This guy needs to take the hint, if his parents are giving the maximum in campaign contributions-- to his opponent, they're unlikely to vote for him.
If you're parents won't vote for you...

You are far more moral than I am. My main problem is Junior and his family aren't "the king". Not much point using an inaccurate tool to go after the wrong people. And that's all I'm going to say about that.
You're right. As far as incapacitated, I believe that Trump Sr. is already mentally incapacitated. The GOP is also as much of a problem as Trump Sr. and Trump Jr.s.
I really want as much of the GOP stain out of Congress as possible this year. It's as important to me that Trump's hands are tied politically (by removing his enablers in Congress) as it is to remove him from office entirely.

Someone sent white powder to Donald Trump Jr. Three people hospitalized. As much as I dislike all of these people I can't be happy about this.

This. I don't think anyone of good conscience could wish someone to be poisoned, incapacitated or worse, and this is coming from someone who detests the Trumps.

The third one was around during Pam (John Dixon's niece) and Beau's run. In fact, she followed Beau when he left Oakdale for good.

Trump claimed responsibility when the stock market was up (though presidents rarely have anything to do with this), so is he going to take responsibility now that the market is down?

OMG, that Hilton Head soap looks so bad!
at Joy's quips about Pence and Sabato's movies.
Sorry, I can't take this dude seriously. Any 5th grade debate champ would easily take his arguments apart. He looks desperate but hey, he's doing what he has to, I guess.

@YRBB I think someone may have posted this last year either in the Status Updates or in the Old Y&R thread. I remember it being mentioned somewhere.
Director Kasi Lemmons (Nella Franklin #3, ATWT) has been writing the libretto for a jazz opera based on Fire Shut Up In My Bones the memoir of NYT columnist and political commentator Charles Blow.
BIG NEWS My memoir #FireShutUpInMyBones is being turned into an opera by composer Terence Blanchard and librettist Kasi Lemmons. It premiers June 15, 2019, at the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis and features @JuliaBullockSop @DavoneTines (who will play me). So excited I could burst! pic.twitter.com/U8Grtr5sT5

Why not spend the money to pay military better wages and help the homeless vets get permanent housing!!
Maybe France could do a parade because they have socialized healthcare for everyone over there!
Also, you don't hear/read anything about them having a population of homeless armed forces veterans.

Some televangelist named Gloria Copeland, who apparently is Trump's 'faith adviser' claims that the flu is all in our heads.
Despite the high hospitalization rate and death rate from the flu.
Flu season is all in our heads, Texas televangelist says: 'Inoculate yourself with the word of God'
Consequently, there is no current head of the CDC as Trump's pick withdrew her nomination after it was revealed that she had heavy investments in big tobacco.
Despite the high number of hospitalizations and deaths (particularly children) Twit-in-Chief has yet to mention this. Even sadder still no one in the media seems to ask him or his pathetic WH spokesperson about this.

Where are all those deficit hawks who used to block every subsequent plan the Obama administration came up with to boost the economy during recession because they scolded that it would raise the deficit?

There's also audio floating around of Tarrantino defending Polanski years ago.
I don't feel like posting it because frankly, I'm getting tired of hearing some of these guys' voices with all the offensive crap they've been putting out there.

Yesterday, I was watching a morning newsmagazine program where a man who has experience working with budget directors in previous administrations (I forget his name) called Trump's budget DOA as it is unworkable.
He said that perhaps only a kernel of an idea from one small part of the budget can be the idea to shape other ideas-- he thought that was the most that can be done with Trump's budget ideas.
He said that considering the fact that the Senate already passed a spending bill that Trump's budget was too late anyway-- that is was a wishlist.
In any case, Trump's budget is getting a massive amount of pushback right now.
Who the hell thinks that a Blue Apron style of food delivery is feasible for tens of millions of people??
Blue Apron itself has problems with its delivery infrastructure. This scheme sounds like the perfect recipe for waste, graft and corruption.
That seems to be the prevailing sentiment.
