Just watched Friedman on CNN with Anderson Cooper

It's time to challenge not only the GOP RWingers but pundit who continue to call folks on our side "elite liberals." What do they mean by "elite liberals?"

Do they mean, Harry Truman, Jimmy Carter, Johnson, Clinton, Obama were "elite liberals?? Do they mean AOC and all the other women who came to office in 2018 were "elite liberals?" Is Joe Biden an "elite liberal." What do they mean. The last time I read anything about most of our Democratic Presidents, with the exception of FDR and JFK, most of them came from modest and even humble backgrounds. Clinton and Obama were children of broken homes with absent fathers, raided by single moms and working class grandparents.

I think I can identify some "elites" though: Let's start with DeVos, Munchin, Ross, and over half the millionaire GOP in the Senate. Remember those "elites" who already have left the administration?

I am tired of the cover for folks who voted for Trump as people who resented the "liberal elites" looking down on them and deciding how they should live their lives. When, in fact, for most of them it was nothing more than a sincere attraction to someone who is as racist, misogynistic, and homophobic as they themselves are. It wasn't about being denied jobs and being poor because the "libs" were giving all the good jobs to those "others." BS!! And if they mean by government telling them how to live that passing laws to ensure equal justice under the law, non-discrimination in housing and employment, or protecting our environment so that we have clean air and water and safe places to live...then screw them!!

i just wish for once a pundit or journalist would challenge any person, Democrat or Republican, to define what they mean when they use those terms as a pejorative. Just once will someone ask, "What do you mean by "liberal elite?"

Why is there no outrage all over Congress about the GOP refusing to obey a court order?

The CA court ordered a cease and desist order about the unauthorized ballot boxes and the GOP just says they will not remove them and are just going to add more WTF??

Don't even worry, Dems, about taking heat for expanding the SCOTUS. Play by the same rule the GOP plays by. Pass the damn law to expand SCOTUS and Lower Federal Courts. FIGHT.

The GOP and Trump have ignored legitimate law all over the place, teaching citizens that it is ok to disobey the law. I can hardly wait until a Biden administration gets in office and begins to enforce the laws.

Just caught a segment of Cuomo discussing the latest conspiracy lie Trump tweeted about.

Don't understand it all but it had to do with the bin Laden raid and one of the team members was on talking about how ridiculous it is.

I believe I see a new Lincoln Project ad coming out soon.

It's disgusting the way Trump lies, and smears our intel community and the military.

Trump is deplorable.

Anybody heard anything from Chris Christie? nt

Why doesn't the media and the GOP talk about this re Hunter Biden??

https://sizzle.substack.com/p/hunter-biden-chaired-world-food-program

"Hunter Biden served as Chairman of the World Food Program which just won the Nobel Peace Prize. In contrast, Eric Trump, Donald J Trump Jr and Ivanka Trump are all permanently banned from operating a charity again. Why? Because they ALL reportedly stole donations from children with cancer."

A couple I know who are Republicans and who voted for Trump in 2016 say

they will vote for Trump again. Big discussion took place. Bottom line is they are going to vote for the dumpster because they don't like to be proven wrong and are going to stick with their decision because they resent .."I told you so." I bet there are quite a few out there who will vote for that pig just because they want to show us libs a thing or two. Any way, I have a sneaky suspicion that the wife will vote for Biden when the curtains are drawn.

Anybody else know folks voting for 45 who really don't like him but doing it just for spite because they were so wrong before?

Just returned from a morning drive to clear my head.

Glad i made it back to witness Sen.Whitehouse give another monster lesson on the ethics of our judicial system. He is magnificent.

I went for a drive, feeling very low over the loss of my husband and so many in my family to COVID19. One news clip drove me nuts last night. It was that "Macho, Macho, Man" a song that makes you want to fight rather than make peace and show kindness. I now know what is missing today surrounding our politics...the music. I took a deep dive while driving and heard Marvin Gaye singing "What's Going' On" one of my favorites. Then I heard a jazz version of this song...and it made me cry to think about what we are missing and how far we have fallen under this administration...so sad

Interesting that no GOP that I have seen can name one unnecessary Pelosi add-on to

the stimulus package. It's what they do. They just throw out allegations and their base takes it as truth.

If the ACA is overturned, and we win the Presidency and Congress and Senate,

can't the new administration replace it immediately with something similar and more expansive? Shouldn't the Biden campaign have a new plan at the ready?

Just not going to watch the Town hall s-show that 45 will hold.

The man is dangerous for high blood pressure patients, grieving families, depressed individuals. Since I fit all the categories I will watch something else for sure. Good luck to the rest of you who choose to support this farce.
