I apologize in advance to anyone who does not like this sentiment.

But, this is where I am these days. Nothing else is going to change my opinion or my outlook.



Until this happens, I don't see a lot of hope for this nation. Again... I apologize if it offends anyone.

Sometimes I read their posts and wonder if a troll is with us. Then realize it’s one of “them”.

Up to and including the avatar for 3 of them.

Other great DUers also use that avatar however.

I don't think they need to out themselves. Their replies and comments speak for themselves, taken within context.

An outside force must make it happen. Wishing and hoping won't work. Courage, devotion, and sacrifice is all that is required.

A second trump term entitles Democrats to all the vengefulness they desire, and then some.

I don't usually wish bad things to befall people. But for these evil pricks I hope that God deals with them in a harsh way. They want to destroy 250 years of Our Country's progress, and us in the process. I hope and pray this happens quickly!!

That is the thing that I have said over and over that is the most maddening about all of this. My universe is tilted on its axis because I naïvely always believed that the good guys win and the bad guys get punished And over and over and over and over he gets away with everything.

I now understand why. It is a great method for controlling the masses. Make them think one thing is happening, when the opposite is what is really taking place.

I know we don't have debtor's prison (yet), but they are both flight risks. So, put them away until they make good with the judgement.
