The fact all this is being allowed to be said and happen is just unbelievable.

My great fear is that the UK and the USA cannot find a way back from this.

Just a few days ago Nancy Pelosi was trying to contain Ocasio-Cortez, her "Squad", and probably the entire progressive wing of the Left. Centrist Democrats were following suit, with one accusing Rashida Tlab of playing the race card against Pelosi. Trump joins the fray and now all Democrats have to rally around the four congresswomen. 

It's obvious that Trump wants to face off against a far-left candidate next year. He'd have a tougher time against Joe Biden.

Trump knows that Biden will be tougher on him.

Other candidates may not be able to deal with Trump's manner, and will just play off script or act like a politician.

Biden would at least counter and hit back as hard.

I'm on the fence with Biden, but he seems the best chance of at least denting Trump, and yet, the Dems seem to be wanting to stick the knives in to Biden.

I love Warren, but if she doesn't get on the ticket, at least we know Biden will try to get things back to some kind of normal.

(Joe, if you're listening, pledge to make Obama a Supreme Court justice.)

An interesting carrot to dangle, but I doubt he has any interest in becoming a Supreme Court Justice. And if our current president is backlash from Obama's two terms naming him as a future Justice could be detrimental. I wonder if people are reaching saturation with all of Joe's call backs to Obama.

ITEM: I believe the United States and Britain should always be friends and closely aligned. However, 45 has fouled those waters, and our friends in Britain are tap dancing through the Brexit minefield. Now would be the best time to remind them of our friendship - but it may not happen.

ITEM: Of course, Trump brings this up just as the troubles with Epstein are coming to the fore. Trump certainly knows how to misdirect, and muddy the waters that should be crystal clear.

ITEM: I am glad that the Squad was able to repudiate Trump and establish themselves. I just wonder if this will lead a lot of people to claim that they're members of the Squad - and then do naught else to help this cause. It needs follow up, but so many Americans can just sit back and do nothing, once they've made their declaration.

ITEM: And now, articles of impeachment have been introduced to the House, good, bad, or otherwise. I wonder if Mrs. Pelosi will have to have a chat with Al Green (D-TX). I hope it leads to something useful, but I have trouble conceiving that.

This newly found video of Trump and Epstein at a party in ‘92 is something.

The Epstein association needs to be front and center. I am disappointed in the coverage this past week. His bail hearing was interesting. Part of what the prosecution put forth to support their case against granting bail was a pile of cash and diamonds in his personal safe, his jet and the fact he has an expired Saudi passport with his picture on it, but a different name.

That 1992 video is further proof, to me, that Donald Trump wasn't nearly as rich as he says he is:

He couldn't pay someone to comb or trim those f*cking eyebrows???

Trump riled up racist frenzy & his base shouted "SEND HER BACK" during a rally tonight... another low in American history. Shame on every person who participated.  

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has had several death threats against her. They'll increase as long as Trump attacks her. 

Real life consequences, real costs resulting from Trump's hatred.... sadly, he's far from done. Shame on the members of the House & Senate that won't stop him. Trump is using the power of his office to inflict this harassment.

This is unlawful and he should be removed from office. (wishful thinking, I know)

-C!

"Socialists hate America", an enemy for the next election; welcome back to the days of McCarthyism along with second-class citizens and blaming victims while a billionaire and his fans are the biggest cry-babies. Great. Just great.
