Does Chuck Schumer continually hoping that *this time* the GOP will deal in good faith remind anyone else of Charlie Brown talking himself into letting Lucy hold the football again?

Yes, Trump would still demand that you are killed on sight.

Nope. There is no amount of repetition of that one that won't make him sound like an asshole.

I kinda sorta do a meme thing, but it's a meme I'm trying to start myself. So every political post I make or comment on, I put in my hashtag, #ThereIsNoSuchThingAsATaxCut, and I wait for someone, anyone, to ask what I mean. I hope that causes no offense.

The real triumph is that Trump and his cohort's actions have caused the Quebecois to affirm they're Canadian. They *are* a clever bunch.
