Don't forget DJT wants millions to lose health insurance

He gets platinum-level care paid for by us.

This angers me to no end

Newscasters, commentators I think you mean "flouted"

mask-wearing by the Idiot-In-Chief- he flouted it, not flaunted. More than one person has said flaunted. I mean, he flaunts, too, his arrogance and ignorance. But, he flouts not wearing masks. Plus, he put others' lives in danger, he does not care, and I am not going to pretend to care about such an awful, evil person.

Will Hope Hicks be the super-spreader scapegoat?

What's the timeline? Could she have been given it and not spread it to The Trumpster and his inner circle?

Will she learn the hard way Republicans will throw even an ally under the bus?

DR. Pena just now on MSNBC

I understand she was Pence's physician. Not sure why this isn't private, but she talked about Trumps co morbidities- heart didease, high cholestoral, obesity, age. That he's currently manifesting mild, cold-like symptoms, but that could change quickly. Very interesting interview. Anyone see it?

Who say it's a hoax?

"Both idiots" frustrating work conversation

At work today, minus one Democrat, the general feeling was that both Biden and Trump were awful. I pointed out the Biden did a great job, stayed on point, was presidential, and laid out his policies. Even when Trump went low, and low he did go.

I felt that, because Trump acted crazy and like a dumpster fire, people are holding that against Biden. What the Hell is Biden supposed to do when he was being interrupted constantly, talked over, put down. I thought he stayed rather calm and I was glad to finally hear someone tell Trump to shut his yap.

I hope a lot of others are not viewing Joe through a lens like this because of TRUMP'S behavior. I am still upset about hearing this. Maybe because we were at work people thought they should complain about both sides? Just had to get this off my chest.

So frustrating. I, personally, think the debate made Trump look even more deranged to the average swing voter.

Ever know in your guts it was going to get this bad?

I was 15 when Reagan was sworn into office. I remember his fight with the air traffickers. I remember feeling queasy about that, even as a teenager. Watching Republicans and their enablers over the last 40 years, RW extremism and fascism have come to full fruition.

A lot of my generation will say RR was one of the greatest Presidents, and I have to remind them how things got worse for average people upon his election. Older people who know better, well, know better. I have a memory of when I was about 20, of a man and his wife, and his kid being turned away from an emergency room for not having the money nor the insurance for care. And even then, I thought, this is crazy. What is going on? I was on my parents' insurance, so I was in my little bubble, but finally starting to realize not everything here in Kansas is okay. I still think about that family years later, and wonder what they did about the man's injury. Why do American elect a RR and why do they continue to make life miserable for themselves and other average Americans?

Ever feel this craziness was coming, but no one believed you? Knowing that Roe V Wade was always in their crosshairs and they would never stop until they overturned it. The book True Believer by Eric Hoffer predicted in the 70s that we would eventually, end up with a wanna-be dictator like Trump. I am going to vote, donate, and do everything I can to get rid of Trump and his minions. Thanks for reading.
