Speaker Pelosi tweets the single quote from today's clusterf*ck that sinks the #FakeTrumpEmergency.

He admits it's a #FakeTrumpEmergency. Hear him say it: "I *didn’t need* to do this, but I’d rather do it much faster."

I wonder,

The school idiots voted for the class clown as president,
because they didn't like change, learning new things,
or being exposed to an education,
and now, we have a circus for a school.

Hillary was wrong, they're not deplorables, they're idiots.

Because there are about 30 percent of us who are actually stupider than he is.

Honestly, you have just solved a mystery that I haven't been able to let go of until this very moment; the question of his weird and (previously) inexplicable popularity always bugged me SO much, but you've answered it. It feels as though an itch has just been scratched. Thank you!

It's the only explanation that makes any sense to me.

adolf hitler only had 32% of the vote in the late 20s. He dropped to 28% in 1932 when he was inexplicably handed the reins of power, if I remember correctly.

It seems that 1/3 barrier is all any vicious dictator needs to overcome to be successful - as long as they can cobble together whatever strategy they need to get them over the top. Brown shirts in the street. Cheating. Foreign agent for a hostile power who hacks into our electoral system and can reverse election results.

This frightens me.

Where one tenth of one percent of the citizens control over half the wealth.

The pie is finite. Their share is drastically reducing our share. Enough is enough.

Tax their asses off and if they don't like it confiscate ALL their wealth. That might sound too harsh to some but considering what their greed has done and is doing to our nation it isn't harsh enough, IMO.

They've turned democracy into capitalism and capitalism into a game of Monopoly.

Billionaire is obscene. They're the winners. All the rest of us are the losers.

Or at least that portion who voted for him.

Long-term damage has been done. You can't count on us to be reliably sane anymore.

thought I was hearing finger nails scratching on the chalk board, and couldn't take the sniffling between each word of the insanity dribbling out from his mouth that was being generated from the traitors mind.........................so that he could continue with is deflection, through the media, and the media not asking him what happened in Helsinki, to really watch his head explode ....................of him having committed treason
