How can she be married to him?
She's pretty, well spoken, comes off as intelligent in interviews.
I just don't get how she can be with that turtle every day of her life.

Read somewhere marriage was an exchange -- her family's wealth helping his runs for office, his political power aiding them however they want.

4. So McConnell is blaming Comrade Casino*

and Comrade Casino* is blaming the democrats.

But in truth there is no one to blame. The American people won. So the republican losers should just shut up, suck it up, and think things over.

Remember, repubes, you stole the election with the help of gerrymandering, voter suppression, and russian hacking. You do not have a majority. Your base is made up of a popular mob of suckered citizens mezmerized by the toob, a basket of authentic deplorables, and a small pack of mean-spirited, greedy old bastard billionaires.

The majority of America citizens wants health care, a clean environment, healthy food, renewable energy, social services at least as good as in our good neighbor to the North, Canada, honest politicians, etc. etc..

The American people are right. They have some great ideas. You should stop blaming them, listen to them, and heed them.

Trump is now acting out by pissing off anyone connected to the Republican establishment. He won't stop until they grovel to him. He needs a win that humiliates someone else.

and taught cooking as a teen. Have raised a family and cooked thousands of meals. My husband who is 71 and is just learning to cook some basic things just loves to come into the kitchen and offer me advice. So yes, I do kinda get the "McConnell doesn't need advice from the peanut gallery" thingy.
