Sounds like he was seeking to intimidate those 10 Republicans as punishment, or maybe to do something like jury intimidation to get them to change their vote (after it was already signed by Pelosi).

Trump being in the Whitehouse these past 4 years is like these teen movies (mostly 80s films) where there parents are out of town for the weekend and their kid throws a party and invites everyone they know. Then the house gets completely trashed because everyone else turns up after the kid texted "Be there on the 6th. Will be wild!"

Looks like they lied about how much vaccine there is/was.

The lies don’t stop just because the subject is vital public health.

Were all executed actually serious enough crimes to warrant execution? I'm wondering what these were for. Trump has carried out more executions, but he's also had a slew of pardons for people who didn't warrant them either. And even the QAnon Shaman's lawyer is requesting a pardon from Trump which he'll probably grant.

Stone’s movie would play down Vladimir Putin’s involvement and be more flattering to Trump. Adam McKay’s movie would play it more for buffoonish laughs. Aaron Sorkin would be cutting and merciless.

Jay Roach could do a “Game Change” approach, where he and Julianne Moore nailed the bats**t kook Palin to a T. Humanizing Trump would be a grave mistake, much like he did with Megyn Kelly in “Bombshell.”

And that right there is why I'd watch all of them, although I don't think Stone would be as friendly to him as he was to George W. Bush.

No.

So they rushed a "pro-life" candidate to the Supreme Court, and all they've accomplished is killing more people.

It’s never been anything but “pro-birth” aka Motherhood Prison.

They don’t care about lives with their lack of gun laws and lack of mental/health care after birth, let alone financial stability for the parent(s).

Most of the most fervent antiabortion states also have the Nation's worst infant mortality rates. That is partly due to poverty, no doubt. But also to indifference. There's no real interest in keeping fetuses alive once they pass through the birth canal, not when that money can be used to attract a football coach for State U with top notch recruiting connections.

Well, they DO need to keep their priorities in order.

I am personally going to laugh my ass off at the idiot who tries to primary a Meijer here in MI. Meijer is a fairly beg name in MI. And deep pockets.

I honestly thought this was satire when I first read this. But nope its real.

Thank goodness I have other people whose job is to read 'The Art of the Deal' (1987). lol

"Even in elementary school, I was a very assertive, aggressive kid," Trump wrote. "In the second grade I actually gave a teacher a black eye -- I punched my music teacher because I didn't think he knew anything about music and I almost got expelled. I'm not proud of that but it's clear evidence that even early on I had a tendency to stand up and make my opinions known in a very forceful way. The difference now is that I like to use my brain instead of my fists."

Well there clearly isn't as much of a difference between now and then as Trump thinks.

I read that before the attack in Washington, Ivanka & Jared wanted to go south to Florida (they recently purchase a plot of land on an island off Florida) and Ivanka wanted to challenge Marco Rubio for his seat in 2022...

lemme sit down. <laugh>

Two not so-bright people in a cage fight for Florida to become the Floridaland, a new country that espoused National-anarchism (complete with the delusional Cuban & black/brown people), Friedman monetarism economic policy (if they have such capable advisers lol) and an aging Telfon Don wandering about on the street bareass naked (his brain long stop working).

I'm curious whether Trump's spawn (Ivanka) and spawn-in-law (Lara) will still to try to run for office in Florida and North Carolina. Even Mark Meadows is radioactive at this point after 1/6/21.

I really don't think the Republicans know how fractured they are until the midterms heat up.
