If this bastard gets confirmed, when Dems take control impeach him. No norms so Dems can do what

they want. And while there at it impeach Gorsuch too. He is illegitimate. We won’t need a reason. Pay back is a bitch especially when there are no more rules or norms. Tax the shit out of the rich, secure social security, Medicare for all. Make sure they will no reason to ever vote for a republican again

My Trump loving brother in law informed me yesterday that the drug cartels wanted Hillary to win.

My brother-in-law isn’t book smart but a very good business man. He is very wealthy but his mind is polluted. He denies watching Fox but that is a lie. His common theme is that Dems are going to come and take his money. He took over his Father's construction company but begrudges anyone who may need help from the govt. I point out that my wife’s Father died when she was 3 years old in 1965 and she and her mother lived on his social security. My wife is a successful sales executive and has paid back social security 10 times over. It’s pure ignorance on his part. All wealthy righties fear the same thing, the govt will take their money and redistribute it to others. This is the Fox mantra

We haven't even hit the tip of the iceberg with this fiasco. In the coming months there will be mind

boggling revelations about Trump, his campaign, and the Republican conspiracy of silence. While I agree Rachel’s statement is amusing and relevant, once the true horror of the Trump’s presidency is revealed, Rachel’s statement will seem understated and kind to Trump. While I’m no wordsmith, something like “It’s why you don’t deploy inter-continental ballistic nuclear missels to celebrate the 4th of July” is a more descriptive statement. I love Rachel, she and Keith Ohlberman, especially his “special comment” series that got me through the Bush era.

And repeal and replace every executive order, huge tax increases on the rich and best of all impeach

Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. You see, once you go down the road of “no norms” like Rs have done, it’s a whole new world. Once Dems control White House and Congress then anything goes. How can Dems impeach Supreme Court Justices, easy, no norms means you can do whatever you want. When Dems regain power they should ruthlessly strike against Rs for their cowardice and treason. Change House and Senate rules to make certain everything passes. Every aspect of government has to be reordered to protect against Rs every destroying our country again. Use the federal budget to punish States that pass laws and regulations harmful to workers. Campaign finance laws, term limits, mandatory retirement. These rogue States who wield so much power but represent a small fraction of the population must be put in their place. Ultimately, the Constitution must be amended and modernized. But it all starts with Dems in 2020 winning. Once they do, the reforms they make better cripple the rich, revitalize the middle class and take care of the poor to make certain Rs will never again yield power.
