or so they thought. For now, they may be having the last laugh. I don't think their distant future (50-100 years)is not bright with our national demographics being a majority of color, voters whom they have written off. The problem is, that at the rate this country is being destroyed, I don't know how much of a nation we will have by then or if it will be worth having.
The bright side for me is that in 50-100 years from now I will be having a dirt nap.

Maybe not resurrected, but in much better shape than 10 months ago. Their base is really fired |

I don't see it that way. IMO their base is in a state of fury over the Obama administration. |

I did not mean "white" in a racist sense but to identify a cultural group with strong feelings. |

And in my estimation, that 'johnson stepping' has been by design, as 'cowardice' makes no sense |
