    Title: “House Democrats have passed nearly 400 bills. Trump…ignoring them.”

    You: “the only way Obama could ignore a bill is if it was passed first by the House and the Senate.”

    Hypocrite much?

    Where was the complaint when Harry Reid was ahead of the Senate and allowed 365 bills to sit on his desk? About 35 of those bills were Democratic sponsored bills.Congress still hasn't passed the new Canada, Mexico trade bill and that could give releaf to a lot of farmers that are already hurting from the Tariffs and low milk prices.

    This and the entire impeachment circus are clear demonstrations of how dysfunctional (not counting regime change perpetual wars) the federal government is.

    No, because you intentionally left off part of the title.

    Also, I am not the OP.

    An irrelevant part of the title was removed, and even a doper stoned out of his mind on any jury could understand that.

    So, one page after I placed in evidence before the jury you thanking the OP, you think you must tell me you are not the OP, well, once again, isn't that SPECIAL!

    Just like the nuclear option. They were a tad upset when the Republicans used their own devises against them.

    Is this really the new metric of how we expect our government to behave?
    Trying to outdo and one up another?
    Win by any means necessary?

    I’m tired of the pissing contest personally

    When the Democrats change the rules to benefit them, do you expect the Republicans to let it go?

    If there is one thing we agree on, this is it. We cannot govern in a constant pissing match but until the system crumbles, it will only progressively get worse.

    A strawman argument is one in which you create a weak version of your opponent's argument. That weak version is easy to knock down (a strawman).

    Do you feel that is what republicans are doing by fighting voter approved initiatives to end gerrymandering or limit power to upcoming administrations? How about even refusing to hear a SCOTUS nominee or putting hundreds of unqualified judges into lifetime appointments simply because they are partisan?

    If the Democrats did it, then I have no issue if the Republicans do it.
    It's nice to have Republicans that play to win.

    Glad it is so boring for you while the country is ripped apart.
    Where do you believe this will end with both teams cheering on your attitude?
    Republicans blame Democrats and Democrats blame Republicans.

    When the Dems stop playing dirty, the GOP will stop as well.
    Not until.

    There is zero evidence of that and republicans “word” mean significantly less than it did 3 years ago.
    Do you have any examples of democrats fighting voter initiatives after they pass to end gerrymandering?
    Refusing to hear a two time elected president’s SCOTUS nominees?

    Tell us why you believe the GOP should let the Democrats play dirty and not similarly respond.

    I don’t believe either side should play dirty (this isn’t a football game btw).
    That you see it only coming from one direction is a larger issue however.

    The old buzzard Pelosi has still not passed Kamala Harris' anti-lynching bill that the Senate passed unanimously in one day and sent to the House three minutes later. That happened months ago. The House could have passed it in less than 10 minutes.

    Let me know when you can demonstrate your criticisms of Democrats doing so.
