Trump is the greatest lame-duck president ever. He will have the honor of being the punchline for jokes for the next 50 years or more.

The Democrats are not interested in helping, doing anything constructive or otherwise.
The reality that their party is on a sinking ship just is slowly becoming their reality, and the confusion on deck realizing all of the lifeboats are almost gone.
it's actually poetic because they made their own bed
I think a little differently, IF Rump would agree to a more progressive agenda, I think the D's should work with him.
Thus far he has not, he pays homage to the Republicans who need to payback their corporate masters by stripping environmental and corporate limits.
They learned nothing in 2010, nor 2014 and they certainly have shown disdain for learning in 2017.
But this is good; I like the fact that they have gone full hypocrite and engaged in the effort to destroy the credibility of the Presidency.
When it comes to setting new low standards in politics, the Party of the Jackass has no peer.
Yep; the party that whined about obstructionism the last eight years now embraces. The party that demanded Trump accept the election results, now claim they do not have to accept them.
You cannot fabricate the level of stupidity and dishonesty the Party of the Jackass is willing to stoop to.
I applaud this strategy
you don't get it huh assbite racist fuck
your party is about to be caught working with the Russian dictator to steal elections from the people
it the republican party that is bleeding out
that right wing Russian radio you listen to has provided you the heroin that is keeping you from seeing the deaththrows you are in.
the racist sociopathic party cant survive Nixon ,Bush 42 and trumpy.
ronny rayguns is the last republican America liked
and that is because you fucks lie about what he did
lie down and enjoy that heroin until you stop breathing
its about all you can do
detachment from this nuttiness has it's advantagesCan't say that I blame you.
No different than republicans' strategy in dealing with dims.
Since Gary Johnson got no real traction after the dims and repubs put up the two worst possible candidates in my lifetime (and dims let the Clinton Machine nominate the worst of the two) I'm about ready to give up on being a libertarian and just be an apothetic anarchist who no longer bothers to vote.

Liberal voters push Democrats to a new nuclear age
Washington (CNN)Spurned on health care by hard-line Republicans, President Donald Trump's White House is now looking for Democratic assistance to confirm Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, advance a massive new infrastructure investment and fund the government.
The Democratic base doesn't want any part of it.
Washington (CNN)Spurned on health care by hard-line Republicans, President Donald Trump's White House is now looking for Democratic assistance to confirm Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, advance a massive new infrastructure investment and fund the government.
The Democratic base doesn't want any part of it.
Instead, progressives are continuing to demand total opposition to Trump.
With the confirmation fight over Gorsuch and a deadline to fund the government both looming, Democratic lawmakers are under intense pressure not to give an inch, even if that means forcing what could be a losing battle over the filibuster in the Senate.
---
But liberal groups aren't concerned about losing that potential leverage for future confirmation fights.
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee sent a letter to members in Vermont this week criticizing Sen. Patrick Leahy over what the group called "squishy comments" about confirming Gorsuch. He'd said he is "not inclined to filibuster" Gorsuch.
It's not just Gorsuch. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus on Monday sent a letter to House budget-writers urging them to reject Trump's request for border wall funding as a deadline to fund the government and avert a shutdown draws closer -- signaling that any effort to implement a key Trump campaign promise could trigger another major battle.
"Across issues, the Republican agenda represents handouts to giant corporations and the rich while a populist progressive agenda fights for the little guy," said Progressive caucus co-founder Adam Green. Those are two completely opposite directions, and Trump has broken his campaign promises by running full-steam toward corporate welfare over and over again."
I applaud this strategy
That might be...in which case you make a valid point. However I, like many moderate and mainstream Republicans, are fed up with the far right and the outsize influence they have on this nation that keeps us from moving forward. If Trump and the moderate GOP members of Congress cooperating with moderate Democrats neuters those nitwits on the far right then it is a win/win situation for our nation.Trump's 'outreach' to democrats was nothing more than a bargaining chip he wants to use to make republicans toe the line.
Now he's stuck between republicans who no longer fear him or his base, and a Democratic Party that hates him.
That's dumb. That's just really dumb. If getting things done means moving towards the center and marginalizing the far right who have been a lead anchor around this nations neck for far to long then I'm all for Democrats working with the President and moderate Republicans where they can find common ground. I'm not about to change one lead anchor for another.
I am amused by the Liberal concept of what the Center is. In Liberal loony land, and Fake media land, it means moving towards their agenda.
It also never occurs to left leaning lemmings, that it is the far left that is the threat, not the far right. Of course, in liberal loony land, believing in the original intent of the Constitution is far right thinking.

Busy little cunt this morning, aren't we, bitch? 23 groans? That must be some kind of new record for you.
Pull that dick out of your ass, and the groans will probably decrease.

Holy fuck, so they won't even work with Trump on an infrastructure package. Talk about cutting your nose off to spite your face!!There is no reason for democrats to help Trump, let him sink or swim on his own!
