"In short, I think Republicans are about to feel a whole lot of hurt in November.

The mission creep is to protect the top of the ticket in hopes that the trickle down will save his loyal enablers in the Senate.

Sometimes it works that way.

Right now Lindsay Graham is in possession of the package that Devin Nunes received vis-a-vie Giuliani and his Ukrainian contact re dirt on Hunter Biden which, I'm assuming, is the "October Surprise."

However, reports have leaked out that the so-called "dirt" is pretty weak sauce which will probably backfire on Trump's enablers in the Senate.

If there is an "October Surprise" it'll probably just look like another Hail Mary.

BRUCEAZ

TMI ~~Too much information.

BRENNNN

"All of these guys seem to turn into doomsayers and know the future and yet cannot solve the problems at their feet."

They don't see a problem ~ at their feet or anywhere else.

Total assimilation into Trump's autocratic world of hammer vs nail is complete.

MAD

"Too bad Pence is a disappointment to manhood."

Plastic figures often miss their mark.

We have no choice now but to believe that the GOP does not want a "stabilized" America, in keeping with Trump's plan for a permanent autocratic America in his second term.

Trump, with the help of the U.S. Senate, has been working on "destabilization" since his first day in office. The Covid-19 pandemic fell right into his lap. America has never been more "destabilized."

Isn't it a bit naive to think the GOP, including Trump and the Senate, would do anything other than capitalize on the chaos they worked so hard to create.

With 88 days to go, isn't it obvious that the GOP, including Trump and the Senate, would benefit from even more "destabilization," ~~ not less.

And, with 88 days to go, aren't they desperate enough to tap dance on the edge of a ledge to pull it off?

ZETALEPH

"This lawsuit is attempting to disband an entire organization in what is clearly a case of prosecutorial abuse for political ends."

Oh lookie here. ZETALEPH is a walking billboard for Wayne LaPierre.

The only thing clear about this lawsuit is the need to cut off the heads of the snakes ~~ all of them.

The NRA has lost the privilege of being called a non-profit. Don't blame the judge. Blame LaPierre and his enablers.

DANNI

"Is there any law that prevents him from doing so?"

Not that I'm aware. Only good manners and too much class to wallow in Trump's pig pen, I suppose.

Sometimes silence is golden.

Actually PHESTER, she is on topic and I agree with her. There's no question whose orders they were following and the U.S. is complicit by association, at least.

"Fox News anchor Sandra Smith, pointing out that comments by Trump have gone against the guidance of administration officials Dr. Deborah Birx and Dr. Anthony Fauci, asked if the president is "listening to the advice of health experts that he has at his side?"

"He is and they should be listening to him as well," Conway responded.

Conway forgot to add "Or else!" at the end of her response.

They were carrying forensic tools.

"The attorney general of New York took action Thursday to dissolve the National Rifle Association following an 18-month investigation that found evidence the powerful gun rights group is "fraught with fraud and abuse."

My first thought: I wonder if Oliver North feels vindicated?

DEREK

Yeah, "convoluted."

That's the most time I want to waste on anything Trump says.

SNOOFY

"Why don't Republicans offer $750 then????"

Republicans are horrified (and mortified) that $750/week would create a sub-culture of people living high on the hog with that much money. You know the type. They waste money on things like shoes for the kids . . . or a lavish evening out to dinner Taco Bell . . . or ground sirloin hamburgers in the back yard instead of ground chuck.

One thing Republicans know about these lazy lay-abouts is that they have no sense of fiscal responsibility when it comes to wasting taxpayers' money. They've even been known to treat the kids to a double dip ice cream cone after church on Sunday.

Too bad Chief Justice Roberts isn't free to announce in public how disappointed HE is with Trump's anti-constitutional administration.

SNOOFY

"Did those silly Democrats raise taxes on the Job Creators so high that they all moved to China?"

Wait a minute. Are you saying they're still there?

Did Trump lie when he told us that they were all moving back to America?

CATDOG

"Does this mean I've been mis-pronouncing 'Covfefe'?"

Don ask me. I don't even know what that is.

DONNER

"Trump talks nonsense on everything.
The man is a complete moron."

He never misses an opportunity to stir the pot.

SYCOPHANT

VISITOR is a contrarian. He's trying to start an argument. Ignore/plonk.

Another dumb "Dan (potatoe) Quale" moment.

LOL ~~ Trump was pronouncing it phonetically.

Republicans up for re-election in November do have some motivation to expand unemployment. It's not "If" it's "how much."

This in contrast to Donald Trump who prefers people to be demoralized, penniless and homeless ~~ (except for his oligarchs, of course) ~~ in his second term.

As a newly minted autocrat he will then have the whole United States begging for whatever crumbs he decides to throw their way depending, of course, on how much asskissing he gets for his effort.

The line starts at the "servants entrance" behind the White House.

CHUFFY @ #14

"actually chooses to eat McDonalds."

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

If he had any class he'd eating Filet Mignon on the taxpayers' dime.

Miller has been writing Trump's material long enough to know he needs to add cartoon drawings as visual aids.

"Yosemite Sam!"

This is Trump practicing his autocratic presidency in a second term.

Mafia Don wants "a piece of the action."

"Yo Semites"

LOL ~ Stephen Miller, who writes Trump's material, is probably sobbing from frustration.
