Trump is gaining in base popularity

2018-09-26 18:07:30 UTC  

and congress is losing

2018-09-26 18:07:30 UTC  

@Dan V I don't think the committee vote is binding but if that vote fails it'll be a good excuse for more wobbly Rs to cuck out

2018-09-26 18:07:32 UTC  

stupid move

2018-09-26 18:08:07 UTC  

@Atkins Republicans should vote. If the Deomcrats abstain, fuck em

2018-09-26 18:08:20 UTC  

Republicans have no stones

2018-09-26 18:08:43 UTC  

they won't abstain. they want to block it altogether by flipping R votes.

2018-09-26 18:08:45 UTC  

Not moving through with a vote will damage them

2018-09-26 18:09:03 UTC  

Man I'm glad McCain is dead.

2018-09-26 18:09:23 UTC  

Flake is a) dead broke and b) not running again. he is rumored to have secured a job at CNN.

It's become a circus. Just call a vote. Not doing so will help the Democrats because your base will hate you

2018-09-26 18:09:55 UTC  

Yup

2018-09-26 18:10:13 UTC  

It all hinges on Flake.

2018-09-26 18:10:33 UTC  

Flake is the key to all of this
We've never had a character this soy before

2018-09-26 18:10:41 UTC  

All these delays and this extra hearing is just because Flake said he'd vote no without it.

2018-09-26 18:11:00 UTC  

And I think he's going to vote no anyway.

2018-09-26 18:11:04 UTC  

He will vote no anyways.

2018-09-26 18:12:13 UTC  

Can CNN get in trouble for influencing the vote?

2018-09-26 18:12:29 UTC  

If it hinges on them giving him a job?

2018-09-26 18:13:14 UTC  

If the rumor is true there's no way to prove that it influenced his vote.

2018-09-26 18:15:47 UTC  

You know, the nice thing about Canadian politics is that generally-speaking you can meet the people you'll vote for, and speak with them for at least a couple minutes (if you try).

2018-09-26 18:16:07 UTC  

also we dont have this dramawhore shit outside of like... Justin

2018-09-26 18:16:09 UTC  

including the top federal politicians

2018-09-26 18:16:17 UTC  

yeah

2018-09-26 18:16:24 UTC  

I mean, I've met and spoken with Steven Harper

2018-09-26 18:16:24 UTC  

Mad Max, baby

2018-09-26 18:16:34 UTC  

It was very reasonable.

2018-09-26 18:16:47 UTC  

he seems like an okay dude to chat with

2018-09-26 18:16:58 UTC  

I think maybe he didn't talk enough

2018-09-26 18:17:10 UTC  

but he sang the beatles

2018-09-26 18:17:13 UTC  

Because I always felt that I agreed largely with his answers to questions.

2018-09-26 18:17:27 UTC  

also tbh he had a lengthy run

2018-09-26 18:17:29 UTC  

Did you guys see that vee vid about the uk police ?

2018-09-26 18:17:32 UTC  

(or didn't know enough to disagree, in some cases.)

2018-09-26 18:17:41 UTC  

people were just tired of the scandals and interverntionism

2018-09-26 18:17:46 UTC  

I know it's not a 'good look'

2018-09-26 18:17:54 UTC  

no I barely watch vee

2018-09-26 18:17:54 UTC  

but honestly, he wasn't particularly scandalous or interventionist

2018-09-26 18:18:05 UTC  

though I guess there's always room for improvement

2018-09-26 18:18:17 UTC  

Hoping Maxime Bernier gathers some steam
