You mean people stop going to work when you stop paying them? How could we have anticipated it?
What kind of sorcery is this?!?!

You seem uncomfortable with free expression PaceAdvantage by making this threat.
I never accused you or your site of not being a free exchange of ideas, exactly the opposite.
I applaud you for being that and apologize if it came across otherwise.
Maybe I hit a sensitive spot and if so I'm sorry. Social media itself, even when it comes to the horses is probably responsible for most of my missteps.

Air travel is too vital a situation to come tumbling down across the nation....This was a well timed, well played hand by the DS...Expect a counter to be boomed back during and after SOTU, which might have some empty seats.

That’s a shame too. The Airlines and the FAA are way too powerful today. The FAA is a damn joke.

He went up to the plate without a bat in his hands - what did you expect?

Fun times.
INSURANCE PLAN in action. Maybe that should be my new sig.

And yet CNN had this headline when Barack was prez:
Obama's spectacular failure of leadership on Syria

Nah...
There's no appetite for this again. He will continue to threaten the SoE but if it was a real option he would have just done it today.
Wall fight is over for all practical purposes. Some money for barriers will be worked in to whatever Mitch, Chuck, and Nancy come up with in a broader package both sides can sell to their caucuses.
This will be harder for Nancy as House Dems are a bit all over the map on immigration. I'm sure some Republicans would be happy not talking about immigration for a year or five though too.
They aren't going to the mat again though for this President. Trump's power and leverage is basically in ruins.
Would be a win for everybody if this damages the imperial presidency. I'm not optimistic.

A moment of insanity when it becomes crystal clear to everybody but the guy thinking he is astute in his blessings of knowledge.

I love how CNN is now reporting on its home page:
Trump tries to rebound after a horrible day
with the subheading:
History may reveal Friday as a turning point in Trump's presidency, with multiple strands of his political life converging to damage his authority
How many ****ing turning points is the media going to create for Trump?
Turning point from what exactly? The constant bashing, jokes, and disrespect he gets at every turn? lulz
