you moved the goalposts, but ok. i agree that the republicans in the legislature aren’t doing nearly enough to improve the nation. i agree with you. fair enough? i do love the judges they’re appointing though.

i responded to your post, can you show me the same courtesy? why shouldn’t we be concerned, that the democratic party appears to be telling the nation that they will only accept the results of an election, if
they happen to approve of the outcome. if they don’t approve of the outcome, they will
never stop trying to un-do the results of said election.

i hated obama. but he won fair and square, and he was right when he said “elections have consequences”.

democrats are amazingly sore losers.

Seriously, your red MAGA hat is too tight. I'd be the first to say I really despise politics and I wish we could get term limits passed, but I don't see this as the right does. Only Trump and his minions see this as some vendetta, because we lost the election.

I'm not getting back into a debate about what Mueller uncovered or why he "couldn't" bring charges, or the spin that this call was "perfect", the congress is doing it's job of oversight and trying to hold this president accountable. He is abusing his power, he is profiting off the office, he continues to obstruct justice and now has reached out to foreign powers to aid in his bid to win the 2020 election. Spin all that anyway you want, but that's what is happening and he has made us that much weaker globally and endangers our national security.

“he is profiting off his office”

agreed. so did biden’s son.

“has reached out to foreign powers to help his re election”.

so did obama when he asked a russian official to postpone missile talks until after his election. so did senate democrats when they asked ukraine to investigate manafort and trump. so has every president ever. much of what they do is to get themselves re elected. if trump gets a good trade deal with china, that would help him get re elected, so is that an impeachable offense?

Straight from Putin's playbook

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
