1. Now, THIS is more like it.

It's a much better outcome than I had any hope for.

2. Trump, the Caver-in-Chief will sign the budget when it's delivered to him

The Folder-in-Chief will sign the budget bill in secret without any press in attendance. Stupid Spice will deflect all questions and the next day, the Loser-in-Chief will tout the budget as the best, most beautiful budget ever seen.

3. El piggo said the "C word" just last week

Today he's asking "Why are you voting Republican?"

4. We are winning

The other day a thread was posted asking if our Democratic senators and representatives were "saying" the right things. I responded by arguing that what they do is just as if not more important than anything they can say. And this is what they have accomplished, quietly behind closed doors.

They have trumped Trump. For the time being, they have fended off the worst proposals of this administration, and that means that, for the time being, we're winning.

8. So much for not fighting back!

9. I agree.

Schuler is well up for the task and Pelosi is smartly keep her people together and letting the Moderate Repubs carry our water against the Teabagging poo flinders. Part of any decision is to do nothing and she has done that very well.

6. YAY!!!!

10. Well-played, Nancy! Way to use your leverage!

She earned that victory lap. Thanks to all the Dems for sticking together and their assistants for doing the legwork.

[Chemisse]

11. Oh yeah, baby!

And Trump probably still doesn't even realize he's been taken!
