Foreign policy. Is it in our foreign policy not to do business with non-democratic countries? We do business with Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, etc. 2. We don't demand that. We even support dictators with their coups, when they take down governments! Nicaragua, Honduras, etc.

At 3 am about a former beauty queen or whenever about whatever. Words of substance. Never-to-be forgotten words. Words of relevance. Shows us the complete 3-dimensional person. Also everything he said at news conferences. During the debates. At all the rallies. Calling in to radio shows and TV shows. Everything ever caught on tape. Part of the PET presidential library. Lotsa dynamic reading there. All the way back to when he said he was the best athlete in school. less

Do whatever you can get away with doing. Rake in the dough. Have a blast. That is true CAPITALISM at its best! Isn't it?

Have you ever changed your view after listening to someone who didn't agree with you? Because it made more sense, right?

It has been shown time and again that Republicans will reject what they created if someone they dislike on "the other side" embraces it. They have no shame. They never address the issue. They ignore how illogical they are. They only attack what they gave birth to if the person who agrees with them is on their "enemies" list. How does that make any sense at all? less

I know. Sometimes you change your mind. But aren't there some things that should never change? Like core values/beliefs? The "never Trump" and the "anti-Trump" folks who have since rolled over dishonor/devalue/demean their prior positions. Were they not serious then or are they just afraid now? Is it easier and safer to just capitulate to power or should you stay true to you? What would YOU do? Why? less

Whether it is sincere on the part of PET or just pretend/window dressing Mitt seems to just lap it up so he is dishing it out. If you watch/listen to what Mitt said BEFORE PET asked him to dinner and what he said after dinner #2 you'd think the guy was brainwashed/hypnotized. He was effusive and complimentary and oh so thrilled with the dinner! Geez Louise Puhleez! Talk about the worm turning that would be it. If ya haven't seen it/heard it just you wait. You will. It will be all over the news shows. less

Nothing, right? So Paul Ryan has more power than PET assuming he can get the necessary votes. Is that how things SHOULD work?

I'm not sure how seniors will be affected if the Ryan plan becomes law. It's kinda confusing. Can you tell me please what it is exactly that you dislike about Medicare and Social Security?

Do they hate PET too for his lies or forgive him those lies because they worship him so he can do no wrong in their eyes? Weird, ain't it ?
What's up with that? Also, they're moving out to a dem part of town, and taking my 2 children with them. How am I going to be able to convince my children that PET is the champ now?

In interviews and exchanges with reporters, Obama has diplomatically suggested that Trump’s learning curve is steep, but he has commended him as practical and not ideological.

The recount business has not brought out the best in anybody, and in Trump it has brought out the worst: in a series of tweets, he alleged that millions of votes were fraudulent, enough to cost him the popular vote.But none of this is going to produce any change in the results of the election.This is not Al Gore losing Florida by fewer than 1,000 votes in 2000. Trump won Michigan by about 20,000 votes, Pennsylvania by 70,000, and Wisconsin by 30,000. And it is worth noting that Stein won enough votes in Michigan and Wisconsin to account for Clinton’s losses there. Her Wisconsin application lists a number of reasons for a recount, most of which are paraphrases of a single tho... less

In the crucial swing states of Florida and Ohio, Senators Marco Rubio and Rob Portman both doubled Trump's margin in their victories. Even more bad numbers to be considered are the GOP won 21 Senate seats to the Democrats' 12, took control of 33 governorships to the Dems' 15, and took 240 House seats to 194 that went Democratic. Republicans have won House control in four straight elections and 10 of the last 12 - regardless of the fate of their presidential nominees. All sobering numbers - right down to the grass roots. less
