I saw an old woman getting cut off again again and again... even by Chuck, and then when speaking she stumbles and Trump lets her stumble, when she starts to make sense he cuts her off with no penalty. Those who gr0ks the finer meta play here is already not voting Trump.. I think Trump played this well to his base.. She should have had names ready of those R's in the house who wont vote for the wall, Mexico still not paying, 10 terrorists really?, how much of the wall is actually built etc. Trumps kryptonite : Facts.
That's not what I saw. I saw her slyly feed him more rope, and quietly step out of the way as he wrapped it around his neck.

I actually got a little annoyed at Chuck for getting into a pissing match a bit with Trump. Maybe they had a good cop bad cop thing going, but I think she played him the hardest.

Nah, Chuck is the one who got him to just come out and own it.

Either way it was a great tag team. They both tweaked him in different ways and it's fun to watch one two one two back and forth.

Donnie gets pummeled meanwhile you had Pence disappearing into the shadows lettin his guy get hung to dry.

Its like you haven't been listening to women say exactly that. Sounds like she was still effective, just biding her time til Turmp shit his pants into saying something incredibly stupid. Then Chuck and her and the other Dems can go and present a unified front. Then they can bring out the glib remarks, or better yet, leave that to the comedians. I don't want a fucking standup routine from my politicians (except for certain places, like if they're on an entertainment show or the correspondents dinner, etc, not in the fucking oval office during a serious meeting).

Turmp could literally say he's going to send death squads for his base and they'd cheer it on so everything he says will play well with his base. Facts don't matter so I don't know why you think it would have made a difference there. The facts were already known. What you're ignoring is that these other people, they'll still have to work in politics beyond Turmp. Letting him diminish politics into his type of antics is not the way to handle things, as it will make it easier for people like him to get into politics in the future, and it will make that level of discourse the norm. That is not the way a government should be operating. Not only that, but you can tell that they realize, shit like this reflects poorly on the government as a whole. Arguing with idiots just makes both sides look bad. And it will help all the assholes that just go "politics/government suck" that are a big part of the reason why things have gotten so shitty there.

Shit no, she shouldn't name the Rubs who are opposed. That's the worst thing she could do as it puts a target on them. Just the uncertainty of who it might be will sow distrust among the Rubs. Make it easy for them to go along (and not have to explain themselves). Then see how things go (like if the vote is overwhelmingly not in favor of the shutdown over the wall, then they'll probably not have to explain themselves at all - the Rub leaders and Turmp would; or if its close, then they can point to issues pertinent to their constituents to save face). Remember there are actually some Rubs that aren't total fucking garbage, so the Dems need to give them a chance to help them out as they'll need them moving forward.
 
Every time you think Trump cannot appear more incompetent or petulant, we end up holding his fucking beer.

So true it hurts. I'd say other than pulling cons, diggin that hole deeper is his only talent.


Orange man-child there throwing his tantrum after bringing in the cameras was pretty gratifiying though. Dumbass thought he could RealityTV the situation and Chuck and Nancy put the boots to him instead, haha. Oh to hear Pence's inner dialogue throughout that meeting.

Mother's right, this guy is a cotton headed ninny muffin. Did he just say he'd be proud to shut down the government? Good heavens, I can see Pelosi's knees! Drat, that's an extra 10 lashes of the belt tonight.
 
I have it! Trump shuts down the govt because Wall. Congress overrides veto. Trump goes nuts, pardons his cronies & resigns in a fit of pique. Pence pardons him Christmas Eve & America rejoices.

Hail Pence the merciful, a true Angel of God!

Pence thought he was going to a private meeting. Trump turned it into a media event at the last moment & he didn't have the script so he faded into the woodwork. Smart move on his part.

He was probably whisking himself into his daydream of getting the 2020 nomination.

I was actually thinking something similar, but not Trump going nuts but using this as a reason to resign and then get pardoned. Using the excuse that he cannot be an effective President without getting the wall built so he will step down. Although that would require him to admin defeat and actual require more intelligence than he can muster!

He's been waiting patiently so far. I'm sure McConnell will tell him when & if the time is right to do Trump the way the Roman Senate did Caesar. Figuratively speaking, of course.
 
I really really wish I could have seen McConnell's and Ryan's faces while they were watching Trump shoot his feet clean off and then commence to face plant himself on the floor over and over again.

Speaking of which, like 5 yr. old delinquents playing with matches in the bedroom closet, those two crooks have been somewhat laying low as of late. That can't be good.
 
Pence was the best part of this thing (besides Chuck and Nancy making occasional glances at each other with a "can you fucking believe this shit?" looks on their faces). Pence though... man, what a complete waste of skin. He's entirely useless. At least Trump has an opinion and is fiery about it. Pence just sits there and thinks "what would Mother think about this?"
You're knocking the next president of the United States!
 
I was watching news and Chris Cuomo said that trump got "NanChucked" in that meeting today in the Oval Office.

I going to assume Trump thought he was making some sort of show of power in front of the media. President Dunning-Kroeger was probably giggling to himself about how he was going to embarrass Chuck 'n' Nancy on national TeeVee, because, obviously, his stunning wit, intelligence, negotiating prowess and sheer force of masculinity, would carry the day. Instead Chuck 'n' Nancy spanked him like a toddler to the point that he just sat there and said, "I WANT A WALL! WAAAAAH!" I was laughing my ass off watching it, then that cold realization hit me once again - this is the fucking president of the country. What an embarrassment

I read something earlier that mentioned the President has been untraditional about how he conducts meeting and starting the meeting in camera isn’t that odd and it’s worked well for the President to show his dominance, remember the two thank you dear leader cabinet meetings, the meeting with the Turtle and Ryan?
The President got lazy having one party rule, he expected to step out and dominate Chuck & Nancy as he has to others.
Problem was Chuck & Nancy we’re not going to put up with that shit.
 
What is hilarious is that Orangemandias thought he would pull a fast one and sandbag Pelosi/Schumer with an open meeting. In turn his intended victims tag-team sandbagged his sorry ass on national television. Word is that he knew the whole mess was a disaster and he flung a folder of intel across a room as he was departing. He was also raging about Pence, who has perfected the art of remaining absolutely still when an apex predator is nearby, sitting there silently offering no support. Even better, after punching a few holes in the S.S. Trump, Chuck and Nancy held a presser outside of the White House where Nancy proceeded to question Hair Furor's manhood.

“It’s like a manhood thing for him. As if manhood could ever be associated with him. This wall thing,” said the California congresswoman.

Putin's Circus Peanut had two politicians run circles around him, got him to own the shutdown and walked away laughing at him.

Pence is the only guy who can’t be fired...

Saw a funny twitter post:

Mike Pence was shutting down to conserve energy
