Watch the news orgs change their tune if Trump loses the majority. They're just holding their breath waiting. Until then, if they criticize the old fart he'll bring the might of the US government and his acid tongue down on them like a sledgehammer, and the GOP will just stand by and watch.

This tells you all you need to know about Donald Trump. It's pretty much his MO from way back in his days as a real estate rascal, now spilling over into his old age. Only these days he's not just screwing his poorer associates, he's doing it to you and me... and the world. [posted on ]

The old saying: "VOTE FOR THE LESSER OF THE TWO EVILS" Is more relevant than ever. The midterms are Democrats' big chance to turn the tide, but only if you come together with one simple message. "Congress will step up and do their job, concentrating like a laser on the economy!"

The (somewhat) good news: To reinstate the original findings, all a future EPA would have to do is issue a new rule. Normally there would be an Information Gathering Phase, but since the original rules were put in place in 2009, they can just be reinstated.
