"SNIP......
The same Louisiana Republican Party that 30 years ago refused to censure former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke decided last Saturday to censure Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) for his vote to convict President Trump on abuse of power impeachment charges, the Washington Examiner reports.
......SNIP"

(58,653 posts)I am often entirely too flippant on some threads.
Like the song says: If we couldn't laugh, we'd all go insane.
I don't mean to be disrespectful of my fellow posters, just trying to help the anxiety level a bit.

(118,646 posts)up for Trump. People have hit a wall and say 'nope - he will not win again and we will do what we have to, to make it so'. It was there before but now it is everyone. Minds are closed. Trump has to go. That is the candidate who will win the nomination. Whoever personifies NOPE.
As to you, the DU has waves of characters, delivering waves of information in so many ways nobody democratic feels left out. You are definitely one of the important characters.

(2,398 posts)I just re-read an interesting statistic. 29% of Louisiana Republicans believe that Obama screwed up the aid to the area after Katrina. In 2005. Obama didn't take office until 2009.
Louisiana ranks last overall.....#48 in education...#49 in economy...#50 in opportunity...#50 in crime and corrections...#50 in environment.
And.... #1 in homicide rate.
No love lost here for Romney, but the Louisiana Repubs should just STFU.
