  Yeah they were trying to get him on spending money to fly Chastain with him. He responded with the list of all prior people who Tom their spouses, as expected and customary, with them. He then asks why he's any different. They sat looking stupidly at him because they didn't expect him to have a response.
context: If he makes flying better people will love him - except jealous gqp cult members who will want to ban air travel to piss off the libs. >
  
  All Pete has to say is, "Here is my $20B infrascture plan to upgrade the technology at all US airports. All it needs is the Repugs approval."
  Repugs response: " Derrrr... Stoves...  Ban all books... Forced births are what our Founding Fathers wanted... Derrrr..." >
  
  He’s been doing a fantastic job with messaging lately, so I’m hoping he does or says something similar to this. That’s really all the Democratic Party has to do at this point for the next two years to win the media messaging game. Simply say, “This is what we have tried to do and the GOP said no,” and then they can just go highlight all the bullshit they’re doing instead of what they claimed they were going to do during the mid-terms. >
  
  That's assuming the democrats will ever be willing to play hardball with the repugs. Spoiler alert, they won't be. Democrats are forever chasing those mythical independent and undecide voters. So their messaging is always soft. Meanwhile the rest of our democracy suffers because the dems won't rock the boat. >
  
  He'll talk his way out of it. That's a compliment too because as Fox News has routinely found out, the man can explain circles around them, and I think they secretly like it considering they keep having him on just so he can own them every time. >
  
  I legitimately enjoy watching him on Fox. It's like rope a dope with their dumb asses. >
  
  It’s weird too because he has plenty of qualities they would like, but they can never admit it because he’s A DEMOCRAT. >
  
  ... and gay. Gotta attack him because of that too. How dare he have a husband and children! >
  
  I was almost going to mention that too. Seems Fox would be ok with that too…if he wasn’t a Democrat, lol. They’re always looking for new props
