Mother of God, that's a devastating collection!

OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH!

You want truth? Ask a cartoonist. They do it visually like no one else can.

On edit - I LOVE how Sarah Huckabee Sanders was depicted! Just desserts. (So to speak...)

This was confirmed during the campaign

for anybody who had eyeballs-connected-to-brain. Convention speech where, within minutes, her fashion website was hawking her outfit and how YOU TOO could “shop Ivanka’s look” for a mere small fortune, not a king’s ransom but more like a “princess-grade” ransom, I suppose. To be fair, dontchaknow.

Then there was the post-election “60 Minutes” interview of the family, wherein Ivanka could be seen sitting right there in front with her dad and Melania. Clearly aware that the camera was on her, she casually lifted one hand across her chest to her opposite shoulder and posed in that position for several long moments. Thus the viewer could not miss a glimpse of the gold bracelet on her wrist. And sure enough, there soon came a closeup shot, on her website, of that bracelet on her arm, with a caption reminding that you saw her wear it on “60 Minutes” and that very same bracelet could be YOURS (!) for a mere ten grand.

She IS a grifter of the first order. Another opportunistic infection on two legs (but this one smooth and slick and silky-looking). Your fucking crooked larcenous mercenary family is supposedly in the Public SERVICE arena now, your highness. It’s NOT supposed to be about how much you can profit from it.

Ouch!

OUCH!

But seriously, why not? He's already got his nice new pair of presidential kneepads - with the "MAGA" logo embroidery!

Here, too, we'll have to agree to disagree.

NO candidate is perfect. EVERYBODY has some problems. But April Ryan this morning made the point - the game is DIFFERENT now. And if trump has changed the game and the rules (as he HAS, like it or not), then I think we should play THAT game and shellack his ass with it.

So you'll want to go rogue and make sure that we DON'T stand together and therefore

we LOSE. AGAIN.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree, my friend.

Neither can I, Jackie.

I've seen my LAST Susan Sarandon movie. Said that awhile back. Still feel that way. I don't buy books by crooks, either (learned that, among other things, from Watergate). I don't reward OR reinforce bad behavior (learned that as a mother).

Whatever you're selling, Sarandon, I'm NOT buying. I'm not even gonna be walking down the same street where your store is located.

GOOD. She deserves this like nobody's business.

You broke it, you bought it, Susan.

And science was cool.

I like him, too. But he doesn't have the "oomph" yet. He'd be a GREAT running mate for Oprah, though

Male, liberal, governor, younger, offers geographical balance.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
