The GOP Congress is worse than a rubber stamp.

Of course, there are four weeks left, but in Biden's first year, the S&P500 grew 50% more than Trump's first year (to date).

Just sayin', #DemsGovernRepsPlunder

You can take out "in this shutdown" and it's still true. It's been the GOP operating model for a decade now. See?

It is past time to adopt the GOP negotiating playbook.

Dems should refuse to cooperate without massive compromises by the GOP. The GOP is the majority, they need to govern on their own - or yield power.

Dems do NOT need to save the country from the GOP's own problems.

Alternately, 5-10 Republicans can join the Dems to pass a Dem bill.

Think the US stock market is on ๐Ÿ”ฅ under Trump?

YTD the S&P500 is up 10.7%. That's pretty good.

But Biden's first year saw a 24.6% gain.

Can Trump double the gain in 3 1/2 months given all the bad economic news?

#DemsGovernRepsPlunder

Least surprising finding ever!

Rich Gain and Poor Lose in Republican Policy Bill, Budget Office Finds

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office found that the richer Americans were, the more they would benefit from the measure carrying President Trumpโ€™s agenda. And the poorest would lose out altogether.

@GottaLaff

I'm surprised it took this long.

This is exactly why Schumer was an idiot for cooperating on the budgets a few months ago.

Of course Republicans are going to sell off government assets to their donor friends. It's why they get get into government.

@grrlscientist

At least this is classic Republican plunder. As always, strip the government assets for donor gains.

Every department head appointed by Trump was approved by the GOP majority of Senators.

Every Federal department slashed is an attack on a Congressionally approved budget that the GOP majority ignores

Every blatantly impeachable act is ignored by the GOP majority sworn to uphold the Constitution.

Yes, you're right. Every elected with an R by their name is the problem. They all knew what the party requires and ran as Republicans anyway
