The most important thing I've learned so far this year -- major corporations will sell out democracy in an instant if they think they can profit by it. We individual citizens are on our own.

He didn't "appear to". He flat-out lied.

I'm sorry, but you're mistaken. In Trump's 1st term his buddy Putin, at a Russian gov't meeting, showed a graphic of Russian hypersonic warheads descending on Florida and Trump said nothing. (But no real American would tolerate it.)

I'm 72 and worried about the country my kids will be living in.

Thanks for asking. Doing okay so far, all things considered, but I'd like to be more optimistic about the midterms next year. I'm sure it won't be a "red wave" but I'd like to see more enthusiasm for Democrats rather than just no enthusiasm for MAGA. I really want to see a massive victory.

I am rethinking my position on the anvil, though.

I can't provide numbers, but IIRC flag burnings went way down after the Supreme Court made that ruling. But Trump is that rare combination of ignorance, incompetence, and control freak. Well, okay -- maybe not that rare.

I've pointed this out myself. Funny how it worked out that way.

They're the best thing that has happened for Aaron Burr in a long time!

Thanks! I have a strong outdoors background and a strong preference for democracy over fascism. Take care.

This will hurt them in the long run.

Great time to downsize NOAA, right Elon? But, at least FEMA will be there when we need them, right Trump?

Maybe they should worry a little less about Trump and a little bit more about their customers and communities.

Sorry to hear this. Take care.

Another way for Trump to humiliate America.

Because, Donald, her doctorate is in education. Something you know very little about.

"Disagreeing" is part of politics. If we didn't disagree, we wouldn't need politics. But abuse, threats, slander and worse are not politics. They're part of organized crime.

My understanding is that to 86 something means to dump or jettison it. I'm with the seashells.

Well, she'll be working for a convicted felon, so her husband should feel right at home.

Amazing what you can get in exchange for a plane.

Hardly surprising. Who, in this administration of billionaires, has ever been told "No" growing up? Who has ever been denied their third doll or their sixth pencil?

Well, since when has Trump ever cared about other people's safety?

I've had similar thoughts.

Where were the kids parents? Who would ever leave their kids in the care of RFK Jr.?
