She validates our convictions brilliantly. But the cult don't listen. All they see is "foreigners and abortion." It doesn't matter how stupid he is; they will vote for him and his ilk over & over. Dems can't win on cerebral outrage if they want to bounce the nazis. We'll just get smoked a 3rd time.

Same. And I really, really hope we're both dead wrong. But it's doubtful.

Hakeem, please...I get that you need to do something "official" to register the Dems' displeasure, but every R will laugh at this. Another example of Ds bringing squirt guns to a nuclear showdown.

I will do that. I know that they've taken "their own" people down with all the firings, and that can't be pleasant. If only they'd realize how little those shitbeasts care about them.

MAGA is terrified? lol bullshit. Those fuckers are in a perpetual circle jerk of nirvana, and they'll *still* follow that moron, even as they die under his policies.
We're supposed to be the ones telling the truth. These types of headlines scream the same crap the other side lives and feeds on.

Mark, this hits home because my own son (44 yrs. old), who loves his mom, adores his family, is a great provider and kindhearted person -- voted for trump. He listened to all the wrong people (his father & uncles). I can't give up on him; I can only hope to lovingly change his mind.

I am convinced that all this chicanery is a weather balloon. They're basically throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. Will the nation just accept it, or will they balk and fight? Their primary objective is to just wear down the opposition until they capitulate. We can't let that happen.

I actually saw it for the first time, in a comment on my FB:
"So glad Trump won. Now we're waiting for Vance to take over."
When rubber meets road, they don't give a shit about the old man; they're looking behind him to the real unleashing.

Agreed, totally. Now just watch him be confirmed.

And may I ask... "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside" --- how is this even an issue? What's their pitch??

Because idiots in Ohio would be just stupid enough to make it happen after DeWine toddles off to the pasture. That, and they voted Vance in.

Mark, please -- this. She is absolutely right. I'm on a pension, and my rent eats up a great deal of it.

That's what I've been saying. Progressives/sane people who are still posting on that toxic waste dump are doing no one any favors, except Leon and his idiots. Everyone with a soul should quit that filthy place. No excuses.

One thing's for sure: we will never, ever win by appealing to folks's better angels, and blinding them with science, and demonstrating decency and intellectual discourse and facts. Those ships have allll sailed. We need fucking Batman.
