Doesn't seem to be enough opportunity to turn the Senate, so at least two more years of this shit before we have a shot at impeaching him. The stupid will not be denied. The real irreversible harm being done to the environment will continue, so we will barrel down the oath to environmental destruction while the stupid are jumping up and down congratulating themselves on being smart. And if anything could be worse, rumor has it that Hillary still wants to be president.

Hilary has also said she won't run again. So are you believing the unsubstantiated rumors or Hilary herself?

People get worked up over the weirdest stuff

How often have politicians said they have no plans of running to then come out and run anyways? I am not believing anything nor would I discount it. Once the election results from the midterm are out it would be interesting tuioi aar what shakes out.

I think the Governors elections are most important. If the dems can roll back gerrymandering it would help the most moving forward

Yes getting governorships is important, I would be focused on reverse gerrymandering so we keep the advantage going forward. Rolling back suggests making it fair again, no need to do that the other side never plays fair. If we keep taking the high road we lose, can't beat entrenched stupidity that votes for any type of corruption as long as they are fed their daily red meat via the fake news. Every system of check and balance is almost over run by right wing corruption, you can't play fair and win anymore. Check out the election in Georgia. The guy running for the senate seat is also the chief election officer!!! WTF????

Trump has turned lying into the new normal. I mean all politicians lie at some point but this guy literally tells several bald faced lies every single day and the rest of his republican comrades have started doing the same. We have lost all honor in the political process and Trump has set this country back decades from a moral prospective. A nation ruled by fear and disinformation is not a nation that is going to prosper.

voted!

always feels good

Allanfan20 @ 11/6/2018 8:12 AM
Just voted. I am super duper lucky. There are never lines at the site I vote at. Always quick and painless. Hopefully that doesn’t change.

I didnt' vote for the orange suckhole, but you sound like a fat sophomore ho who didn't get picked to go to the senior prom (thanks, TripleThreat).
Is the Cheeto lying and spreading disinformation about the Dow Jones? Is he lying and spreading disinformation about unemployment and jobs? Is he the one propping up the MeToo movement and having 60 year olds whine on endlessly about what they can't remember happened back when they were 17 at high school house parties?

Moral perspective. You are more moral because Obama got your transgender friends to use the bathroom of their choice and your kids in kindergarten are being instructed on the best way to use KY jelly? Give me a break with your moral outrage.

This guy makes George W. look like a eloquent statesman of character!
Orange Cheeto man has sold his soul to Russian oligarchs who laundered cash thru his casino's and properties and Saudi princes who own his ass. Because they own him, he sells us out.
That said Im ok with Dem's taking the house and slow this destruction down. An impeachment would ripe the country apart. Selfishly I'd like to see him rot in a cell while his prostate becomes a malignant swollen infected time bomb but the country comes first. Better he go away as quietly as possible. Perhaps Mueller can demonstrate his corrupt nature enough that he decides to not run again in fear of humiliation of defeat.

Dude, get a clue and stop putting words in my mouth. Trump lies about facts and attacks the very fabric of our country. I am not talking about social or economic issues. Whether you believe in gay rights or whether you believe in abortion or any number of things, that is not my issue. But there are certain things that are fundamental to our American moral beliefs. First, we Americans expect our leaders to speak facts to us. Now I am not niave to believe that politicians don't lie but I cannot recall anytime when politicians so blantantly told falsehoods and spread fear. Moreover, since when do politicians attack the media and call the press the "enemy of the public." The press serves a vital role in our democracy in making those in power accountable for their actions and in disclosing the truth. When have our leaders called on the FBI to not investigate people because of their political affliation and then call on the FBI to investigate those of another party simply because they are democrats. This guy calls out for private citizens to be fired for exercising their 1st amendment right and then he befriends dictators. This is what I am talking about when I say he is destroying the moral fiber of our country. It is dangerous. You think this country will always exist but it is when people stop following the principles of honor and fairness and truth that has been the bedrock of our nation that you see the whole thing crumble. American has had its problems, such a racism. But it is those principles of due process, the freedom of the press, free speech, fairness, and the honor of Americans that has guided this country to a better, if not perfect, place and Trump seems determined to tear it all down.

Just want to take a moment to marvel at this being a genuine expression by a real live person.

That said:

Is the Cheeto lying and spreading disinformation about the Dow Jones?

In fact, yes.

Is he lying and spreading disinformation about unemployment and jobs?

In fact, that too, yes, he is.

Oooh it's Einstein with the bad crap. Dow Jones??? WHAT THE FUKK does the Dow Jones have to do with anything? Unemployment numbers show how many people are employed they don't show how many people are actually making a living, do you understand the difference or does your fat prom date need to break it down for you?

I have posted literally pages of materials supporting my POV to get rid of entrenched centrists. And also the harm they have done to the country over time. Centrists have supported neoliberal policies that have destroyed the core fabric of middleclass America. And when I did that no one produced any material supporting any other POV. I can't change any minds, I am just posting on what I want to see done.

Marv @ 11/7/2018 9:11 AM
maybe brown, klobuchar, gillibrand gain some momentum for 2020. maybe even o'rourke despite the tough loss.

sorry msg (meloshouldgo), i like me some moderate democrats.
