It's not just a matter of how they feel about others. I could live with that and never give it a thought. It's what they DO to people. Bringing their religion into public schools, don't like it? We'll just get rid of public schools. Crawling into women's bodies? Don't like it? Don't try to leave the state if you're a female human of child bearing years. Throwing normal, hardworking Americans out of work. Don't like it? Don't be brown.

He is only doing what Putin tells him. A dived America is Putin's dream come true.

Just like Jesus would have wanted. /s - just in case.

True enough. Joe Biden was great because he really came from a blue collar town and a working class family. He was was the real deal. Guys (lets be real, it's gonna be a guy) so this list of top contenders will never fly- Gretchen Whitmer – Governor of Michigan - nope, woman. Raphael Warnock – Junior Senator of Georgia- nope, black Pete Buttigieg – Former mayor and previous Transportation Secretary - nope, gay Josh Shapiro – Governor of Pennsylvania - maybe but Jewish Jared Polis – Governor of Colorado - remains to be seen. Wes Moore – Governor of Maryland - ditto Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – U.S. representative of New York (and likely de-facto representative of the Progressive wing) - nope, woman, too progressive So, who is it going to be ? Newsome? I don't think so.

That "aw shucks" crap from Bush was such an act. He came from a political dynasty and he was about as Texan as I am. In fact I may be more so because even though I now live in blue Washington and even bluer Seattle, I was at least born in San Antonio.

What baffles me more than Trump's lets face it, scant education, is his father's immense wealth. His "gold" plated palaces and rich playboy lifestyle in NYC, doesn't even faze them. The "he's just like us" delusion is like a kind of blindness.

Then why do the people you mentioned act like they're ashamed of their educations? Do they really think so little of the electorate that they pretend to be ignorant to appeal to people they consider the "the little" people?

I think it's enough to say we're pro inclusion. But harping on it as the centerpiece of your message is not resonating with swing voters. What they need to pound home is the economy. That's what working people care about the most.

Yeah, if Trump croaks or becomes so out of it that they can no longer hide it and cover it up with cries of "fake news", I don't think there is a chance in hell that Vance will ever drum up the same fervor on the right, especially with the really MAGAtty ones that his predecessor has.

My problem with the Harris campaign was that they tried to hurt Trump on his terms. He loves ratings and shiny attention and they grabbed at that with huge rallies with lots of A listers and pop princess star power. And yes, that made Donald feel bad but it didn't make voters feel better. I think they should have run more of a ground game, holding town hall in red states like Ohio, Kansas and Missouri. They put their strongest advocate for the middle class, Tim Walz on the back burner when he should have been out front.

This is why Elizabeth is an only cat. There used to be a sweet male cat that would come around and sit on top of our fence at the end of the driveway, right next to her window. They would paw at each other playfully and we loved him. Then one day, my husband opened the front door for something and he darted in. She went after him and would have torn him to shreds (lol, she's a BIG cat) and my husband threw a towel over her and separated them. She tore that towel to ribbons. So, there went the idea of getting her a little friend.

I think you spelled crack wrong.

He's a useless orange chaos goblin. The bully decided not to punch me in the face today. Yay.

It's great for cleaning sticky resins out of your weed pipe. Or so I've heard.
