We'll see! I think Republicans are in for quite a wake-up call in the midterms. (I'll equivocate enough to add, "If we HAVE midterms.")

Mmmm, to be honest, I've never been all that impressed with him. I agree with most of his ideas (not quite all), but his solutions are not fully thought through. He seems to me to be more interested in personal cult-like status than buckling down and doing the detailed hard work. Sorry.

I had hoped that we'd move closer to socialism by peaceful means and an understanding that universal health care, education, housing, food, etc., means a better life for ALL Americans. I'm sorry to say that I think you are very possibly right, and we may be in for a violent civil war.

I've got plenty of speech for this, none of it appropriate for a public forum.

I feel so bad for not only this couple, but for all Americans facing this disaster. I just read an interview where "Dr." Oz claimed that premiums will go up an average of $13 per month. What planet does he live on???

I want fewer Republicans.

Sounds to me as if she's as qualified as trump's other cabinet members. Hey, my 5-year old grandson wants to be a doctor. Maybe he could be our new Surgeon General if this nutcase's nomination doesn't go through. Oh- never mind. He understands why he got vaccinated.

I always called my parents' friends Aunt and Uncle. Never thought of their kids as my "cousins," though- they were just my friends.

Nawww. Check out Nixon. My parents lived in California when he first ran for Senate, and never forgave him for smearing Helen Gahagan Douglas. (Mom and Dad were lifelong Democrats.)

I'm actually missing NIXON. And even GHW Bush.

Oh, REALLY? I'd like to introduce them to my 38-year old daughter, who has autism, no short-memory ability, profound auditory processing issues, and other fun little challenges. Those damn "Christian" nationalists have their nerve. And no humanity.

Oh my god. The mere idea that our federal workers need this help disgusts me. Chef Andres is someone who deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Oh, many. My husband and son-in-law, for two. Almost all the men I personally know are resisters and strongly support women's rights, including women's health rights. We have 2 daughters. My husband would much rather have a living, healthy daughter than another grandchild, much as we adore them.

A blast from the past! Remember when Trump said that he and Kim "fell in love"?

YES. THANK YOU. Age and term limits might mean we'd get rid of some nasty people, but Republican primaries tend to nominate the most right-wing candidates these days. And on the other hand, I wouldn't have wanted to get rid of people like John Lewis or Elijah Cumming because of age/term limits.

I think it could backfire pretty badly. I'll bet even with these gerrymanders, people are angry enough that they vote for Democrats across the board. My hunch is that there will be a Democratic Speaker of the House making Trump's life miserable.

NO. Even half a brain is too much.

Does anyone else keep reading $MELANIA as "SMELLania"?

Tearing it down when The Orange Slug is gone is a waste of money that we won't have. It'll be simpler, more useful, and cheaper to renovate it externally to the same classic style that the East Wing HAD, sell off all the gold garbage, and renovate it internally into offices.

Good Lord, what an idiot. I grew up in Philadelphia. The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia was founded in 1855.

Ahhh... the oratory skills of Jefferson, the wit of Lincoln, the military skills of Eisenhower, the leadership of Washington, the humanitarian empathy of Carter, the intelligence of Kennedy. Trump is truly the whole package.
