McConnell and the rest of the GOP leadership are trying to save their majorities, and that requires having their incumbents campaigning in their districts, not effing around in DC.

Trump is, yet again, an idiot.

The Senate agreed to go back home and campaign (after confirming GOP judges I believe). Does anyone who drinks his special Kool-aid know this fact? Hell no!

CNN just corrected another lie the moron just told about "CA allowing millions to vote multiple times". CNN said, "That IS a conspiracy theory Mr President". Of course the tin foil hat wearers say CNN is fake news and never bother to check facts.

as if his own supporters won't be the most affected when they retire and don't have enough investments or savings to pay the bills and can't afford health insurance.

Those tax cuts will help the wealthy have more to save and invest while companies do share buybacks to prop up their stock prices. It's not going to help the middle class or working class in any noticeable way.

with that lie. They wouldn't know if Congress is in session or not. They haven't figured out yet that they didn't get anything from his last tax cut, they are still applauding him for it. When they heard this new lie they think more is on the way.

I got a bridge to sell them. He's conning people out of their votes again telling things that are not true. Remember health care for all , at a lot lower costs with better coverage's he promised, then did the opposite and pushed the tax scam bill kicking millions off of health care, robbing them to give billions annually forever to the wealthy giving them billions from it, and now they're saying openly they will gut Medicaid , Medicare, and Social Security to pay for their windfall, and want to give them another even bigger tax windfall , and guess who they'll rob from again to pay for it? Us. Vote all republicans out of office , while we still can. They're criminals.

He's also a lying piece of filth, and he'll lie his way out of hundreds of lies before anyone gets suspicious. He's a brilliant liar. His fanboys LOVE being deceived. They'd carry Trumpy's water while they're lining up for the ovens. He can kill them all with nary a whimper. "Please, Donald, if you kill me in YOUR name, I can die in peace."

Ok...they know he lies almost everytime he opens his pie hole. Go to his circus rallies. Laugh and chant with the rest of your racist, frightened, hateful inbred buddies; but when it comes time to vote, vote for the future of the country and not with your frustration with your life. It's not all about YOU. It's about the USA. Make it a better place. Please don't take us further behind the rest of the world. We can't afford your irresponsible behavior any longer.
