Hi Jenuwin! You’re in Nice?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hey FD!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Better than it is for Trump!

AdLib 2 hours ago

You?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hi glenn! Happy Bye-Bye-Bannon Day!

AdLib 2 hours ago

FD – Sure looks like everyone’s abandoning Trump, it’s all falling apart!

AdLib 2 hours ago

And he’s only in his 7h month!

AdLib 2 hours ago

I guess Donald Trump supports abortions.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hey Murph!

AdLib 2 hours ago

FD – Trump always does things better than anyone, especially failing!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Murph, but-but-but the stock market and the economy and unemployment, you know, things that someone only in office 7 months hasn’t affected.

AdLib 2 hours ago

For the first time, I actually think that Repubs could be convinced to impeach Trump…though only if Dems take the House first and begin impeachment.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Do we really want President Pence though?

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – Cult followers don’t use facts or reason to arrive at their beliefs so they can’t ever offer any.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – Trump is now caught in a crossfire and those around him will be abandoning him increasingly. He has Dems, Indies, more and more Repubs and now the Alt Right opposing him. This is already a failed presidency, Trump will g down as the biggest mistake voters have ever made…and they’ve made some whoppers (I’m lookin at you, GW Bush!).

AdLib an hour ago

FD – I suppoose you’re right. Pence will be horrible but Trump is a disaster. Still, Pence is a phony, lying piece of hateful garbage too.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Just to be contrary, if Trump stays in but is powerless, might that be better than a re-energized Congress and GOP?

AdLib an hour ago

Here’s the next monument to the Confederacy that needs to be taken down:

AdLib an hour ago

Murph – I decided to keep it PG. You can imagine the monument I’d design for Trump.

AdLib an hour ago

So can we finally tell all those people who thought Jared and Ivanka would rescue America from their sick father…to go back to chasing unicorns?

AdLib an hour ago

Does you think that Trump can get funding for his wall, tax reform and/or infrastructure passed now?

AdLib an hour ago

Do you think, that is!

AdLib an hour ago

Murph – I don’t know that the generals are providing cover for anyone other than Trump.

AdLib an hour ago

The Deb Ceiling has to be raised ASAP when Congress comes back. I wonder if it will be up to Dems to get it passed, Repubs seem incapable of saving thei contry fom a neo-Nazi President or any type of theat.

AdLib an hour ago

Murph – So do ou think Dems will agree to a big tax cut for the 1% just to get a smaller tax cut for the 99%?

AdLib an hour ago

Murph – I don’t know what passes they can really be guarding. Trump is not someone who actually gets things done aside from signing EOs.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – I’ve heard that Jared is just as unprincipled as Donald and European leaders called Ivanka empty headed.

AdLib an hour ago

Murph – I don’t know, Dems and Repubs will sign onto increasing defecits by billions to give modest tax cuts?

AdLib an hour ago

Sleep well, Murph!

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – I don’t think Congress will be able to agree on tax cuts…or an other big issue bills.

AdLib an hour ago

Repubs in The House will want huge taxcuts for corporations and the wealthy and little for the 99%. Don’t see how an agreement will ever happen.

AdLib an hour ago

FD – Yes, Ivanka and her “architecting your life” moronic blather.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Murph left early, he was very tired. He’s far more optimistic than I am. If they can’t even get repeal of the ACA passed, they’ll never get anything big passed. And the budget could be a huge mess!

AdLib an hour ago

The rotten apples don’t fall far from the rotted tree. Ivanka is just a rich white girl, Don Jr. and Eric are idiots, isn’t it sexist to look at Ivanka, who comes from the same gene pool, any differently?

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Yep, those single moms in poverty working two jobs and in difficult living condtions have plenty of mony to take a spa day.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – The Freedom Caucus (Baggers) in The House will fight against he deficit that giving the 99% tax cuts would cause. Repubs can’t even agree on repealing Obamacare.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – The Trump brats were all raised by nannies and brought up spoiled in their little bubbles. They have no concept of real life for 99% of Americans and from the start, I was always annoyed by the people who projected on IT and IT’s drone of a husband, that they were good people and would protect “us” from Trump. Trump’s given them so much of what they have, their spoiled brats, they’re not going to bite the hand that gropes them.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – True indeed. I think, especially in the mess that Bannon’s going to whip up and Trump’s further alienating people, nothing except the barest minimum will pass in Congress. Trump gets to go down in history as the biggest and quickest failure of a Nazi in the WH.

AdLib an hour ago

Thanks glenn!

AdLib an hour ago

Trump is planning a Klan rally…er…campaign rally next Tuesday in AZ. What do you think will happen?

AdLib an hour ago

PPO – I think that a wide majority of people in the US and around the world now assume everything Trump says is a lie.

AdLib 44 minutes ago

I used to be angry about Trump lying soo much, noot realizing that after so many months of it, everyoone would catch on and his words would become worthless.

AdLib 42 minutes ago

Hey Harleigh!

AdLib 42 minutes ago

Take care FD!

AdLib 42 minutes ago

PPO – At least Breitbart dooesn’t have nukes…yet.

AdLib 42 minutes ago

Dems can just kick back and watch Trump and Bannon destroy the GOP.

AdLib 41 minutes ago

Harleigh – Yep, Do you have a resume? If so, that disqualifies you.

AdLib 40 minutes ago

PPO – It’s easy after this week to forget about Mueller who is unearthing all the Trump skeletons and I think, will be indicting Trump and so many around him. And now, Trump can’t claim Executive Privilege to keep Bannon from testifying!

AdLib 38 minutes ago

glenn – Like Trump disbanded the advisory boards after they all quit?

AdLib 37 minutes ago

PPO – Yes, I read about that. Will there be a big purge?

AdLib 37 minutes ago

PPO – Yep, Bannon can be brought in to testify against Trump and Trump can’t stop him as he could if Bannon was still working for him.

AdLib 36 minutes ago

PPO – The High Court will ignore the law and just give them a pass?

AdLib 35 minutes ago

PPO – War is good for as much as Trump is good for…ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, SAY IT AGAIN!

AdLib 34 minutes ago

PPO – Maybe they’ll say it’s okay for those born in Australia? Otherwise, how do they skirt that law?

AdLib 33 minutes ago

Harleigh – Meanwhile, as Trump has the country wrapped up in his Nazism, Mueller is nailing down the case against Trump. He’s going down now, one way or another.

AdLib 32 minutes ago

PPO – They should but you know how conservatives always believe the law only applies to everyone else. Hope so.

AdLib 32 minutes ago

PPO – If they renounced it previously, they wouldn’t still be citizens.

AdLib 31 minutes ago

Harleigh – You mean he’s Putin the finishing touches on.

AdLib 30 minutes ago

I would love to see Jared in the pen! And Ivanka too, she can come up with designer prison wear!

AdLib 30 minutes ago

Harleigh…when even Ted Cruz can condemn Trump for racism, it’s gotten pretty bad for Trump. He is imploding and while it could be dangerous too, it’s what many thught would happen. His ghost writer said he thinks Trump will quit by the end of the year but I think he will only after Mueller indicts him.

AdLib 28 minutes ago

Really struggling to contort the law to do what they want.

AdLib 27 minutes ago

Harleigh – Which is why I wish Trump could be removed from office before the charges come down against everyone else. No pardons. I do think there is an issue about him pardoning without cause.

AdLib 26 minutes ago

PPO – Pence is competng with Trump for the tit of “Craziest MoFo in the WH!”.

AdLib 23 minutes ago

PPO – Yep, thats probably the case, the pardons are already written and ready.

AdLib 21 minutes ago

glenn – You say optimism, I say deluded liar. When it comes to Trump, they’re the same thing.

AdLib 19 minutes ago

I do wonder though if Repubs in Congress may lean towards impeaching Trump thinking Pence will help them where Tump has failed them?

AdLib 18 minutes ago

glenn – I know you were joking about “optimism”, just joking back with you!

AdLib 17 minutes ago

Harleigh – Yep, Pence is scary because he’s a religious nut but he alienated his own voters in his state, he’d do the same if he took Trump’s seat.

AdLib 15 minutes ago

glenn – Trump has refused to get involved in passing and promoting legislation. And he does 180s and attacks their bills after supporting them.

AdLib 14 minutes ago

Any man who calls his wife “Mother” and refuses to be in a room with a woman unless she’s there, is as mentally ill as a neo-nazi.

AdLib 13 minutes ago

Maybe Melania will come out and say Donald’s just been pretending to be a bully to illustrate what assholes cyber bullies are?

AdLib 11 minutes ago

Harleigh – Yes but one guy who’s not distracted is the guy who’s putting together indictments of Trump and his cronies.

AdLib 11 minutes ago

glenn – Trump is indeed a dog, like the little ones that bark the most but skitter away when a big dog barks back.

AdLib 9 minutes ago

glenn – That’s funny! I’d just add that most bullies just act the part and do so because it covers up what cowards they actually are.

AdLib 8 minutes ago

Trump has always been a coward, lying, never taking responsibility, running away from his crimes and his debts, settling and never going to court to actually fight. He won’t have a choice though with Mueller.

AdLib 7 minutes ago

glenn – Agreed, Trump would be just another troll on Breitbart.

AdLib 7 minutes ago

glenn – I think we’ll have to wait until after the first of the year. This is a very wide and complex web of deceit and criminality he’s investigating, over decades of Trumps crimes. So much to track down and testimony to get then piece it all together. But when he comes out with the indictments, it will be devastating. Trump has already admitted to obstructing justice, Kushner, Manafort and Flynn have admitted to perjury n their forms, Don Jr. has admitted to colluding wih the Russians…and so much more is going to come ut.

AdLib 3 minutes ago

Whoops! glenn left before I replied!

AdLib 3 minutes ago

PPO – Trump has stripped his gears.

AdLib 2 minutes ago

Thanks, you too PPO!
