I think the GOP should start worrying about the mid-term elections at this point, and keeping control of the House and Senate. Actually, I am praying for that.

Don’t even get into the emails. That hypocrite Trump is still insisting on using his personal, unencrypted phone. So anyone with a Stingray device in the general area of the White House can listen in on him. I’m betting he won’t give it up because it has been customized for his tiny little hands to make it easier for…

Well the guys from Anonymous are on his case now, which I was hoping for before the election, but better late than never. When they seriously sink their teeth into something, they can be brutally effective. I just hope they have developed a clever code to let the others know if one of their own has been compromised…

I can understand “Hoping for the best” in many cases in politics. Many candidates are chameleon-like in their ways, and try to play to the room, so it can be a bit murky as to how they will actually behave once elected, and even murkier as to how they will vote. But Trump has given absolutely zero inclination that he…

No, they promptly went to work posting completely false stories about Obama and his policies, agenda, and personal beliefs on social media at a furious pace that lasted for 8 years. You also seem to have forgotten that there was a huge backlash against him and his nation of birth, led by none other than Donald Trump.…

I generally find that autocorrect does not select a non existent word like “Honered” or “Unpresidented” when it performs its functions. In fact, it tends to do the exact opposite. Autocorrect that selected nonexistent words would truly be a useless function. Trump operates on a 4th grade vocabulary, which has been…

And yet you have thrown around the new favorite insult of the Trump crowd - Snowflake - half a dozen times in 4 posts. You are right, you guys are all free, independent thinkers who walk your own path. Except that it is blatantly obvious just where your loyalties lie as soon as any of you type a few words. This is…

One small correction here - participation trophies did not become the norm until the 90's, not the 80's. As someone who participated in all manner of athletics and academic activities in the 80's, I can assure you that I have zero participation trophies, nor had I even heard of the concept until the early 90's.…

The thing is, he has phrased it that way every time he speaks on the subject. It has always struck me as odd, and honestly makes me wonder if he really believes that it works that way.

Yes, he has the right to do so. But it is a very petty person that would have someone monitoring all government web sites looking for any potential slights against their ego, and take time out of their first day in office to issue a cease and desist notice, which has now caused a Streisand effect. That is the real…

Forget Jimmy Fallon. It is amazing how many roles Michael Peña gets now that he is a Scientologist. The guy is literally in every other film that comes out. Those nut job alien worshippers can get you plugged in to Hollywood films like no one else.

He kept mentioning how Mexico “Does not send their best and brightest. No, they send the murderers and rapists....” I really wonder if he actually thinks that Mexico “sends” its people here, as in they select who they are going to send on a border dash? I am beginning to think that he believes that is how it works!…

Well, it was a bit downhill after Beyoncé, but at least she made it seem classy. Kelly Clarkson was ok I guess, but WTF was up with James Taylor? That must have been a nod to the very old Democratic donors.

After what had been called the “one of the dirtiest, meanest campaigns in American history” (until 2016, of course), Andrew Jackson threw open the door of the White House to the public after his inauguration. “The White House has seen a lot of big parties, but nothing compares to March 4, 1829, when Andrew Jackson’s…

Making America Gag Again. So much for his “Top Talent” lined up for the inauguration.

That is Trump’s plan - to inundate us with so much shit so fast that there is never time to react to it, because something worse will happen tomorrow. This has gone on since the day he announced his candidacy until now. The press just throws up their hands because they can either report today’s outrage, or dive deeper…

We knew it was not good, even in high school. But the primary theory was that once you were over puking from the headache, you were OK to play again. The scary part is that this starts in elementary school, where our brains are not fully developed, and they are not finished developing all the way through their college…

If anyone is wondering about the blue spots in the SC/GA border region that extend up to the eastern NC region, I would suspect that the very sandy soil (from an ancient sea, IIRC) in that area may make it behave more like the western US, and less like the rest of the east coast.

Exactly. These people are going to Tesla because it is the one truly revolutionary tech game that has its shit together and billions in financing to back up their sky-high plans. There really is nothing quite like it right now. Plus, these people are taking advantage of this poaching from Apple to get a major boost to…

I was wondering that as well. There never seems to be any effort made to treat an infected/inflamed appendix, at least not back in my day. I wonder if it is because it is too close to bursting by the time symptoms present themselves for most people, or if doctors still just hang on to the notion that it is a “useless”…
