Unfortunately it seems as if he's taking America/American democracy down with him.  Mercifully I missed the tirade but every time I hear of one of these incidents whether on social media or at a press conference or summit, I wonder how the U.S. will survive having had such a reckless individual at the helm.

There's no bottom.  We all keep saying it.  Every time you think he can't go lower, he manages to figure out how to go lower.  It's so unbelievable, and all of my friends are saying the same thing.  He'll get re-elected.  Unless people wake up and show up at the polls and get rid of his punk ass.  I don't like Bernie Sanders but I'd even vote for him.  I don't even care who gets nominated, I'm just waiting to see who I need to throw my money behind.

Nevertheless, the Trump Administration, along with that Vogel dude and every yahoo with a podcast or YouTube account, will STAY insisting that "Uncle Joe" used his political muscle to squash an investigation against his crooked-as-the-day-is-long son.

Today in madness: Todd Starnes is fired for claiming Democrats worship Moloch, and the president invokes Nickelback.

 

 

 

 

 

The above is officially the worst thing he's ever done, BTW.

My goodness that Nickelback tweet is like the worst SNL sketch. I wish I could unsee it. 

 

I guess you all saw that Federalist article going around last week claiming that climate change supporters were all pagans. This seems to be a new talking point for the right. I don't understand who it's for. Surely the evangelicals who eat this up are already on their side anyway? Are they that desperate to court the "flies are attracted to Hillary and Obama because of the stench of sulfur" crowd?

    • I like that there are a lot of local performers on this soap and I'm glad they've resisted so far on hiring too many soap performers.   Cady has been awkward on the show thus far and Jon seems to have polarizing as well. I say focus on the local talent and giving those people a job and exposure.. and leave the P & G soap opera performers in the past.
    • Who do you think would be good for the show among the ATWT/GL cast?

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
