Then your comment about the Democratic party "dropping like a rock for the last six years" seems to have just been a weird attempt at deflection. In any case, Republicans can't "devote the filibuster." It's called the nuclear option for a reason. Once it's done, it's done.

The Democratic party HAS dropped like a rock for the past six years. Your denial doesn't change that. It's not even up for debate. It is a fact that Republicans have the most control of any party since 1928 and that has probably plateaued.

So are you going with "The Democratic Party is finished" theme or not?

The nepotism and direct conflicts of interest preclude any so-called accomplishments from gaining traction. My dislike for Trump certainly did not spring up from a vacuum. But, the writing was on the wall of the ether long before he ever won his first Primary.

you were whining about Trump consistently due to gay rights. You also started whining about Trump when you reverted back to your extreme anti gun position.

To be fair, a lot of that has been self-inflicted by those very so-called journalists, their editors and their content bias and their editorial bias.

The result is a low point in the electorate's trust in the biased lame stream media as being truthful or unbiased. The electorate, or at least those paying any attention, have indeed seen the biased lame stream media and have recognized it as such.

I noticed that Rush has changed his tune from believing that corporate funded so-called journalists are a symptom of the dysfunction of the system to now he thinks they are one of the prime drivers of the dysfunction. Maybe any day now he will start referring to them as the Corporate Class Propaganda Machine as I long have.

That's one of the most ridiculous over simplifications of my position I have yet to see you make. Bravo.

Given Trump's choice for VP, it was obvious that Hillary had the better position on gay rights. Given that Trump had the support of white nationalists, anti-Semites and people who fear Muslims and Mexicans, the gun zealots are deplorable for putting the concerns over their pea shooters ahead of what is right.

lots of hard core Israeli supporters, Zionists etc supported Trump. Who do you think Benjamin Netanyahu hoped won the election?

Its pretty clear that media left of center.
If you want to connect 'Corporate Class' to the news media, how does leftism, as rendered by the media, do anything that the Corporate Class is in favor of?

From my observation, leftism raises business expenses via a variety of means, be it excessive corporate taxes, corporate regulations, support of unions, and increased demands for high wages such as $15 minimum or others. How are these things what Corporate Class would be in support of?

That they are a Propaganda Machine is a certainty, and beyond question.

Butt hurt? Nope, I enjoy watching trumpbots flush their integrity and credibility down the toilet trying and failing to defend trump.

Some reports indicate that Zionists didn't mind Hitler either. They saw him as an ally who could help them to achieve their ends.

And, as it turned out, they weren't exactly wrong about that.

I never once said it is finished. It has dropped like a rock, giving Republicans the most control of any party since 1928. You can't deny that. They have probably bottomed out but that doesn't mean they will climb out of their hole tomorrow.

Personally I think Turtle could have simplified it further by just saying you were a Trump whiner. Certainly you can't argue with that since you have started hundreds of whining about Trump threads.
