This is one of the best gun control arguments I've ever heard. Lengthy thread.

'Quid pro quo right before our eyes!'
Quid pro quo right before our eyes! Trumps threat against New York seen as exact same crime he was impeached over
President Donald Trump pressed New Yorks governor to end the states lawsuits against him ahead of their meeting and many saw that as more than just a request.
The Trump administration moved to block New York residents from the expedited Global Entry process at the border, and the president called for the state to drop its investigations of his businesses before meeting with Gov. Andrew Cuomo to discuss the travel policy.
Im seeing Governor Cuomo today at The White House, Trump tweeted. He must understand that National Security far exceeds politics. New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment, start cleaning itself up, and lowering taxes. Build relationships, but dont bring Fredo!

First Hope Hicks and now this guy. I don't know what's going on, but it sounds like he's getting personal minders back on staff.
Trump just put a 29-year-old fired for his alleged financial crimes
in charge of all personnel decisions
John McEntee, President Donald Trump's former body man who was fired in 2018 amid an investigation into his alleged financial crimes, will lead the Presidential Personnel Office, multiple news outlets reported Thursday.
Former White House chief of staff John Kelly forced McEntee out over issues with the young aide's security clearance. The issues were related to online gambling problems and mishandling of his taxes, the Wall Street Journal reported.
McEntee was also the subject of a financial-crimes investigation by the Department of Homeland Security.
McEntee was reportedly escorted out of the White House in March 2018 without being allowed to collect his belongings, including his jacket.

Was just told by one of my contacts that the actual reason why Hope Hicks is being brought back to the WH is due to Trumps declining mental state.

I find this rumor about Hope Hicks returning to the White House very believable.

Trump is suffering from a fact deficiency.

I can hardly wait to get some dirt under my fingernails.
I'm doing containers this year with just a few things I can keep up with that won't overwhelm me. Planning on tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber for sure so I have the makings of a salad.
FYI Park seeds has a special deal right now. 10 packets of seed for $10.00. Nice variety of veggies, herbs and flowers.

I keep seeing articles and posts asking if Trump has learned a lesson.
I would rather know if Republicans have learned a lesson.
Trump has learned that he has the backing of the Republican Senate, regardless what he does.
Has the Republican Senate learned that there is no low that's too low for him to implement?
