How things have changed. The repubs only idea when Obama was in office was to say no to everything he did. Now that they are in power, they have no valid ideas. At least Obama did accomplish somethings.
Republicans control Congress & its committees. Democrats have no ability to get any proposals to see the light of day, so the media has been focused on the GOP legislative proposals. That doesn’t mean the Democrats don’t have any ideas. Here’s just a couple major ones:
And, how about the irony of Varvel depicting the Democrats as being out of ideas, when it’s his party that controls all branches of government, yet can’t do anything other bicker amongst themselves on the right amount of pain to inflict on working Americans?
The Dems have plenty of ideas, the Reps are in control. The lack of legislation is because of the Republican do-nothings. Sorry if you can’t take the time to look at what the Democratic representatives are doing, I’m sure if I made a list it would be ignored. Is it great yet?
I totally agree with this comic. Yes, Trump is mentally ill. Yes, Mitch is evil. Yes, Paul is a dangerous ideology. However, the Dems need more than “We are not them.” if they want to turn things around in 2018.
Every document that POTUS has signed has been to repeal everything that Obama put into motion. all of Trumps winnings have been to erase whatever Obama has tried to do for our country. Our clean air. our clean fuel. Our Renewable resources. Public Works projects. National forestry and public parks. And the list goes on. Anything that Obama put in motion POTUS is trying to get rid of by any means or ways possible. It’s the way the ancient Egyptians defaced their monuments to remove all memory of leaders they wanted to remove from history. Remove their achievements from memory by defacing their works.

Of course, Trump’s tantrums tend to derail any kind of intelligent, bipartisan dialogue in DC.

Republicans have great ideas! This week Republicans approved an additional 15,000 H-2b visas ADDED TO the cap of 66,000.
70 of those visas were approved for Mar-a-lago.
.
Naturally, ALL of those 81,000 imported workers will undergo extreme vetting AND will return to their home countries the minute their visas expire.

Brainy, I wonder if trump’s will be brought into the White House for service. That way, he has reduced government spending.

Varvel might accomplish more if he focused on the (in)competency of the GOP.

All the Dems have to do is stand back and watch as the Repubs trip over their own shoe laces, again and again.
