Hey, a senator made a lynching “joke”
I’ll let you take a guess what political party they were part of

I'll admit I didn't look at a lot of the US House races beyond Minnesota and didn't think I'd need to after the Dems passed the threshold of control. Then I look at some of the individual races like Dave Brat and Dana Rohrbacher losing and realize that this was fairly momentous in a number of ways. Being what they are, mid-terms aren't always a true measure of the political barometer, but this article from today's NY Times kind of sums up the opportunities and dangers for both sides: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/13/u...tic-gains.html
Ocasio-Cortez and company will make a lot of noise, but I hope that a sensible tone of progressive legislation takes root instead of random hook shots from half court.

Not nearly as dire as the consequences of electing 59 amateur judges.
But yeah. Point here: we shouldn’t elect judges on the basis of political party, and we shouldn’t be OK with straight ticket voting - for a plethora of reasons entirely unrelated to President Trump or the Republicans.
the electorate sees it otherwise and you only have yourself or the orange one to blame for it swinging that way with how he has conducted himself with no one willing to reign him in
as i and i believe you said
he had a chance to bring sides together
he hasn't in the slightest tried to do that and it is showing

I stopped in Athens for a day. Didn’t get to see what I wanted.
I was on the island south of mainland Greece, in Crete for about 3 weeks for tennis tournaments. I pretty much lived on unlimited baklava and cheeses at the resort for 3 weeks. Lol.
Before that I was in Barcelona for nearly the entire month of October. Going to Dominican Republic next week and will be there for 3 weeks.

"Sometimes they go to their car, put on a different hat, put on a different shirt, come in and vote again. Nobody takes anything. It’s really a disgrace what’s going on."
this is absurd and dangerous. once again stoking fear. it's all he's got. how on earth are some OK with a president completely making things up?
