Hey PPO!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Heh! It’s still welcome in any case!

AdLib 2 hours ago

How are things your way?

AdLib 2 hours ago

How’s your vision? And how’s Fergie?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Yes, apparently the big freeze on the East Coast is proof that there’s no Climate Change according to The Dumpster.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Damn! Really sorry to hear that!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hey glenn!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hi Harleigh!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Hope that’s the case, PPO.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Heh!

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – How cold is it there?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Yeow!

AdLib 2 hours ago

This is crazy! Record floods, fires and this may be record cold!

AdLib 2 hours ago

But it’s not Climate Change and we need more carbon in the atmosphere via coal.

AdLib 2 hours ago

So with Mar a Lago, would that be like Hell freezing over?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Trump is doomed in 2018 one way or another, would you agree?

AdLib 2 hours ago

Oh no, glenn, is your roof okay?

AdLib 2 hours ago

PPO – But don’t you think Dems will win the House in 2018 then they can impeach him?

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – A Dem won in AL. The popular vote isn’t controlled by the MSM. Dems are most likely to win in Nov.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Glad to hear that, glenn!

AdLib 2 hours ago

Harleigh, that’s great to hear. I would bet that we will see a Dem win of astounding proportions in Nov.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – I think that by the time the Mueller indictments come next year and people have another year of Trump’s madness, the election may very be a mandate on impeachment.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – I mentioned AL because it portends a national landslide for Dems even in red states and districts. Trump has already exhausted so many of support. He’s not going to get better, he’s only going to get worse as the noose tightens around his, Don Jr.’s and Kushner’s necks.

AdLib 2 hours ago

so many of his supporters…

AdLib 2 hours ago

If Dems take the House, and odds now look like they will, that kills all Trump bills. If they tale the Senate, it kills all his judicial appointments and terrible cabinet choices. And enthusiasm is naturally on the opposing party’s side in an off year election, it will be supercharged this upcoming year. Then in 2020, the tsunami will crest over Trump as it did over the Repubs in 2008.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Moore gives pedophiles a worse name.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – Maybe but it doesn’t matter, Repubs can whine about voter fraud but they will have lost power in many states and Congress. They should be called out as traitors to our democracy by Dems if they do. And giving aid and comfort to enemies of democracy like Putin.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Harleigh – Trump’s already lost 1/3 of his admin in 1 year and many major positions. The closest to that is like 16% by any other president. “I will only hire the best people…who will then see what a moron I am and quit.”

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – Absolutely, McConnell and Ryan are like Nazi officers that think they’re not to blame for atrocities because they were just being loyal to the party.

AdLib 2 hours ago

Harleigh – Exactly, with Dems winning more power in states in 2018 and 2020, the gerrymandering that has protected the undemocratic GOP majority will be lessened, it should wall them out for at least 10 years from having such a tilted playing field.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – There will have to be a lot of repair to our government after Trump but we can limit the damage by putting Dems in power in at least one house next year. A lot of rebuilding is ahead but it can and will be done.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – That is what is so disgusting and traitorous about the Repubs, they violate their ooath to protect the Constitution and put country over party. All of them could be impeached for this.

AdLib 2 hours ago

glenn – Some Dems may choosoe to be just as anti-democratic as Repubs have been but if they’re smart, they’ll take the opportunity while in power to do what we did in CA, pass a law that requires a bi-partisan board to always do the redistricting and protect that law by requiring a 2/3 majority to change it. If the playing field is permanently fair, Repubs will lose.

AdLib 2 hours ago

PPO – And wait until Ryan starts pushing cuts to Social Security, Medicare and welfare because…you know…the deficit is terrible…now that it’s $1.5 trillion bigger because of the tax fraud cut. Seniors will be vooting Repubs oout of every state in the country!

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – The upside of Dems taking The House is that it’s easier, they can begin REAL investigations and a 9/11 type panel to investigate Russia and Trump and they can impeach. You’re right abut the improtance of the Senate t block judges including for the SCOTUS, it’s possible but just harder to do because Dems have so many more seats up this year. But they could do it!

AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh, I think a lot of Trumpers like Don Jr. and Kushner think Daddy Trump will pardon them but NY AG Schneiderman has been working with Mueller and will nail them on state charges which Daddy can’t stop.

AdLib an hour ago

PPO – Make her a double covfefe!

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Repubs are kamikazes, they knw Dems are going to crush them next Nov so they are just grabbing all the silverware and jewelry on their way out. They are sick and criminal.

AdLib an hour ago

PPO – No kidding! 13 million people will now lose health insurance and everyone will pay 10% more…if they can afford it. And Susan Collins betrayed all thsoe people she claimed to care about! She needs to be taken out! I am sick of trying to trust any Repub!

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – I don’t know, I think cutting SS and Medicare are a bridge to far even for the immoral Repubs, much of their base are seniors and they already see the tsunami coming next year. McConnell has already said he won’t bring such bills up in the Senate, he wants to stay in power.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – So true, the natioon will be breathing a little easier with Dems being in power in one or both houses! The majority always prefers Congress to be a check on the WH, now more than ever!

AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – Yep, those racists and morns supporting Trump will be crushed the hardest but their dim minds won’t connect the two. This is why to them only, Trump is Teflon. He represents their rage, white superiority, male superiority and he always will. They are the lemmings that will ignorantly follow their leader off a cliff. I now see Trump’s core voters as the enemies of the majority, they shouldn’t be pursued to vote against him, they should be electorally flattened without hesitation by the majority like a steam roller.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – However, Ryan is the most unpopular Repub in office including Trump! His claIm of responsibility for this tax fraud will soon make him one of the most despised figures in American history. And his pursuit of cutting up the social safety net will fail in an electiion year and demonize him even more. He is an evil little beast.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Yep, McConnell sees this coming next Nov, he’s terrified f making it bigger:

AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – Yep, unfortunately, many people need to suffer greatly before they will begin to use their brain and stop voting against their own interests.

AdLib an hour ago

Harleigh – I think the poor people who support Trump are just so obsessed with his representing their racism and hatred. When they begin to really suffer, their ignorant and brainwashed enugh to find a way to blame Obama or Hillary for it. But they will know the truth deep down and while they’ll never admit it, they will not come out to vote Repub, their enthusiasm will be gone.

AdLib an hour ago

glenn – Yes, I think this is a case of accepting that those who have screwed-up thought processes can’t be influenced by sensible thoughts. Those still supporting Trump are delusional and in a mental bubble, they are lost and should be treated as the adversaries of our democracy that they are.

Night glenn, take care and Happy New Year!
