In this forum we all know what the Trumpster is up to on the Carrier deal ....

In this forum we all know what the trumpster is doing, why is it that we cannot get the truth out to them. Instead they get fed the lies from the limpdicks and the faux news, in other words, like the potus said today, its hard to tell the truth when every bar and restaurant has faux news on.....?????

Why don't we have an available truth teller out there....???

Are lies and half truths more entertaining..??? or what...?

We know who broke government, why can't we communicate that to the masses.?

We know the new transportation secretary is going to sign off our interstate system to the highest bidders...??? Are we just going to stand by and watch our roads become pay as you go throughout the USA ????

We all know the banking regulator is the new deregulator....?? Are our savings just another casualty of this admin????

Why is fake news and misinformation more important than real truth...??? Is it just because we all need to prove our position???

Why isn't science respected by the masses...we have a climate change denier in the admin, and as POTUS, was this due to a dumbing down of the masses by the alt right media????

Are we all just going to type our thoughts in this forum and not do anything while our country is flushed down the toilet?????

Where are our leaders....???? I heard Rep Cummings today challenge the Trumpster on his conflicts of interest and trying to explain that to a non lawyer commentator...good fucking luck...the Trumpster will give everyone the finger and continue to do business as usual...

but he'll be gone.

We have to be strong. During the Vietnam war things were out of control as well, not like this, but people put their bodies on the line then, people took risks due to their conscience, we may need to again.

the clear picture in a short concise truth telling manner, then we are really asking for this admin to just stick it further in....and we continue to lose our country to the kleptocratic kakistocracy

8. Don't kleptos just snatch stuff while you're not watching?

I think these guys are worse than kleptos. He appoints a new thief or cheater every single day. I don't think they are even trying to hide it.

And you are correct, we need a mouthpiece. One who can explain not just the actions, but is also willing to give the implications of the whatever story they are reporting. I think many people think they understand the details of the story, but they may not understand what certain developments mean to their everyday life, or even in a real world scenario.

12. I agree, someone new has to emerge

Someone with authority who can keep the Republicans in line.

That means they have to have a modicum of respect from the Republicans.

Other than that a radical leader who is younger and who emerges organically would be great.
