This is huge! Trump is ramming his agenda through now, so he can’t be stopped later—shock & awe. But look at these approval numbers—he’s underwater on our major issues. Public opinion is against Trump & his policies—his approval rating is historically low. It’s only going to get worse… MUCH worse.

16th day of Black History Month quote from Mr Baldwin is one I think applies to the last week, given what we witnessed in Europe. The ignorance of those who spoke for the current admin was on full display for the entire world. Walk back of ill timed statements, the lies, undermined negotiations…

Where does the accumulated debt of this country come from? It comes from Republican presidents. So much for Republicans being the party of "fiscal responsibility"; they will gladly drive up the debt if it means they can pass a Tax Scam for their billionaire friends and corporations.
