I'm so disheartened by the Democrats that let this happen. Dems in Washington say "But he Right has control over the government. What can we do?" Nothing anymore. You missed the bus, now you walk. The time to do some was before. Again, and again, and again, and again If only I had a little sign..

Maybe the problem with Democracy is the smart people keep trying to say 'I'm smart, do what I say.' Even when someone is right, and you know it, would you listen? I'm immediately defensive against someone telling me I'm wrong. Especially when it's true. We are conditioned to not receive criticism

I hate to use such a cliche analogy, but Trump is the closest thing to The Wizard of Oz. A sad, feeble, old man desperately trying to seem powerful while practically begging you not to peek behind the curtain.

Conservatives "supporting our troops" and then idealizing Nazis and Adolf Hitler is the epitomy of cognitive dissonance. Who do you think the soldiers landing in Normandy were attacking?

The thing to remember is we survived Nixon. We can survive Trump. I mean... Nixon was a horrible criminal that was caught and exposed, then had the moral fiber and self consciousness to realize and admit his mistakes and step down... We're probably fucked.

When I was young my mommy told me I can 'Be whatever I want to be.' I'm still not a ninja, mom... I think you lied.

As an Apolitical citizen, how are you fighting back? I've seen "truth to power" but the other side is the one making moves. The left just calls foul, then stands around waiting for the ref to throw the match. There's no ref. The other side is cheating to win. And you're waiting for the rules.

My horoscope said this would happen!
