Members marceline Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 And with that any hope Doug Jones might've had in Alabama is gone. Nothing turns out the right like terrorism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 I think Jones will probably lose anyway, but I don't think this is going to move that needle much. NY has had its fair share of failed/muted terror attacks in the last decade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 I think it's stuff like abortion which is the main push these days, at least in the South. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 True but if there were people who were on the fence this is the kind of thing that will push them off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 Probably. I'd like to say Jones being a former prosecutor, and a good one despite what Trump claims, would help him, but that would be a fantasy wouldn't it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) And that's what I, as a onetime Obama critic, have come to love and appreciate about our former president. No matter how I felt at the time about Obama's presidency, I'd have to agree that it was paradise compared to today. I'm happy to hear that Trump's alleged sexual harassment victims are speaking out and demanding an official investigation. IDK how far they'll get with THIS Congress, but just the fact that they are "standing up," especially in the light of Al Franken's resignation, means a lot.

Members JaneAusten Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Why I can no longer call myself an Evangelical Republican https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/09/opinion/sunday/wehner-evangelical-republicans.html?rref=collection%2Ftimestopic%2FEvangelism&action=click&contentCollection=timestopics®ion=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=collection&_r=0 When discussion surfaces in terms of the destruction of institutions, that includes the White Evangelical Church. there is also a huge difference between the Black Evangelicals and White Evangelicals.

Members Khan Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 Well, with all the wars threatening to break out on account of Trump's public statements and tweets, the military's gonna need all the help they can get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Preach it Wendy. Let's add to all this that : 1. Trump lies constantly. I have never seen a more shameless and prolific liar in my entire life. 2. A free press is the corner stone of democracy and Trump is constantly trying to undermine it. 3. He retweets white supremacists and Muslim hating extremists, which is obviously a tacit endorsement. He has ripped the social fabric of our nation apart. 4. He is bringing us to the brink of war with North Korea. 5. He is contemplating starting an intelligence agency that is loyal to him personally. Think on that a bit. What's next, secret police? 6. He is giving ICE a free hand to terrorize people including sick little girls. What kind of human being hounds a scared little girl in her hospital bed? The kind I don't want holding a badge and gun, but these types thrive under Trump, Remember in history class when they talk about the holocaust and warn you that if you aren't vigilant it could happen again. Yeah, this is who and what they were talking about. The only thing those of us resisting are doing wrong is being too complacent. I see now how the Nazi's came to power. Step by step the evil becomes normal and it's hard to do anything about it on the individual level.

Members marceline Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 Plus let's just deal with the fact that the man is a narcissistic sociopath with dementia. This isn't just about policy, it's about fitness to hold the office. He's way too lazy for this job and his laziness is draining the treasury as he spends all of his time golfing. If it's true that he spends hours watching TV every day that mean underlings are the ones really running the country so that is a national security issue. Trump (and the Republican Party in general) is a threat that this country has never seen before. Our democracy is being dismantled right in front of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 11, 2017 Members Share Posted December 11, 2017 I posted this in the harassers thread but this does take on a political edge since this man was one of the pundit/journos who helped to frame how HRC was written about during her candidacy. Yes, ANOTHER one! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
