This is the truth and it needs to be the narrative. I know many here have been saying this for a long time.

Some projects done with stimulus money but not much since then due to GOP not wanting to help Obama get re-elected.

MAGA is their slogan to victory.

(6,150 posts)This is a different kind of war, but still a war; a cyberwar.
The armies are different, the battlefield is different, the stakes are just as high.
Trump has given our adversary a green light to continue its attack in 2020.
He told Putin that the "Russian hoax" was done, finished.
And he said Putin smiled. Even though Trump couldn't see him, he knew these were the words Putin wanted to hear.
Round two is coming up, and the fate of the Republic hangs in the balance.
Time to stand up, step up, and deliver.
