that it seems "nearly normal" (as if anything in trumpistan can be normal - then again, what is normal??) - woke up to scan the news, no new trumpian disaster, nothing to make my blood boil along with the water for our coffee.
The nice big WHACK that was applied to the deplorables with regard to their DOA "health" proposal seems to be just what the doctor ordered.
Oh, I know - it is early yet, and there is plenty of time for silliness.
Yet still - good morning, DU - hope you are all well and enjoying the nice dose of Hope with your breakfast! We can do this...bit by bit, whack them down. Next course - a side (or main course) of the Russia stiff, perhaps??
