Nancy & Chuck Can't Get Legislation On Trump's Desk. How Is He Responsible?

[dudmuck]

Pelosi's job is to negotiate a bill that will pass in the Senate. She refuses to negotiate.

The President is patiently waiting for Pelosi to do her job and for both Pelosi and McConnell to send him somethi g to sign.

If you cant keep basic facts straight, you lose credibility.
Its actually not a shutdown, its a right-wing coup.

 

[easyt65]

we are suppose to have 3 branches of government....

McConnell giving up the entire Senate to only what the president wants is abandoning his constitutional obligation to keep the branches of government independent, and separate.... he should be FIRED....

Pelosi giving up the country because she and Democrats hate Trump is worse.

Democrats are claiming the President is holding the country hostage; however, there is no budget legislation on the Presiden's desk to sign.

Pelosi wanted the gavel, she got the gavel, and then she immediately shut down the government by refusing to work and compromise with the Republicans in the Senate or the President.

Just this afternoon Pelosi once again told the President that if he agreed to open the government (by signing legislation that reaches his desk) and gives her everything she wants she will still give him nothing.

Afrer this, any further claims that President Trump is to blame for this shutdown is moot because Pelosi just proved that to be a false narrative.

As of right now Nancy Pelosi is a FAILURE as Speaker of the House because she can't get legislation that will become law passed because she refuses to negotiate or compromise. She wants what she wants - period. That's not how American politics works....this is all on her now.

Nancy, do your job and work to get REAL legislation passed and on the President's desk instead of engaging in partisan political theatrics that is hurting Americans!

Okay, what’s the republic compromise that your claiming the Speaker missed?

He took responsibility:

As you may remember.

Wait...what has the Senate passed?

The GOP controlled Senate.

The Dem House already passed a Continuing Resolution INCLUDING money for border security

The way it is supposed to work is that the House passes legislation.
The Senate is supposed to take it up and work on the bill.
Then they have conferees to hammer out differences.
The re-worked bill then is passed (or rejected) by both houses.
Then it goes to the President’s desk for a signing or a vetoing.

The House did it’s job.
The Senate needs to do it’s job. But, as we saw with Garland…the GOP senate refuses to uphold it’s responsibility. This is another example of why we need to have written into the Constitution…rules that regulate how the Chambers of Congress will work.

Most of the killings are done by you. The Orlando Gay Club massacre was done by a an Islamic friend. There is a law suit against the Police department because they did not go in as quick as they should according to the accusers. With all of the blood and fluids and gasses released from the victims the police privately feared being exposed to HIV/AIDS. They did not have to say a word. If an economic collapse ever occurs for any reason, what do you think will happen nationally? Do you think that people will gladly give up their lives for others if they do not know them in any way? You guys have cashed checks. Many checks. Many many checks that you have not paid for. There will be family members doing the worst to each other in that environment. Ego driven people getting their just desserts. I have a brother in law named Crippled Ken a civilian worker at a new jersey airbase who thinks his chitt does not stink. I care not for him. And so do tens of millions of people with every other way doing the same in their environments.

Nice spin on that, but it was Trump who gleefully stated he will take credit for a government shutdown. He is using the wall to extort American taxpayer dollars after promising that Mexico would pay for his wall. So there's no point in bringing up or offering legislation that he will just say NO to.

Even Mitch McConnell stated there is no point in working with Trump, as he will say yes one day, then after listening to Rush Limbaugh and others will change his mind at the last minute. Apparently Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and your other reich wing nut case talk show hosts are now running the country.



The great deal maker--

And here is a Texas Republican congressman whose district is 840 miles of the border and what he thinks of Trump's worthless wall.

"Building a wall is the most expensive and least effective way to secure the border," Hurd, a former CIA officer whose district includes 800 miles along the border, more than any other lawmaker, said earlier this year. "There is no question that we must secure our border, but we need an intelligence-led approach."

Trump wants a border wall, but few in Congress want to pay for it
