Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumHubby just moved from Warren to Biden...
Hubby and I have been backing separate candidates for the first time ever... but today he has decided he is taking Biden to caucus.. I asked him why.. and he says that the thing he wants to see most now.. is Biden frog marching Trump out of the White House on inauguration day..I had to smile..That image is settling into my the head also.. Joe and Jill.. shoveling the Donald and Melania out of there..a blue sky day.. with the mall filled up as far as the eye can see.. no rain, just sun shining through.. and those two flying off to NY to face the SDNY.. after he has been impeached by the house.. even better.. wipe his reign of terror over the world and embracing of dictators out..
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

(130,156 posts)Wish I could be there, where I was (when 'W' was inaugurated and my office-buddies watched Penna Ave out of our windows, sadly.)
Retired now and in suburb, but then LATER, SPRINGtime, may return to DC for Cherry Blossoms!

(22,836 posts)The only time I was ever in DC was in July.. and that is a special kind of hot that is hard to describe.. I did not realize that part of the mall in DC was built on a tidal plain for real till we went out there in July.. "Drain the Swamp" takes on a whole new meaning in July..

(130,156 posts)and office only a few blocks from cherry blossoms. Walked over to see them most years! Sadly only a couple times since retired (and moved out, to suburbs,) and NEVER since the tramp's been in/near the WH.
Have some sweet memories (and photos) of daughters with me @ cherry blossoms, and once with our new pup.

(22,836 posts)he was attending Johns Hopkins.. took the train to see the cherry blossoms, and he said the crowds were unbelievable the day he went.. I am looking at a print of a painting a couple hundred years old over my desk that I bought at the Smithsonian from their Japanese exhibit they had that year.. and it is cherry blossoms..

(130,156 posts)As not possible to plan for either good weather OR for peak bloom, I can't advise on how to figure it out; just GO, when you can!

(9,631 posts)It was a cold, wet day with GWB marching down Pennsylvania Avenue with that peculiar, stiff gait of his - almost like he left the coat hanger in his jacket.
It was depressing to watch but nothing like January of 2017.

(560 posts)How awesome would it be if the Manhattan DA, the New York AG, and the Justice Department all announced imminent indictments against him on January 19th, to be unsealed the moment he leaves office and can be prosecuted. It would be worth the risk of him resigning and getting a federal pardon from Pence just to destroy his final days. I'm sure the State of NY has plenty to go on and they can request federal records, too, should he get a pardon.

(22,836 posts)how exactly MFA works.. but he said he cannot sit on his hands and watch another complete obliteration of someone as what happened to HRC and McCain.. we did not agree with McCain politically, but his sacrifice as a war hero and prisoner being so denigrated by the right just made both of us so sick..

(54,255 posts)First of all, I don't think there will be any frog marching.
OK, I'm sure that was hyperbole.
But it does bring the question "Does his thinking mean that a man would be more able/likely to frog march someone than a woman?"
Maybe it's just me, but that's the vibe I get.
