15. A tiger cannot change its stripes

Nov 2019

The GOP has gone to the dark side.

They can't come back because of bunch of them could also be held to account in criminal courts.

I think this is the most dangerous time for the well being of America during my lifetime - which goes back to before the Kennedy - Khrushchev nuke crisis.

A nation of laws has a party and a leader who will not obey them and we may not be bale to do anything meaningful in the short term about that.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Republican dickishness pre-dated Trump and will outlive him, as well n/t Blaukraut Nov 2019 #19

I love Biden but this will not happen coeur_de_lion Nov 2019 #20

I'd be less worried about Joe's mental state if I thought he was saying this WITHOUT believing it More_Cowbell Nov 2019 #30

Like it or not it's called common ground. NYT/Sienna poll out yesterday Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #40
