Well…you know what we are going to see for the next 6 months? the dying throes of tumpism that is going to do significant damage to this country that, of course, the dems are going to have to clean up…like after every damn repub administration. The numbers don’t lie if trump does…the latest polls have the idiot boy down by 11 to Biden and in the swing states, trump is down in every one….and it appears that, cross our fingers, that we could pick up 6 senate seats and keep the house…in Arizona…dem Mark Kelly is up by 13 over the universally hated Martha McSally and who could ever have seen that even 4 years ago? Even #richmitch McConnell is in a dead heat with his dem challenger in Kentucky and the Lincoln project has just hit him with their first ad and it’s a beaut…and what about Susan Collins…the senator responsible for Kavanaugh being on the supreme court and trump not being convicted in the senate? Well…she’s down by 9 points to her likely dem challenger and is the most hated senator in the country…behind Mitch of course. So, does this sound like good news? It appears that all of the enablers of trumpism are in trouble for the fall…but damn, why do we always have to come in and fix everything? I really believe that things are changing and the repubs are only looking to the past which should doom them for at least the near future…after all, how many people do you know that think that women shouldn’t have access to birth control? That is still being fought today in the guise of “religious freedom” and how damn backward is that? It’s surely not a winning strategy in 2020…but, keep it up repubs, I want every damn one of you gone forever…

It’s impeachment day…one last chance repubs…
Well…today is the day that the totally unfit lying cheater is going to be impeached for his total obstruction of the lawful duty of the House to do it’s job of oversight of the executive branch…and covering up his crimes and extortion in Ukraine to get them to help him cheat in the 2020 election…and you know I have talked about the 50 other things he could be impeached for…I mean, paying a 2 million dollar fine for using his “charity” as a slush fund for his campaign, something that should be enough to throw anyone out of office but his protectors in the senate are just as corrupt so he will escape conviction and removal. I have only one thing to say to the repubs that are fully behind trump and his criminality…today is your last chance…your last chance to uphold your oath to the constitution…your last chance to show that you put the country ahead of your own power and party…and your last chance to show you are a true patriot, no matter what the consequences. This is something that only one of the parties in this country understands…and it is the dems to a person who understand the danger that trump and his criminality poses to this country and even those in trump leaning districts are going to do their duty even though it may mean they will lose their seats in 2020. What this means to us in the fact based world is that we need to work even harder to protect these protectors of the constitution and to make sure that the idiot trump’s enablers, Moscow Mitch and Lindsey Graham are sent to the scrap heap where they belong…and their legacies are only that the two of them helped trump damage this country every damn day….they all need to go if they can’t escape the cult of the repub party….this is the last time I’ll say this…impeach!
Don’t send the articles…
Well….with the promises by “Moscow” Mitch McConnell that he is going to rig the impeachment trial in the senate and “coordinate” everything with the defendant, I think the dems should not play his game and keep the articles of impeachment in the House…and re-open the investigations into trump and his minions criminality. If they want to not do their duty to the constitution and protect this country, we don’t need to go along with it…we can drag the impeachment out until the election if necessary and continue to expose just how corrupt trump and the repubs are…and that would allow us time to get subpoenas through the courts…and even if the trump packed courts destroy the constitution by refusing to enforce them, the process will expose the black heart of the repub party and give us a better chance to win in 2020. I think what is necessary now is to use all of the tools that we have available to take the long view…the impeachment inquiry hasn’t hurt the dems one bit and being able to show that we are the serious party just trying to protect this country will resonate with the people in our party that we need to turn out in 2020….and if we do turn out, we will win…
They have to take an oath…
Well…to show just how corrupt Mitch McConnell is, you just have to look at the oath that all senators have to take before the impeachment trial starts that requires them to be “impartial” during the proceedings. Does ole Mitch think that if he announces to one and all that he will coordinate with trump and the WH during the trial that that is okay since he announced it before the trial? How can it even appear that he is impartial if he has already made up his mind and has promised trump he has nothing to worry about with a trial? I wonder what John Roberts, the SC chief justice, is going to do when one of the dems files a complaint about ole Mitch’s “impartiality” and demands that Mitch recuse himself because there is no damn way that he is going to be impartial and is going to violate his oath as soon as he opens his mouth? Will Roberts risk what little respect he has left and his legacy just to help Mitch keep trump in office? Sadly, I think the court has been so corrupted by Mitch’s blocking of Merrick Garland from the court and it’s packing with ideologues by Mitch that Roberts is just going to give up and go along…and that is one thing I don’t understand…how supposedly respectable judges and legislators have trashed themselves for trump when they have to know he is the worst of the worst and they could actually burnish their reputations by standing up to the orange menace and protecting the constitution…but, they don’t and a more craven bunch of fools I have never seen…geez….
Politics noodling…
Well…running late for this one today after working on the house for 4 hours again today…but I did want to do a political one…don’t really have a big topic but I think I’ll noodle about some stuff I read today…don’t remember who the pollster was but there is one who is working on the swing states and has found a couple of things…that demographic changes that have happened since 2016 have taken away the razor thin trump advantages in three states he needs to win…especially in Michigan where suburban women are becoming more and more appalled with the idiot trump’s racism but the idiot is too damn dumb to understand that appealing only to his base is a losing strategy for 2020….ole Mitch McConnell is starting to feel the heat for his putting Russia ahead of the US by blocking every election security bill that has been sent to the senate by the House…calling them “partisan” so he won’t even put them up for a vote…he even went on the senate floor the other day to whine about being called “#moscowmitch” for not doing a damn thing to protect our elections from the Russians…oh, and he worked hard to remove sanctions from one of the Russian oligarchs who worked with trump to steal the election just so he would “invest” 200 million dollars in an aluminum plant in McConnell’s home state…a reward to ole Mitch for lifting the sanctions…or no, a bribe to Mitch to get him to free up billions in sanctions on the oligarch…but no, he’s not in bed with the Russians…don’t believe your lyin’ eyes…geez….
