LAWRENCE on! WHAT did Dems accomplish? [View all] elleng Nov 10 OP

Listen to him. Republicans caved not Democrats. Srkdqltr Nov 10 #1

HE'S RIGHT. ancianita Nov 10 #18

They killed the ACA. Demsrule86 Nov 11 #50

He's giving an alternative perspective on the "deal" - Republicans "caved" spooky3 Nov 10 #2

Bullshit. choie Nov 10 #4

Have a nice day! nt spooky3 Nov 10 #5

He also said that John Glenn was the 1st person to orbit the earth Layzeebeaver Nov 11 #38

John Glenn was not the first person to orbit the earth! Layzeebeaver Nov 11 #39

We lost healthcare... likely forever. Demsrule86 Nov 11 #51

They did not get SNAP increased. choie Nov 10 #3

Got current payment levels restored. Whether that matters enough depends one's perspective. Silent Type Nov 10 #10

increased BACK to what is already mandated by law, Jack Valentino Nov 11 #29

It was fully restored and guaranteed through September of 2026. That's a big deal. SunSeeker Nov 11 #35

SNAP was always going to be avialable through September 30, 2026. choie Nov 11 #48

Wrong. SNAP ran out of money Nov. 1. SunSeeker Nov 11 #53

That was due to the shutdown. choie Nov 11 #55

In past shutdowns, SNAP was always paid out of emergency funds. Not this time. SunSeeker Nov 11 #57

I think his show is decent, but I'm not sure what position they abandoned? Ilikepurple Nov 11 #42

The one thing they wanted the most, they caved and let go. lees1975 Nov 11 #30
