    Hearsay about hearsay. Dems leak what appears to be damning evidence only to find out they hid the exculpatory testimony. This is a clown show for the useful idiots.

    Not interested in locking up everyone and certainly not ruining everyone but the Dems certainly seem to be.
    No sane person wants a war, civil or otherwise but only an idiot refuses to contend when it's dropped in his lap.

    By the way you don't have to worry about progressive ideas disappearing. The one thing I've discovered in fifty years of observing and studying human history is that there is nothing so nearly immortal as a truly horribly bad idea

    There are always people willing to buy snake oil. It's easy to sell greed and stupidity to people who think someone owes them something for nothing.

    As opposed to the greed and stupidity of being convinced we’re all just temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

    Oh, you think the think the outspoken protection of the super rich isn’t greedy or stupid? I guess you’re right. They just want to make sure they have it as good when it’s their turn.
    You know how many people I hear cry about the taxes they’d have to pay if they ever won the lottery? They’ll be so upset when that happens, I’m sure.

    Nothing to do with protecting just not butchering the goose that lays the golden eggs. Your statement is the driving idea behind every entrepreneur.

    The golden goose could stand to lay an egg every once in a while if he wants to avoid being butchered.

    A trump presidency is evidence against. I'm sorry, but there has never been a less qualified man in the Oval Office. There was no analysis done to elect him, only raw stupid emotion.

    He's spot on, and you know it. Trumpetts have little in common with real conservatives. If you are a staunch defender, and lets be honest - every trumper here is, then YOU don't know what YOU believe. trump, a life-long dem, is all over the map.

    His claim was "Today's conservatives wake up not knowing what they believe as they await the next Trump tweetstorm." It is a dumb statement. I don't have to wait for Trump for anything to know what I believe.

    Look, the point was simple. trumpets defend trump no matter what and trump doesn't even know what he thinks therefore you don't know what you believe. The observation was spot on.

    Could you imagine if all but one network advocated for Trump? You would lose your marbles, but that's reality in reverse.

    No one knows what you're up against. There is finally a person in the Oval Office with the guts to finish the job Lincoln started to end the Progressive Plantation system. With the media, disinformation spread in progressive schools, and Hollywood continuing to spread Big Lies similar to those employed by the Nazis, it's going to be tough for Trump to get the backing from Republicans to finally end the reign of terror Progressives have waged against the most vulnerable in the country: Captives of Progressive in their urban and rural Plantations. While Progressives are fighting to keep their slaves down, the economy may finally close the book on their 200 years of fascist tyranny.

    We can only hope.
