Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation
Bit by bit the jig-saw pieces are fitting together and more dots appear to be able to be joined up...as to just what I suspected of happening all along, during the U.S Election in 2016!!!
Was Lynch coordinating with Comey in the Clinton investigation? Quote:

They’ll lose that bill.
Still the Democrats probably lost their nerve, the minority leader was under pressure from Democrats defending their seats in Red states this November, and this at least gives them an out. |

The amusing thing is that the Republicans only need 51 votes in the Senate to pass a Budget Bill, but never put one together, continuing to rely on CRs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconc...tates_Congress) Quote:

I thought the 'no filibuster' rule could only be used once a year and McConnell blew it on the health care vote?

GOP actually used the no filibuster on Supreme Court Justice Nominee, Neil Gorsuch, when Democrats filibustered during his confirmation in the Senate, he was confirmed by simple majority. 52/48. It’s interesting to note that the filibuster rule is not in the Constitution. It was a rule created in the Senate in 1806, but strangely wasn’t used until the late 1830s, it was strengthened more in the 1970s. So when there is talk of going ‘Nuclear’, which is precisely what President Trump suggested should happen if the Stalemate and government shutdown had continued, is in essence to go Constitutional, by means of winning a vote by simple majority, or i.e 51. Personally, I think it’s a stupid rule, it’s unconstitutional and I’m surprised it’s been allowed to pass as a legal qualifier when it comes to passing or rejecting legislation. |

Never mind, found it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconc...ates_Congress) So not the same thing I thought of it as but it does allow them to avoid a lot of this hassle so long as they make it a spending/budget thing and can only do so once a year. |

When people say there should be a simple majority vote, they are only looking short-term; what happens when the other party gets in with a majority? (as is looking likely for the Dems in the 2018 mid-terms). This is why Mitch McConnell is against it - he can see it might be a short-term gain to get Republican bills through for a year, but it could come back to bite the Republicans in the bum in November... |
Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation
Another brilliant Trump idea, slap a tariff on imported washing machines and solar panels ! It's going the make the US great again !
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-42784380 It's certainly not going to go down well with anyone in the US needing a washing machine in the near future... Go Donald, hit the electorate in the pocket and spark off some revenge tariffs for US exports ! Wonder if Trump/ and or friends/family have shares in Whirlpool ? Up 2.5%.... |
