Muth’s Truths: August 2, 2017

Some of the Worst DC Swamp Monsters are…Republicans!

It’s now clear to even the most casual Republican voter that the enemies of President Donald Trump aren’t just the Democrats, the militant left and the fake news media.  It’s also a number of moderate establishment Republican creatures of the DC Swamp.

The GOP in the Senate has a slim majority, 52-48.  However, while it’s a Republican majority it’s not a conservative majority.  And any three rogue Republicans can wander off the reservation, vote with the D’s, and kill anything the GOP wants to advance.

So under the circumstances, it’s quite possible Republicans in the Senate will, indeed, fail to honor their promises to repeal ObamaCare before the 2018 elections.

But the dynamic could dramatically change AFTER the 2018 elections.

You see, there are 23 Democrat senators – plus two “independents” who vote lockstep with the Democrats – who are up for re-election in 2018, and 8 Republicans.  Only the GOP could possibly be incompetent enough not to significantly increase their majority under an electoral map like that.

But don’t sell ‘em short.  It wouldn’t be the first time.  Remember how the GOP lost seven seats, including five incumbents, in 2008?

P.S.  George Rasley over at ConservativeHQ has a brutal smackdown of Arizona U.S. Sen. Jeff “Never Trump” Flake out today titled, “Jeff Flake: A Book By A Fake Conservative With No Conscience.”

An excerpt…

“Flake has been in Congress, first in the House and now in the Senate, since 2001. He has been part and parcel to everything that is wrong with the Republican Party and why it ‘has never been a truly conservative party’ – the Bush bailouts, the failure to stop Obama’s illegal executive acts, and the failure to use the constitutional powers of Congress to rein-in spending and the growth of government during the Bush and Obama years.  In short Jeff Flake is not and never has stood for the conservative principles he now claims to rally Americans to embrace.”

If there was ever a more apt last name for a politician like this, I don’t know what it is.

WHO FRAMED ROGER STONE?

You remember “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”  Well, welcome to the DC Swamp sequel: “Who Framed Roger Stone?”

Stone is a longtime GOP political strategist and all around provocateur.  He irritates more liberals nationally in a day than I do in Nevada in a year!  And he was also a close associate and adviser to Donald Trump who was instrumental in getting him to run for president, and the subject of a recent Netflix documentary titled, “Get Me Roger Stone!”

If you haven’t watched it yet, do yourself a favor…grab some popcorn and dial it up this weekend.

Anyway, the Left and the Fake News Media (but I repeat myself) are after Roger.  Big time.  Been trying to tie him to this fabricated “Russian collusion” crappola.  He’s been summoned to appear before congressional committees investigating the matter but they refuse to allow him to testify in PUBLIC to clear his name.

And now both he and President Trump have been sued over the fake “scandal” in federal court by some former Obama apparatchiks.  The objective is nothing short of “If we can’t beat Roger Stone will bankrupt him with legal fees.”

Roger is also the author of “The Making of the President 2016: How Donald Trump Orchestrated a Revolution” and will be a keynote speaker next month at the 2017 Conservative Leadership Conference.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS

“Comedian Rosie O’Donnell is slamming the Democratic Party’s congressional campaign chief’s announcement that his party will support pro-life candidates.  O’Donnell tweeted, ‘Women should form our own party’ if the Democrats support pro-life congressional candidates.  Regarding Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) as a potential 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, O’Donnell also tweeted, Not if she supports for the DNC bullsh*t of ending the pro choice platform.’” – Breitbart.com, 8/2/17
