Like what you've seen so far?

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Dave,
I'll be posting how much Trump will be costing Americans as he "makes America great again!"
Thus far:
"The cut, at a quarter of a percentage point, would have saved homeowners an average of $500 this year, according to the Federal Housing Administration. Borrowers with larger home loans would have seen an even bigger drop in their premium rate." Trump reinstated the minimum $500.00/year without explanation. Next up, rising interest rates under Trump...
PS: THE projected costs of what Republicans have proposed so far is another 9 trillion to the deficit. We'll see what Trump does with that, too...

Still awaiting word from Trump's general counsel. I hope they nail his ass, don't you?...

"Family Values Judges"

Posted By Rod Kaufman

That's THE criteria evangelicals and Christian conservatives are requiring Trump to appoint and he said "they will be pleased".
"Family values judges", yeah, never mind the constitution...How that for a trumped-up pick?

Gorsuch

Educated at Harvard and Oxford. Impressive.
Wrote a book, too. On euthanasia and how appalling and illegal it is. Swell, so now that LIFE is so-all encompassing, instead of choosing a peaceful path, a terminally ill patient, writhing in agony when the morphine pump no longer works, takes out a revolver and blows their brains out so some loved one can find them like that. Or, some family is bankrupt when an Alzheimer patient exhausts their savings and becomes a ward of the state instead. Or, more murder-suicides occur when end of life is imminent and the suffering just can't be borne any further. LIFE must take precedence. LIFE must take priority over all other concerns, from birth on, without equivocation. LIFE is the determining factor, no matter what the circumstance. That's why he's absolutely, positively in favor of the DEATH penalty...

McCain & Comp Clean-Up Trump's Cocka...

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Trump's been pissing off the rest of the world, as promised, and Australia has been on his hit list after he hung up on the Australian's PM 25 minutes into an hour's call. McCain and fellow Republicans felt obliged to reassemble the pieces:

Betsy DeVos

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Our new education Czar, one of Trump's picks for the "best people out there", just got confirmed.
Never mind her family paid 8.3 to GOP super PACS.
Never mind she wanted to arm schools to fend off grizzly bears.(Got any grizzlies in your state?)
Never mind that for the first time a vice president had to make a tie breaker vote for a cabinet appointee because some Republicans joined the democrats in opposing her.
What should you mind? She's another plagiarizing dork!
