    Their Medicare proposal:

    Hard punches on the face stomach and genitalia.

    Democrats:

    No punching of any part of the body. Necessary surgery and medicine.

    Compromise:

    Soft punching or hard slapping parts of your body. No surgery or meds but optional cuts and bruises.

    The Energy and Commerce Committee’s ranking Democrat, Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.), asked the Capitol Police to avoid making arrests, especially given the subject at hand. “People feel very strongly because they know they’re losing their health care, and [because of] the cruelty that comes from the Republican proposal,” Pallone said.

    How about you stand your ass up and stand in the way of the cops Pallone??

    When are fucking limp dicked ass Democrats going to recognize that these weak words don’t mean shit to authoritarian cops. If they want it to stop, they’re going to have to put themselves at risk, too.

    “Oh, it’s okay to remove them from this room but please consider not making arrests.” What an absolute fucking joke. Stand up and show some balls or sit down and shut the fuck up.

      It’s like when the Republicans control the white house, congress, and the senate, Democrats can’t push any consequences because the republican majority just shoot it down.

      Seriously, every attempt to impeach Trump, or block these things from happening just get thrown out because there is enough Republicans to vote against it. The US checks and balances weren’t designed to consider this amount of corruption would be voted in. In the end, this is what enough who voted for, wanted.
