better? Maybe our country needs to go down the toilet for a while so that people start to realize how horrifying the republicans are and how they might just want something different.

I think we need to address the pro-life thing by showing just how anti-life republicans are because I think that the evangelical group votes on that one issue.

And also maybe this is the time that we need to re-organize so we can come back stronger. Rachael Maddow talked about how after Obama was elected the Tea Party organized and that is how they took back congress and the house. Now we have more groups and our protests and resistance is much stronger than the tea party.

I really believe Trump is going and maybe the little pricks under him will lose some of their balls.

I think several years ago some countries in Europe had adopted really harsh austerity measures. And now I think they have come back.

Everything cycles.
