Along with what is going on in the world and the loss of so many family members my seasonal depression is worse.

Watching Trump act the self absorbed, narcissistic fool being made fun of, going home in a snit, watching him wave good bye as if he still had a group of adoring fans instead of Dignitaries happy to see him go.

I watched Jonathon Turley yesterday. He tried to keep a straight face, but for those who actually watch faces Jonathon had the look of a man thinking as he watched the ignorance of Collins, Gaetz, Jordan, .Gohmart,” How did I end up on the side of these bozos?”

Turley outright lied about the speed of this case. Republicans failed charges against Clinton after 72 days. It is now 71 since Pelosi opened the case according to Jon Meacham.

Do we believe Meacham or Turley? I know my choice.

Might not make much difference, but in the Jerry Clowers story "Knock him out John," it was a lynx that prompted John to yell, "Just shoot up here amongst us, one of us has got to have some relief." The good ol' boys thought it was a raccoon.

I hope that the stress is gone soon.

Also, you apparenly have made the wise choice of going with the Democratic Presidential Candidate who has, by far, the most political experience of any of the candidates. He also polls the best against Donald Trump and polls the best in the super important non-college-educated group of voters that the Democrats did not win in 2016 as well as doing very well in the Rustbelt that was the turning point in 2016. He's someone who has spent his entire life working for the Democratic Party, and he knows how to get bills passed in Congress.

Congratulations on your excellent choice, and again, Welcome To Team Joe!

now is the time to get behind Joe. I like his positions more as I feel they are more in line with the electorate and think he has the best chance of beating trump. He can hit the ground running and has built in respect from our allies around the world as they feel they know him. I think he can rebuild our now degraded reputation on the global stage and restore some sanity to the way the U.S. is now unfortunately regarded.

It is being played and praised all over the media. Sample from Rawstory:

https://www.rawstory.com/2019/12/a-president-the-world-is-laughing-at-biden-releases-new-ad-attacking-trump-and-its-getting-widely-praised/

Former Vice President Joe Biden, still the Democratic frontrunner, Wednesday night released an ad that has many people talking – it’s already been viewed 5.4 million times – and it’s getting praise from even non-Biden supporters.

This is why we support Biden.

Welcome to the Biden bandwagon.

Thu Dec 5, 2019, 12:25 PM
Dec 2019

Donald Trump is a threat to our national security and our standing in the world. Trump said the world was laughing at the United States. This ad underscores that NO, the world is laughing at Donald Trump and while that happens we, as a world leader, are diminished and hamstrung in a dangerous and chaotic world.

The battle is for the heart and soul of the American Republic.

Joe Biden preached this message from Day 1. This ad sings the message loud and strong and people are reacting. Earlier in the process, Biden was criticized for this approach, accused of running a General Election strategy during the primary. What the power of this ad proves is that Joe was right, the critics wrong.

Easy-peasy
