You misspelt "Matt" and "Gaetz".

"Democrats aren't common Mitch McConnells. They're not going to screw the country just to make the president from an opposing party look bad."

I just hope everybody keeps repeating the "in terms of our work here, it is infinitely better than what was initially proposed by the administration" message to remind everyone of that fact.

Listening to the CBC coverage, with the Democratic majority in the House pushing the changes that were put in the final version being signed down in Mexico, it shows that the US is still capable of working with other countries in a sane and orderly manner (in spite of the toddler at the head of the executive branch trying to shit on everything in sight).

You do understand this is a trilateral trade agreement? We don't get to change it at all unless the other two signatories are on board with the change. So yes, it just may not be that easy to do.

Over the years I have learned to not question Speaker Pelosi on this sort of thing. She knows what she is doing and knows how to get shit done.

She was our Congresscritter for 20 or so years before we moved. She is smart, gets stuff done, is fiercely protective of her district and takes no shit and no prisoners. As her daughter said, "She'll cut off your head and you won't realize you are bleeding"

He doesn't need money. He made his the old-fashioned way - he married it.

Seriously? Writing a bad bill into a good bill is blatant partisan manipulation? Sorry, I'm not buying. In point of fact, the ONLY party with the nation's interests at stake here IS the Democratic Party, And God bless them for having a majority in the House, and a master politician at the helm.

I'm sure that the bill that exits the House will be FAR more palatable to the other signatories than whatever crap Trump sent over.
