Now Trump is begging us to help him.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Counterfeit tough guy. Go get succor from your Deplorables.

[BumRushDaShow]

1. He's got a debt ceiling to handle + FY17 appropriations

both of which can be torpedoed by the RW teabaggers in the House for some payback-is-a-bitch karma, subsequently shutting the government down and causing the U.S. to go into default.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. He's trying to court, errrr, manipulate the Congressional Black Caucus to help him.

I am confident they see right through him:

[BumRushDaShow]

4. He really thinks they are a bunch of fools

But then he successfully made fools out of the heads of the HBCUs so I guess why not?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

6. He will tell you what you want to hear to get you out of the room and then do what he wants.

[BumRushDaShow]

7. Yup.

I think they know better. And even if he were to attempt to negotiate to offer any "sweeteners", the teabaggers won't have it.

8. You also have the Hastert Rule that no bill comes to the floor that doesn't have party majority ...

You also have the Hastert Rule that no bill comes to the floor that doesn't have party majority support. It will be nice to see a GOP civil war though.

[BumRushDaShow]

9. I think we are already seeing

the opening shots of the civil war. The Kochs vs the Mercers.

2. He'll have to sweeten the pot for the teabaggies

by slash and burn of even more programs and bribes for them of course.

Charles Koch will offer to pay for their campaigns and election stealing costs as he did with AHCA

[MoonRiver]

5. Pull Gorsuch and nominate Garland. THEN, and only then, we'll talk. eom

[maxrandb]

12. +1000

[tallahasseedem]

15. +1

Totally agree.

[NewRedDawn]

10. They should help by giving him the biggest

heaviest anchor.

[WinkyDink]

11. He's getting a-skeered of not being able to re-pay his $$ debt to Putin with our National Security.

I mean, afraid for his very life.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. He is something else. He's like the kid your parents told you not to play with.

He is going down. The best course is to stay as far away from him as possible.

[Vinca]

14. Can I get a loud chorus of "fuck you??"

The ship is taking on water. Let it sink.

[Kimchijeon]

16. LOL Too bad so sad

[ReformedGOPer]

17. one word

KARMA

[lpbk2713]

18. If he should get his way ... and this is a huge hypothetical ...

it wouldn't be long before he's back to treating everyone like shit again.

And of course this would assume he would stop treating people shitty.
