Discussion: Capital Gazette: 'We Won’t Forget Being Called An Enemy Of The People'

And her sister brings Trenary toast when she visits. I love cinnamon, but…

I’m rubber, you’re glue, what you call me bounces off and sticks on you!

I’m beginning to believe Trump is living in a Rubber Universe. Take the Justin Kennedy Donald Trump Deutsche Bank thing. Whodda thunk Jared may have been the first to get involved with Justin? So will anybody be surprised to discover Trump was actually the enemy of the people all along?

The Great Orange one is the enemy of the People. Ballot box, girls and boys.

Long ago it was just the UP (you pee). Caused too many giggles, I guess.

And the upper part of the lower peninsula is called “up north.” For me, also called “home”.

Probably this is the biggest news item today. Merkel now limps into the G7 meeting beaten up by anti-immigration Bavarians.

Make America Good Again.

Vote Democratic at every election, for every office, until the Republicans stop being corrupt goons – and Trump is in jail for the remainder of his life.

It won’t bring back the dead.

But it will help.

That would require tRump to be introspective, have a soul and admit that his attacks on the media are not how he really feels- that he does that to blunt stories that paint him in a negative light. tRump doesn’t seem to have a soul, he is an empty, bottomless shell that needs to be lied to constantly to feel anything. He’s not a leader, he’s a bombthrower that cannot understand that he is too weak and cowardly to lead. He talks tough, but folds at moments when he stood face up to people he talks about on twitter. His speech to national leaders in Saudi is a perfect example. He campaigned on Obama and Clinton not wanting to say radical Islamic terror, and speaking to leaders of Muslim countries, tRump whiffed and didn’t say it either. He had them in the room, as an audience and refused to use the same words he says Democrats are too weak to say. He is spineless and a fool that can and has been manipulated by other world leaders. He’s such a fool that he doesn’t see that people are taking advantage of him the way he claims they took advantage of other presidents.

We don’t have a real president. We have a reality show fop. Dotard is a good description of this fool that we have in charge. He has a twisted world view and despite having the entire government at his disposal to better understand what’s happening around him, he relies on his own sorry logic.

One of the reporters who was killed was Rob Hiaasen, brother of the writer Carl who writes great novels about crazy goings on in Florida, and he’s on Twitter talking about his brother. He wonders if we’re all one degree away from a mass shooting.

Now, that’s not fair.

I clicked on the bait, expecting to see a vid of Merkel assaulted by brownshirts singing Die Fahne Hoch.
By the article, it seems like there was only one brownshirt, and he’s perhaps in trouble with his own partei.

However, it is Bavaria.

Probably the first time I’ve heard the state-run Deutsche Welle referred to as clickbait. In any case, here is the BBC version. Clearly, she’s not going to lose in this resignation fight, but it really doesn’t help when she is trying to talk some sense into Mango before he meets with Putin. Trump will treat this as a vindication of his policies.

We don’t need North Korea to blow us up.

Dotard is doing just fine, all on his own.

Didn’t mean to come off offensive. By your description, I was expecting fireworks, not usual German politics.

If the G7 Meeting in Canada didn’t clue her in…

Trump treats total disaster, the destruction of the Republican party, and national collapse as vindication of his “policies”.

I am beyond thinking there’s a “good side” of Trump or the Republican Leadership to which anyone (not worth many billions of dollars) can appeal. I am thinking that going to vote this November, and every time there’s an Election (or Primary) for any office is the only sensible thing to do.

Journalists and those who appreciate them should NEVER FORGET.

Carl Hiaasen is my favorite novelist, since Elmore Leonard passed. No matter how wrong things got, his writing would help push back the dark and get me laughing again.
But this is the kind of thing that can break you.

Bannon himself claims he wants to tear the Republic down.

“Lenin wanted to destroy the state and that’s my goal too,” replied Bannon. “I want to bring everything crashing down and destroy all of today’s establishment.”
