Trump’s menacing TV ad (did we pay for this w/ Federal funds?): Trump walks in a darkened hallway, saying “We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media, and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all.” WHO? Billionaires?MAGA?

Trump would do anything (including fomenting a murderous riot) to fix the fall elections.

HDReese: Trump “showed how desperate he has become. He pulled out all the stops to persuade the crowd to vote for his candidate. He threatened our allies, dismissed the cost of his war, and asked North Carolinians to pretend he was on the ballot so they would even show up to vote. “In this election,

What’s ICE for?

Troy Jackson (D-ME) running to replace Susan Collins in the Senate: “Being a leader doesn’t mean you’ve never been wrong. It means listening to the people you represent, having the humility to admit when you were wrong, and then using the power you have to do something about it.” He has my vote!

Yesterday we paid $4.15/gal for regular gasoline. Trump (who never drives himself or buys gas): “So remember that, when you have to pay a little bit more, you’re at $4, it’s okay. I mean, it’s, I’m not, I’m not. I will never apologize. I did the right thing.” No you didn’t, bud. You’re screwing us.

Do you mean Trump’s a lying liar? HCRichardson: “Trump’s insistence that he needs his new ballroom for security is bunk: the WH already has a secure, hardened facility that can withstand a nuclear blast and house dozens of people for weeks. It was built secretly during the Obama administration.”
