(779 posts)That Roger Stone seems to be telling everyone that he will not talk about Trump. He also seems to be whining that no-one has contacted him to talk about Trump.Poor baby, does he just want attention?

(8,709 posts)Your words are music to my ears. The key word to me is learned. But there is definitely amnesia associated with supremacy. Already in the midst of this horrible presidency, and here on DU in the past 2 weeks, there was an OP about the innocence of red state voters who didn't know what they were doing when the exact opposite has been proven to be the case. We gotta take our knowledge and repeatedly drive it home in our lives and in voting because forgetting will lead in another 30-50 years to the next monstrous man-baby.
