President Trump speaks at Ohio Republican Party state dinner - as it happened AUG 24, 2018 6:44 PM

Source: CBS News

“Trump goes after Democrats
Mr. Trump criticized the opposition party, saying that he refused to say the 'Democratic Party' but instead would say the 'Democrat Party.'

"I always hate to say the 'Democrat Party,' it doesn't sound good. That's why I say it," Mr. Trump said.

He railed on the leaders of the Democratic Party: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and Rep. Maxine Waters, who Mr. Trump called the "de facto head" of the Democratic Party. Mr. Trump and Waters have been feuding.”

He was staining the Columbus Convention Center. Vocal and non-violent Protesters outside were kept well across the street while they slid him into the dinner/fundraiser for Renacci.

don't get it. It makes THEM look bad, not the Democratic party. They sound ignorant and poorly educated. Whenever I hear it, it is like fingernails on a chalkboard, not because I'm a Democrat, but because every English teacher I've ever had is turning over in her/his grave.

No chalkboard here. This is right up there with "naa, naa, you're a stupid booby."

I hadn't thought of that. Some of these people are highly educated, yet they let political hacks and wordsmiths tell them what to do and say on a daily basis. Nothing matters as long as they are all on the same page every single day, such good sheep.

.... to accentuate the word "RAT". They do it to demean,... you know like a mean girl sophomoric thing - to piss off and hurt their opponent and dehumanize them.

The Nazis would often refer to their opponents as rats, so it naturally makes sense.

he is so petty and for lack of a better word stupid that to think of him as a so called president is unreal. His audience sure does love the moron.

all the positive reinforcement he can get lately. If he doesn't have someone stroking his ego 24/7 he goes into ass-kiss withdrawal.
Trump needs people kissing his ass like a heroin addict needs another fix.

He is a Republican. Other than the word Republican (their version of "I am Groot&quot , they have issues with words of more than three syllables. In the South, for example, the word "conservative" is pronounced "con-SERVE-tiv."

27. The 10 states with the most educated populace and the 10 with the least
Sat Aug 25, 2018, 10:25 AM
Aug 2018

The most:
10 New Jersey
9 Washington
8 Minnasota
7 New Hampshire
6 Virginia
5 Colorado
4 Vermont
3 Connecticut
2 Mayland
1 Massachsetts

The least:
10 New Mexico
9 Oklahoma
8 Tennessee
7 Nevada
6 Kentucky
5 Alabama
4 Arkansas
3 Louisiana
2 West Virginia
1 Mississippi

To appropriate a line from an old PSA commercial, A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Looks like the last ten save for two, Nevada and New Mexico voted for Trump. They are also states that receive the most in federal public assistance than the top ten.

I want to know how much fundraising it takes to buy his supposed moral superiority.

Did Kasich demand that the Ohio Retrumplican party give the funds to charity?

In other words, as I've said many times...

FUCK JOHN KASICH!!
