Linda thanks for opening.... I feel as if the IQ of 1/2 the nation has dropped down with this last campaign cycle and election. The Drumpf base will believe anything. (sorry if I am offending, but vat a mess) Is it poor nutrition over the years? Poor Education System? Not to be snarkie,......and there she goes being snarkie................. a teacher friend of mine, very good, very devoted to what she does, cast her vote for DT. Now what does she think? I have to tread lightly so can't ask, but in the depths of her soul is there a little voice saying "bad choice, buyers remorse?" (or is it saying at least DT is not Hillary?) Remember the speed song GO JOHNNY GO? Is dissing us to our "friends" the right thing to do Senator, then I read that Bolton is under consideration for Ntl Security Advisor. The barrel has been scraped clean of a bottom and DT is picking up the maggots underneath. OK John, you started, now what are you going to do to complete the mission? We need to do lunch soon. Going to make a good examination of conscience. Have I been unkind in my thoughts?

I honestly don't know what to think anymore, except I absolutely hate what all this crap is doing to this country. Who is one to believe. McCain & Graham talk tough but are they going to follow thru on investigating?!?!...The rest of the Republican Congress & even the ND Dem Senator Heidcamp has their heads buried deep thinking about their own careers, next elections & what agendas they want out of Tweety. The Tweety supporters will never admit they are wrong, the CIA, FBI & other agencies have to know something about Trump, Bannon, Miller, Stone & the rest of the gang but what will they do with that info!?!?...Everyday it's something new & worrisome & everyday Tweety gets away with it, ..I'm really getting scared we are in for a very big & dangerous rude awaking that we may never recover from. The clock is ticking & no one who can stop this seems to be willing to even try except the press & we all see what's happening there.
3 cheers for Snarkie, Anne :-):-)... I'm working on perfecting my snarkiness because I'm getting tired of my friends & some family members saying what they want & to keep peace i would just smile & change the subject. Only because I knew what it could lead to & nothing I can say will persuade them to change their mind about Trump, anyway, but I'm beginning to throw in a snarkie comment here & there lately & I'm beginning to like the look on their face when I do. LOL... No arguing, just the comment & move on. I'm not as quick thinking or as witty as you ladies, but working on it...LOL

Michael Moore 21 mins · Just so you understand: The rally Trump is holding right now near Orlando, Florida is, as his aides are calling it, "an official Re-Elect Trump 2020 campaign rally." On Inauguration Day, Trump filed the legal papers with the Federal Election Commission to establish the "Re-Elect President Trump 2020 Committee." No president has ever done this. Today's rally is sponsored by and paid for by "Re-Elect Trump 2020". I'm serious. This is happening. Trump doesn't intend to leave until January, 2025. He'll be close to 80 then. His filing, this rally, is his way of saying, "PRESIDENT FOR LIFE." HIS life. Not exactly "a Reich that lasts 1,000 years," but when you're a massive narcissist, you don't really give a shit about a thousand years from now -- just the years when you're going to be around to do the damage. Over 50,000 rabid Trump faithful have shown up to this massive rally now underway. This airport hangar can't hold them all. My crew, unbeknownst to the Trump operatives, is inside. Welcome to Nuremberg. Florida.

" but in the depths of her soul is there a little voice saying "bad choice, buyers remorse?" (or is it saying at least DT is not Hillary?)" If I were to take a guess I'd have to say it would probably be,"at least it's not Hillary." I've always believed this election was about hatred. Still believe it was personal hatred against Hillary. Just my opinion and beliefs. Nobody can deny she's smarter, has more experience, and is more qualified than the demented orange-oaf. So, what else could it have been? Did they cast their vote FOR the madman or AGAINST Hillary? And, if it was against her that was their decision and they have to live with it. Sadly, so do I. Back in the day we'd say they cut of their nose to spite their face.

"Melania has to READ the Lord's Prayer...REALLY!...I found that rather odd!" That is odd being that the orange oaf is such a good Christian. I have friends that are Wiccan and friends that are Atheist and even they know the Lord's Prayer. LOL. She'd probably have to read The Pledge Of Allegiance too. They are a national disgrace. The exact opposite of the Obama's. They give me a headache!

I think I know a way to have the Republicans turn away from Trump.
Give him a cigar and put him in a blue dress. They will never stand for that.
Destroy the country-spend our taxes on his out of bounds life style-snuggle up to Val baby-have the most corrupt administration ever but who cares?

Anne, they get it. They're not stupid. These Congress People and Senators are cunning two faced hypocrites. What's good for the goose is not good for the gander if the gander is a Democrat. Sometimes I wish I had more faith. I wish I believed in things like, "what goes around comes around" but I don't.

We are heading for a Dictatorship and the people at DT's rally and those like them, are going carry him in on their shoulders.
Their children and grand children will not Bless their name.
For Shame!

Did anyone see the interview after the rally, of the guy Tweety called on stage at his rally?... This guy said he has a cardboard life size statue of Trump in his home, who he talks to & prays to. Ok, seriously, it was weird! When Tweety called on this guy to jump the barrier & come on stage, my first thought was, you are putting the Secret Service lives on the line, & the people sitting behind you, & Tweety just makes a joke & laughs, saying something like " the secret service don't like this at all". Ahhhhhh, ya, ya think!...what a damn idiot! ..,I still wonder if this little stunt wasn't staged?!?!

When you are giving a presentation you try to get the audience involved, then they feel empowered and you have them on your side.

Been out of town a couple of days, and missed the posts but I've gone back and read so think I am all caught up now.
The hypocrisy gets deeper every day, and while I think that Tweety's administration and the Republican Congress realize the hypocrisy and just don't care, I also think that there are a LOT of Tweety supporters out there who are just too stupid to even recognize it because they are so brain washed. They're people just like that total idiot Tweety called up on stage who salutes a paper cut out of Tweety in his home every morning. There are not even words to describe such idiocy!
So it's not enough that KAC and Spicer keep throwing out false attacks, but now Tweety is making them up for Sweden. Do you think he just makes that up on the spur of the moment, or did he see a movie and confuse it with reality? Either way it is totally scary to have someone so completely out of touch with the truth.
We have now spent more in a little less than a month on security for Tweety and his family than President Obama would spend in a single year, and yet Conservatives and also Tweety constantly harped on how much the tax payer was having to pay for the Obamas. Yet, no, his mindless followers don't see the hypocrisy in that.
Even Fox news is starting to make some negative comments about him on their website--not many, but a few. The cracks are opening, but his lemmings are being conditioned not to believe anything the press reports, and they are swallowing that crap hook, line, and sinker. It's disgusting!
McCain and Graham are throwing out a lot of statements, but like Linda, when push comes to shove who knows where they'll come down. Wherever they see the most benefit to themselves for sure.
Actually, I did have a very enjoyable and relaxing couple of days but just a brief overview of the news and I am reminded of just what a mess our country is now embroiled in.
