Interesting that you bring up Mike Pence and 06 January.I have to have faith that our democratic institutions are too strong and resilient to let one man overcome them. Trump came close on 1/6, but in a sense that prepared everyone now of what to watch out for if he were to win again and I imagine everyone, even Republicans in executive and legislative positions, will be on the alert for him grossly overreaching a proper exercise of Presidential power.
Vance is a bit of a wild card. I wish he had the stones to say that Pence did the right thing, and it worries me he won't just say that and move on. But hopefully if push came to shove (perhaps quite literally) he would stand up to Trump, as Pence did, and protect the republic.
You need to be unburdened by what has been. Come on, you know what I am talking about.what happens when one man's rancid, rotten inside gets what it wants, and craves. Power. The worst leaders need yes men. Never forget in 2016, when someone told me about this amazing person, not a politician, an outside the box thinker. Business Genius, that I should read 'Art of the Deal.' So, I did.
Made it about 100 pages in. I kept laughing thinking, 'ok, this has to be going somewhere soon.'
Nope.
It was after he talked about ties to Kremlin. And openly bragging about abusing contractors, and picking the interior decorating out that it occurred to me. This man's ego will never be satiated. It will always be him first. Truly, has no political ideology, its only about public admiration. It stops and starts with 'he, I, me.'
I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that the smart people support Harris.
But Trump has catturd and Ted Nugent. So that kinda counterbalances things.
Wow. I don’t appreciate how you are exploiting my sister’s death for politics- hurtful & disrespectful to the important changes she made for service members. President Donald Trump did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today.
