Bill Clinton's campaign manager. And still an outspoken Democrat whose wife, Mary Matalin, is a staunch Republican and they play against each other, but I think it's a stunt for TV ratings. Just like Kellyanne and George Conway.

He was Bill Clinton's campaign manager. Let's put it this way he has an awesome political mind, even if I don't always agree 100% with him. Do you remember the saying, "It's the economy, Stupid." when talking about the older Bush? He came up with that.

My point is that Republicans have become not good people. Her argument (she’s Democrat like me) that these people that she works with and those relatives are good people.

They may be good in many ways to me, but when the Republican Wisconsin legislators, their Supreme Court and then the federal supreme court’s decision was such, I cannot think of a Republican as good.

I figure they like the death of Democrats. I don’t like the opposite. I’m not like that. But they are like that.

GOP motto/goal: "kill and bankrupt as many as possible". They are successful so far, that's for sure.

He didn't make any attempt to explain, or elaborate, which made it seem even more real. He had a completely dead serious expression, and let it hang there a moment, just as if he had said it to someone sitting in his house, or something.

It was very interesting to to hear him, and I don't think there is anyone anywhere who would really doubt it, although they will probably try to raise hell about it, anyway.

Thanks for your post.

He said, "They will do anything to stay in power, literally. This is one of the worst thing I have seen in my life". He was referring to "the WI vote and the one seat on the Supreme Court".

With everyone watching. Nov is going to be scary. I hope the Dems have plans A, B and C since he and Barr and Mitch WILL kill more people if they need to in their warped minds.

If Dump "opens up" the country, which he'll probably go ahead and do, since nobody stops anything he does... He'll go way over his incredibly fantanstic job holding down the casualties.

African Americans are contracting/dying from the virus in disproportionately higher numbers. In Chicago for instance, seven times more than white people, even with more underlying health problems, like diabetes and high blood pressure.

We know what a racist sociopathic misogynist tRump is, and we know AA's propelled Joe Biden to the nomination.

tRump and his minions will do anything to stay in power, and he thinks he can get away with anything.

If you're not paranoid, you're not paying attention.
