Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order. Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

Trump's grand spectacle of nonsense is precisely achieving the objectives he set out to accomplish. Isn’t it about time that Americans woke up and realized what’s happening? It seems like Republicans might just be the most misguided folks on the planet.

If the Fed has to raise rates this week, it will be due solely to the foreign and domestic policy of Trump and the Republican Party. They will, as always, lash out at others and attempt to shift blame. But it is a straight line between their policies and rates rising.
