Boehner Resigns...

The Stinker Speaker of the HOuse John Boehner resigned. That's one tool down the shitter. If we can get Bitch mcConnell to resign that'll be a two-fer. And they should take their buddy, the 'Historic First Black President' with them.
Hell, you would think the democrats would be trying to get McConnell and Boehner reelected. they gave Obama everything he wanted.

Aside from his bullshit leadership I could never respect a man who repeatedly cried like that or turned himself orange in a tanniing booth. He was a fucking joke and I have no idea why the House ever elected him speaker.

They will replace him with another tool. The gop is the fake opposition to the fake dems. Its about as real as pro wrestling with the outcome already determined.
We need a real opposition party or for an outsider to take over one of the existing ones. Like... oh I dunno, maybe trump? Even sanders would be a great improvement over the current lying chump we have now. Trump may make some mistakes but they will be mistakes, not deliberate sabotage of our country like the d+r party is doing. He will probably do a lot right if he doesn't get torpedoed before the election.

Trump seems to be just as naive as Obama when it comes to expecting his agenda to be implemented. His administration would just be 4 years of smart people saying "actually you can't really do that."

Really? I find it rather endearing. At the very least, at least it demonstrates he's somewhat human, as opposed to Cruz, whom I believe is an evil robot sent from the future to murder us all.

It will take an act of congress to get SP'r and they are far too busy trying to pass anti-abortion bills.

No. We're further away from it. Half the country thinks healthcare is "solved" and the other half just wants to undo that "solution."

Healthcare is more fucked up now than it's ever been, and that's by design, Obama even said his plan was to bring us closer to single payer, the plan is to fuck it up so badly, people get fed up and say "fuck it, let's just do single payer" it's actually a quite brilliant strategy...

If Obama had all that power and foresight, why not just implement a single payer system in the first place?
Hint: Because his corporate backers and Congress killed the single payer option.

Uhm, so how come I've not heard this from a foreign based news site like AlJazeera of the BBC? And surely some of the US news site would have picked this up by now.

Denver, Los Angeles and San Francisco are under democratic control. They don seem to be doing so awfully. And I would like to point out that Detroit caved inwards because of the collapse of the US auto industry.

Obumble bailed out gm, lost lots of taxpayer money on them and what did they do? They moved most operations offshore. When trump gets in he will have to clean up a lot of mess.

and toyota has opened plants here, what's that say, and in right to work states so the unions couldn't destroy them like they did GM...

there was no "collapse" of the us auto industry, they were unable to compete with foreign auto makers that were making a superior product because the unions wouldn't let them cut costs...
