I now watch a lot of videos on youtube. The news on the major networks has been nothing but crap for years. And I see lots of vids on firearms use, maintenance, legal issues and all that. And a goodly number of these video producers are screaming bloody murder over what the Congress might pass. One guy suggested that Schumer was getting together a 60 vote majority with a bunch of RINO's and that all was lost. But if I understand the process Senate majority leader McConnell has the power to block any bill he likes from coming to a vote at all. So Schumer could line up 99 votes and it wouldn't mean doodle.

I was a leetle worried that maybe the Repubs would leave the president high and dry but McConnell has supported the president on not letting these funding bills go forward unless they contain the money for border security that President Trump wants. So that is good. Holding the Senate in 2018 was a really big deal for the country.

The Dems will be foundering around for 2 years and get nothing done. Then the House will flip back to Republican control.

If you consider what happened in 2010 where 63 House seats flipped to the Republicans, the Dems pick up of seats in 2018 was tepid. It is especially tepid when you consider that 44 Repubs didn't stand for reelection.

It's looking like President Trump is going to get to fill another seat soon. Justice Ginsburg is becoming a regular no show on the bench.

SGT (Join to see) - Yeah, the benchmark is that the Justices have to attend oral arguments. She is missing those. She needs to go - off the court. Duh.
