Not devastating at all......even the DEMS know this and they will be clamoring for Pelosi to start a new Investigation once they gain control in January.

But first look for Pelosi to be the driving force behind the push to give President Trump FIVE BILLION for his wall. This will be a Veteran move on Pelosi’s part as she doesn’t want this being something that President Trump and the Republicans can run on in 2020......Pelosi is smart enough to not want this on her plate in January so look for the deal to be done by December 7th.

All of the above in comparison to President Tiny. Yes, "Every generation thinks it's the last / Thinks it's the end of the world", but fuck it, this is rock bottom.

Oh, it will go lower. Stay tuned.

So....O'Rourke. He's going to run, right?

Thoughts?

evollove · 11.28.2018, 12:47 PM

He'll probably run. He'll get the youth and progressives excited. Not sure about the rest of the country.

Sherrod Brown should run, though. He'd win cuz he'd bring in midwest middle/working-class voters, which I doubt Beto could do. Brown just won against a Trumpian in Ohio, where no other Dem did well. He knows how to reach out.

"It's been over two years since Donald Trump was barely "elected" president thanks to Russia and our lovable-and-quirky Electoral College, and THANK GOD, the New York Times is still committed to introducing us to every goddamned fucking Trump supporter in America.

But unfortunately, the NYT (with reacharounds from Politico and every other piece of crap out there) seems to have run out of roadkill diners and Alabama hootenanny Jesus revival cousin swaps to use as backdrops for their Cletus safaris, so unfortunately it is just back in Manhattan. Specifically, NYT found the dumbest fucking people in Manhattan.

Meet Bill 'n' Bryan!"

Penice and Trimp renew AIDS funding (good) but paid into "faith based" organizations (read, no rubbers)

So, the Cohen news today is quite significant. And Trump is tweeting madly.

Shit is getting real.

DNC Blasts Pence For Multiple Lies In World AIDS Day Address, Failing To Mention LGBTQs For Second Year

From The New Yorker's October 2017 article "The Danger of President Pence":

Quote:

“Trump thinks Pence is great,” Bannon told me. But, according to a longtime associate, Trump also likes to “let Pence know who’s boss.” A staff member from Trump’s campaign recalls him mocking Pence’s religiosity. He said that, when people met with Trump after stopping by Pence’s office, Trump would ask them, “Did Mike make you pray?” Two sources also recalled Trump needling Pence about his views on abortion and homosexuality. During a meeting with a legal scholar, Trump belittled Pence’s determination to overturn Roe v. Wade. The legal scholar had said that, if the Supreme Court did so, many states would likely legalize abortion on their own. “You see?” Trump asked Pence. “You’ve wasted all this time and energy on it, and it’s not going to end abortion anyway.” When the conversation turned to gay rights, Trump motioned toward Pence and joked, “Don’t ask that guy—he wants to hang them all!”

Pence probably offers significantly more danger than Trump, for one reason: he actually knows what he's doing.

Trump's managed to swing his way wildly through two years without cocking things up too badly for anyone. Pence would likely be able to get the things that he and his fellow conservatives want done.

I get what you are saying, but I bolded a part that I think needs clarification: Trump has caused so much damage. No doubt, Pence can do more.

Admittedly, my view may be coloured, thanks to my geographical and political locations. But when it comes to things that've happened, I haven't seen many that have really lasted.

The two that come to mind immediately are the bans on travel and trans military personnel. Both ideas are awful, but IIRC both have been shot down or stuck in limbo?

Probably just a lack of information on my part.

Yeah, I just think of "big picture" things: He lies so much, the office of POTUS is now a joke. He has set the bar so low. Sorry folks, but America Is Not Great Again. America is now laughed at. Worst of all, America is deeply divided, and Trump does everything he can to keep it that way. He is not the leader of America. He is the leader of His Base, which, unfortunately, seems to be well over 40% of voters. That's mind-boggling.

Oh, and Mueller will soon show us how Russia helped Trump to become POTUS, and then there will be a civil war.
