It's THEIR fault and THEY will have to be the ones to clean this mess up, for once.

The longer they leave him in the White House, the more burned they'll be.

Just picture all the Republicans we all can stand shoveling elephant shit for the next two years.

Not our circus, not our elephants, shit's all theirs.

It is absolutely THEIR fault. I didn't vote for the son-of-a-bitch and anyone who did is an ill-informed idiot. End of story.

But the rest of us will suffer the consequences. I do believe we will see a drastic change in Congress in 2018, but we've got to make it to 2018.

In taking some good advice from DU members, I took a break from the news for around one week only to return to what's looking like the beginning of the end. It's been fun lately, but I'm making sure it doesn't affect my mood or health.

You think just because he is a lunatic, unstable, untrustworthy, treasonous imbecile who commits crime and compromizes the US, he will be impeached. No way! 6 words: Tax cuts, Deregulation, Repel Obamacare, Judges.

33 extra Repub Reps who would die for those issues. FU to everything and everyone else.

Maybe we could rile him into a heart attack, but he seems to be a roach who can hang on against all odds.
We need to get real and come up with plans if he doesn't leave. Remember when no one took him seriously during the primaries? He's much stronger now and has the corrupt Repub party behind him.

Lifetime energy. Plus, he is quick tempered and nurtures things he is upset about. Vengeful.

I never even thought these things about GWB.

He seems to have stirred the pot today. He is exhausting even his own party.

When everyone gets beat down sufficiently, they can get away with just about anything. We may be getting close to that point?

on every front at once while sowing tons of distraction, hatred, and vilification of liberals to keep them upset, frustrated, and misdirected. All the while, destroying democracy, supplanting fascism, and making off with the money.

They look as though they haven't slept for a week. I wouldn't be surprised if someone drops dead on the job. I'm pretty sure none of them realized they were signing up for this shit show.
