I think what some are suggesting is that he would lose his leadership role in the Senate (minority leader).
At 78, I have to believe (hope) this is his last term.
That was my thought as well. Just hard to imagine him seeking a term that would have him in Congress until he’s 90.
 
Yes but as minority leader with a Dem POTUS and Dem House that's a worthless position anyway. And he got what he wanted the last four years. So what more can he do anyway is my point.

Minority leader still decides who in their party sits on which committees even if he no longer decides which bills come to the floor.

He and Schumer have been working on a power sharing deal as well. So the GOP may led some committees as I read the agreement.

Whaaaaat?

The Republicans have six SCOTUS appointees because McConnell as minority leader successfully baited Reid into deploying the nuclear option for district and circuit appointees, opening the door for McConnell to turn the tables later on SCOTUS nominations.

Underestimate McConnell's capacity for obstructionism in the minority at your peril.

If you want to argue that minority leader in the House is good for a seat at the Gang of Four intel briefings, a bag of chips and some dip, I'll agree. Different chamber with very different rules.


OT: Agreeing with Shaub that the SCOTUS ruling on emoluments is nuts. The logic goes something like this:

Hoteliers: Trump stole business from us by steering government business to his hotels and inducing foreign business to his hotels as a means of currying favor. That's prohibited under the emoluments clause. We clearly have standing and are seeking redress.

SCOTUS: Is he continuing to steal business?

Hoteliers: Well, no.

SCOTUS: Case dismissed!

Hoteliers: Um, what about the money he already stole? Are you saying that if Bonnie and Clyde had taken out a full page ad in the New York Times announcing their retirement from bank robbing, you'd have just let them go?
 
lol From that page ...
Tubey.

Please please don't ever claim to be educated on a subject....ever....if you're using a NY Times opinion piece to somehow bolster your assertions.
Everyone in this country knows that the NY Times was in the tank for Obama and has already done their best to denigrate Trump. They're the mainstream media. It's what they do.

Educated people (translation...people with a functioning brain) know and understand this over here.

Here you go Tubey. Someone who has 100% more credibility than the NY Times when it comes to race relations in this country:

Apparently Kellyanne Conway leaked a nude pic of her own underage daughter as retribution for the daughter posting lots of negative stuff about her on the internets... sounds hard to believe tbh but those are the claims made by the daughter.
I mean it's pretty easy to substantiate. Kelly Ann goes away for disseminating and distributing child porn if so.

Honestly that whole saga - her, the kid, their relationship and especially the fact that social media firms (and traditional media) exploit the situation for clicks and money is profoundly depressing.
