"SNIP.....

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi will escalate her caucus’ anti-Mitch McConnell messaging this fall, testing a theory that this can be more effective than just continuing the party’s anti-Trump rhetoric,” Axiosreports.

“Democrats are still divided over how much to focus on President Trump ahead of the 2020 elections — and they’re aware that “Trump fatigue” could mean that their attacks will bring diminishing returns.”

“Pelosi has relentlessly reminded her House colleagues that Democrats regained the majority in 2018 by focusing on the issues, not by bashing Trump.”

I just questions how many of our dem politicians at every level really see what is happening.. REALLY the horror of what those fuckers are truly about...

I sure hope they do....

But in my view there will be no comeuppance, no trials, no witnesses, no arrests of the guilty, no rule of law (there certainly is no rule of law right now),

they are about to start a war with iran... why? really why???
followed by martial law?, arrests of anybody who protests?

Think for a second.. what are the REAL reasons "trump' is doing his shit with the homeless in LA??? They must be many-layered....not the least of which is intimidating another helpless group..

I could go on, but what do I know...

look, drumpf is a self-bashing machine. every time he does something he makes it worse for himself and he's already underwater.

Frankly our candidates could just sit there all day talking about how awful he is but they don't really need to, and the more mature we act, the worse drumpf looks. and people won't vote for us if they think "well, all they have is they hate drumpf". Rethugs come out in droves on the belief of "the Dem candidate is horrible" but that doesn't work the other way around.

McConnell on the other hand has largely flown under the radar and is nearly as bad as drumpf. Any kind of restoration of sanity in DC involves getting rid of drumpf #1 but moscow mitch is a close second. the electorate needs the idea of how awful he is planted in their collective consciousness.
