I'm not upset about a work retreat held during a Senate recess that was likely scheduled at the beginning of the year. This trip has likely been planned long before the threat of a shutdown, and the focus on 'Tuscan vibes' or whatever and 'wine caves' strikes me as pure rage bait.
Definitely a rage bait post, like we are all are supposed to believe she booked the retreat a few days ago. Meanwhile Trump is going ahead with building his $340 million ballroom with at least $7 million of gold leafing and crystal chandeliers. But yeah, look at those evil Democrats.
Yeah, rage bait.
It's a nice hotel, yes, but it's bookable on Travelocity. We're not in the world of exclusive, unattainable luxury.
We're deep in the realm of "middle class luxury". Your typical fare for dentist conventions. 4 stars, two night, a nice dinner and vineyard tour package.
Tuscan vibes means "warm, dry and brown". A wine cave is a fancy word for "basement with climate control". If they were renting a Tuscan vineyard I'd be more upset.
Sure would be a shame if protestors disrupted their spa treatments and wine cave tour.
To... tell them they should give Trump what he wants and end the shutdown? (if it happens)
Hunger Games shit. Gillebrand is an odious individual.
