Hakeem Jeffries: It's Christmas Eve. Get. A. Life.



Hakeem Jeffries ✔ @RepJeffries

It’s Christmas Eve.

Get. A. Life.


Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump

The ONLY reason we were able to get our great USMCA Trade Deal approved was because the Do Nothing Democrats wanted to show that they could approve something productive in light of the fact that all they even think about is impeachment. She knows nothing about the USMCA Deal!

That's how everyone should talk to Trump - dismissively.

Here we are at 3 years and only one out of the three countries has ratified it.

by trying to get us back somewhere near where we started, and lying about where we were/are. So very few of us actually know what was in the original deal that every return to near status quo looks like a Trump economic victory.

Every "win" for him has been like this. Like low unemployment. It's a bit less than a 1% difference than when Obama left office. Unemployment, the stock market, and trade under him are even more smoke and mirrors that ever before. To keep things around Obama era trends he has done things like greatly accelerate debt accumulation and try to juice the economy in a reckless manner (like the tax cuts).

labor and environmental standards pretty much it, and the biggest thing it was missing.

Mitch McConnel is sitting on 358 bills passed by the House. Tell Moscow Mitch to get up and do something about them. And quit blaming Democrats for Republican failures.

"You know I give the best presents. Better than Santa. Like what I gave my children this year. Ivanka, Don, Jr., Eric, and . . . the others." (Rings his personal assistant on the intercom.) "What did I give my kids this year? Go ahead, tell the people. " Whisper, whisper, whisper. "That's right, I gave them all portraits of ME! Best gift giver probably ever. Many people are saying it. So many people."

I can't imagine for the life of me that he's capable of having one even day where it's about giving to others. Joy to the world . To celebrate the birth of a person, whether or not you literally believe it, who's purpose was to preach love of everyone equally, give what you have to the poor, turn the other cheek etc.
I have a feeling Christmas is just a hassle for him. Spending money on someone else is painful, with no guaranteed quid pro quo. And the sooner things get back to "normal" the better.

What a gutter rat. I could never see another President do this. I don't even remember GWB acting like this. And Clinton and Obama, of course, never did.

If that's all that matters, then he should be toast next year. But the Trumpers are going to slime the Democratic nominee (with the confused help of the MSM) so mercilessly, it will still somehow, improbably, be close.
