it's true, 31 are still in effect.
Though none of them is about something like the wall which Trump didn't get funded even when he had both congress and senate.
And I don't think they are meant for purposes like that either.
Actually none of them - the 9/11 one aside - is even noteworthy for the public. And most people very likely never heard of them.
The topic, the reasoning behind it and the fact that Trump can't even get his own party fully behind it and he has to resort to this, makes it a lot more newsworthy than the other 31.
And can we really call people "low information crowd" when they dont know about |
You don't know what you're talking about Stefan.
Paul Ryan was the Speaker Of The House. He is the reason that nothing was done.
Hell, he didn't do a lot of anything as Speaker except the tax bill.
Just because a party has both houses of Congress doesn't mean that they can do things...ESPECIALLY when the entire Republican Party hated Trump (remember? Trump called them all "puppets" of the Koch Brothers).
Trump did a hostile take-over of the Republican Party. And I'm glad he did.
And yes...you are VERY low-information on my country. Not your fault. Your being fed bullshit by the mainstream media.
