Forget about trump’s base…

Well…look…all of the hand wringing about motivating trump’s base by impeaching the idiot boy is bullshit…and even thinking about that and having it dictate our actions is even a bigger pile of bullshit….nothing, and I mean nothing that the dems do is ever going to have any damn effect on that cult of personality and hate so I say just ignore them and do what’s right for the country and for protection of the constitution…that means that impeachment has to be on the table now and forever until the criminal in chief is safely ensconsed in his cell at club fed. After the early reticenceĀ  of our leaders in congress to even put impeachment on the table, it appears that most of them have had enough of the obstruction and defiance that idiot boy has shown at every turn and Nancy Pelosi is now building the impeachment case against the whole damn lot of them including Mnuchin, trump and Barr that will convince any court that they are criminals committing criminal acts every day….a smart bit of strategy that may be taking longer than we want but will give an airtight case for removal of the lot of them….let’s just have a little patience…but just a little…impeach…

Labor deserves some thanks, too…

Well…now that the idiot trump has been slapped down by Nancy Pelosi both by depriving him his SOTU and by saying no to his stupid border wall and getting the government back open, there is another group that deserves some thanks, too…and that is the good folks who labor every day to keep this country running who just said enough of working without pay and stopped air travel on the East coast. This was the straw that got the repubs back to negotiating and shows us the path forward if this ever happens again…and one of the things we need to do as dems is to give labor and unions allĀ  of the support we can on every issue since it is the right thing to do…and will be a huge factor in recreating the middle class in this country. We are all in this re-construction together and we need to welcome all groups who want to be part of it even it they have different ideas of how to get things done…and we do need to get things done, we need to start to repair the damage that the repubs have done over the past 40 years and make sure that everyone has a chance…not just the rich and entitled…and we need to get ready for 2020 when we can use our popular message to win and transform this country…that starts now…

I know what Nancy’s doing…

Well…with rumors that idiot boy is willing to compromise to get his wall and that Nancy is going to get relief on DACA and TPS for it, I don’t like the idea that she compromises at all with the idiot trump…but I know what she’s doing, I think…look, none of us in the reality based world want one penny spent on this stupid wall…but what Nancy understands and what trump doesn’t is that any wall that can be started, can be stopped by the next administration…and it will take them 6-9 months to get the contract let and approved…with almost 60% of voters polled saying they won’t vote for a repub for president in 2020, Nancy knows we are going to have complete control of the government and one of the things she will be doing is cleaning up the repubs mess…and that will include getting rid of the idiot’s wall…and in the long game, she can let idiot boy have his face saving “win” when she wants to get the government open now and end the pain to the 800,000 workers who have been affected. So, don’t get on her too hard for dealing with the asshole…it’s 11 dimension chess to trump’s chutes and ladders…and she is going to win for all of us….impeach…

Nancy shivs the idiot…

Well…to everyone who didn’t want Nancy Pelosi as speaker of the house after last fall’s election, the only thing I have to say is open your eyes an watch a master at work. Yesterday, Nancy sent a letter to idiot boy saying that trump’s State of the Union address should be postponed until after the shutdown is over due to “security” concerns with many of the people who would be responsible out on furlough due to the shutdown. Now, this is just a masterstroke and uses the speaker’s power in a new and novel way to make the point that trump is not the one in control anymore…and that he is not getting a dime for his damn, racist wall any time soon. One neat little point that was made in the letter was that, historically, there has never been a SOTU address during a shutdown…and she even stressed the fact that most of the SOTU reports were done by letters until the 20th century…basically saying that trump could do the same thing. Now, taking away idiot boy’s chance to be the center of attention is just the best response that could have been given to the narcissistic asshole for the damage his shutdown is having on the country and I applaud Nancy for playing hardball with him….he just doesn’t understand that things have changed and his bullyboy ways just aren’t going to go anymore…get the popcorn….

A new day…

Well…the day that those of us who value good government and truth has arrived with the swearing in of the 119th congress and I can’t be happier…well…if we would have taken the senate, too, I could have been happier but I’ll take this…now, we won’t have any more of Devin Nunes carrying water for the most corrupt president in the country’s history and the cool thing is that this new House looks so much more like the country does…the true melting pot that sees many more women elected and taking their seats today…along with many more people of color and of every religion under the sun….I can’t wait for the right’s heads to explode when one of the new Muslim women elected is sworn in with Thomas Jefferson’s copy of the Koran….wearing the traditional headscarf of her religion. One little noticed detail of the dems taking control is the fact that they will also take control of all of the money that the repubs authorized to investigate Hillary and her e-mails and that 172 million dollars is now in Nancy Pelosi’s hands to do with as she pleases…and she pleases to hire many, many more lawyers and investigators to investigate the corruption that is rampant in idiot boy’s administration….and these are not the dregs of the legal profession that trump has to hire since no one wants to work for him, nope, they are the cream of the profession who want to be part of this historic take down of the cancer that is trump…I’m pretty sure that idiot boy doesn’t understand the world of hurt he is in…and that unhinged tweets won’t protect him…get the popcorn ready…this is going to be a good show…impeach…

One more day…

Well…with the crazy assed tweets from the idiot in chief yesterday and today, we can see in real time that at least a little of the world of hurt that idiot boy is in is sinking in…in one day, we take over the House and Nancy Pelosi becomes speaker again…and all of trumps repub protection goes away…and I have to admit a little bit of a smirk as I anticipate how the best speaker of the house in the past twenty years regains her gavel…and how she will wield it to make democracy work again. After 8 years of sham votes, fake investigations, and putting the repub party before the country, a new day is going to come and, as always, it is left to us dems to clean up the mess that the repubs have made with their know-nothing voodoo economics that is still beating the dead horse that tax cuts will pay for themselves…something that has never happened and never will. The list of things that need to be fixed after Paul Ryan and his cronies is a long, long one….and the difference between us and them is that we know that done right, government can make the lives of everyone in this country better…not just the 1%…I have a little hope again…but I also know the rest of the repubs will do everything they can to keep stealing for the rich…on to 2020….

Trump has his ass handed to him…

Well…it was quite a spectacle a couple of hours ago when the idiot trump invited Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to the WH to discuss legislation to keep the government open…I am still laughing that idiot boy wanted the meeting to be covered live and he thought he could bully Pelosi and Schumer to get the damn wall since he was able to do that to Paul Ryan and the rest of the repubs he has had to deal with…when he started his usual schtick of going on and on that the wall is needed to keep the country safe and that he would shut down the government if he didn’t get funding, Schumer basically said go for it and Pelosi made it clear that she understood that he couldn’t get funding for the wall passed even in current repub controlled House…and trump continued to bluster that he could get funding passed “in a minute” if he wanted to…sounding like a little kid caught in a boast that he knew was a lie and then reverted to bragging that the repubs “won” the senate..to which Schumer replied “when the president brags that he won Indiana and North Dakota, he’s in real trouble” and then manuevered trump into accepting that if the government shuts down it’s his fault…all this while Pence sat there looking like he’d rather be anywhere else and trying to stay awake…the fact is that trump is facing people who know how government works and are tougher than nails and he has no clue how to do anything but bully and bluster and lie….and he had his ass handed to him…this could be a great show…impeach…

Get rid of your best general because the other side doesn’t like her?

Well…damn, there are times when I just shake my head at the stupidity of some of the dems in the House who are saying that Nancy Pelosi shouldn’t be the next speaker of the House because the repubs will attack her…hey, guys…where the hell have you been for the last 40 years? The repubs only attack people since they have nothing else…no legislative accomplishments other than tax cuts for the rich…do you think that anyone who is a dem speaker not Nancy Pelosi won’t be attacked? Look…we won this election not on bipartisanship but on issues that matter to the people of the country…issues that the repubs don’t give a damn about but will lie through their teeth saying they will work with the dems on but why should we? They have shown they are all liars and cheats and need to be dismissed until they show by their actions that they care about making the country better for everyone…not just the rich. Until then, we just need to ignore them and everything they say…at this time in this country’s history, we need our best general running the House and that is Nancy Pelosi…she doesn’t care that the repubs don’t like her…why should we? No speaker of the House or minority leader has done more to keep the party together and get us back into power than Nancy…now we need to have her back…geez…
