It means later on he can marvel at the genius of a man (Pres. Poutypants) who has figured way to have a third term.

He can assure us just how astounding it is to have such an incredible mind & how proud he is to be a part of it to figure out how to continue running this great country.

These people have a short term gain of finances, but long-term, no have problem of there being hours of videos of them being lying scumbags.

Whatever wealth amassed is not gonna save you from history looking back and seeing what sleazy liars you were.

Scalise: "If it was about healthcare, they wouldn't be gutting $50 billion out of the rural healthcare fund." (The bill he's referring to cuts *$1 trillion* from Medicaid)

Nearly 104,000 mail-in ballots were rejected in 2024 because they arrived too late. A new USPS policy initiated under Trump’s first Postmaster General could lead to millions more being rejected in 2026 — and it’s Trump’s rural voters who’ll be impacted most.

It’s like he has learned (relearned) a new word to him and he is proud to say …repeatedly.

Merit
Like nobody else in the room knows what it means & he is wicked smaaart for using it.

Like Groceries an old term.

His decline in awareness & language as well as comprehension & coherency is alarming.

Trump to troops in Japan: "Unlike past administrations, we will not be politically correct. You don't mind that, do you? When it comes to defending the US we're no longer politically correct. We're gonna defend our country any way we have to and that's usually not the politically correct way"

Let’s put a number on the amount of division so it can be discussed
in excruciating detail
if it fluctuates at all because
they hope it captures attention and makes $$.

Division sells

Plus real journalism is so much harder….

Many can’t pass the test to become an agent so they have to get detailed instructions from somewhere.
Not exactly the most imaginative or intellectually curious group of people.

In comments to reporters Monday, President Donald Trump did not rule out running for a third term — something the Constitution explicitly prohibits. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

She barely finish a coherent comment.

Pluh-leeze
She does not get to judge fake versus real.

She fought a manufactured fake war on Christmas b/c she decided an imaginary character was white because she wanted him to be & insisted we all had to agree with her.

Her reality is sketchy & entirely made up of whatever makes her $$.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

I have been reading old articles from when my children were small about never use shame it’s bad for kid’s development.
It’s been on my mind.
Using shame to discipline bad but assholes never taught some degree of public shame for being assholes means a world of shameless assholes.

I would like to see state level too. Mayors, governors, state representatives sit together and talk about the Dems plan for your state.
How will you face Trump and this administration.

Even Dems at State levels talking with other states.

Let people see the discussions, organization & teamwork.

I would like them to get together every Dem available and discuss what they want to do for this country.

What are Dems thoughts and plans for the future. Let the people hear you all discuss it.

Preferably when they can pan a camera over to empty seats of Republicans b/c they are on vacation.

You’re a hedge fund manager who rents farmland to soybean farmers. You’re profiting off their hard work while sipping champagne with billionaire elites & kissing Donald Trump’s boots.

You haven’t earned the title of “farmer” you hack.

Trump Treasury Sec. Bessent says he's felt 'pain' from China because he's a 'soybean farmer'

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's estimated hundreds and millions of dollars in wealth includes soybean and corn farmland in North Dakota.

We used to hand out stickers, pencils etc and candy .
One year my kids raided their own collections of stickers to let kids choose from b/c we were out but kids remembered the house with stickers.

No idea why Reeses cups, Hershey’s etc were turned down for stickers and small toys etc.

The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.
