I'm finding all of this really scary. I feel like our institutions are much more fragile than I thought and that right-wing media can turn into government propaganda machine and completely shape the worldview of a huge segment of the population. Trump is an incompetent idiot who's only agenda is self-aggrandizement, but the thought of savvy person with a dark agenda in his position is so terrifying.

I'm worried about what McConnell will do with the tax reform that is planned. They need a win. They also need to punish those who defied them.
I read that Trump was willing to put up his own money against GOP incumbent running for re election.Flake I think because he has been so vocal in his criticism of Trump

Ugh. Our prosecutor opted to not bring charges against Ray Tensing a third time for killing Sam Dubose. I'm not surprised, because if there were a third trial, I think it would have had a hung jury again. But I am disappointed in this whole damn system.

The day Trump puts up his own money for lunch will be a first. Though vindictiveness does seem to be a driving force in his character so who knows.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
He'll probably claim to be putting up his own money, but in reality it will be other people's money.

Well it was called Trump's money but I'm sure it wasn't really his.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
He'll hire the consultants and just never pay them.

And then he'll blame Hilary.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S is being extra annoying tonight(yet still more mature than Trump) and Gary just called to say he's stuck in traffic and will be late getting home. Argh.
