You act like that's not how he starts his morning meetings.

I was so confused when I couldn't find posts I made this morning. I just assumed I had forgot to hit submit and after IT restarted my computer remotely I'd have to type it all out again.

You know, I bet that's the real reason Boner quit - there wasn't enough orange coloring for both him and Trump in DC.

Goddamn.

Paul Ryan alone in a car, defeated and listening to Papa Roach. That is the greatest thing I've ever read in my life. I hope Linkin Park is on that mix too.

I hope the left gloating on this disappears quickly. The longer the gloating, the increased likelihood that they decide to target the ACA again.

I understand, and I agree with a perspective I read earlier today that this could actually be manipulated into fodder for the GOP in 18...but, christ, give it 48 hours. Liberals just spent 3 months with "you lost so shut up snowflake." And then those same douchebags crashed in the absolute dumbest, most unspinnable way possible.

Better still, it was the first time ever democrats in office were smart enough to stfu and not give them an out...which is basically a victory all it's own.

I mean...what could be better than Paul Ryan self-immolation while Schumer stays silent for a whole day at a time?

I think if it was more "YES WE'RE KEEPING THE ACA!!!" gloating it wouldnt make me so uncomfortable. Repeatedly pointing out "HAHAHA RYAN AND TRUMP AND THE GOP ARE FAILURES" just seems like something that will make them, going forward, far more resolute.

Large amounts of sociological research and most 80s movies back you up this.
