she would have won had the Ruskies not interfered massively as they did through wikileaks, et al. It was a coup!!

methinks they're all hat and no cattle

yeah, there's going to be a few loose cannons out there but generally it's a good idea to have at least a 1-2 weeks supply of water, food for any natural event like earthquakes, etc.
Other than that, I'm not going worry about those folks who will most likely just continue to watch their reality shows, sit on their respective couches and protest way too much!

thanks for the info!

going to use it on a forum mostly for republicans. Am sure they will flame the hell out of me and back but worth the effort. Back in the early '60s I wanted to go to USC but didn't have the $$ for tuition. Times were different back then. So I got married, had 3 kids, remained a Democrat for the duration thankfully!

"Germany's Pro-Putin Parties a Threat to Democracy"

so the AFD is pro Putin, that figures since Putin has his dirty little hands (and money) in every single right wing party in Europe now!

"Sahra Wagenknecht is a guiding light for Die LINKE (Left Party) in Germany while Frauke Petry currently leads the far-right AfD ("Alternative for Germany&quot . One wouldn't think the two had much in common - they are at the extreme opposite ends of the political spectrum. Both women want Germany to dissolve the trans-Atlantic partnership; both want Germany to leave the NATO alliance that has brought peace and prosperity to the nation for 70 year; both are sworn opponents of the American influence which they see as undermining Germany's "sovereignty". And both are strong advocates for appeasing Russia."
