The "D" day pool, best guess as to when Trump is out

It's just beginning for the GOP, imagine them losing in a landslide and Donald running off to moscow spewing "deep state coup" bullshit. I don't think there will be too many republican "town hall" meetings this election season, just being seen, much less speaking in public is gonna be a challenge for most republicans when the shit really hits the fan. Child abuse causes passions to run high in good people, treason does the same thing and the consequences are often dire, getting shit on in public is the least of them.

‘Where are the babies, Mitch?’: McConnell pursued from restaurant by angry crowd

A group of Democratic Socialists and other angry protesters pursued Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) through a restaurant parking lot on Saturday, berating him with a mixture of immigration rhetoric and personal insults — and at one point an apparent threat to visit his home.

The Louisville encounter was the second time in two weeks that McConnell's private life has been disrupted by a spontaneous protest — and it was the latest in a weeks-long series of confrontations between powerful Republicans and those eager to shame them on camera, wherever they are found.

fuck mitch mcconnell.

i hope his death is slow and painful after he fucked democracy and stole a scotus pick from obama.

he's a real piece of shit !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is something that will drive peoples health care costs through the roof. Trumpers are so concerned that brown folks get health care that they are willing to cut their own throats and have been for years. It's hate filled morons like this that cause the richest country in the world to fuck over its own citizens on healthcare, brown folks might get some and we can't have that. It's better to die in agony, have a higher infant mortality rates, lower life expectancies, be vulnerable to epidemics and have public health crisis, oh and also pay three times more than countries with single payer. Better to pay 5 or 10 times more for your prescription drugs and vote republican because hate comes before everything else. Hate makes ya stupid and willing to cut yer own throat along with those ya don't like and anybody else's who happens to be around, ask any suicide bomber or Trumper.

Trump Administration Freezes Payments Required By The Affordable Care Act
https://www.npr.org/2018/07/08/627042776/trump-administration-freezes-payments-required-by-the-affordable-care-act

The Trump administration said Saturday that it is temporarily halting billions of dollars of payments designed to help insurers meet the Affordable Care Act requirement that they provide coverage regardless of whether a person is healthy or sick.

The administration said it was withholding $10.4 billion in the so-called "risk adjustment" payments, citing a district court ruling from earlier this year in New Mexico. While the administration says it is required to stop payments because of the court decision, insurers say the move could result in higher premiums for millions of individuals and small businesses.

The risk adjustment program plays an important role in the ACA by pooling risk for insurers, transferring funds from insurers who enroll healthier members for relatively less, to those that take on higher costs in order to enroll sicker members. The idea is to insulate insurance companies from the cost of enrolling people with pre-existing conditions, and remove the incentive for insurance companies to cherry pick healthy people.

They will blame Obama. I don't know if you have noticed, but they are not smart.

Didn't they telegraph this move last week?

This is interesting from a behavioral science point of view.

Introduce legislation to end the ACA and the entire US public spasms in outrage. Effectively end the ACA by breaking the financial core of the plan and the meaning of this action goes right over Trumper, if not the non-voting majority's heads.

The Trump-Russia Ties Hiding In Plain Sight | CNBC

Trump's in-plain-sight embrace of Russia gets obscured by the Trump news avalanche. But long before running for president, Trump relied on Russian money. Trump also consistently defends Russia and attacks U.S. officials investigating Russia.

The turd was turned down for a casino license in Australia in the 1980's because of his ties to organized crime.

Could President Donald Trump Be A Russian Intelligence Asset? | All In | MSNBC
New York Magazine's Jonathan Chait lays out the most extreme possibility of Trump-Russia collusion: that Trump has been a Russian intelligence asset since 1987.

President Donald Trump Admin. Won't Meet Child Reunification Deadline | All In | MSNBC
The Trump administration won't meet a Tuesday deadline to reunite all separated immigrant children under five with their parents.

It looks like the price for another conservative SCOTUS seat might be NATO, Mitch will surely support the withdrawal from NATO in return for another SCOTUS seat. It seems that Donald, the GOP and the russians have cut a deal for the Supreme court, even down to "arranging" Kennedy's retirement.

Donald Trump is a traitor, the republican leadership knows it and is suborning and supporting treason and has been for awhile. They can say it wasn't proven in court, but they have a higher standard to uphold and most importantly national security. The actions and more importantly the inaction of the GOP congress is gonna lead to national disaster and possibly nuclear war. If the democrats look like they are gonna win in a landslide, Donald might try to create some kind of crises or even start a war. He will run in the end, if he doesn't get everybody nuked first. Vlad knows Donald doesn't have long to go, so he's riding him hard trying and squeeze out the last benefits he can before the jig is up, at this point Donald needs a place to run to and knows it.

Steve Schmidt: President Donald Trump NATO Attack Makes World More Dangerous | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Political veteran Steve Schmidt has a damage assessment on the NATO alliance and warns Trump’s attack today made the world more dangerous.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wonder if the GOP will do anything about Trump and Putin before the election because the current situation is becoming increasingly intolerable. Soon Trump will have tariffs on everything crippling the US economy and unless he arbitrarily tries to withdraw from NATO, the allies will just wait until the midterm election and a congressional leash or impeachment. So a lot is on the line this time around, freedom and all those other things that make life sweet and worth living. Make sure ya register and vote is ya got a brain, if yer a Trumper have the good sense to stay home and think about your life, learn to love more and hate less.

My crystal ball says January 20, 2025 at 11:59:59. Because who else can get your panties in a bunch? Without a boogie man, everyone would realize the US dropped more bombs with drones in 2017, than Obama did in eight years!

You're all such suckers with: Russia! Illegals internment camps! (why no outcry when Obama did the same? Hint, they did slight of hand, because Obama is Peace Prize President.), you're the Nazi!. But that's all a game they want you to play, where the only ones who win are our capitalist overlords.

There's a certain image. Obama is party with Cheech and Chong, Trump is let's party Leave it to Beaver style.

Neither is happening.

Homelessness is at an all time high, and was going up at the same time as Obama too.

Rather than say: hey! Why is that guy on the street with a "God bless, homeless need food. Hungry!" But instead you ignore him, walk by. Then you go online saying, "Trump locks up kids."

Rather than say: hey! Why is some dangerous refugee coming here? We blew up his land. But instead you welcome someone who hates you, rather than get off your sorry ass and speak up against a tyrannical government who shouldn't have intervened in policy who made him come here.

Rather than say:hey! It's good to accept we got Obama, who didn't do shit anyway. All he did was give us bandaids, yet kept cutting us, never letting the wound heal. But instead you say, we won't accept democracy, it's tyranny of the 51%. (Hint, I agree.) What you really want is to vote, then if the result is wrong, do a mulligan, with threats of violence if you don't get the results you want.

That's why you'll always be slaves.

Obama hasn't been president for two years, Trump is president now and he is a traitor and if he is president for too much longer there will be a lot more homeless, many of the morons who voted for him will be among them.

You know nothing of Buddha or anything about mindfulness, compassion comes first, self last

You need to read up on who the Buddha was. He left his family. Went out to find himself. One day after several years, he became enlightened under a tree. Who else got enlightened with a tree? Jesus? Hmmm? Religions not all that different?

By not understanding yourself, and having compassion for self, how can you expect to know compassion for other?

Why do you say get rid of Trump? Don't you mean get rid of democracy? Otherwise you're just a big cry baby who whines when their team doesn't win the Super Bowl.

Either accept the system, or you deny. But what will you replace it with?

Why is Trump a traitor? Because he's damn well doing what he promised, and trying hard. Only people like on the Supreme Court block him. Other Republicans don't always agree. A lot of the time only Trump agrees.

But isn't that how the system works? Three branches: judicial, presidential, and legislative? People mean nothing. We are chumps. They know all, we only tell "oh master, will you be my master?" Rather than being master of yourself. So when you're not master of yourself, who can you blame? The master is mean!

Yet, you decide that. Obama was a good master, but Trump bad. To those who hated Obama, he was a bad master, so they got together and got a new master who rid us of evils he did, like Obama Care, and in it's place we get Trump No Cares!

I agree something is very broken. But it's been broken for over 242 years. It's not like this situation magically happened because of Trump, it was a long time in the making.

By our imperialist ways, capitalism, and hoping some savior saves us. For you it was Obama, for others it's now Trump, who you see as the anti-christ.

So screw it. Let's become a dictatorship. I love being ruled by others and getting told what to do. Wanna meet and get rid of Trump? Sounds fun! You convinced me!

Your a sock puppet with nothing meaningful to say, you also appear to be a fool. Read less and meditate more, no point in even beginning though if you are sociopathic. The way it works is, the bigger the heart the faster the progress, it's like being a mechanic, ya can read about it all ya want but ya won't be a mechanic until ya get yer hands dirty and keep them that way. Meditate for one hour each day in two formal sessions and stay as focused as you can on the tactile sensation of the respiration process. It usually takes a novice about 6 to 8 weeks of regular daily practice to manifest the full spectrum of perceptual changes and cause significant changes to prefrontal neuromorphology. It makes ya happy, hate less and clears yer thinking up while at the same time building out those parts of your brain that process emotion.

It's a bit like being a christian in that you can't get through the pearly gates with a heart full of hate, ya can't become enlightened or awakened with a head full of bullshit. Just like ya can't be a christian and a Trumper, ya can't be a Buddhist and be one either, though you can be a bullshit artist.
