[Donward]

I'm consistently astounded about how low the Left can go with their Trump derangement. 

 

But then I look at who it is behaving like this.

She has a kinda Jabba the hut look to her face.

None of this should be in the public domain IMHO.....All parties should back the fuck off and have some respect for the fallen.

That article sums up a lot of my problems with her quite succinctly.

Hillary's foreign policy decisions as SecState, and bad advice to Obama, and her relentless hubris/arrogance on being destined to win the White House were fucking disastrous.

That and the overt corruption.

The DNC is running out of money; http://www.politico.com/story/2017/10/22/dnc-2018-rebuilding-finances-244019

I guess the left only having Trump hate and Identity politics as a platform is taking a toll.  Wasn't there another semi scandal recently with a bunch of longtime DNC people getting ousted for more Clinton loyalists?

Yep, the left wing also got completely purged from the rules committee that will be setting rules for the next primary. Meanwhile Donna Brazile, who abused her position to give Hillary the debate questions ahead of one of the primary debates, has a seat on that committee.

 

Needless to say the left base is in an uproar.

Maybe the Dems shouldn't be dropping tens of millions of dollars in off-year special elections in Trump/Red states on candidates that have no chance of winning if they are having money problems?

Problem: that assumes that the Dems are smart

This is the same party that managed to lose a rigged election against one of the most disliked people in America.

Does this mean we could really possibly have Trump V Hillary 2.0?

If anybody is stupid enough to run Hillary again, it's the Democratic Party establishment.

 

It's like they want everyone who isn't a hardcore Clintonite to say fuck it and all vote third party or stay home.

[Donward]

Do the Dems even have anyone to run in 2020?

[Scolopax]

I recall Hillary saying in an interview recently that she did not plan on running again.

Jimmy Carter defends Trump.

 

[Ulric]

I heard about that on the radio this morning, and I began to wonder what universe I woke up in.

 

Also, when Jimmy Carter calls [Obama] a failed president. I'm sure he is glad to transfer the mantle of "Worst President" to someone else.

Yep. We live in a world where Jimmy Carter is defending Trump and Dubya - who was elected as a conservative - is trashing him.

 

 

 

[Sturgeon]

"Perhaps Carter is seeking to placate Trump as part of a job interview: The 93-year-old former president said he is willing to undertake a diplomatic mission to North Korea to discuss its nuclear weapons program."

 

They just do not see the irony of this at all.

I notice the 25th Amendment has been getting quite a few mentions of late.....

There's been chatter of that since Nov. 9th. I think if Azathoth were able to do anything, he would have done it a long time ago.
