You know its bad (unless you have dementia, narcissistic superiority, or a combination of the two) when your lowest Gallup poll ever is compared to other Republican President’s & you scored just slightly better than Nixon a year before he had to resign or face impeachment.
CNN screen with GOP pres Net Approval at this point-2nd term Gallup: Reagan was +41 pts; Eisenhower was +31 pts; W. Bush was -19 pts; Trump is -24 pts (lost 23 points since January); and Nixonv-36 pts.

🚨Trump and Republicans are pushing a bill that would gut Medicaid and SNAP for Veterans who rely on them to survive. We didn’t serve this country to be abandoned. 📞 Call your Senator: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO. #VoteNO

Even the GOP admit that this bill is a full-on assault on the most vulnerable. Medicaid cuts, SNAP cuts, and gutting rural hospitals, all to give tax breaks to the wealthy! It's time to #VoteNo and stand up for working people.

🚨PLEASE READ and REPOST (1 of 2) Brennan Center for Justice: The Constitution gives Congress, not the president, the power to raise, support, and regulate the military and to declare war. Presidents have overread their power to take the nation to war and have violated civil liberties in wartime.

Presidents have overread their power to take the nation to war and have violated civil liberties in wartime. We’re working to rein in overbroad war authorities.

Donald Trump illegally took military action against Iran—without congressional authorization—risking dragging us into another endless war. I am calling for an immediate emergency session of Congress to vote on the War Powers Resolution.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

Masked agents in unmarked cars disappearing people from the street and shipping them to a dictator’s prison. Executive branch officials blowing off federal court orders, wrestling members of Congress to the ground and handcuffing them for asking a question. Smells like fascism.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Joni Ernst is my senator and after her disgusting “We’re all going to die” remark, I decided to email her a letter using @resist.bot. Trust me when I say that I was as diplomatic as I could possibly be given her disgusting attitude. She is truly a horrible person.
Below is my email to Joni Ernst: 

Tax cuts for billionaires do nothing to help your lowa constituents and Trump's tax scam bill is a slap in the face to hardworking lowans. Your recent response to an audience member concerned about the proposed Medicaid cuts - "We're all going to die" - was disgraceful. It was callous and showed just how out of touch with reality you and the MAGA Republican Party are when it comes to the issues. While you and your colleagues enjoy your free government sponsored healthcare, you're all perfectly fine taking healthcare away from the American people. Cutting the benefits of working people to allow the rich to get even richer is shameful. I'm just wondering how you folks sleep at night knowing that the bill you're supporting is hurting your constituents? Do you even care that children will go hungry and without healthcare people will die? It seems like the Republican Party has only one agenda and that is to curry favor with the convicted felon who is masquerading as our president.
Your party is ruining this country and you all deserve to be voted out in the midterm elections. I hope the American people wake up before it's too late.

I’m no lawyer, but if a president doesn’t support the Constitution, then maybe he should just run for mayor instead. We’ve got a country to run, not a guessing game about the rules. If a president’s not sure if he’s supposed to support it, maybe it’s time we put the ‘fine print’ in big bold letters.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
