Murphy Brown reboot- Taking aim at Trump!

Apologies if someone else has posted this one already.

LOVED watching her shred Dan Quayle back in the late 80’s early 90’s.

This promises to be HIGHLY entertaining, and extremely smart political commentary through comedy! Airing on CBS on the 27th! Can’t wait!

The 459 People, Places and Things Donald Trump Has Insulted on Twitter: A Complete List

Apologies if this is a repost, but I hadn't seen it yet, and just had to share. It's almost mind numbing just how absolutely atrocious and disgusting this orange jackass is.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/01/28/upshot/donald-trump-twitter-insults.html

There's just too much to even begin an excerpt or blockquote from. Just scrolling down and randomly pick the crap that's spewed from this creatures twitter.

Practically a small encyclopedia of insults. WTF is wrong with people who continue to support?!?!

Exactly my thoughts. Escalation through Putin.

I’ve said in a few threads now that I fully believe that Trump and Putin will orchestrate a controlled escalation of conflict to ensure 45’s protection.

If 45 didn’t continuously demonstrate all 14 of the traits of a fascist dictator, I’d have second thoughts on this, but as it stands I’m fully expecting the manufacturing of a modern day Reichstag fire, and with the collusion, I’m expecting it to happen with Russia.

Anyone who actually believes that 45 cares, at all, about the lives of our troops is a fool, and hasn’t really been paying attention.

A manufactured, controlled escalation of hostilities for 45 could:
*Take the heat off the scrutiny of his Russian connections.
*Be used to paint Democrats as weak on the military to energize their base come election time.
*Be used as a large enough diversion for him to blame the Mueller investigation for being a cause of the conflict and use it as an excuse to kill off the investigation without the tRumpublicon congress intervening.
*Come november he may even use the manufactured conflict to declare a state of emergency, and strong-arm tRumpublicon governors to suspend state elections to “protect the integrity of the US government in this time of war” or some such bullshit.

Ruby Red Texas District 7... wow.

So, I did my civic duty today. For me, this is nothing new, since 18 I make the time to research the ballot, and vote every cycle.

I vote in Texas disrict 7.. the district of the detestible John Culberson. This is a pretty darn red district, and Culberson has been reigning for a very long time.

In 2014, 2010, and 2006... every single time I’ve gone to the mid-term primaries, the Republican side is a line of people, and full voting booths. The Democratic Party side.. walk in, sign in, vote, and go.... This is the first time I’ve voted in a mid-term primary since I moved into this area where the Democratic Party side is bustling, and the Republican side, while still having people there, a good bit less than historically observed.

I realize this is way too small a sample to really be relied upon as any kind of real indicator, but damn it gives me hope, and made my heart happy today. Just had to share.
