Today, this chapter of the Weimar Republic’s history should be revisited. At a moment in which democracy is backsliding in places as varied as Hungary, India, Turkey, and the United States, it is a reminder that democracy often erodes slowly at first, via the gradual surrender of those entrusted..

I think he just wants to have a complaint ready when Republicans lose the House. Of course his other Avenue is to gerrymander Democrats out of office.

As usual trump is ignorant about history and humans. The Civil War was fought so plantation owners could continue to own slaves to work their fields. Generations of new immigrants came and worked in back breaking jobs so the wealthy didn't have to. Few if any of their descendants will work fields

When I moved to Oregon in 1969 the GOP was a good group of people. That began to change when the anti-gay, anti-choice group began to take over the party. As far a pedos, we Democrats had to accept that Neil Goldschmidt was a pedo, we did, denounced him and he was out. GOP defends their pedos.

Trump's one month reprieve for auto makers is just crazy. How can the auto industry move every part of manufacturing out of Mexico and Canada in one month. This is just a reaction to the heat he is getting from Wall Street. He will probably continue to cause instability in the economy.

I'm not a farmer, but do own family farm land in Eastern Washington. The main crop is soft white wheat. The overwhelming majority of it is shipped to Asia. It is best for making noodles. Hard wheat is used for bread. Also most US wheat is allowed into the EU. So that market is out.
