What Is Paul Ryan Waiting For?

[g5000]

Imagine you are the Speaker of the House. The second most powerful elected official in the Universe.

Imagine you have a laundry list of legislation you have been dying to get enacted. Things like this: http://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Tax-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Poverty-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-NSTF-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Economy-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Constitution-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-HealthCare-PolicyPaper.pdf


Imagine one day you wake up, and your party now controls the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court. Your party rules the roost in 35 governor mansions. You party rules from sea to shining sea.

And imagine the big, beautiful, terrific, wonderful, best cherry on top of the whole thing is that the American people have elected a game show host as President. A fucking clueless, twittering, nincompoop and his kids are running the Executive branch.

His kids!

Could you imagine that? I mean, talk about sitting in the catbird seat! Holy shit! Wouldn't that be awesome?


Now, if all this came to pass, what is to stop the second most powerful man from getting every political wet dream he has ever had fulfilled?


The only thing I can imagine that could possibly stop the second most powerful man in the universe in that kind of situation was if he got struck stupid and paused to wait for the most powerful man in the universe to take the lead.


And, ladies and gentlemen, that is EXACTLY what Paul Ryan is doing. Amazingly, he is waiting for the game show host to demonstrate leadership. To take the reins.

Fuck that, man!

Ryan should be ramming his To Do List through Congress, and then he and the most spineless Senate Majority Leader in history should walk that legislation over to the White House and have the morbidly obese naked emperor sign where they have conveniently placed some yellow sticky arrows for him.

Seriously.

What the hell is Ryan waiting for?

 

[miketx]

He's waiting for whoever controls him to tell him what to do like all good little bots.

 

[g5000]

This is a golden opportunity, and Paul Ryan is letting it all slip through his fingers.

The entire country is mesmerized by the antics of a five year old mentality. It's like everyone is paralyzed by the daily train wreck at 1600.

Ryan needs to snap out of it and get moving.

"Just sign here, sir, to make America great again. Then we have a press conference where you can gloat."

There are more than 200 bills sitting in the Senate, the house has been doing its work.

They're working on it, unfortunately it most likely will get zero commiecrat support, so a budget will have to be passed so they can use reconciliation and 50 votes to pass it.

How can he possibly sell to the middle class the noitons that they should not deduct state and local taxes and possibly give up mortage interest when the potus was all good with cutting all the Obamacare taxes, then called the bill mean, only to see the Senate abandon the Turtle's call to just pass something to get to conference where they'd save the taxes Medicaid funding but block grant it BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T TRUST RYAN?

The Gop deserves everything its going to receive.

LOLOUD!

I think when the Senate returns (next week, is it?) they will have come to the same conclusion you have. Certainly, waiting for the Pres to make nice with them is not going to happen. So they might as well do their thing.

 

[The Great Goose]

I have a poor grasp of politics

 

[Seawytch]

Desire and opportunity are there so what does that leave? The ability to govern seems to be lacking.

Yeah. I was mistaken in my belief that Ryan has the ability to lead. It has been quite a letdown for me.

The man is wasting the biggest golden opportunity ever.

I've always known McConnell was a gutless weasel, but I never expected spinelessness from Ryan.

Not to argue. I thought the current plan limited it in some way ... and it should be limited to just one mortagage and the size of the damn thing. But I'm not sure what Ryan's current status is on it. His plan also eliminates the "death tax." I really don't see the point since so few pay it, but his thinking also seems to be to eliminate charitable giving deductions, at least in the first link. That would pretty much devastate giving to top tier universities that goes to scholarships for deserving middle class kids. I just don't see any reason the uber rich shouldn't just keep not paying high level income and death taxes for choosing to give to the charity of their choice. By elimianteing the death tax and chaitable giving it seems to me he's just pushing the tax burden downwards, which is current gop groupthink.

BUT even assuming the man has good intentions (which I absolutely do not assume), any tax code change is going to "gore" someone, and it requires the potus to lead it. Trump will criticize the plan, and then criticize the people who proposed it for not passing it.

We're fucked and the gop deserves everything it has coming .... and that may be single payer and 7 income tax levels.

The only thing I can imagine that could possibly stop the second most powerful man in the universe in that kind of situation was if he got struck stupid and paused to wait for the most powerful man in the universe to take the lead.


And, ladies and gentlemen, that is EXACTLY what Paul Ryan is doing. Amazingly, he is waiting for the game show host to demonstrate leadership. To take the reins.

Fuck that, man!

Ryan should be ramming his To Do List through Congress, and then he and the most spineless Senate Majority Leader in history should walk that legislation over to the White House and have the morbidly obese naked emperor sign where they have conveniently placed some yellow sticky arrows for him.

Seriously.

What the hell is Ryan waiting for?

How can he possibly sell to the middle class the noitons that they should not deduct state and local taxes and possibly give up mortage interest when the potus was all good with cutting all the Obamacare taxes, then called the bill mean, only to see the Senate abandon the Turtle's call to just pass something to get to conference where they'd save the taxes Medicaid funding but block grant it BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T TRUST RYAN?

The Gop deserves everything its going to receive.

The mortgage interest deduction survives in the Ryan/Brady tax plan. The American people are way too addicted to that boondoggle.

But I'll take the plan anyway. Four-fifths of a slice is better than no slice.

Not to argue. I thought the current plan limited it in some way ... and it should be limited to just one mortagage and the size of the damn thing. But I'm not sure what Ryan's current status is on it. His plan also eliminates the "death tax." I really don't see the point since so few pay it, but his thinking also seems to be to eliminate charitable giving deductions, at least in the first link. That would pretty much devastate giving to top tier universities that goes to scholarships for deserving middle class kids. I just don't see any reason the uber rich shouldn't just keep not paying high level income and death taxes for choosing to give to the charity of their choice. By elimianteing the death tax and chaitable giving it seems to me he's just pushing the tax burden downwards, which is current gop groupthink.

BUT even assuming the man has good intentions (which I absolutely do not assume), any tax code change is going to "gore" someone, and it requires the potus to lead it. Trump will criticize the plan, and then criticize the people who proposed it for not passing it.

We're fucked and the gop deserves everything it has coming .... and that may be single payer and 7 income tax levels.

There is a mortgage interest deduction and then one big standard deduction. That's about it.

I don't know what the hell Ryan is waiting for. The man is in the catbird seat and just jerking off while he waits for our juvenile President to grow up.

Not gonna happen, Ryan! Get your ass in gear!

Imagine you are the Speaker of the House. The second most powerful elected official in the Universe.

Imagine you have a laundry list of legislation you have been dying to get enacted. Things like this: http://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Tax-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Poverty-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-NSTF-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Economy-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-Constitution-PolicyPaper.pdf

And this: https://abetterway.speaker.gov/_assets/pdf/ABetterWay-HealthCare-PolicyPaper.pdf


Imagine one day you wake up, and your party now controls the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court. Your party rules the roost in 35 governor mansions. You party rules from sea to shining sea.

And imagine the big, beautiful, terrific, wonderful, best cherry on top of the whole thing is that the American people have elected a game show host as President. A fucking clueless, twittering, nincompoop and his kids are running the Executive branch.

His kids!

Could you imagine that? I mean, talk about sitting in the catbird seat! Holy shit! Wouldn't that be awesome?

I just don't think he truly believes in what he promises the middle class. And we don't have a republican president. Romney's campaign manager is a decent human being and a gentleman, as is Romney, but we got screwed.

The repubs are spineless. The country gave them the house, senate and presidency.

Trump is not a republican. He's an alt-R racist. Therein lies the inability of the congressional leadership to pass republican legislation. It may be that Trump doesn't share true alt-R beliefs on defense (I'm gonnna bomb the shit outta ISIS or there's no reason we can't have good relations with Putin) and the alt-R may not have any actual policy on soc benefits, taxing, spending and deficits. Trump certainly doesn't. LOL
