How long till Trump calls Mike Flynn a liar?

Minutes?
Hours?
Days?
Weeks?
It's going to happen.

Note to Journalists: When the GOP politician says "I don't follow his (Trump's) tweets." you need to

respond with
"Why don't follow his tweets?
Don't you think the things the President of the United States directly tells the world are important?
Do you think his tweets are irrelevant?
Do you think it's important to know what the President thinks?
Do you consider them official statements of United States policy?
Do you not follow them because you don't like the President?"

FOLLOW UP directly instead of letting them pretend to not know anything about your question.

If the GOP passes the Tax Bill the Democratic Party should stop all legislative co-operation

in both House of Congress
Period.
Done with all of it and let the American people know why.
Let it all shut down if the GOP rob the Treasury for the rich and corporations.
Fuck them.

Can Democrats make an effective argument that we are better candidates than a pedophile?

That's what we have to do now.
That's where we are.
So now we have to go nuclear on every single Republican candidate and office holder in this nation.
EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.
Because they are making the case that a pedophile is a better candidate than "a liberal," to quote the President.
Are you folks up for this?
Are you pissed yet and ready to burn the GOP to the ground (electorally)?
Can we fight for every single elected office in the country in all 50 states?
Because if we don't, the pedophiles will have won.

To all Republicans: A holder of high office in our federal government has been accused of past

sexual assault that occurred when they were in the entertainment industry.
What do you think should be done about it?

At this point I believe the GOP could totally rationalize running Charles Manson for office...

as a Republican: "He's a dedicated family man."

GOP: If you still support Roy Moore I don't want to hear one more f**king word out of your mouth

about Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, or any other alleged sex offender anywhere.
You can still vote for your accused child molester because "family values" but you better shut the fuck up about it in public.

This is America.

This is America.
So today TV reporters keep going out of their way to awkwardly describe it as "the worst church shooting in US history" because Americans only care about "Bests and Mosts" to grab and keep their attention.
Because we've had church mass murders before.
And this guy didn't kill the MOST people ever, like in Vegas.
At 12 victims he didn't even kill the most children, like in Sandy Hook.
So that's how the media has to classify them now:
This is the worst ____ shooting ever.
And then we can just fill in the blank:
Church
Mosque
Synagogue
Concert
Nightclub
Movie theater
Office building
School (select sub-category)
- Elementary
- Middle-school
- High school
- College/University
Mall/store
Park/Ball field
Gas station
Police station
Airport
Train station
Military base
Hospital/Abortion clinic
Restaurant

If you aren't used to it then suck it up and get used to it fast, because we live in a nation of cowards and corruption that will allow money, racism, and xenophobia to prevent us from making any attempt to fix the situation.
After all, this is America.

About ZonkerHarris

Nixon was a fucking crook. As a teenager I marched on the UN in 1982 with a million other people demanding we get rid of the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over our heads. Since then I've worked to get Democrats elected like John Aristotle Phillips, known as the A-Bomb Kid when he ran for Congress against Stuart McKinney in CT in the 80's (we lost twice) through the Obama campaign in 2008 and 2012. I want to legalize cannabis, reform our prison for profit system, cut our military budget, get out of Afghanistan and push solar energy panels into every building in the USA.
