This is going to be a doozy of a season ... lets get it started with one of my two favorite dems ... what a great gal and one awesome public servant ... she has such an uncanny ability to connect with the common folk ... I really hope no one takes this out of context ...
Best of all, it is entirely factual. Clueless Pelosi doesn't understand the way the lockdown is strangling the livelihood of Americans who don't live in $8-million mansions with $24,000 refrigerators.
The Democrats have been playing class warfare games for a century, even as the plutocracy has become their funders and puppet masters. They think they have immunity. They are very wrong.- Thomas Lifson
Well they just need to pick themselves up by their bootstraps! This sitting around waiting on socialism is getting old. Their jobs are gone and we are in lock down to save lives, so they will need to invent new incomes. Have you seen the ads republicans are running against Trump? I'll see if I can find them for you
I won't watch the ads. It's always bothered me that campaigns focus on the negatives of the opponent instead of what they--themselves--have to offer to our country or local government. Dirty.
They're not even funny anymore. There were some good ones back in the day. I remember when Dewine was running against John Glenn and had the Energizer Bunny "keep owing and owing and owing".
And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul. - John Muir
DNC Chair Tom Perez says Dems will hold a traditional convention in August despite coronavirus fears
Quote:
“We’re planning for an in-person convention and hoping for an in-person convention but we’re also — and this is what preparedness is about — we’re planning for every other contingency,” Perez said. “I think we’re going to be able to have an in-person convention by the time we get to August 17 and I’m looking forward to it.”

I have admired some presidents simply by their conduct in office. Even though I may not have gone along policy wise.
I doubt there is a perfect candidate for any single individual. Myself I am both conservative and liberal. It depends on the policy and what I believe.
trump's personal conduct as a human being is repulsive. His lack of decency deplorable. His manor of dealing with people and his language demonstrates a total lack understanding what the office stands for.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
Doubled the debt is on there too. LOL Even prior to COVID trump was bringing us to brink of ruin financially at a rate far faster than President Obama. But suddenly it’s not important.
Did he not double the debt? ... he spent like a drunken sailor ...
I thought facts were what mattered ... oh that’s right your part of the one way street gang ...
While O was doubling the debt i never got a penny but my health insurance quadrupled + .... at least Trump’s drunken sailor spending has put some money in my pocket ...
And maybe if O didn’t let the military go further in the crapper Trump wouldn’t have had to spend a trillion to restore it ...
You forgot the one about mustard. Or the flag pin or how he honored the flag with hands behind his back or about the one dude who threw him a fundraiser or JADE HELMS and WALMART COMING FOR YOUR GUNS FEMA CAMPS!
I thought facts were what mattered ... oh that’s right your part of the one way street gang ...
No Facts definitely do not matter. Not since Trump got elected.
But just for fits and giggles let's pretend like a Trump supporter cared and let's look at the numbers. Perhaps we can even put them into context? Obama inheriting an economy that was in the worst recession since the Great Depression - Trump inheriting a very strong economy. So good that - when you compare Obama's trend's to Trump's trends (before the Coronavirus struck) the trajectory of all the major indices are virtually a straight line (meaning Trump is continuing to do as well as Obama in most cases).
Donald Trump: Trump plans to add $4.832 trillion to the debt in his first term.8 That's a 24% increase from the $20.245 trillion debt at the end of Obama's last budget for FY 2017. If he remains in office for a second term, he plans to add $8.3 trillion for both terms. Trump had promised to eliminate the debt during his campaign.
FY 2021 - $1.177 trillion projected FY 2020 - $1.181 trillion projected FY 2019 - $1.203 trillion FY 2018 - $1.271 trillion Barack Obama: Added $8.588 trillion, a 74% increase from the $11.657 trillion debt at the end of Bush’s last budget, FY 2009.
FY 2017 - $671 billion FY 2016 - $1.423 trillion FY 2015 - $327 billion FY 2014 - $1.086 trillion FY 2013 - $672 billion FY 2012 - $1.276 trillion FY 2011 - $1.229 trillion FY 2010 - $1.652 trillion FY 2009 - $253 billion. Congress passed the Economic Stimulus Act, which spent $253 billion in FY 2009.9 This rare occurrence should be added to President Obama's contribution to the debt.
George W. Bush: Added $5.849 trillion, a 101% increase from the $5.8 trillion debt at the end of Clinton's last budget, FY 2001.
FY 2009 - $1.632 trillion. This was Bush's deficit without the impact of the Economic Stimulus Act. FY 2008 - $1.017 trillion FY 2007 - $501 billion FY 2006 - $574 billion FY 2005 - $554 billion FY 2004 - $596 billion FY 2003 - $555 billion FY 2002 - $421 billion

The more things change the more they stay the same.
You're setting the bar a little high for a president aren't you?
Yeah, the scandal-free president was just right for democrats.
There is a bit of truth to a few of the things in there.. unfortunately it's lost buried under a whole lot more crap that was investigated and resolved or was just a plain conspiracy theory from the beginning.
