Excellent on point interview by Margaret of Face the Nation with incoming Senate Majority Leader Thune. Those of us who are voting Democrats need to understand the voices and values who are in the slim majority of our country citizens. We can expect to see negotiations and compromises on both sides of the aisle frequently in support of economically underserved without prejudice or bias, while supporting those advancing in financial gains. Sharing our country and its wealth internally, as well as protecting us externally from those who would harm us. Again, thank you, both, Margaret, B and Senator Thune. Let’s get to work cooperatively for the benefit of all.
I have an idea, all people in senate and house should take a lie detector test all the time to make sure they are working towards helping Americans and if they are not then they should be ousted from office. Dodge needs to make sure this happens.

Here, take another tax cut.
@smackoholick it doesn't matter if he's a veteran or not. The post of the head of the pentagon needs to be someone with a lot of administrative experience because, the pentagon itself is a very big organization with a mighty budget that needs to be properly managed. That's not a job for a common soldier like the current nominee. Let's be straightforward.
Hey Margaret, why didn’t you ask the senator how he feels about Trump being a convicted felon in the White House? Why didn’t you ask him how he feels about Donald Trump being found liable of sexual abuse? Why didn’t you ask him how he feels about Donald Trump inciting an insurrection against the United States of America?
I would bet that a majority of the people in congress have done worse than Trump. Only difference is they circle the wagons and protect each other so they can keep on doing it. I am continually amazed that people trust people with one letter at the end of their name, and don’t trust someone that has a different letter. I don’t trust ANYONE that has a name at the end of their name. Wake up scooter!
@@Caydes_ghost76 it’s funny that you think they will overturn the judgements. But still I want news organizations to ask real questions. No one likes Trump, they just voted for him because he’s the Republican nominee.
It would be nice - but then the GOP would cry "You only pick on Trump and his people! No fair" Trump is a deluge of bad news, but if you bring it up they get mad and tell you to "get over it"
It is interesting that Majority Leader Thune is describing the concept of working across the aisle in the context of Republicans being united. The very idea of Republicans and Democrats working together on legislation is now extinct. Brennan: "You don't need Republicans to get these [nominees] through." The definition of governing is now having the majority; unfortunately, that is not the definition of leadership. So much for "regular order." You can't truly solve bipartisan problems with partisan solutions.
This. Our legislators only work for themselves and the people that voted for them. Not everyone. They have too much pride to reach across the party and work with the "opposition"
@@carolynsumners4915 I believe politicians have a fundamental misunderstanding of how to do their jobs. (Representing every one in their district regardless of party affiliation). I think this would exist regardless of if Donald Trump had influence or not. However it would probably be less severe and slightly more bipartisan
Senate Majority Leader on paper only, Mitch supported him and will still have major influence behind the scenes. Thune is a 20 year "Old Guard' member. He says he will let Trump know what is "realistic" remember Paul Ryan, Pres Trump will learn how Congress works. Thune will be of no help
Why are democrats so afraid To argue amongst themselves for what they believe their constituents voted for.? I'm glad not all republicans believe on everything.In every issue I'm glad there's in fighting there.That's democracy
These RINO senators hate being scrutinized by the American people. And they really hate when we call them out on their BS. We’ll be watching closely, Senator Thune. Don’t disappoint.
Thune is my senator. He has been spineless for our state. He and Noem seem to forget that we are an agricultural based state. The majority of R's in our state are not happy with either one of them. Maintain the Senate Rules, senator. Be sure you adhere to these rules or risk invalidating your entire body and making them irrelevant. We are watching.
@@pablohiteshew2457 And do YOU think that would answer all our inflation issues? By the way, the government doesn't own the oil companies, at least not yet. You think Donald will nationalize them?

Here's what the Ryan tax cuts, that Trump took credit for, did for our balance sheet. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated in 2018 that the 2017 law would cost $1.9 trillion over ten years. Together with the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts enacted under President Bush (most of which were made permanent in 2012), the law has severely eroded our country’s revenue base. Revenue as a share of GDP has fallen from about 19.5 percent in the years immediately preceding the Bush tax cuts to just 16.3 percent in the years immediately following the Trump tax cuts. Trump administration officials claimed their centerpiece corporate tax rate cut would “very conservatively” lead to a $4,000 boost in household income. Research shows that workers who earned less than $114,000 on average in 2016 saw “no change in earnings” from the corporate tax rate cut, while top executive salaries increased sharply. Yeah lets just keep doing what is unsustainable. BTW as a small business owner working from home our taxes actually went up. My accountant, to her surprise (a big Trump supporter) told me that was pretty typical from what she saw.

We want the best of all worlds here, and a lot of MAGA is willing to give you a chance. If we can come together as a party, make some difficult compromises and agree to move forward with a unified front, I think we can really do something special and surprise a lot of people. But just know, if GOP leadership alienates MAGA by ignoring our input, things won't go well for Republicans in the midterms.
Will you kindly tell some MAGA parents with young children that they should still get the MMR vaccine? Measles isn't benign. I had it as a kid and I barely survived it.
It truly would be a surprise if MAGA policies did something special for anyone besides Trump and his cronies. It's true that if MAGA policies go through, the Republicans will go down in the midterms.
The Majority Leader Thurman is very reasonable that he believes supporting each elected President’s authority by supporting each and helping each other for getting things done right and quickly. Spending cuts for saving financial stability. Overly expanded 37 trillion dollars of debts are risky to America’s future stability for sure. Overly severe taxes and regulations will knock down America’s economic growth for sure. Dramatic minimum wage raises will surely make America made products harder to compete. Severe inflation rates will bring middle classed and blue collar workers’ life much harder to live happily. Any countries just can’t afford to support others by borrowing money above tremendously accumulated severe debts. If America’s financial situation is stretched too much beyond worrying, measuring pockets to spend maybe important, because helping others must surely America’s own financial security is okay. No parents should help others by leaving own children babies hungry to crying loud and being helpless for sure. So the Majority Leader Thurman believes getting things done right and quickly by supporting each other’s positions for getting things done rightly and quickly. Hating each other as a great nation America, whole world will wonder, enemies will laugh loudly and happily. Getting things done rightly and quickly, allies will be happy and support. Loving America dearly will bring thumbs out after seeing results of getting things done rightly and quickly. Govern by Constitution laws together for preserving, protecting and defending freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunity together will show whole world America’s confidence towards own recognitions and principles, freedoms and equality of opportunity importance and efforts, America’s world leadership status effectiveness and efficiency. America’s greatness absolutely will shine for America’s future and future America generations’ stable living and strength as America’s economy growing to support defense capabilities. Also will shine in the shining hills for whole world’s more freedoms, equality of opportunity and happiness to live under sun shining altogether. I guess this is the Senate Majority Leader Thurman’s vision as why and how to get things done rightly and quickly. If America lost freedoms, America won’t be America 🇺🇸 anymore. If America’s economy will fall behind, strength can’t keep long. If America’s unity disappeared, strength will be weakened. If America becomes a country of ideologies, America will loose world leadership status quickly. Nothing can achieve without getting things done rightly and quickly together as one indivisible nation America 🇺🇸 and Americans together for getting things done rightly and quickly. Thanks for sharing and our learning opportunities and process.
Well Mr. Thune, perhaps your boy trump shouldn't choose such ludicrous people for his cabinet choices. Tax cut for the rich no....cuts for the poor that's how that will go.
@ wow. I’m always amazed that people will believe in someone that has a specific letter after their name. I don’t trust ANYONE that has a letter at the end of their name. Trust should be earned and after the last 4 years, for you to say Biden’s people were qualified, well, you are one of the people that amaze me. Take off the wine colored glasses and stop basing everything off FEELINGS.
You Still need to be less adverarial! Face the Nation is getting better but there's always a difference when you question democrats! When you are fair I will give you a thumbs up!
I like John Thunes civility but how does he think that 900 billion dollars on the military is “underfunding” we fund our military more than 5 nato nations combined!
The nominees were told how to act and what to say during the process. How is the process fair if the nominees are able to project a false narrative with no pushback from the majority. The needs of the country should be first.
There is no discussion about important basic qualifications of the nominees, which should be a major screening tool for moving a nominee forward to a vote. A lot of the nominees are not qualified because they are lacking skills and experience to do the job.
They are qualified because we say they are. That’s all there is to it. Every cabinet member will be confirmed or trump will appoint them as acting and things will go forward. We simply aren’t playing games with these devils any longer. Nothing can stop what is coming. Nothing.
@@horus932 Of course it is a matter of skills and experience. These are high level cabinet positions that oversee billions of dollar budgets and thousands of workers. You don't put a rookie into a position with such huge responsibilities. The only qualifications apparent in a lot of the picks are that they want to destroy the departments that they are nominated to.
why don’t you transfer a lot of those new IRS agents to border patrol and if they won’t go fire them fight it out in court the federal unions is long overdue to be disbanded
More IRS spending is the easiest and single most beneficial thing for reducing the debt. Every dollar spent on improving the IRS pays back thousands. Even you would benefit - assuming you're not worth 500 Million or more, or a corporate CEO.
The more democrats don’t want some of the cabinet members confirmed the more republicans need to confirm them especially Patel, Pete and Tulsi she keeps asking about them the republicans better confirm his cabinet picks
Biden border deal was just cover for complete neglect and in no way was a serious compromise... more of just a political talking point that was designed to fail.

America’s greatness absolutely will shine for America’s future and future America generations’ stable living and strength as America’s economy growing to support defense capabilities. Also will shine in the shining hills for whole world’s more freedoms, equality of opportunity and happiness to live under sun shining altogether. I guess this is the Senate Majority Leader Thurman’s vision as why and how to get things done rightly and quickly. If America lost freedoms, America won’t be America 🇺🇸 anymore. If America’s economy will fall behind, strength can’t keep long. If America’s unity disappeared, strength will be weakened. If America becomes a country of ideologies, America will loose world leadership status quickly. Nothing can achieve without getting things done rightly and quickly together as one indivisible nation America 🇺🇸 and Americans together for getting things done rightly and quickly. Thanks for sharing and our learning opportunities and process.
19:18 Did she say,"Later it is wonderful to be here with you."?
Who wants higher taxes, open borders, no gas, no energy, censorship, democrats and the American people are tired
Sounds like this is a nice setup for not getting important Trump's nominees passed
Well Mr. Thune, perhaps your boy trump shouldn't choose such ludicrous people for his cabinet choices. Tax cut for the rich no....cuts for the poor that's how that will go.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, because Biden’s picks were awesome! 🙄
@@dwass394 Yes, they are all qualified....not the case with Trump's picks.
@ wow. I’m always amazed that people will believe in someone that has a specific letter after their name. I don’t trust ANYONE that has a letter at the end of their name. Trust should be earned and after the last 4 years, for you to say Biden’s people were qualified, well, you are one of the people that amaze me. Take off the wine colored glasses and stop basing everything off FEELINGS.
You Still need to be less adverarial! Face the Nation is getting better but there's always a difference when you question democrats! When you are fair I will give you a thumbs up!
That is the nature of our news media today. Fair? They don't know what that means.
They question the lies. And the GOP lies so much more.
Margaret needs an attitude adjustment quickly. Her bias toward democrats and anti-trump views are not helpful to her or her network.
Why doesn’t Thunes YT channel not enable our ability to post comments? I can post here but not there???
Too much talk, not enough substance, Bootlicker alert, Bootlicker alert!🚨
THUNE: "Blah blah blah, hail Trump! Hail Satan!"
You can say that after what Biden's handlers did to this country??
You forgot 💰, hail 💰! 😞
all rinos need to understand that its not republican party any more we are MAGA
I like John Thunes civility but how does he think that 900 billion dollars on the military is “underfunding” we fund our military more than 5 nato nations combined!
You are looking at the Alpha Rino in my opinion.
Ask him if he will insist that the constitution is respected.
The nominees were told how to act and what to say during the process. How is the process fair if the nominees are able to project a false narrative with no pushback from the majority. The needs of the country should be first.
This man was a superstar. For those who don’t know why, he defeated the Phony rabid anti Bush Democrat Partisan Tom Daschle of SD.
2004
tom daschle being defeated was a huge blow when it happened.
Anti Bush is a good thing, now that we know the wars Bush got us into were for nothing. Too bad he won.
I don’t trust him. He’ll do whatever the Dear Leader tells him. If they both have the same objectives, we’re in trouble.
The senate hasn't functioned at all. Hopefully that will change very soon.
NCIS, Season 14, Episode 7.
As America loses all its quality of Mercy.
Wonder if they compared long knives after interview?
There is no discussion about important basic qualifications of the nominees, which should be a major screening tool for moving a nominee forward to a vote. A lot of the nominees are not qualified because they are lacking skills and experience to do the job.
They are qualified because we say they are. That’s all there is to it. Every cabinet member will be confirmed or trump will appoint them as acting and things will go forward. We simply aren’t playing games with these devils any longer. Nothing can stop what is coming. Nothing.
It’s not a matter of skills and experience, young people just need a chance.
You mean like Buttigieg??
@@horus932 Of course it is a matter of skills and experience. These are high level cabinet positions that oversee billions of dollar budgets and thousands of workers. You don't put a rookie into a position with such huge responsibilities. The only qualifications apparent in a lot of the picks are that they want to destroy the departments that they are nominated to.
Future president
It's Trumpin Time
Margaret is it too hard for you to say President Elect Trump?
Deface the Nation
Pretty sure since her husband is a Syrian-Americann she might be thinking about the people there and not Trump.
It's not too hard to say president Trump he won a fair election that's not hard to say is it harder for you to say convicted felon
@ wtf are u talking about? What does that have to do with anything I said?
@ShawnTurner-m7g
I agree with her...
@@yvonneplant9434That’s pretty small, petty and none of your business.
The old Guard Reagan Republicans don't like Trump.
I think I can speak for everything single one of us. At least it's not McConnell
Will Thune replace Elizabeth MacDonough so she wont block reconciliation bills from House?
why don’t you transfer a lot of those new IRS agents to border patrol and if they won’t go fire them fight it out in court the federal unions is long overdue to be disbanded
More IRS spending is the easiest and single most beneficial thing for reducing the debt. Every dollar spent on improving the IRS pays back thousands. Even you would benefit - assuming you're not worth 500 Million or more, or a corporate CEO.
The more democrats don’t want some of the cabinet members confirmed the more republicans need to confirm them especially Patel, Pete and Tulsi she keeps asking about them the republicans better confirm his cabinet picks
They had a border bill, but Donald said no let everybody come over the border. That’s what Donald said. Yep 👍
Were you born stupid or did it take practice?
He said NOTHING of the kind.
When you don’t know, be quiet
@ yes I do know you be quiet what’s wrong You can’t handle the truth. 😂😂🍿🍿🤡 show coming !
That border bill was total bull crap. Get real.
Biden border deal was just cover for complete neglect and in no way was a serious compromise... more of just a political talking point that was designed to fail.
And you will be primaried if you dont do what america voted for...
Deface the Nation…she is trying to be fair but you can tell HATES not bashing Trump….major TDS for several years now🇺🇸
She has a script. She's sticking to it. I wish it had a wife like that that I could have convinced. No matter what my real actions were
You're making me dizzy
Margaret is just awful. That B needs to be fired. Her temper, her bias, her attitude, her facial expressions.
America ain’t buying her.
😂😂😂 grow up
@ I agree, she should grow up.
Why are you hiding the Nancy Pelosi interview?
John Thune has to GO
Guys got a mouthful of marbles
Ask him he like crazy musk as president.
Rebuild the military?
