"Ok Reg. You have no party. And yet you use all the liberal talking points the liberals have been using for the past few months."

Yes, I have no party...this is true. I was utterly disgusted by how the Democrats handled the 2016 presidential election. It was inept, stupid, and corrupt. So, yes, I am not on the team. The two parties are basically just different kinds of useless right now. It's pretty damn horrendous if you ask me. I am not getting ANY talking points from anybody. I am stating facts and telling you how I see things.

The thing you have to consider about the government right now is it is, since Trump was elected, a one party government. End of story. The Democrats have disappeared...completely. They lost every branch of government...they have zero say in anything and they can't accomplish a thing. They literally ceased to exist once Trump was elected. The Republicans run the country in every way.

So, they do not have to concede anything to the Democrats. Nothing. They can put whomever they want on the Supreme Court. They can deregulate everything they want. They can pass tax plan after tax plan that skyrockets the nations debt and stuffs money into the pockets of the super wealthy while leaving the middle class with all the bills. And they are doing it. The Democrats have no way to stop them and they know it.

So, at the moment and since Trump set foot in the White House, Marc, it's been game over for the Democrats. They are done, cooked, toast, absolutely irrelevant.

Here's the funny thing though, the majority of the population of this country leans left and liberal. So, most of the country does not agree with what Trump and the Republicans are doing...and their voices are silenced. Most of the country, including Republican appointed judges, the American Bar Association, believe it would be a disaster to put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court...but today the Republicans will likely put him on there.

Why?

Is it because he is a great judge or a great person, or incredibly qualified, or because putting him on there would be good for the country? No, because none of those things are true. They will put him on the Supreme Court today BECAUSE THEY CAN...and because he openly stated for the world to hear that his rulings will be completely partisan.

In other words, it will be a message to that party once known as the Democrats that "We are completely crushing you and we will not lift our boot from your throat until you stop breathing."

The thing is they are saying that as well to the majority of people that live in this country and that do not agree with them. So much for democracy...hell, who liked that anyway?

So, pop the champagne, man, because all your dreams are coming true. Democrats have no say in anything and you can laugh as they and every left leaning person in this country can only stare in horror.

I've never seen anything like this in my lifetime and honestly, Marc, it is heartbreaking to see this happen to this country. I feel horrible for the people that will suffer today and going forward due to putting this guy on the court. I feel particularly horrible for women today due to the message this sends to them.

Really though, putting Kavanaugh on the court is all about sending a message and that message is "It does not matter what anybody thinks we will do whatever we want." and that is about ripping this country apart.

"My problem with the allegation against Ellison (and it is only an allegation at this point) should be taken just as seriously by the left since they are assuming the high ground with regard to Kavanaugh and yet say nothing with regard to Ellison."

That's an utterly laughable statement. The Democrats eat their own on this stuff. The Democrats ran Al Franken out of town. Trump laughed at that and said Franken gave up too easy. He thinks Franken is a joke because he left. Trump thinks you should sexually abuse women then flip them off after you do. Ellison was accused of "narcissist abuse" did you know that? Do you know what that is? I actually did not when I heard about it and had to look it up.

"And yet he gets a pass from the left."

I have never seen him get a pass. In fact the Democrats wanted to go after him for it. They asked the woman that accused him for evidence...she did not have any. Otherwise, pretty certain they would have run him out of town too same as they did with Franken.

"Or better yet, why did Hillary and the left just throw out the allegations by Juanita Broderick, Paula Jones, Jennifer Flowers etc. against her husband?"

Well, Hillary is just a piece of crap basically but the "left" is making the Clintons answer for this stuff and they should. So...ahh...again you seem a bit lost. If you are talking about the DNC clowns well, the Clintons bought them so that's the answer there.

"Russia russia russia. When is that going to come to a conclusion?"

Seems like there are a lot more guilty pleas and verdicts to come so I'd say no time soon.

"Mueller has been looking for anything at all and after 2+ years so far seems to have zero."

Yes, Manafort guilty, Cohen guilty and testifies Trump directed him to commit felonies, George Papadopoulos guilty, Rick Gates guilty, Michael Flynn guilty, Richard Pinedo guilty, Alex van der Zwaan guilty, Sam Patten guilty, Konstantin Kilimnik indicted, 12 Russian GRU officers indicted, 13 Russian nationals indicted, 3 Russian companies charged with a variety of crimes...that's just for starters...that's what you call zero? Seriously you were joking right?

Let's see Benghazi investigation...ZERO. The false claims that Hillary Clinton somehow had something to do with the sale of a Canadian uranium company to Russia...ZERO. Give me a break, Marc.
