they probably learned it from the democrats....

sounds like he was actually concerned that there would be riots...not necessarily encouraging it...but I'm sure you will spin it a certain way

"If they tried to prosecute President Trump for mishandling classified information after Hillary Clinton set up a server in her basement there literally will be riots in the street," he said. "I worry about the country." LG

weren't we told during the long summer of love that....."this is what democracy looks like"?

I'm sure the Muppet-In-Chief won't be too divisive on Thursday night

Clinton was a govt employee w/clearance communicating with other people w/clearance. 5 documents. Not charged w/ violating the espionage act or obstruction. Fully cooperated-no need for a search warrant.

If you believe what she did was wrong, then Trump is a no-brainer.

By overturning Roe, the GOP lost all their one-issue voters who didn't really like what they stood for but are pro-life. Lost that whole base overnight instead of fundraising off an unfulfilled promise for another 40 years, and lit a fire under Dems.

Ann Coulter just put out an article saying “Trump is done.” Laura Ingraham said it’s time to “move on” from Trump. Ben Shapiro said Republicans need to stop “talking about Trump.” The establishment is turning on him before his indictment. Rats scurrying off the sinking MAGAt ship.

Google. “Recession”…..it’s not pretty out there. I think Brandon has a great shot at beating his lowest presidential approval rating of all time mark


“The stock market is plunging and the Fed is giving up on a ‘soft landing’ in favor of a ‘growth recession.’ Buckle up
“It’s a bit like dripping water torture,” KPMG chief economist Diane Swonk told Bloomberg. Meanwhile, LPL's Jeffrey Roach told Fortune that "the Fed is in a tough spot."

Scott warns us the democrats are in trouble you can take that to the bank. I wouldn’t bet your life on it, the recession was coming, or at least the impacts of two years of Covid no matter what party took control. In control Biden is governing, passing impactful bills and the other party is wondering what the fu*k they are going to do now that Trump is possibly now not the party leader. I guess all the concern reported by the GOP haven’t been briefed by you, get on it.

Republicans Blame Ranked-Choice Voting for Sarah Palin Loss: 'A Scam'

classic republicans no respect for the voters

New Election System
In the 2020 General Election, voters approved an initiative to establish a Nonpartisan Pick One Primary Election system and a Ranked Choice Voting General Election system.

"Ranked-choice voting is a scam to rig elections," Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton tweeted on election night. "60 percent of Alaska voters voted for a Republican

tom should read up a bit more on how it works



only republicans would be afraid "Requiring a candidate to get more than 50 percent to be elected isn't a scam; it's sensible. Let's get ranked-choice voting everywhere."

[PaulS]

Cotton is sort of right. However gets the most votes in an election should win.

That how it works. you can’t win with less than 50% of the vote. If you have more than 2 people running for the same office

So in the end the person with the most votes win

Texas judge rules coverage of anti-HIV medicine violates religious freedom

The ruling from U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor partially resolves a lawsuit brought by Braidwood Management Inc., a Christian for-profit corporation owned by Republican mega-donor Steven Hotze that employs about 70 people.

Hotze claimed that forcing his company to cover pre-exposure prophylaxis drugs, more commonly known as PrEP, under the Affordable Care Act would make the company “facilitate and encourage homosexual behavior.”

Don Bolduc: Republicans fret over 'too Trumpy' New Hampshire primary candidate

Lindsey Graham took a flamethrower to every carefully crafted Republican narrative designed to fool voters about their intentions on abortion. The American people can now see very clearly what they intend to do.

Between row, the continued denial of the election results, you would think smart republicans wouldn’t give democrats more reasons to turn out to vote, but in Plymouth this MAGA nut adds to our incentive with a new banner every other week.

The "thugs and tyrants" attacking the MAGA movement have awakened a "sleeping giant," former President Donald Trump told his Save America rally in Youngstown, Ohio, on Saturday night, stumping for J.D. Vance, Rep. Jim Jordan, Max Miller, and others.

So now Trump is quoting our enemies from WW2

Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, who planned the attack on Pearl Harbor

Such leadership
