In reply to the discussion: Trumpf offers bribe to Fetterman [View all]magicarpet
(19,273 posts)14. Oh my,... under the above scenario the trDUMP payoff to Fetterman to switch parties would increase significantly.
A 51-R/50-D senate would squash any impeachment ideas, stop any meaningful or in depth oversight, and help keep ShitsHisPants out of prison.
djt would fork over big bucks to make that his reality for the last two years of his second term.

Yea. I've been musing about the seemingly changed persona of the guy. Do you think he was always a DINO?

yep, his "leverage" etc is in staying. Either way, he's so fucking losing his job in 2028.

Thanks. Yes, I could use a search engine, but I believe posters should provide links when possible.

I just assume all posted memes are fake, unless accompanied by a source. Saves a lot of time. :-) n/t

I don't assume they're *all* fake, but I assume a lot of them are, and it's getting hard to tell which ones are which.

Where in the rules around here is it a responsibility to provide a link?

Article says he votes with Democrats 93% of the time and he thinks he'd be a "shitty Republican."

So you're saying Hannity is lying about Rump's offer and just made up the bribe himself? Seriously?

Hannity is a well-known liar and propagandist., Nonetheless, this is not the type of thing I see him making up

obviously there's a lot going on but the POTUS offering a bribe to a Senator to switch parties seems significant

it used to be basically the same, like quid pro quo. SCOTUS weakened the definition of bribery though.

Some may not realize that 80% of Fetterman's voting record is progressive

IMO, Fetterman should register as an Independent. He's certainly no democrat.
