He is usually eloquent but today went to the next level talking about MBS (or whatever they call him) and the complicity of our President. Wow

(7,584 posts)Schmidt was pheromonal ..in fact everyone on the panel did a superb job. This was one of the best programs Nicole has done.

(53,410 posts)Did you really mean to say pheromonal? Or did you try to type phenomenal just to have your iPhone do creative editing?
That happens to me a lot. Sometimes I read what I thought I had typed and something really bizarre is there. So much so that occasionally I cant remember what I actually tried to type!
Yet pheromonal is just another word for sexy, so for women it might be the right word!
erlewyne
(1,115 posts)But I think pheromonal fits great. Why does this editor
reject the word? When I first read it, before your
attention, I thought I read phenomenal!
Now I am confused.

It's a "stand up for the IDEA of America" goose-bump making moment.
It ought to be turned into commercials, right now.

(15,412 posts)It didn't take long, and listen to Steve, he cited all these Dem candidates he admires. He's on his way.

(65,487 posts)pushed. I am glad he is a never-Trumper and ditched the GOP, but he would be all for a Kasich, a Sasse, or a Nikki Haley.
I sure would never vote for him for anything. He is a right winger of the old kind, but a right winger nonetheless.I
Fortunately, though, for now he is an eloquent, infuriated anti-Trump pundit.
Volaris
(10,274 posts)I look forward to the day when I can vehemently disagree with him again
He's still a 'republican'. He's just not insane. I'll take it for now.
Grasswire2
(13,571 posts)...was when he talked about people walking to America for the promise and the idea of safety and freedom. Gave me goosebumps.

(51,627 posts)All the guests were really good. The country is readied for a civil war due to the division tRump has caused in record time. How long will ot take for the country to become united and to be a whole again? When will we be proud to be American? Rosie O'Donnell raised good points too.

I don't do cell phone apps, so I'm glad it's offered for regular 'puters as well.

(812 posts)Every word succinct and powerful. I wish that our Democratic politicians would watch him speak, take notes, and use the same language and make the same points he was making. I was hanging on every word and agreed with everything he said. Even Rosie was impressed! I am glad he is on our side now.
DeminPennswoods
(15,290 posts)Wallace even mentioned something along the lines of editing them to a 30 second spot. Dems could easily do that and just run them as national political ads.
lillypaddle
(9,581 posts)Steve is pretty impressive. I think Rosie was shocked (in a good way) - it was a great panel, but Nicolle's show is almost always good.
The Blue Flower
(5,444 posts)The panel was excellent, and the regularly awesome Steve Schmidt did definitely out-do himself.

elfin
(6,262 posts)His reaction is more visceral than other panelists on any show out there. Blood pressure must be stratospheric.
He seems tortured more than others by this nasty twist in our history. Bet he is no picnic to live with. Hope there is someone to add cheer to his life to get him ready for his next superb fact-based tirade.

Hamlette
(15,412 posts)I've read Rick Wilson and David Frum's books on how awful Trump is and how we need to get rid of him but both of them did so while trashing Dems. I've never heard Steve do that and today he went further. He had praise for Bobby Kennedy and half a dozen dems running all over the country. Good on him.
