jakeem Posted June 19 Bill KristolVerified account@BillKristol There's often little we citizens can do to affect the behavior of a president. But the prospect of Trump's spoiling the celebration of July 4th in Washington is infuriating. It's our holiday not his. Why should we sit back and let him disfigure it? Let's save #AnAmericanFourth!

The enthusiasm across the country for this President is unmatched and unlike anything we’ve ever seen! #trump2020 #KeepAmericaGreat That explains his sky high poll approval numbers. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe when a volcanic eruption blocks out the sunlight and solar can no longer generate electricity. Most of the remaining coal plants are expected to close. I will EXPECT global temperatures to be a comfy 78 degrees, hurricanes /typhoons /cyclones cease to form, tornadoes a distant memory, droughts no more afterwards. Progressives / trendies will hold hands and sing Kumbaya shouting success, global warming is gone Yeah, RIGHT! Tell that to Miami Beach and Manhattan.

Arturo Posted June 19 2 hours ago, NipkowDisc said: look at those images of a very angry, angry schtootz. he's so angry. what is Danny Glover so angry about? his Hollywood wealth? that in itself is unbelievable hypocrisy. cory booker has such impressive scholastic credentials and yet cannot muster the dispassion necessary to not turn off the general public with behavior like that? pathetic. What IS PATHETIC is Donald Trump, angrily riling up the Deplorables' anger at his rallies. HE has nothing to be angry about, but he uses possibly legitimate anger of theirs for his own gain. They are so brain-dead they don't realize they would be directing their anger AT HIM, if they knew the truth about what he has done/not done in his presidency thus far. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakeem Posted June 19 Manu RajuVerified account @mkraju Pelosi this morning said that the House should not open an inquiry into the President “unless you’re ready to impeach.” She said the Senate would need to understand that senators either “honor their oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakeem Posted June 19 John DeanVerified account@JohnWDean John Dean Retweeted George Conway Actually, it’s like the petit jury is already seated, and has announced if they indict we have already decided we will not convict — just want you to know. Maybe it would be better to remove both the guy they won’t convict and the petit jury, at the polls, be done with it all! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
