Exactimundo.

And let's not forget that the GOP remains a 'do nothing' party except for giving tax breaks for those who needs it the least. In the last 18 months, what has the GOP monopoly of the government actually accomplished, other than inciting religious and cultural wars?

...to the extent that you want to parse between "no" and "resist", sure.

The "resist" movement exists outside the halls of Congress in that the Democrats have been dealt out of all meaningful deliberations in Congress, particularly in the House with the GOP's silly "Hastert Rule." The current immigration clusterfuck now belongs lock, stock and barrel to the GOP and Trump, a fact that was proven again today with the House immigration vote.

Fewer Republicans voted for the second immigration bill. Trump's losing party support.

Big fuckin' deal. Some of the most evil motherfuckers in the history of the planet have been the most socially gracious. There's no notable shortage of the socially gracious in the criminal enterprise known as the Trump administration. Hitler and Mussolini were socially gracious...as was Ted Bundy. It was a rare college coed that Ted couldn't finesse out of her panty hose . And he didn't even have the benefit of being a billionaire, like some sexual predators we know.

It "belongs" to them, but they didn't create it. Its been a house of cards for years. To the extent that the Repubs can't get together and agree on much of anything is nothing new.

But the blame game is what excites and motivates you these days. Doesn't matter to you that the exact same crap has been going on at the border for years. What matters to you is who you can attach blame to.

Have fun with that.

Who are you referring to? If Trump, I though the Dems talking points on net worth is that Trump isn't really a billionaire.
