Sure, Trump can veto, but this is a mandate. Let this sink in: With a House majority this large, Democrats wouldn't need a SINGLE Republican vote to pass legislation in the House. Not one!

Mr. Mindless and Vindictive Veto.

If this were World War II, then the Allies have just invaded North Africa.

It's still a long haul to Berlin, kids.

Do it and guarantee that Dems will get the White House in 2 years.

Works for me. We will keep the ballroom (do we have any choice?) But. Cannot wait to see all that tacky fake gold ripped off the walls and his name taken off of the buildings, etc.

I hope his planning involves ingesting a shit-ton of Fentanyl.

Knock it down, replace it with the east wing. It is a permanent stain on the country.

Orange Adolph needs to be fitted for an extra extra extra extra extra extra large jumpsuit . Might take the months to gather the material needed to make it.

Nope.

It's useless.

The fastest Russian missile is the Avangard (Hypersonic Glide Vehicle), which can reach speeds of up to Mach 27 (roughly 33,000 to 33,300 km/h or over 20,500 mph).

No time to blink much less get down there....

I'd say just miles from Paris.

Tuesday was more than an average voter swing. Americans are engaged. They now realize their votes matter. We're in a whole new ballgame.

Hell, down here in TN, Marsha Blackburn only won her governer's race by 2.5%. Normally it's 60-40ish, R. The Dem only lost because conservative groups financed an independent candidate who got over 100,000 votes.

Things are changing here too. The large growth here, unlike Northern MAGAts moving to FL, make six figures and are highly educated. Tuesday night's results reflect that.

Don't be surprised when TN goes blue too. It's coming.
