📌You can vote with the party which doesn't do every single thing you want, or you can vote with the party that never wants you voting again, and has fallen at the fat, little feet of a lunatic wannabe king, who is poisoning our air & water & turning our WH into a golden whorehouse. Up to you.

I'm never going to get over the fact that the president of the United States paid a woman more than $5 million after a jury found him liable for raping her. And he's still president. And people still support him. Never. Get. Over. It.

This a disgusting abomination. Republicans are going to make hard-working, law abiding taxpayers pay off the thugs and criminals who beat cops on J6 and were convicted of various other crimes. Vote every Republican out of office this Nov. abcnews.com/US/trump-poi...

Don't call it "expanding" SCOTUS. And, for God's sake, don't call it "court-packing." Call it **right-sizing** the Court. (There are 13 circuits now -- not the 9 circuits there were when it was set at 9 justices 157 effing yrs ago!) Or call it *modernizing* the Court. Thank you.

I can’t get over this. Trump bailed out Argentina farmers with $20 billion of our tax dollars, then China turned around and bought soybeans from them instead of US farmers. Not AMERICA FIRST, America got played.

Two of the three states with the largest population of people in the U.S. illegally are the red states of Texas and Florida. Trump, notably, does not name their cities when calling on ICE to execute more aggressive immigration raids. He does, however, name LA, Chicago and New York.

One of the Democrats' biggest problems is credibility. Trump has ethos (that's how con men succeed) and the Democrats don't. That's because Democrats are seen as poll-watchers who don't stand for anything. You don't overcome that problem by watching more polls.

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison. It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.
