Well, too bad for the primitives.
Elections have consequences.
Just as you guys were saying four years, and eight years, ago, we won; get used to it.

Senate GOP Bypasses Dem Boycott of Mnuchin, Price By Suspending Rules
Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday morning suspended the rules and voted to approve President Donald Trump's nominees to lead the Treasury Department and the Department of Health and Human Services even though Democrats on the committee were not present.
Democrats on the committee refused to vote on Steve Mnuchin and Rep. Tom Price (R-GA) until both nominees answered additional questions.

1. And yet another precedent set. There is no way the Republicans will regret this one day.
Endlessly blocking a Supreme Court nominee? What could go wrong?
Refusing to release tax-returns? What could go wrong?
Mixing business and Presidency? What could go wrong?
Bending the rules to ram through nominees? What could go wrong?
<<<thinks the primitive forgot to insert a "not" in his second sentence.
This by the way is the weird primitive, the one recently featured in the vault.

You know, when they won, they weren't nice to us; never even dripped a drop of the milk of human kindness.
I dunno why the primitives think we're obligated to be nice to them now.

They consider themselves preordained rulers.

1.) Bending the rules to ram through nominees? What could go wrong?
1.) Unlike Harry Reid, I think Rs did think before opening Pandora's box a little farther.
2.) Maybe the Ds should have thought again before using this tactic against G. W. Bush and G. H. W. Bush.
3.) Red :yawn: herring. Want that to be required, pass the law. Until then this is just a thinly smoke-screened red-herring fishing expedition.
4.) Unproven charge accusation. No previous President with outside businesses and investments ever shut them down. Other than Progs' hysterical Trump-Hate, why should he be different?
