    Isn't that hilarious?

    Trump knew in advance what she would say and tweeted a plug.

    Then she rips Ryan a new one.

    A least Trump has one Middle-Eastern women as a friend.

    Apparently he can look past the fact Judge Jeanine is Lebanese.

    If only he treated all women of Middle-Eastern descent with such respect.

    I always saw Jeanine Pirro as a smart and sexy woman and never gave any consideration to her race. What is it with you people?

    That you would have considered her "sexy", would lead me to ask you the very same thing.

    Do you have vision insurance?

    The establishment hack does need to go. I'm sure the voters of Wisconsin's 1st congressional district will remember that.

    Really? Who do you expect to become speaker? Don't you remember? NOBODY wants the job. Boehner stepped down and Ryan didn't want the job, had to be begged to take it.
    The Tea Twits need ritalin.

    You bring up a very interesting point.

    And that said:

    Wouldn't it be delicious if Ryan resigned so we could witness the hilarious family feud in the GOP?

    That would be some must-see TV.

    More hilarious than a Comedy festival.

    Therein lies the rub and Ryan's dilemma!

    He needs to reestablish control over the House and threaten to resign if the extremist alt rightists don't follow the party line.

    Otherwise he is just going to end up like Boehner and be an ineffectual hack who is bullied into submission by the "my way or the highway" no-nothings.

    Exactly!

    When is a "majority" NOT a majority?

    When it is a MINO!

    The minority extremist alt right is holding the GOP hostage and given that they make up less than 10% of the total House membership they need to be ostracised and the House resume dealing with the nation's business on behalf of We the People.

    Ryan has a Boehner problem and if he can't take care of it he may as well resign and let the next act of the circus take over the center ring.

    I think Jeanine Pirro is very attractive, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

    It was Ryan's bill and from what I gathered, the Republicans were working on it for 7 years. I don't think Trump was happy with it, but he wanted it over with so he could work on his tax reform. Now it will be much harder to do.

    Pres. Trump said he will work on a new bill that will satisfy everyone. I think his intent with Ryan's bill, was to allow it to pass to please Ryan (
    and who knows who else), and then start adjusting the bill and making it palatable to everyone.

    No matter, Obama care will fail completely so the Democrats will have to succumb to whatever Trump presents them with... and knowing Trump, he'll toss the whole mess out together with Ryan, and start anew with the best minds in the country.

    I like Trump's policies, and I know he does not owe favors to any corporate interests and is free to do what is best for the American people... such as bringing back jobs, and eliminating regulations that hinder small business' from developing and growing.

    Trump went directly to the American people to the tune of seven rallies a day, so unlike the other candidates, he wasn't dependent on large sums of money from corporate interests to win the election. Whatever he does will be to please the people who voted for him, such as the workers and small business owners. ..which are the backbone of this country.

    I read that Ryan's bill favored the insurance companies... which is understandable when you consider that the insurance and drug companies are the ones that will lose or gain with a new bill. Donald Trump in contrast doesn't owe anyone favors other than the American people, and so he will look at the whole picture and try to do what is best for everyone.

    When the time is ripe, and it will be since Obama care will crash, Trump will get the best minds in the country to work on a new bill which will hopefully please everyone ...except maybe the multinational corporations. But why should he care, he's not a one world/government order freak like the Soros-ites.

    This is SOO much fun.

    Watching you Republicans turn on and eat your own, just the thing for a lazy Sunday.

    I'd almost feel sorry for Ryan, but then again he is the one who thinks one way to solve the Health Care Crisis is let hospitals leave the dying poor at the door, so it couldn't happen to a nicer guy

    But Come ON willya: .NOTHING must dare besmirch the Holy Will of the God-Emperor, His Wisdom is IMPECCABLE, if it fails then WOE BETIDE whoever presented it for he is AT FAULT.

    And that's TRUMP saying this, not his blinded followers

    Really, honestly HOW can ANYONE continue to support such a....a... words fail me, even the ones they would censor here.

    Yeh, yeh, OK he hates Muslims, illegals and poor people, surely that doesn't make up for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING does it?

    Like DeVos, Perry, Price, Pruitt, Flynn,... - a collection of inept and/or corrupt?
    Good luck with your continuing to believe in a liar.

    Can you give us some examples of these regulations that are suffocating all the small businesses? And maybe try to give us some numbers instead of individual horror stories. I realize that type of thing is more anecdotal in actual nature but if it's such widespread problem as you say surely there must be some statistic reflecting it.

    And HOW is Trump going to be bringing back jobs? I've yet to hear anything specific here except his tariff, and the less said about that idea the better in my opinion and most economist's

    Ryan owns it. It was his signature legislation. He should have gotten his act together before trying to dump it on everyone. Best thing Ryan can do now is resign.

    Are you serious?

    Do you think a high profile real estate buffoon turned TV game show host isn't connected to, in bed with, or beholden to dozens of different corporations?

    No one exists in a vacuum.

    Most especially one Donald J. Trump.

    Many Democrats are both racists and segregationists.

    The Democratic Party was started by the most bigoted and genocidal racist in US history, Andrew Jackson, the only President to defy a Supreme Court ruling - and specifically for the purpose of taking land legally owned by Native Americans and killing Native Americans.
    The Democratic Party is the political party of the Confederacy and pro-slavery party.
    The Democratic Party is the party of the KKK
    The Democratic Party is the party of Jim Crow laws
    The Democratic Party is the party of racial segregation.
    Read old laws of white-only locations, those laws are Democratic Party officials' laws.
    Read laws what call for blacks to be beaten, tortured and murdered, those are laws passed by Democrats.
    It is always, to this day, the Democratic Party that demands blacks be treated differently from blacks, conduct polls on educational levels - excluding blacks under the old Democrat Party view that blacks can not be highly educated, and demand that blacks and Latinos always be treated like an inferior minority who need smarter white people to help them.

    So... predictably, when some Democrats including on this forum see Jeanine Pirro they will automatically first evaluate her whether or not she is white. If not white, then will will search to find out what race or ethnicity she is in order to form their opinion about her as they define all people by race and ethnicity. In short, their messages accordingly are the true definition of racism and bigotry. That is continual on the forum.

    The member you quoted? He calls himself in his ID by the first Democratic President, Andrew Jackson, who defying the Supreme Court to steal land owned by the Cherokee and put them on the "Death March Trail of Tears." To see someone and immediately declare "she not white" - and because she is not white then she also is not an American, to instead declare she is Lebanese is 100% predictable. To some people, only white people like themselves can every really be just "Americans" - and nearly always that view is from a white Democrat, not a white Republican.

    You, I, President Trump didn't "look past that she is Lebanese" including because she isn't. She is an American. That member can't see past that she's not white and therefore someone other than an American by his own message. I had no clue id she has ancestors who are Lebanese and I still don't as I generally do not believe anything that comes out of racist messages.

    amazing denial of reality. Meanwhile he surrounds himself with non-payroll special advisor family like his daughter and son in law to avoid nepotism laws, enacted in 1967. an apparently his son just admitted he would be briefing Daddy on the financial health of his empire on "probably" quarterly basis! Special interests? He's his own walking talking special interest, and guess what, there are all kinds of people who own a piece of him.

    Explain how throwing the House into chaos is the "best thing Ryan can do now"?

    Who would take over the leadership?

    How would they pick another speaker that the various factions in the House could unite behind?
