate does.

I'd prefer at least one party to retain some modicum of the ability to follow the rules and not be petty children.

The main reason is the 4 spineless senators named Romney, Murkowski, Collins and Lee.

Without those 4 there is no majority.

This is why you lose. Repubs should have come out and said "We will authorize the same rules used by the house" and dropped the mic.

This is, in part, why we’re in the mess we’re in. We’re in an ideological civil war in this country and you don’t win by playing nice guy.

If it was the House I might agree. But this is the Senate.

It has traditionally been the "adult" half of Congress, and I'd like it to stay that way.

I agree, and that should start after jamming this up the dems asses and dismissing this witch hunt.

If you can win without being an a-hole, why be an a-hole?

And lose moderates that are fed up with the Dem's and their tactics? Keep in mind the Media would tear the GOP a new one. While yes, it is a double standard it's how they treat non-jackasses.

Quite likely, because they anticipate when the President's legal team is done, Nancy and Chuck are going to be screaming out...

Agree. Sometimes it's best to just go ahead and ease on out with a win. Even strut away with that win. But don't put the luster of the win at risk with unnecessary actions. Plus, why risk unintentionally opening a door that could cause unforeseen and, again, unnecessary complications??
