Beto talking about Netanyahu. It took me a couple of seconds to realize he wasn't talking about the Republicans.

 

"That relationship, if it is to be successful, must transcend partisanship in the United States, and it must be able to transcend a prime minister who is racist, as he warns about Arabs coming to the polls, who wants to defy any prospect for peace as he threatens to annex the West Bank, and who has sided with a far-right, racist party in order to maintain his hold on power," O'Rourke said.

Funny timing as I just saw a Bernie supporter on Twitter who was tearing apart Democrats for bipartisanship, tearing apart Beto and Kamala, and tearing apart anti-immigration talk. 

 

They won't be saying a word about any of this.

I simply do not understand all these folks on both sides of the political aisle who run around, screaming like Melissa Manchester about how there's "just too many people" either here already or who want to come over.  Seriously?  We're THAT overcrowded?  There's THAT many people throughout the rest of the world of whom we have to be afraid?

I can understand the hesitancy. Germany, for instance, let tons of people in without proper planning, which led to big problems, including a wave of rapes. But there are ways to say this without doing what he's doing, which is basically going "Yuck."

I pray to God Bernie does NOT get the nomination. Because - despite the ANYONE but Trump attitude for 2020 - I cannot support Trump Lite of the left. And he is. Down to not releasing HIS taxes. Go the f-u-c-k home, Bernie.

If he doesn't get the nomination in 2020, he'll just come back in 2024 and try again.  And again.  And again.

 

Bernie will never go away.  Ever.

He's 77 years old, so I'll have to disagree with you there.

More seriously his hard core supporters were so hateful last time, I'm completely against them getting their way this time.  I saw so many people rooting for Trump so the country would suffer and turn hard left. No thanks!

    • I dont understand the motivation behind it. Eva is her link to Ted and the Duprees and without her, she has nothing. It would have served better for Eva to be all fed up with her and leave the house on her own and Leslie try to make amends bc she needs her for this comeup she's been talking about. Eva can repair her relationship with Ted and maybe build something with the Duprees and cut her out
    • So good today Dante is overreacting blaming gio Hopefully Danny will come clean
    • Not mad at Leslie Locking Eva out, I think it's important for the audience to see her on her own for a while. Curious how scrappy and savvy she becomes on her own. Yeah, I am with you there. It feels a bit hollow; maybe if she was talking to Martin and Kat I would feel better about it. There must be more to this story. Daphnee and Ambyr owned this episode. Tugging my heart in every scene. Nicole process hurt and anger much differently than Dani though.
    • I also really enjoyed Eva's scenes with Kat today. They have an interesting chemistry. I thought it really did feel a bit like sisters at conflict. Especially with the way that Eva was trying to convince Kat to forgive Ted and them both coming to the conclusion that the man they thought was their father was different wasn't who they really thought he was initially. And the way that Eva broke down when Kat said that she was dead to her was emotional stuff. I really do think that in spite of their conflict/bickering Eva really would have loved to have gained a sister, along with a brother, father, etc... Also, I thought it was interesting how Eva kept saying that she loves Ted and Nicole. That and Leslie mentioning that Kat/Eva are almost twins really does make me wonder if Kat may really be her twin and Nicole's as well. I would gladly welcome that outcome, even if it takes a while for it to come out. At this point Leslie doesn't deserve Eva as a daughter as far as I'm concerned. And I would forward to a storyline where we found out that she's Nicole's second baby girl, and all the complex and ultimately happy feelings that would bring Nicole. Eva/Kat could still have a rivalry, especially if Nicole ended up doing some more bonding with Eva. And then we could get the rest of the family's reaction to that as well.

        What you NOT gonna do to me!
    • Bravo to every single person responsible for today's episode. From the writer on down to Kraft services. Yall I'm getting emotional but I wish my granny was here to have seen this soap since she was the one to introduce me to this medium.

    • Everything is fraught with confusion. Why is Leslie pleading with the Duprees to accept Eva? She's not biological family so what is this? She's the product of an affair with their in-law so Leslie wants them to accept her? I'm getting GOOD TIMES vibes of Leslie and Eva minus the physical abuse.
    • Big fan of today's writing. In particular, I like EJ complexity, crying over Johnny and conspiring at the same is tough to pull off in the same episode, but it goes very far in explaining EJ's motives. I don't hate the idea of Cat and EJ, and I especially appreciate everyone trying to warn her, but she is sticking to the plan. Boy oh boy, when Brandon Beemer wears a shirt that matches his eyes, I get lost in the screen!
