Ponder this. Today Trump is in a courtroom for committing fraud. The House GOP is imploding. And President Biden is lowering drug prices for millions.

[Think. Again.]

1. We chose well.

[Beartracks]

19. And they chose... poorly.

Not just their candidate, but their overall path.

==========

[Think. Again.]

23. Yep...

...that's why they're republicans. It's what they do.

[TSExile]

2. This whole day sounds like a Taylor Swift song.

They all did it to themselves. Serves them right!!

[JohnSJ]

3. And the national polls show him in a tie with President Biden. How sick is that? We should be

ahead by double digits. Something is very wrong

[Hermit-The-Prog]

6. The electorate is disinformed.

[japple]

8. The electorate is disinformed and the polls are skewed....

and if we don't get out the vote in 2024, we are SCREWED!

[Sky Jewels]

27. Disinformed ... and willfully ignorant and stupid.

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

28. and 40% are amoral

[Hermit-The-Prog]

29. There is a good sized group who are just uninformed, therefore reachable.

[Solomon]

18. White supremacy is a hell of a drug.

[modrepub]

4. All Great Points

But guess which item the M$M will not cover.

[Fla Dem]

5. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise...... NBC News covered it in their 2nd half.

Not in effect until 2026.

[calimary]

7. ...and it's only Tuesday.

My favorite, though:

20. ROFL

[MustLoveBeagles]

26. LoL 😂

[Torchlight]

9. If I tilt my head just so, I can hear idiots whispering this is bad news for Democrats.

I guess they're the sacrifical troops, the first wave throwing anything at the wall hoping it sticks at the expense of their own credibility.

[agingdem]

12. Damn those united Dems!!!!

[agingdem]

10. and the speaker pro-tem is kicking Nancy Pelosi out of her office...

because Pelosi's office is the only reason the party of sewer-scum Trump/Gaetz/Jordan/Boebert/Greene/Comer/Gosar is on life support...

Jeffries/Swalwell/Raskin/Mostkowitz/Garcia/Schiff/AOC/Crockett/Aguilar/Connolly are going to tear this new guy into teeny tiny pieces...looking forward to it...

[Shanti Shanti Shanti]

11. Perfect time for China to invade Taiwan, chaos

[flashman13]

15. I've certainly been thinking along those lines myself. Disclaimer: I'm not a militarist

and I think we could be safe with much less military spending. But, having said that: It's a hard cruel world with lots of bad guys out there.

The Republicans, single-handedly, have seriously damaged the security of the country. Tommy Tuberville has declared war on the officer corp with his holds just to get his 15 minutes of camera time. That action creates a certain amount of chaos in the system because there can be doubt as to who has what kind of authority. It also really undermines military families. I am absolutely sure that Trump has put General Milley and his family in mortal danger. And now the Congress is more or less paralyzed because the small Repug majority in the House has become completely dysfunctional. Today they fired the Speaker for the crime of keeping the government alive for another 45 days. The first time ever a Speaker went down in a vote of no confidence. What kind of effect do you think constant threats to the paychecks of government employees, civilian and military, has on morale? It isn't good. A demoralized military is bad on many levels.

Security wise we are at a low point. What better time for China to invade Taiwan? Xi has serious problems of his own, and there is nothing like a good old fashion war to recover lost lands to rally the people and make them forget that their economy is crashing hard. They can't do it from a cold start, so we will see them preparing. That will give us time to dither trying to get our act together. Before the President can do anything, he must have the Congress sign off. Yeah, right? When we do put the contingency plans into action, the system could be sluggish because some of the wrong people are in the wrong pigeon hole. Speed will be of the essence. Good luck on that.

At least if it comes to an invasion of Taiwan, we will know who to blame. Not that that is going to make any difference. The idiots could blunder us right into a real disaster.

End of rant.

[LaMouffette]

21. At least, thank God, Joe Biden is president, and if the shit hits the fan in Taiwan or elsewhere in

the world, we have a competent, intelligent, America-loving president, not a dictator-hugging, narcissistic, sociopathic "moran."

[canuckledragger]

13. No wonder the various social media right wing troll farms are going nuts

... they're all desperately doing damage control with enough gaslighting to ignite a sun!

[dflprincess]

14. And for some of us,

the Twin breaking an 18 game playoff game losing streak was the cherry on top! (Baseball fans will understand.)

[Recycle_Guru]

16. Democrats in disarray

per some folks I've seen.

[rpannier]

17. That was my first thought

It's obviously further proof of how disarrayed the Democrats are

[2naSalit]

24. And continuing to cancel student loan debt!

Among myriad other things that need to be done.

[elleng]

25. Excellent.

OPM's been negotiating drug prices for Federal employees for a LONG time, as I recall; hence my
prescriptions are well under control.

[live love laugh]

30. AND clearing more student loans.
