It was probably just a troll but I have already seen people on Reddit saying thanks to Schumer and Pelosi for the shutdown for not being willing to talk etc.
Good possibility it's trolls. I've seen some accounts which look suspiciously like bots pushing that same line on Twitter. Outside of the Trumpster cult, though, not many seem to be on board with that "theme". At least not from what I see.

, so it will require the House to impeach him, and the Republican-led Senate to indict him. It will all come down to McConnell, who I'm quite certain will refuse to allow the Senate to vote on the matter.
The Constitution spells out impeachment protocol. It isn't at discretion of the Leader of the Senate.
Chief Justice of Supreme Court presides over the Senate trial.

All political theater to try to shift the blame over onto the democrats for the utter failure to properly track and re-unite the *THOUSANDS* of children inhumanely ripped from their parents at the border under Trump's utterly knee-jerk ignorant Nazi-like shift in border policies.

Some mildly encouraging news:

https://www.npr.org/2019/01/17/685539207/poll-trump-approval-down-slips-with-base

A new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll finds Trump's approval rating down and his disapproval rating up from a month ago. He currently stands at 39 percent approve, 53 disapprove — a 7-point net change from December when his rating was 42 percent approve, 49 percent disapprove.

And the movement has come from within key portions of his base. He is:
  • Down significantly among suburban men, a net-positive approval rating of 51-to-39 percent to a net-negative of 42 percent approve, 48 percent disapprove. That's a net change of down 18 percentage points;
  • Down a net of 13 points among white evangelicals, from 73-to-17 percent approve to 66-to-23 percent approve;
  • Down a net of 10 points among Republicans, from 90-to-7 percent approve to 83-to-10 percent;
  • Down marginally among white men without a college degree, from 56-to-34 percent approve to 50-to-35 percent approve, a net change downward of 7 points.

You know what word is Latin for "the left", don't you? Sinister. :devilish:
Well, the left-right political spectrum comes from the fact that the supporters of the king wanted to sit on his "good", right side because "left" had those negative connotations, right?

So "right-wing" just means "the privileged classes and their henchmen".

Mueller would not be leaking this if it were simply Cohen’s word against Trump’s word, as Cohen is a proven liar, so this suggests that Cohen recorded this particular conversation with Trump, and that Mueller has the tape.
Bolded is a HUGE leap, honestly.

Not saying it can't be true; but between the Palmer Report, and The Hoarse Whisperer starting encyclopedic Twitter threads saying "let me tell you why this latest development is HUGE and IMPORTANT and means that something absolutely tremendous is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER" like all year long last year, I can't get excited anymore. I'm out of excite.
