It will be interesting to see if your pessimism about the intelligence of the voting public is warranted.

Define odious.

If any other president's foundation had been found by a court to be as scammy of a fraud as trump's it would have dominated the news for months. But...

You seem to have a trumpian understanding of what foundations spend their money on.

Obviously this is a reasonable statement. I guess the only question is how one defines strong economy. I vaguely remember trump promising to bring...

Actually the market has been on an upward trajectory since Obama showed up. But I tend to agree with bae that the president has little more...

But barely. And since the last election a significant number of suburban women have apparently found him, and republicans in general, to be not...

Considering that he only got 46% of the votes I’m not sure I’d call it a large chunk of the electorate. And surely not all of his supporters fall...

It'll not be your fault when he does but assuming that you react with unconcern over the event it'll be clear that your motivations regarding perjury...

While that may be true the term seemed apt in this particular case. Another phrase that would have been accurate would be bothsiderism. When Warren...

So now that Moscow Mitch has stated publicly that he has no intention of upholding the impeachment oath he has to take can we charge him with...

I stand corrected. It would probably also be fine with them if he lied about a blowjob.

You’re right, Ldahl. republicans think it’s perfectly acceptable for a president to use foreign aid to extort an ally into assisting his re-election...

Of course not. The republicans are the anti-fact party. They know that being stupid yelling a-holes works just fine if the facts aren’t in your...

And 61 pages later, a brief summation of why the ugly orange turd needs to be impeached and removed. Personally I am still waiting for someone to...

“90’s music instead of 80’s.” That made me laugh!

We should probably close the public elementary and high schools as well. Why should I have to pay for other people’s kids to get educated?

Yep. And that was clinton's big mistake. He should've just gone all trumpy and said "eff you, ain't gonna participate." And then he would've been...

You’ve got a point. Not all of his supporters think he’s Jesus 2.0. Some of them are more likely to think he’s the second coming of strom Thurmond.

LOL. The only sympathy trump will get if/when the senate abdicates their oath to uphold the constitution will be from the 38-42% of voters that...

No kidding. The thought that we now have the birther in chief is mind boggling.

I guess I missed it in the middle of all the comments about how this was Democratic Party overreach and such?

So if it turns out that trump committed perjury in his written response To mueller are you goi g to suddenly be in favor of impeachment?

If it’s not anyone’s business why was he asked about it.

So you think what nixon did was worse than what the current president did? Or is it that you think it was wrong that nixon's presidency was forced...

So the only reason nixon was going to be impeached was because of political intolerance? That's an interesting theory. I'd love to hear more.

Perhaps someone could explain to me why medicare for all would be worse?

Personally I'm willing to cut Pete some slack. He's a politician, and if he hadn't participated in the event he would have been slammed for...

LOL. We're about 1 1/2 miles from the ocean but more than 300 feet above sea level. We won't likely ever be oceanfront (at least not in our...

An interesting study came out yesterday on this topic. Apparently the models for climate change starting decades ago were quite accurate, but for...

Why don’t you just print them to pdf? I can understand restaurant receipts since they are given to you as paper, but Uber receipts are already...

Catherine, do you actually submit paper receipts for business travel?

If the democrats do in fact hold onto the house, take back the senate, and win the presidency next year I will publicly acknowledge that Ldahl was...

Personally I hate shopping in stores so BF has always seemed like a special kind of hell to me. The idea that I would ruin a perfectly good...

People said Obama was unqualified too. How exactly does one determine ‘qualified’. Based on the requirements set forth in the constitution he’s...

I'm reminded of one of the first days of my college experience. I showed up for accounting 101 or whatever it was called and the professor made us...

This statement rings so true to me. I've always just followed whatever path seemed to make the most sense at any given point of my life and let the...

Harris is out too.

Voters getting to watch the republican led senate abdicate their oath of office by placing party above country doesn't seem irrelevant to me. ...

So apparently all of trump’s whining about not being able to defend himself was just like everything else that comes out of his mouth. Lies. Now that...

This weekend I upgraded my smartphone from an iphone 6 to an iphone 11. The 6 lasted almost 5 years and has been great. Other than spending $29 on...

At the end of the day if the only reason someone broke the law is because law enforcement tricked them into breaking a law they would not otherwise...

True. Although he’s been plenty emolument all without adding this to the equation.

It appears that they didn’t know it was fake until after they’d been scammed out of their money and gotten here. ICE was giving the earlier scammed...

Perhaps instead of creating a new fictitious university they could have just used Trump u and had the same result. But what kind of shitty...

Suzanne seems to be happy with her lifestyle so I'm not going to say it's wrong. But I will say that I have zero desire to live that way myself. If...

Btw, Alan, I'm simultaneously bummed and pleased that you didn't fall for my attempt at pushing your buttons. I promise to try harder next time.

Perhaps. Similar to that visceral thrill Republicans seem to get in denying even small necessities, like a school lunch for a kid whose parents are...

Since Geila also talks about wanting to make this their permanent house my thought was (and I'm possibly projecting here since I assume we're talking...

Feel free to disagree with any of the statements i made about him and explain my inaccuracies. I’m always eager to get a better understanding of...

You need to find better crowds to run with.

That benchmark exists because he is by far the most corrupt and incompetent president to live in the White House for at least as long as anyone alive...

Since it'll probably be a short list can you name the politicians that don't annoy you?

You probably also didn't know that pretty much the only people who didn't want him fired were corrupt people in Ukraine who were worried that if he...

Frugal, keep in mind that you’re asking that of someone who thinks jimmy carter is just as awful of a human being as trump.

There are only two types of republicans. Those that are attacking trump and those that are defending trump. I suppose there are also those that are...

Peter Wehner. Admittedly I had not heard of this guy until 5 minutes ago when this article popped up on my facebook feed, but he's a lifelong...

With the exception that the guy he wanted fired was corrupt and not a problem for Burisma and his replacement, whoever it would end up being, would...

So you think that trump extorting an ally for personal political gain is acceptable. Got it. Because given what he did your attempts to justify his...
