So how come we are all still slogging our guts out, working harder than ever for seemingly less and less reward..

What’s getting all of the attention is item #2 on the list, pursuing the impeachment of Donald Trump. It’s highly unlikely that the requisite minority of obedient House Republican tea-party members would defend the Constitution from a rampaging member of their own party. But theoretically it could happen at any time with the number of lawsuits and charges leveled against Trump across the country.He also wants to ditch the electoral college, which at this point makes sense considering that until 1996 it had only a 5% failure rate to deliver the most voted candidate and since 2000 has failed to deliver the elected candidate to office 40% of the time.Moore’s second list of day-after recipes for the American left to move forward isn’t strictly an anti-Trump declaration either. Beyond proposing that a swift opposition movement emerge, he also demanded a Republican-st... less

I have been through severe abuse, and had just explained that to him and how my mom bullied me, in addition to abuse. I know a 'bit' what they meant, that you have to not have it affect you anymore, but sometimes theres no CHOICE in how abuse affects you.. I just could never say to someone who said they had a lot of childhood abuse that they need to 'move on'... what would u do/say to friend who said it?

How long will it take for everyone to dump Trump? Resign so they can preserve a shred of dignity? Any bets/guesses?

He in incapable of learning anything. A brick wall. That's all. A brick wall.

Steve Bannon is one of them. Is Trump a WANNABE? How many others? Stephen Miller? Sebastian Gorak is a Nazi. Everyone knows that. How deep does it go and how far and how wide. Are we now on the brink of serious confrontation? Or just chain rattling by those greedy/needy/DESPERATE for attention?

The WHITE thems who go by various names. White Supremacists, White Nationalists, ALT-RIGHT Whites, KKK, neo-Nazis, Militia groups. Apparently they ALL showed up to show solidarity in Charlottesville but the violence aborted what they had planned. The continue planning and imply we ain't seen nuthin' yet. Now we know they are gun people aren't they? Are you a gun person? If not are you a sitting duck for those who are? How far will they go to take all of us out..all of us being the ones who aren't them, despise them, abhor them? Let's see we've had race riots in Detroit and Los Angeles and other cities at different times. Will they start wars everywhere all at once? How many of them are there? Anyone know? less

I suppose for those who think in logical sequence it is very difficult to understand someone whose thoughts come from everywhere all at once and fight for expression. I don't know why people are wired as they are. Intellectually or emotionally or morally. We do the best we can I expect and maybe it's a miracle that any of us understand any of us. Whatcha think? less

I just want to thank all of you who have joined together to educate me over the years. I've told you that individually and now I'm telling you collectively. You know who you are! At my age attending "college" daily at my convenience is beyond priceless. It's a highlight of my day. I don't know if any of you feel that way but I do and so of course I'm sharing that with you as I always do! :) less

That the people who are driven by intense emotion (like HATE) have borderline personality disorders or serious mental illness. If true that would explain a lot wouldn't it? The HATE-driven folks are not normal. Normal folks don't HATE enough to harm or hurt or kill or murder or attack. What do you think of that?
