What's sadder is they actually believed, and still do, that the voting base they've been duping and programming for 8 years was/is much larger than it actually is.the sad thing is they seem to believe their problem is messaging and a few stunts will turn the electorate back there way. maybe examine policies - the Rs shouldn't be hard to beat on policy but instead it's stunts
He also said recently in an interview when questioned about possible bad blood between him and Trump for all hte comments between the two is that it was just an election bid, and that's how they go and how they're fought. Said there's no bad blood.It remains difficult for me to accept seeing Rubio stand and applaud a guy he said was not fit to serve. I know it's reality of our politicians but it's a shame there's zero integrity among them. And that's left and right, Dem or GOP.
If you believe an everyday American leans more crazy left than center or right of center, you've been brain washed. TRends are showing hte left spectrum being vacated at an alarming rate for the governing loony left to have much hope in the near future. With every single day, they prove over and over they just think americans are stupid and clamoring for tote their bed pans.trumper does not = everyday American
Many anti-trumpers are everyday Americans just as many trumpers are everyday Americans.
But certainly not all of either group.
If you believe an "everyday American" is much more likely to be a trumper than not - then you've been brainwashed.
We need a wellness check on LG. STAT
Let me ask you, have you checked what the percentage of viewers was who were Democrats? I think if you dig a little deeper you will see why the numbers are tipping into the 70's.
Having said that, the Dems predictably handled this very poorly, especially with the not being willing to applaud folks who deserved it. I think it reflects the reason I dropped my party affiliation, and that is that the leadership of the Dem party is undisciplined and so caught up in being anti-Trump (which believe me, I get) that they can't help but maker a spectacle out of their disdain for him even when that spectacle boomerangs and makes them look bad.
They need to let the social issues go for the moment and focus on what worked last election cycle so well for the GOP, which is the economy. I heard so little from pre and post debate commentary about the tax cuts favoring the wealthy and just ephemeral, non specific talk of rising prices.
They need to get specific. They need to show projections of what the tariffs could cost, depending on how far the potential trade wars might go. They need to show proof that the back and forth on tariffs, having them for 48 hours and dropping them, how that wreaks havoc in the markets and makes us vulnerable. They need to show drops in value of 401k's caused by Trump's mania about economic policy.
Fact is, everyone at this point knows that Trump lies a lot and is prone to unjustified hyperbole, which often gets him into trouble. Its long past time to stomp your feet and yell that he's lying, its now time to show the effects of the lying on our daily lives.
Real talk: I have a very short fuse. I actively work on choosing love over hate, thinking good things about others, and I really try to not let someone push me to hate. It's exceedingly difficult but i really want to be the man who loves God and loves his neighbor.Have you ever had someone hate you so much that even good deeds or the slightest quip trigger them? It's glorious.
Thats the problem, he wants much more control of our lives through the federal government.Maybe one day you and your Dem friends will come to realize that the federal government is too big, too powerful and has too much effect on our daily lives. Maybe you'll join in the effort to Trump proof the country by neutering the federal government.
Yeah. That funding was cut back in December in the prior Admin. Same Congress.Political Theater.

'Devastating': DOGE cuts reportedly put cancer-stricken kindergartner's life at risk
A Michigan kindergartner's family is relying on experimental treatments and research courtesy of the National Institutes of Health to fight his extremely rare form of cancer — and that treatment could be up in the air amid cuts from tech billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government...www.rawstory.com
Bring up the kid with Cancer and give him an award. Really nice moment for the kid. He doesn't know that when these guys head back into the office, they vote and work to undermine the lifesaving care he needs.
Donald Trump can talk about this all he wants, but his actions show he doesn't give a damn about childhood cancer. Another person used as a political prop. See: Latinos, African-Americans, Cubans, LGBT, etc etc etc.
Is that why you are always so jovial with Luther?! lol.Real talk: I have a very short fuse.

I think people are surprised to learn that about me because I am also a joker. Maybe I compensate with humor to hide me seething rage which can ignite.![]()
