There are a couple of Terrific Things Happening..

But Very few and far between...

The anti Trump Marches, Gun Demonstrations and the Kids, Stormy and her Lawyer, a couple of great Election Victories for us. and thats about it..

The stuff with Trump is just so fucking tiring and depressing.. It's just goes on and on and on.
Use to be you'd see a "Breaking News" story maybe once or twice a day..But now...Every freaking 15 minutes.. You'd think that these stories are a gimmick by the media to keep us on our couches to watch the commercials...but they're not!

The fact is that our pres..is draining the energy out of most of us..We stay informed, we do our political stuff on the net...but its all so frightening (Now Iran) and just freaking draining.

One of the thread poster reminded me of something which fits right on!
While we toss,turn,curse at the moron 20 times a day.?
Trump's base? Having a ball.. watching him destroy our country!.

… 100% but you can bet its not wearing chumps supporters down. Sometimes I just need to get away for a bit but we have to stay focused. Rather fight them NOW than later in the streets.

How can any of this be real? The orange usurper thinks he is the mafia Godfather of the U.S. and can treat us all as he pleases. He has completely reversed our course and our commitments in the world, and couldn't care less about our U.S. Constitution and our laws. He is gorging himself on our money, public properties and lands.

So sick of it and disheartened every damn day.

Still covers Trump like he's President.. You know, Respecting the Office of President.

Enough of that.. He should be treated as a Runaway Train.. and we all should be panicking.

Stand up and say on the air? "I am frightened to death for my family and everyone else..In our world!"


Iran is such a frightening situation.. That fucking Netanyahu doesn't help a bit either'

That is how we should frame the un-pResident, his administration and the Russian and NRA funded Republicans in Congress. This is America, damn it!
