Thanks very much! :)

Absolutely, he has the best people, after all. A bigger problem seems to be finding the 500 or so people that need a senatorial vote. Looks like there aren’t that many best people.

No idea re judges, but unlike dems, they’re more than willing to do something shady. They don’t actually believe in our system of govt, they just like to exploit it for gain and power. I think that’s part of the reason so many of us don’t dare to let a day go by without an in depth news trawl.

Also thanks for the transcript, btw. I’m deaf, it’s really helpful& fleshes out the article I’d seen earlier.

Yes, I know about the interview, but I think the nominations have to be in place before recess, and very few of the hundreds have any nominee at all. I think they’re just making noise, iow. That said, I’m no expert, I could certainly be wrong.

I don’t think he can make too many recess appts, even assuming he knows what they are. My understanding is that someone has to be nominated, and he’s only nominated 2-3 dozen of the several hundred vacancies.

If trump is their best communicator they’re in big trouble.

They seem incapable of empathy, certainly. Brr.

He’s miscalculated, for every misguided fool who “loves” him, there must be 10x as many who are repulsed by him.

Baby Bush apparently did something close, exploding amphibians for kicks and giggles. They’ve been the party of sociopathy for a while now.

I can see trump going for this, though, he only sees white “normal” people. No one else exists for him because basically they’re the only ones likely to vote republican.

Trickle down economics works in one respect only: it increases income inequality by moving more money to the rich at the expense of the rest of us.

Wouldn’t he assume that any creature would love him? I’m not really disagreeing, this is just a thing I’ve not considered. I certainly can’t see him respecting an animal, as they deserve, but he respects nothing and no one, that’s why he’s so awful.

Almost worth freezing for...

You can really sense the excitement here, well done, good boy!

Even Hitler had a dog. (Cats didn’t like him, but they’re a tough crowd anyway.)

WTF?

Imagine a United States where all political parties respect science, math, history, grammar. Imagine a United States where a person’s body autonomy is never an issue, nor is skin color or what tax bracket you fall in.

You’ve given this thought.

London, not Manhattan.
