Typical GOP behavior. Greedy sociopathic sadists. Their supporters are masochists...perfect S&M match.

almost years to the day. As long as Murdoch Media is alive and Andy Lack and Phil Griffin at NBC have now caved,we will so see the Orange Anus doing Call in Shows daily. Remember,he kicked it into high gear in late April of 2016.

and that is all the Execs care about. Yes he is going down big time as well as the Rethug Senate .

When this Covid Virus hits the Red states in full force,and those Fundies start doing their Arithmetic,there will be millions of new voters voting for Biden.

Neither are the poor.

They aren't the right people to them; non-citizens to them. Those life forms wouldn't vote for them anyway.

They will let them die and use code words to explain it to the people they see as real.

My problem with the ones who are fighting for their state but will not fight for their nation. They need to tell the truth about what Trump is doing right damn now.

drop dead in the street directly in front of the gates to the Republicans' gated communities. SO inconvenient, rude and distasteful of the hoi polloi.

However, none of them are immune to the COVID-19 virus. They believe themselves to be, though, in many cases, and are not exercising due caution.

I suspect there will be cases among them before long, as they gather together to plot the downfall of others.
