Here is another one that can't seem to stay out of his own way..............

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) used political donations to pay for almost $15,000 in tickets for Boston Celtics games, winery tours and trips to Las Vegas, according to a McClatchy article published Thursday.

Nunes, who is chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, used money from his political action committee to purchase Celtics tickets three times last year, according to McClatchy's analysis of reports from the Federal Election Commission and two watchdog groups.

His PAC, called New PAC, has also footed the bill for lavish Las Vegas events since 2013, spending a total of $42,741 on catering, rentals, hotels and meals, McClatchy reported.

Speaking of the Trumpster...Im coming up to DC and was looking at hotels. Has anybody ever stayed at a Trump hotel? I took a look and was shocked at the value...really over priced and you could get much better rooms at other spots for $200-300 cheaper per night.

I don't get how his places stay in business...especially how the brand has been kinda tarnished by his presidency. Trump brand used to be lavish luxury...I say that's taken a hit.

Also...and this is grinding gears...$43 per night for valet in DC? ouch. I can see 20-25 but damn. But the way fuck faces drive in DC...probably worth it...

I'm not calling it fake news, and I'm not defending him.

I will say the democrats have a full court press on to attack every republican lawmaker they can, and if these guys aren't mindful, they are going to have every skeleton and tabloid gristle pulled out and waived around.

Reminds me of the good "old days" when Obama was President and the republicans attacked everything in there path..........and then sum.

Agreed 100%. The republicans have no one to blame but themselves. Similar to the democrats and the Senate. Both parties have made choices that the other party turns to their advantage. Very short term thinking. I still think that's why term limits for Congress would make a huge different. If you know that you have xx years, you no longer look for a way to preserve your seat for your whole life, but can in fact look to the long term health of the country.

Their examples of bipartisanship includes 3 republicans siding with Pres Obama, 1 republican siding with Obama, etc.

Bipartisanship in the Senate lets bills pass 97-2 or stats like that. We haven't seen bipartisanship in politics since the Iraq war after 9-11. Once that coalition broke down, the Congress, and the nation has devolved into partisan haggling and demonization/denunciation of the other side has become the norm.

If 3 republicans make a bill bipartisan, than the tax bill and Gorsuch's confirmation were shining examples. They were not.

Could it have been stronger...yes, but the hyperbole that gop were just obstructionists is a false narrative. Also...think about it this way...the GOP in good faith refused to be lock step in rolling back Obamacare with trump.

Folks think for yourself and don’t feed into false narratives pushed mainly by the media. It doesn’t add up when you look at facts.

The reality is that the Republicans in Congress, other than obstructing (Trump and Obama), can't agree on nearly anything, and when they do it's usually watered down Democratic mush. The Democrats in Congresswalk in lockstep when they are in power, and when they are out. Bush/Obama/Trump haven't swayed the Democratic block anyway that the party didn't want them to go.

It's not in good faith that Republicans refused to be in lock step, it's simply that there isn't a unified Republican ideal. In a sense, that has helped them win so many governors and house races. It's easier to win local elections if you are running on local issues. Look at the upcoming SC confirmations. Schumer (or a different party head) said as much, if you are a Democrat you need to risk your seat for the party. There isn't one Republican congressman that would dare make that statement, because their constituent base isn't the national media, but their local flavor of republicanism.
