‘COVID lockdowns hurt Dems’ does nobody know who was President in 2020? One would think that Trump’s first term was only 3 years and Biden and the Dems ran the country for a year before they were sworn in in January 2021.

Mine was a 1951 Chevy Fleetline, called a ‘Fastback’. My Dad let me drive it as if it were mine when I got my license in 1960. It was a little beat up but for me it was great. www.classicautomall.com/vehicles/188...
Unless they keep the Guard there for years, train them in policing, put them in the areas where crime is occurring and provide funding to alleviate some of the conditions causing crime, it will be a 2 or 3 month show. And a show Ds must oppose because it is ‘Democracy Porn’ at its most vile.

Well, thank goodness Trump is President because if Harris was President this would be all the news all the time. /s
Let’s settle or differences after we take power not before. 2026 is too important not to back all D candidates
I like it but Ds need to add that in 2026 all Ds need to suck it up and vote for all D. candidates. Period. Fight for your candidates in the primaries but stop the ‘circular firing squad’ of dissing the candidate after they have been chosen because they don’t agree with all your issues.
The mirror and the stairs tell all you need to know about Trump.
Absolutely, I would love to hear what they thought of this photo opt. But I think their expressions tell it all.
As Nancy observed ‘it’s like herding cats’ and Obama warning “(We) start shooting at our allies because one of them is straying from purity on the issues,"
I wish we had our own set of ‘Koch Brothers’ who almost single handed developed the current day Tea Party MAGA Republican Party through multiple faux PACs, faux 501c3 Corps, etc. But the diversity and the ‘one issue’ Ds within the D. Party makes it difficult to develop something like this.
Standard Operating Procedure for Rs for the past 60 yrs. Close polling places, move them, reduce the number of voting booths, reduce staffing, voting hours all in areas that tend to vote Democratic. As Paul Weyrich, co-founder of the Heritage Foundation said in 1980 ‘We don’t want everyone to vote.’
And, OWS had nothing to do with the development of the vaccines. Pfizer and Moderna started human trials in March and April 2020. OWS announced May 15, 2020 Basically, all OWS did was guarantee that Government would pay for it. The vaccines are based on GOV. funding research starting in the 1970’s
1. Creating 27m jobs vs the 3m Rs lost 2. The PP&ACA 3. Stopping a Great Depression 4. Saving the Auto-Industry 5. Stabilizing the Financial Sector 6. Leading us out of the pandemic creating an economy that was the envy of the world I’ll stick with and support Ds over Rs always
Is that all you do is criticize when not warranted and change the question when presented with facts First it was no Ds support these things Then a few do Then it’s ‘something they have to do first’ Ds have done great things with little to no support from Rs this century.
Green energy: Obama and Biden both passed record investments in green energy in their first years. Your list has been part of the Ds agenda for decades but we haven’t been in position to do so because for the past 60 years or so we’ve have had to fix the crises the Republicans have handled us
2020 Democratic Platform; “Achieving Universal, Affordable, Quality Health Care” Hillary ran a task force whose goal was to come up with a plan to provide universal health care (1994) Student Debt Forgiveness: see Biden’s presidency Nancy passed min. wage increase in 116 &117 Congress
Sure they do, what don’t Dems support on your list?
Oh gosh, just exactly what almost all Dems have run on time and time again. Things that when asked about each item, the majority of people agree on. But Dems have a history of not voting for a Democratic candidates if that candidate doesn’t support the one issue the voter does.
How do you suggest Dems talk about the thousands of things Trump has done in the first 7 months and keep the media and public attention on it, when the media will be reporting the 10 illegal, immoral, things he has done today?
Just like we have plans to release the Epstein files just as soon as we evaluate what can be safely released in order make sure Trump is safely out of it.
Perhaps He's had a stroke and they are working on how to blame Biden/Harris/Obama/Schiff/BLM/Antifa/Immigrants/illegals/LBGTQ+/WOKE/CRT/Blacks/Browns/Universities/CDC/Medicaid/ Cracker Barrel/Fauci/James/Smith/Bragg/Hillary/Comey/Nancy/ liberals/Dems and 2020 voter fraud all at the same time.
Tea party MAGA Republicans will always blame whatever the killer ‘is’ rather than what the killer used. If it is a white male, and then it’s mental health issues. If the killer is black or trans, or immigrant or lesbian or any combination, it’s because the killer was black, trans, immigrant…
And just think, these are the guys telling us how we should raise our boys.
They are just following in their master’s footsteps: A number of studies, one in The Lancet, concluded that Trump’s response to the pandemic resulted in the unnecessary deaths of between 200,000 and 400,000 Americans alone.
3 Honoring Our PACT Act, Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act, and Respect for Marriage Act And handed Trump an economy that was the envy of the world And what you wanted, Could they have passed the filibuster? Should Biden & Ds not focused the pandemic for your wants
2 Biden and Ds did that and led us to the best recovery from the pandemic of any country in the world. And passed: The Inflation Reduction Act, American Rescue Plan Act, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Postal Service Reform Act, Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, CHIPS and Science Act,
This is the problem Ds have. Expecting Ds to do everything ‘when they full control’ Well, they never had full control. The Senate was 48D/2I/50R and the House Ds could only lose 4 votes We were in the throes of a Global Pandemic with no plans in place on how distribute the vaccines. 1
I agree. And it astonishes me that the Tea Party MAGA Republicans treated COVID as nothing but a bad case of flu even though more Americans died from COVID than tour combined military deaths in all the wars we have fought including the Civil War.
Do we really want a discussion on ‘Slavery: Good or Bad’? Well, here is the answer: youtu.be/l8AWKAhw86Y?...
Why does this not surprise me. What’s next? Check out the new exhibit at the Smithsonian dedicated to the ‘Lost Cause’ and brought to you by the United Daughters of the Confederacy.
Well, Trump has a big lead on them as studies, one in The Lancet, conclude that Trump’s response to the pandemic resulted in the unnecessary deaths of between 200,000 and 400,000 Americans alone. Since Trump put them in positions to do harm, he deserves some credit for their death tolls.
Only 200 days for a white man to learn the job but a black woman with 1,462 days of on the job training didn’t know it. Right JD?
8 vacation in 200 days is certainly good training to emulate Trump who vacations every weekend.
What he is referring to is Schumer blocking Trump nominees: “John Thune on Thursday accused Democrats of deciding “to slow-walk every single civilian nomination from the President.” Trump told Schumer ‘to hell’ over it. He is doing what he can in the Senate but he has little power to stop this.
I’m thinking about it but don’t see how the ‘threat’ would be taken seriously without some examples and the outcomes must be specific. Is it for Trump to removed from office by resignation, impeached & conviction or the 25th Amendment?
Remember how Trump and his Administration had no plans on how to distribute and get these vaccines in people’s arms? Yep. Remember how Biden the Ds did it and vaccinated 240 million Americans helping stop the pandemic? Yep. Remember how the well people rewarded Ds for this accomplishment? Nope.
And what do you mean by a ‘general strike’?
Who are your D Senator(s) and your D Representative? I don’t have any, but I see a number of D Senators and Representatives doing what they can in Congress, which is limited and I’m glad to see more of the D governors and candidates stepping in up.
Who asked such an asinine question and who is making those calls to the FBI and how do you know about them?
Prayer has never brought any of the children killed in school shootings back to life, and to my knowledge prayer has never stopped one either. Then, what about a the ‘power of prayer’ in these situations?
I don’t think so. I never seen such activity from Ds in along time. From marches, rallies, speeches, lawsuits, fighting gerrymandering, social media presence, blocking Trump’s judicial nominees, etc. Just what else do you want?
When he says ‘other urban areas’ he means Blue states and any city run by Democratic mayors
“And we can’t dispense the flu vaccine because we have no guidelines’
My Pharmacist said when I asked about the Covid vaccine: ‘Because of the situation with the FDA/CDC, the firing of the boards, etc, we don’t have any Covid vaccine as the 24/25 vaccine is no longer available, & until the 25/26 version is approved with guidelines, we can’t get it to dispense.’
Ds impeached Trump twice. That Rs in the Sen. did not convict is not the fault of Dems. Indicted Trump on the Docs and J6. That the MAGA Justices on the SCOTUS gave him immunity, is not the fault of Ds. Colorado removed Trump from the Ballot, but the SCOTUS ruled that only Congress could do that.
No, BiBi, the Likud Party, the Israeli Government and the Israeli people did that. Why blame people who had no responsibility over what you are so passionate about. It like blaming Ds for all the things Trump and the Yea Party MAGA Republicans have done. Which does nothing but hurt Ds
What’s wrong with Matthew Miller?
Who are you talking about?
Why doesn’t Trump send them into the neighborhoods where the most crime in DC is being committed?
At least he didn’t say ‘…in the next two weeks’.
Not yet.
I wonder if anyone in the Tea Party MAGA Republican Party across the south, the mid-west and the mountain-west states will ever hear these asinine statements from Trump.
This is on Tea Party MAGA Republicans and Trump. Ds have little power to do anything other than file suits against the government and speak out about it. Unfortunately, this doesn’t break the top 25 things that this administration has done that need addressing and there will be more tomorrow.
One of the problems with trying to craft a Democratic Party message about this is that there are a lot of Ds who like this ‘war on crime’ and wish Biden had rolled out the troops for this and border security. Bernie even agrees with Trump’s investment in Intel.
Well Harris told us Trump was going to do this but did anyone listen? No, they whined about her voice.
But Garland was not confirmed and sworn in until March 11, 2021. Robert Montague "Monty" Wilkinson was the acting AG from 1/21/21 to 3/11/21
As LBJ said: “If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.” Trump does a version of this day-in-day-out.
In my opinion, Trump and the Tea Party MAGA Republicans are headed towards both Fascism and Communism. They are becoming what they have called Democrats for decades. We’ve all heard Trump, and MAGA politicians say ‘Dems are fascist, communist’ in the same sentence.
Agree, but that has been going on forever and too vague to waste much time or effort on it other than the efforts to make voting easier for everyone and to stop Republican’s efforts to suppress voting as they do all the time.
Yes, I would have liked a trial as well but it was never going to happen because of the SCOTUS
If you weren’t convinced by your own eyes and ears of Trump’s Coup we watched on J6 or the J6 Committee investigation which was covered live, then a court case would not convince you either. The J6 witnesses were sworn in and almost all of them were Rs who worked for Trump or his administration.
Yes he did fire her. You can find the termination letter here: www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/le...
The J6 Committee laid out all the evidence needed live to the American people. Their 800+ page report does as well.
Democrats impeached Trump twice. The fact that Senate Republicans failed to convict is not Garland’s fault. The fact that the MAGA members of the SCOTUS granted Trump immunity is not Garland’s fault. Let’s don’t blame Ds or Garland, but put the blame on Tea Party MAGA Republicans.
And Pete Hegseth lines his suit with the flag.
Dems have got to start doing , especially after we choose our candidate, what Jesse Jackson said in his 1988 speech at the Democratic National Convention. “Patchwork Quilt” m.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw0A...
Dems didn’t put Trump in power. Put the blame on Rs where it belongs.
No, D leadership didn’t get us into this. Republicans got us into it. But we greased the way by not fully backing our candidates. We need to do what Texas Paul has advocated. Work hard for the person you like in the primaries but once the candidate is chosen, back that candidate 100%.
Ds need a Newt/Luntz team who in the 1990s sent training tapes to R politicians teaching them to speak about Ds in demeaning and derogatory language. Luntz helped craft many of Rs lines. Eliminate estate taxes becomes ‘eliminate death taxes’; the PP&ACA becomes ‘Government takeover of healthcare’.
When have Ds used it to mean “white working families”?
What are you talking about? Truth is not propaganda
- passed record investment in infrastructure, manufacturing, clean energy, CHIPS, etc with most of the money going where needed to the red states - passed the PP&ACA - vaccinated 240 million Americans - pulled us out of the global pandemic and gave Trump that was the ‘envy of them World
Just about every thing Ds pass, policies adopted, issues raised help workers and families. This Century Ds: - saved U.S. from a Great Recession - saved the auto industry - stabilize the financial system - passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
Dems should use this because they are the party of working families. From 1976 to 2024, 50 years, Republicans created 17 million jobs. Democrats created 60 million jobs. In other words, Ds created 3.5 times as many jobs than Rs Also, 10 of the last 11 recessions started under Republicans
“The Treaty of Versailles ended World War I between Germany and the Allied Powers, assigning Germany blame for the war, imposing heavy penalties, including territorial losses, severe military restrictions, and financial reparations” JD is as ignorant as his master & that is saying a lot.
Well, Texas is a Stand Your Ground state “…allows individuals to use deadly force…permits the use of force, up to and including deadly force, if a person reasonably believes the force is immediately necessary to protect themselves or others from another's unlawful use or attempted use of force
That was Biden who got the money to rebuild the bridge
Why is it that Democrats get into political trouble when we try to follow the Golden Rule of “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” as well as the Platinum Rule “Do unto others as they would want done unto them"?
And who is a U.S. Citizen by your definition?
From the NYT: “Homeland Security Dept. Says It Hasn’t Kept Text Message Data Since April The agency’s response to public records requests indicated potential violations of federal records laws, experts said.” ‘Potential violations’ my ass.
How would you like to see ‘person’ refined?
What are you so worried about a trans folks who want to play sports. How many are you scared of?
Absolutely. He work for Trump for 10 years. He knows how Trum is
That’s ridiculous
Trump doesn’t need to be explicit. Michael Cohen told us that Trump speaks like a ‘Mob Boss’: “Trump “doesn’t give orders. He speaks in code.” & we know the code It is to remove anything that denigrates the white race and to remove anything that praises black and brown people.
#2. So you don’t like the constitution and just ignore it, right.
Trump “…focused too much on “how bad Slavery was.” DeSantis “defended new African American history for public schools, "slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit".” PragerU who has Columbus saying that ‘slavery was better than being killed.’
Colorado did remove him and the State Supreme Court approved it. However, the SCOTUS ruled that only the U.S. Congress could exercise article 3 of the 14th Amendment and remove a candidate from the ballot. Another of the SCOTUS ruling giving Trump cover since Rs in Congress would never do it
Dsdid that twice. That Rd in the Senate failed to convict is on them. DOJ got two indictments against Trump & would have gone to trial but for the SCOTUS giving him immunity And the SCOTUS ruled that only Congress can remove a candidate from the ballot for insurrection Rs are to blame for Trump
Why do you use the term ‘Let them off’. All were investigated and decisions made not to prosecute because of legal reasons. I don’t want a ‘DOJ of Retribution’ like Trump’s. What is needed is to strengthen the laws which now make it difficult to charge and convict for these types of things.
“And the decision not to prosecute was made by career DOJ prosecutors, not by Attorney General Merrick Garland or other department leaders.” As it should be in an ethically run DOJ, The DeJoy case was a statute of limitations one along with issues that are easily found in a quick search.
Explain the ‘letting Trump off two statutes of limitations’ The census issue was decided by the Supreme Court in 2019 The $120m involving things that were covered in a settlement in 2016 The DOJ made the decision not to prosecute Gaetz because of multiple issues easily found by a quick search…
Examples of Ossoff’s voting for MAGA Bills, please. “The League of Conservation Voters tracks the voting records of members of Congress on environmental, climate change, and democracy legislation and scores them on whether their votes protect people and the planet.” Ossoff’s lifetime record is 97%
It would not have made a difference if Garland had started earlier. The immunity would have been earlier Expanding the Court requires Congress to pass legislation. At no time did Ds have 60 votes to pass it. Blaming Ds for not doing something they can’t do helps Rs. Let’s focus on Rs today.
I’d like one that said: Hillary & Harris Told Us We Didn’t Listen
Name a few of top Republicans Garlsnd should have targeted?
Stop blaming Garland. DOJ charged 1,500 J6 participants getting 1,300 convictions & two cases going to trail against Trump for documents and J6 That the RWingers on the Supreme Court granted Trump Immunity is not Garland’s fault. Even if he had acted earlier, the immunity would have been earlier.
There is not much they can do because they don’t have the power to do something ’worth a damn’ What do think they can do and who should do it?
You are correct, I made some assumptions about his views I shouldn’t have. I apologize. But I do stand by my statement that Hillary was right about almost everything.
