so, let's say doug jones wins against asshole. jeffie gets fired. dems gain control

[niyad]

of senate by one vote in 2018.

and it will be all dolt45*'s fault for taking jeffie out of his safe seat.

sometimes one is amused.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. YES.......but first he has to WIN. n/t

[niyad]

3. one lives in hope!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. Oh yes, we do!

But to be on the safe side, I just sent some $$ to Doug Jones!

[underthematrix]

2. If Doug Jones wins in Alabama

it could mean a lot more than just winning a seat. Since Doug Jones is a conservative Democrat (REAL Christian with a REAL moral compass) I think other conservative Dems could win Senate seats in deep red states.

I think we could pick up at least seven seats.

[onenote]

14. which seven?

[IronLionZion]

16. I hope some Democrat defeats Ted Cruz

I see Senate elections in Mississippi and Tennessee, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska for 2018

4. I have a likely scenario

Trump will watch "A Fish Called Wanda," order his staff to find Otto, bring him back from being justice minister of Apartheid-era South Africa to be our new Attorney General. Imagine his bitter disappointment when he is told that the character is fictional, and is therefore unavailable to take the position.

[niyad]

5. and I thought my imagination was warped!!

[groundloop]

8. Yeah, I can't even come close to that.

18. Once upon a time I read a very insightful book:

In the places I go there are things that I see
That I never could spell if I stopped with the Z
I'm telling you this 'cause you're one of my friends
My alphabet starts where your alphabet ends

(Because most people stop with the Z--but not me!)

7. What was the second thing...? n/t On edit ...

... it should have been "what was the thing in the middle ...?" My memory is getting bad...

[DFW]

19. What thing in what middle?

It's almost midnight here in Sprout City, so I'm turning in anyway. You have a few hours to contemplate.

[Whiskeytide]

22. In AFCW, when Otto was given alternatives ...

... about something in a conversation, he would look inquisitive and say “what was the thing in the middle?” , or “what was the middle thing?”

Somehow that struck me as one of his funniest quirks. But I have a weird sense of humor.

[DFW]

23. And I have a bad memory

I don't even remember that scene. But then, people get to call me stupid with far less dire consequences.

9. If Trump pushes Tillerson out and replaces with Pomeo numnuts could pick another Senator

for CIA

What could go wrong with that lol

[getagrip_already]

11. presser at 3:30...

expect both tillerson and sessions out. possibly one other.

just a hunch, but trump doesn't call pressers unless there is a bug in his bonnet, and kelley may not be able to contain him any longer.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

10. By "jeffie gets fire" do you mean Jeff Sessions?

Do you really think Trump will do that?

[getagrip_already]

12. yupp...

maybe in 15 minutes.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

13. Did I read at some point

that several cabinet members have mutually agreed that if one is fired they all resign? And if that's accurate, is Sessions one of those?

The scary and sad thing is that Trump will no doubt find someone even worse to nominate to that position.

[getagrip_already]

15. I think I heard....

kelley would resign if he wasn't consulted on firings, but hadn't heard it went beyond that.

[tclambert]

17. Suicide Pact!

Tillerson, Mnuchin, and Mattis. Sessions may not have joined their alliance. Jeffie, if you haven't joined an alliance, you could get voted off the island.

[trof]

21. Nobody likes Sessions.

[Thinkingabout]

20. Another dumb move by Trump, the first was rolling down the escalator and announcing

his presidency, the second could be naming Sessions as AG and opening this position for a nut job like Roy Moore to run for it.
