Scaramucci ‘I’m Going to Fire Everybody’

And yet republicans in control of anything, can't get **** done, because "they have no way".

What's the Republican "we have no way" combined with the Democrats detailed plans to move the country forward? Not their fault if Republicans are impotent.
Even j-mac on these forums agreed a few days ago that the better bet for Republicans to get something done of note, would be to steal the RINO/Democrat health care plan and pass some form of that....

Chisel on ACA, that looks to be about the best they can do...destroy. They can't create for ****.

You didn't answer anything. I already stated liberal progressives want single payer. You only backed up my statement with your sources. So, once again, I ask, "...And?"

You won't get me singing the praises of Republican leadership. I've posted elsewhere that McConnell and Ryan need to be replaced.

Absurd they have allowed the minority party to control the message.

The majority of people think the left's MSM sucks, so allowing the vile screams of people like Schumer and Pelosi be pasted by their media partners unchecked and unanswered is pathetic. They should be called out along with the media who markets their bile.

I've been around a fairly long time, and it's beyond me that the Senate Minority Leader can publicly claim the President of the United States, and his family, are criminals, and not face severe sanctions.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, so I'm not sure what dropping j-macs handle is supposed to do.

Dems want single payer. Period. Obamacare was doomed from the start on purpose. It was a door opener to single payer.

I favor doing nothing, and letting the Dems health care plan run it's course. Won't effect me in the slightest.

Indeed. Scaramucci is only going to fire the leakers, and if everyone is a leaker, they are going to be replaced with people who won't leak. He also said that he's going to put an end to the White House internal turf wars which appear to be the root cause of the leaks. Good. I hope he does exactly that.

Agreed. The leaks need to stop. 125 leaks the first 126 days is just ridiculous.

I proved they are already trying to do single payer.

You claimed IF they were trying to do it the liberal progressive way, we would be getting single payer.

I'm asking what do you think the liberal progressives are doing, compromising?

Hardly. It's do it our way, or nothing.
 
Scaramoochie knows he needs to hold it down by going full wackjob or else he will be replaced by this guy.

I said, "If we (meaning Congress) were doing it the progressive way we'd be getting single payer." We are obviously not doing it the progressive way with this bill that keeps failing.

Not all Democrats are necessarily progressives. Many are perfectly happy settling with something far short of single payer.

But here you have no confidence in Republicans leadership, and your answer on healthcare is "do nothing". ocean515, in all seriousness, how could we not listen to what Democrats have to say in this situation? They are the only ones apparently that have something to say!

To me, and I'm not being partisan, I'm being critical, Republicans have a messy tent of basically "not liberals". It's filled with everything and the kitchen sink:
1. old guard conservative/traditional
2. religious right
3. rural trump borderline rebels
4. the extremists (racists, anti-immigrant as a #1 priority, NRA/2nd amendment as #1 priority, etc.)
5. tea part/libertarians - dramatically diminish all government

etc.

The issue is of course some of those are in direct opposition to one another sure...but also many of them just make no rational sense. If we were to actual put someone in that best exemplified some for those positions it would either be chaos, or impotent like Trump where they do nothing because they are clueless and their ideas when met with the needs of a nation, are 100% untenable.

How are you gonna elect the leader of the free world on the basis of one fringe issue like opposing gun control...for example. I mean, that's going to move our ****ing nation forward? Jobs? National Security? It's one issue, that's basically extreme already. Immigration? Trump was violently anti-immigrant, and what has he done? No wall...very little change of substance.


Old guard wants tax cuts for the wealthy, I bet they try hard for that right after they try for the spending cuts that slashing healthcare to 20M+people earns them. <-- and you know that's true...is that really worth voting for?

I don't get it sir, not one bit.

Correct. I think you're missing the point. Forget what Republicans want. The only thing Dems want is single payer. They will fight anything else, and so far, they have been remarkably good at it.

The only thing that could pass with Dem support is single payer. Those Dems who think differently don't appear to exist.

Support for single payer wouldn't be growing with the Dems if there weren't opponents to being with. If you think the "only thing Dems want is single payer" then you better tell the 117 Dems in the House.

Scaramucci himself will not be here by this time next year. These jobs are just temps.

You literally believe Canada and Venezuela are in the same situation, don't you?

Displaying Henry George as your avitar, that's close enough for me.

Michael Moore told me what conservative beliefs are. Do you think it was accurate?

The ACA was one gigantic compromise after another.

Justice Democrats.... :doh

Well, when you read HR 676, it's rather obvious why so manyDems don't support the particular bill. Doesn't mean the Dems aren't exclusively focused on forcing it upon the Citizens like they did Obamacare.

How'd that one work out?

Btw, Karl Marx declared Georgism to be "capitalism's last ditch" so get out of here with your 'socialist' talk. :lamo

No, s***. I am well aware of his influence on everyone from anarchists and socialists to moderates to right-libertarians and conservatives. It just goes to show his ideas transcended partisan-labeling. Smart people know a good idea when they see it, no matter their political persuasion.
