If you haven’t figured it out yet folks it’s clear now that Trump wanted the shutdown all along.
Repeal and replace the Republicans.
OT: Why does TPM allow these type of ads? Why does the right advertise on this website? Do they really think I am going to click on that? Just curious…
Everyone should click them, so TPM gets a share of the Rumpublican’s money.
The gift that keeps on giving.
To himself
Trump please keep tweeting
Signed The Democratic Party.
Thanks Donnie! Your ability to peel back any thin veneer of caring from the 'pubs is much appreciated!
While reading comments on the internets the Trumpies are all about the Trump and what he has done, or they think he has done, but not a whole lot of what their Republican members of Congress have done.
So I wonder if a strategy would be to ask each and every Republican what does Trump tell you to do.
This could be fun.
As a doctor in rural Louisiana, I have seen how #CHIP helps poor children, but Democrats are playing political games with CHIP over an unrelated immigration debate. Dems care more about illegal immigrants than they do about sick American children. That is unconscionable.
Says GOP congressman, who voted for tax breaks for the extremely wealthy, and corporations, but didn’t renew CHIP when it expired - regardless of how many democrats called for action to renew CHIP. The American people see you, you jerk. Let’s hope your constituents notice.
How long will the shutdown last? During the shutdown will there still be money for Trump to go off to his golf clubs for rest and relaxation?
“Trump Blows Up Republican Plan To Blame Democrats For Blocking CHIP.”
More Intergalactic level Strategery from Lil’ Donnie.
Trump is the crazy gangster who keeps shooting the hostages before the deal for the getaway car has been made - sooner or later his fellow robbers are going to shoot him just to get rid of the annoyance factor.
Dems need to step up and use this type of hypocrisy against every R. While the R’s had control of the House, Senate, and Executive branch of the government ___________(fill in the blank with popularly supported issue) could not be passed or continued as the R’s blame the Democrats.
Yes yes, isn’t it just so inexplicable and magical that when the shining keystone of your entire ideology is that all government is bad, you wind up not knowing how to govern? Color me nonplussed.
Cockholster scuttling Rethugliklan efforts just further reinforces the truth of the Rick Wilsonism “Everything Trump Touches Dies.”
As Martha Stewart might say, “It’s a good thing.”
Let them advertise! It drains their resources and has no effect. I wish all GOP advertising was targeted at changing the minds of TPM readers.
Just imagine the fun Trump will have on Air Force One when the “essential employee” pilot is forced to fly and not get paid…
Those types of ads aren’t likely a conscious decision by TPM. They’re targeted to you based on your location or prior search history, for the most part. It’s possible you’re seeing it if you live in Texas or you’ve visited similar websites.
TPM likely contracts with a company and allows them to create those little ad spaces. The ad spaces are then keyed through algorithms to show you advertisements that the algorithm assumes you would be interested in seeing. They read cookies, browser histories, key to your Google login in you’re using Chrome while logged in…all sorts of ways to rape your private information space for information that allows them to push ads at you in a manner that their studies show provides an increased chance of you opening your wallet. You got an ad for some conservative dillhole because this is a political website you frequent and the algorithm knows you’re interested in politics.
Try it. Go to Best Buy’s website and perform a few searches for 4k televisions (or Google other products) and you’ll start getting ads circling that as a topic.
