question everything

I wonder whether the Republicans will hang on to Whiny Donny until after November

Getting rid of him now will anger his base.

But I would like to think that they've had it with him, and will be happy with Pence.

And I hope that if we do take control of the House, that we do start impeaching him. I am sure that many Republicans will join.

He is getting worse and worse. This morning Carl Bernstein said that the comparison should not be to Watergate, but to McCarthy. And it is not coincidence that Roy Cohn, who was Mccarthy's aid, was also Trump. Not coincidence that Trump was shouting where is my Roy Cohn.

Trump is still very popular in deep red districts. For those congressmen, opposing Trump is political suicide.

It is not just that we don't like him. We did not like Nixon and Bush, they did not like Clinton and Obama. But this person is getting crazier and crazier by the day.

won Obama.

(Republicans did the same with Steele, after their 2010 "shellacking.&quot

I have been encouraged by Virginia vote late last year. They had the candidates and they came close to flipping the house.

He has always understood who the real Democratic Party Voters were and what message they need to carry to the Public.

Every since the Iowa victory speech,which was sabotaged by Fox via the use of a Noise Canceling Microphone,it turned out to be Suicide Politically. The Scream heard around the world.
