| The right plans to blame incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for the government shutdown. |
Goodbye to Paul Ryan, the former Wisconsin lawmaker who held the title of Speaker of The House. He leaves Washington, DC with a legacy.
As he returns to Janesville, the Republican can at least say to his former constituents, I changed the tax code for generations.
Oh by the way, me and Mitch McConnell piled on trillions of debt.
The Republicans still continue to hold control of Congress until January 3rd.
On the 3rd, Democrats take control of the House of Representatives.
They will now see a contiguous Donald J. Trump. The imbecile will now try to blame incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for his turmoils.
This is the second week of the partial government shutdown. Over 800,000 federal workers will not see a paycheck. And it's thanks to Trump's stupid ego and a promise he couldn't deliver.
He wants allocate $5 billion to build a border wall between the United States and Mexico. He wants the U.S. taxpayer to handle the costs and not his promise of Mexico.
Many hold Trump accountable for the government shutdown. So mainly they fault Republicans once again for putting hundreds of workers out of work.
However, you won't hear that in the right wing media bubble. All you hear is Nancy Pelosi's name in every conversation.
It's time for Republicans to focus on a new line. I mean they already ate attacking Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and she's not even sworn to public office. They constantly remind us day in and day out about how Hillary Clinton rigged an election to help Trump win.
Hold up. Why would Clinton want Trump to win?
So she can embarrass him with scandals like sleeping with Playboy actresses and porn stars.
So he can build a Trump Tower in Moscow and lift sanctions against the Russian Federation behind the back of his predecessor.
So he could advocate an agenda that goes with the loudest voices on talk radio and cable news.
Sure, blame Pelosi for the government shutdown. Blame her for the trillions of debt that the country accumulated since Trump took office. Blame her for the rise in immigrants seeking asylum. Blame for everything you've read on The Drudge Report or seen on Fox News.
The strategy is getting old.
Republicans better get a new playbook.
Cause this Pelosi bashing is getting fucking old.
Government workers need a paycheck so they can pay their rent, feed their families and purchase stuff.
With $5 billion we could fix Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, Florida, Texas and Louisiana. With that much money, we could help miners in West Virginia. We could fix the pipes in Flint, Michigan. We could help people losing their jobs at GM, Sears, Gap and Toys R Us.
Building borders won't stop illegal immigration. It will only inflame violence and alternatives.
But if Trump wants to keep a promise built on the backbones of racism, go at it.
Please keep Pelosi's name out the conversation. She's only going to hold the Speakership for at least one term.
