Giving Democrats hell.

I have it on,silenced because I want to hear Sherrod Brown.

then show the repugs stating they know he was guilty, show the constitution, then show the Russian repug voting not guilty. McSally, Tillis, Gardner now own every single thing he does and Dems should tie those concrete galoshes to them quite firmly. Let the nation see what treacherous, anti-constitution and pro-dictator these asses are, show it constantly.

Show drumpf saying he wants to look at cutting Medicare and Social Security because "the people" are making so much money, they don't need it anymore, then show him lying at rallies, highlight what he's actually doing in court and ask if they trust their lives to someone who only cares about helping rich and rich corporations and constantly hurts the working class. Show often and glaringly the number of people who have lost healthcare due to repug treachery, then show how the Dem will increase coverage.

Carrot and stick - both must be used, IMO to have a winning message.

beat them at their own game. It's how you handle a bully...

I admire you trying to stay positive, but the entire Republican party and voters are the absolute and complete antithesis of logic, rational thought, reason or cognitive thinking.

THEY all are convinced WE are trying to 'overthrow' the gov't ???????!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL Everything they think/say is 180 degrees from reality/truth.......

I read an article, I think it was in NEWSWEEK that said the 24/7 viewing of FOX news for more than a decade, has basically brain washed them.......that and conservative talk radio. They don't watch or listen to anything else, so they have heard the same BS over and over again for over a decade.........Repetition of lies, over and over works, just ask Mussolini and Hitler, and the 1000 religious followers that quite literally "drank the kool aid".......

Some where else on DU this morning, some great person, posted that: what other party, would allow a rapist, to have his porn star photo wife give America's highest civilian medal to a drug addict. ON NATIONAL TV!!! THAT IS the REPUBLICAN PARTY, et al
And the entire Republican legislative branch cheered him on and gave him a standing ovation.....!!!!!

It is truly like we are living in another universe, something akin to the TWILIGHT ZONE and can't escape like a horrific nightmare that we can't wake up from........

An old guy said to me the other day that he was glad he was old. I said: Why? you hurt all the time, always trying to figure a way pay your medical bills and prescriptions etc etc etc. He replied: I'm glad I'm old because I am going to be gone when this shit storm really hits the fan.........AND HE WAS AN OLD STYLE REPUBLICAN........ A F***ing sad comment, don't you think.

During the W admin, I worried about my kids.......now I am worried about them, their kids and their kids...this is truly cataclysmic...

The Republicans are one millimeter away from completing a total coup, we are soon to be a Fascist Tyranny run by a totally self serving Dictator and authoritarian political party. Bend over americans. The one consolation, if there is one, is that the Republican Voters are too brainwashed to know that their beloved Republican party is going to shove it up THEIR collective butts as well as ours.

They tried to fight the state and failed because the right wing fascists were too strong and common sense and decency too weak in the face of a total deranged asshole. I always have thought they should have left and have admired people who did leave to take their money away from the fascist and keep their families safe. If my children were little, I'd go in a heartbeat, but they are adults and have decent jobs and don't want to leave here. I'd miss them so much! We aren't rich, but we do own our house free and clear, so could probably swing it with downsizing a lot. We have good friends in NZ who want us to come live there, and it's almost perfect - except it's soooo freaking far awayl

I'm not bailing yet, think there's one more effort to be made. Soon as my health is good enough, I will be returning to my volunteer position with the Fl Democratic party and work hard to affect the results here and bring out Dem voters & anti-drumpf voters in my district and throughout the county. I just am depressed and thinking about the need for a backup plan.

We saw how little the German people were able to do. They all were defenseless to watch him exterminate over six million of their citizens and couldn't rise up to stop him. They are already rounding up anyone who isn't white, what group is next? Gays? and then what other U.S. citizens will they try to obliterate? Democrats?????

I am in the same situation with my Kids and grand kids. They can't go anywhere and neither can we.....
I told my kid that my biggest mistake was not going to Canada on February 4th, 1969 when I got my draft notice in the mail.
I had all my bags already packed and was ready to go that morning the mail delivered my draft notice........What Eisenhower called the giant "Military Industrial Complex" was on a roll......they cost Americans 58K soldiers lives so that they could make a fortune in arms and war equipment sales. To say nothing of the hundreds of thousands of our young men and women that were maimed and left handicapped for life..............And it is still happening.........

Something to think about: Them trashing the stock market and financial markets. The baby boomers and retired, having their nest egg trashed over night. Immediate result, the 1% at the upper-upper class, and the entire rest of the nation now in the lower-lower class.
Scary thought, huh......The 1% already have all their money off shored in the Caymans, the majority of the holdings in the stock market are all our retirement funds...............Many of the 1% are already moving to other countries and have been for the past two years according to the IRS........

Depressing, huh. WASF

is what is happening and that is people standing up and yelling and working to make a change.

To just sit back and accept defeat is not acceptable.

This country has overcome worse than Trump. We will overcome him.

I have been yelling at the top of my lungs since the first year of Reagan/Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld about what I was seeing them doing.
The so-called Reagan Democrats and everyone else told me to get off my soap box and quit worrying, Reagan was great!
I said that it was Treason what the Reagan Administration did with the Iran hostages and the arms sales to Iran (our enemy) to influence their win over Carter..........Then came the contra debacle, and on and on and on and on.

First came Reagan, then came HW, Then came W.

The same exact crowd was running each of these administrations.....HW & W/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Wolfowitz/Pearl/et al.........The tempo of my critical demeanor picked up with each new administration when I saw what they were doing/creating.

If a book title hadn't already used it, you could write a book with the title: WHILE THE NATION SLEPT..........

So, after 40 years, especially the past three years where EVERYONE in the nation got a first hand, in their faces, look at what was being done and just went on about their own lives, with the exception of the 2018 election, I am indeed somewhat negative............

I will not apologize for being negative and critical........We are millimeters away from a complete coup and will soon be in a Corporate controlled Fascist Tyranny................

By the way, have you listened to any of James Carville's rants the past two days???????????? Maybe you should...I think it's Apple news that has an interview with him..............

then why should we try at all? I feel like we are at the end, (or the beginning) of a culture of evil that too many people ignored. But we can't just ignore it some more without disastrous results.

It cannot be too little to late. There has to be a way out of this. I will do my part and I know others are going to do their part. And I think many more will join because of how awful it has gotten. And I have to have faith that it will eventually turn around. Otherwise I'd quit!

That's all.

It is painfully obvious that they now feel (justifiably) that they can do any thing they F***ing want, legal or illegal...............

The tsunami of crap is coming, just wait a few days. (actually it has already started) Trump & Repubs are on a roll now, completely emboldened with no reservation or hesitations.......and it will only gain momentum every week from here on.......

Turn on the news......Remember the Nixon Saturday Night Massacre?????? they are calling what Trump is doing today/tonight the Trump Friday Night massacre......

Yesterday, Barr declared that NO ONE in the entire DOJ can even BEGIN an investigation with out his personal approval. (The FBI is under the Dept of Justice also)

He & Barr are rumored to be getting ready to bury Biden & Son with subpoenas, trials and hearings to take him out of the race.
He & Barr are rumored to be getting ready to rain down the Wrath of Hell, in the form of criminal charges on the large group that made the impeachment happen........including Adam Schiff........
ETC ETC ETC

Forget about the election, last year, they already castrated the Federal Election Commission, it is an absolute nothing agency now. There were three Federal groups investigating campaign election fraud, and Mitch defunded all of them months ago, so they are gone. And this impeachment proved that a president can solicit anything and everything he wants from any and all foreign governments to aid in his election..........

My only hope left is the Military Generals and intelligence community pull a military coup and escorts THEM ALL, starting with Trump, out of Washington and down to Gitmo for being treasonous domestic terrorist and agents of an enemy government............This would include Trump, Pence, all Republican Senators, DOJ Barr, two supreme court justices, hundreds of federal judges they have installed, and so on.........

That whole dog and pony show was an outrage to say the least.
