The Republican Party has been hollowed out like a Jack O'Lantern and the leering face carved into it is that of Donald J. Trump. They see themselves as above-the-law. Just a rogue political private security force under the rule of their Great Leader, serving only him and no longer the rule of law, their oath of office or the people they represent.

This weekend's music thread is about going off the rails, getting flagged for it and arriving at just desserts.

The 4th Democratic debate takes place tonight in Ohio and as usual, PlanetPOV will be hosting a live chat to accompany it. Everyone is invited to join in and share their thoughts throughout the debate.

John Lennon's birthday was this week so our music thread is dedicated to him and of course his band that changed everything, The Plastic Ono Band. Or The Beatles too.

The theme for this weekend’s music thread is about food (including im-peaches and just desserts) and drinks (that go down easy like Trump will).
