It's a deft trick to turn American exceptionalism into an exceptional political tactic.
For me an hour-long speech is not a filibuster. It is a brief observation.
When asked if he could speak for an hour to assist with a filibuster:
When you use the word 'filibuster,' most of us in America - and I count myself among them - envision it as the ability to hold the floor on rare occasions to speak at length and make your point emphatically and even delay progress by taking hours.
Not only has [Donlald] Trump adopted that tactic attacking usual suspects like The New York Times and The Washington Post, but he's turning it back on the conservative media who invented it in the first place.
Trump has to do what Reagan did. Trump's gotta go on the air and tell us what his tax plan is and put it in our faces and put them on the spot. That's what I think he should do.
Civil disobedience is a viable political tactic, and a non-violent tactic.
Triangulation is not a strategy that will move America forward.
If there is a nuclear tactic being used here, I submit it is the use of that obstruction where a willful minority blocks a bipartisan majority from voting on the President's judicial nominees.
Gas tax holiday is a classic Washington gimmick.
Ascribing racial animus to people who are trying to safeguard democratic integrity is a crude yet effective political tactic that obscures the truth. But there's something even worse than name-calling: legal interference from Washington with valid laws.
