  • He’s already tried in the last couple weeks to tell voters to pretend he is on the ballot but is now claiming that because he wasn’t on the ballot they didn’t vote for him. They DID vote massively against him but he will never acknowledge that. Now will just have to wait to see how obstructionist he will be. Hope some GOP Senators that kept their seats will see that they need to help make things better for Americans or they could still be on the chopping block in 2 years. Aiding Trump is what got so many GOP turfed yesterday.


  • Democrats will have their work cut out for them. They will need to recruit 12 Republican Senators to have a veto proof Senate or Trump will stop each and every thing they might try to do. Their best bet is to stop ICE, fix ACA, prosecute corruption on an expedited time line, reverse tarrifs, get Citizen United cancelled, start taxing billionaires and major corporations in order to pay for American citizens services, tell Putin to get out of all of the Ukraine immediately, and tell Isreal to make the Israeli/Palestinian coalition government work. That might get them the next Presidency and keep majorities in Congress and Senate. Anything less and it’s likely GOP can gain ground.

    No one who earned minimum wage was owning homes. There were far more ft salary jobs with opportunities for advancement when the Silent Generation and then the Boomers hit adulthood. Most of those jobs included training so it wasn’t expected that everyone have a degree, masters, red seal and work experience before being hired.








  • Well racism is wrong and can be prosecuted but religion is a protected right. Not hard to understand why white racists would pivot to Christian as their cornerstone. I think all strife in the world is due to amassing power and wealth and a main tool to attain that is religion. So while I don’t support White Christian Nationalism, I do recognize that religious immigration can be another method of ‘conquering’ an area. It’s unfortunate that by trying to protect a groups religious ideals, such as head coverings for Muslim women in a western country, then makes the non Muslim women already living there a target by male Muslim fanatics.
