The Dems don’t like him and are already attacking him. I like that!
But he controls the process... what bills get to the floor and so forth. Very important post.Yes, that helps some, but over in the Senate is a leader of similar power over bills.
does a poor grade mean he supported Ukraine or didn't support Ukraine?
In The Art of the Deal Trump wrote: “To me, committees are what insecure people create in order to put off naming hard decisions.” I guess Trump himself was an insecure person while POTUS, right?Trump is an outstanding businessman and is not afraid of making the hard business decisions on his own. If he lacks expertise in an area, he consults with the experts in that field to get enough data to make the decision.
Yes. I’m telling you, the Covid “payments,” PPP loans, and the Employee Retention Credit payments are all scams that weren’t necessary other than to buy votes.
I’m a CPA. The incentive payments went to people whether or not they were affected by Covid shutdowns. My daughter bought a couch with her $1,400.
The PPP loan program was a cluster fuck of epic proportions. I had to tell clients who didn’t need a free forgivable loan that it would be malpractice for me NOT to recommend they they claim the PPP if they met the easy-to-meet requirements. Businesses with $25MM of revenue were getting $2MM in forgiven loans - literally free money. Congressmen and nonprofits were claiming this “benefit.” It was abused beyond recognition. We’re there done businesses like restaurants that needed it to survive? Of course. But most went to businesses who had zero risk of failing without it.
Then comes the ERC - you know, the payroll tax credit that Clay and Buck and every other radio broadcaster is pitching, and which has been so abused they the IRS has shut down ERC claims. There are requirements that need to be met, but with no regulatory guidance issued for over a year after the programs started, companies were being told they could claim the ERC if they had to put up plexiglass dividers between their employees and customers. Totally abused.
Regarding the Speaker clusterfuck, do you know how close we were to getting Soros-funded Emmers? If it went to a floor vote, and Jeffries told 15-20 democrats to just vote “present,” we would have had Speaker Emmers without having 217 Republicans support him. This is a dangerous game and needs to end now.
It wouldn’t matter if President atrump cured cancer, solved world hunger and ended all wars, he would find something idiotic to blame him for and spout off like a wounded magpie with a crack habit.
He is like mikey junior on the subject of President Trump.
There will also be people voting in 2024 that are apparently too old to remember 9/11.
It's no secret I despise McCarthy. He's the protégé of another fuckin' loser, Paul Ryan.
I'm sick and tired of the party of gracious losers.
Back to the speakership. I think it's time for congress to stop picking the speaker from members of congress. Go out and find a real leader, someone who will get the job done and not play the games of politics. Someone who is not consumed by lobbyist, and is not consumed with fundraising for their party.
I believe most of that was due to COVID. Was he supposed to veto all of that?
I guess you would have been quite happy allowing McCarthy to continue going along with whatever the Democrats wanted.
Not to worry, we'll probably end up with McCarthy again.

Nice God Complex. He’d probably fire Jesus if He told Trump something he didn’t want to hear.
I'm starting to feel that it wouldn't make any difference. This whole affair is giving the whole party a black eye and a lot of voters will refuse to vote R in the next election because of it.
