Norton, have you bothered to read the POTUS's twitter? You might consider it as it is directly from President Trump.

The NY Times has had several interesting articles and Op Ed pieces the last couple of days about Trump and his relationship with the Republican party. Rather than rebut Trump, some moderates are just retiring from the party, leaving the party to those who made a Faustian bargain with Trump to further Republican policies or those too retarded to see what a horror show it is. Actually, the use of the word "retarded" is an insult to those who actually suffer from mental deficiencies when comparing them to Republicans who support Trump. I for one am over trying to discuss things such as "facts" with them. The same mental deficiency which did not permit them to see just how horrible a person and politician Trump was also prevent them from acknowledging those same flaws now. As someone commented in the NY Times:
I honestly don't know how my Republican friends can still call themselves Republicans. In supporting this president the true essence of the Republican voter is revealed and it is not pretty. $175,000,000.oo to renovate the White House...fine. Voting against class action suits against banks that have broken the law...fine. Going back on our word and agreements with our allies....fine. Throwing out the children of immigrants even if born here...fine. Doing away with special education...fine. Tormenting young widow of fallen soldier...fine. Doing away with clean air and water...fine. Cutting a trillion dollars out of medicaid and medicare...fine..and on and on. The things that they are ok with define them...why would anyone with a social conscience want anything to do with them?

The Republican agenda is the same as it ever was, lie about what your intentions are as you give welfare to the billionaire donors at the expense of the Nation and it's people.
Take away freedoms and choice, throw as many people in jail or into poverty as possible, demonize and lie about the other side, promote bigotry, racism and division

hey libs, try a red paper for a change...
You can say he’s “not my president” all you like, but he is anyway, and this is the country you live in, and he’s more powerful than you, and his behavior establishes precedents.
"..everyone distressed by the Trump phenomenon will not achieve a greater understanding of it if they continue to comfort themselves by arguing he’s not the new normal."

This is what right wingers do, harass normal people with death threats after they are fed lies and conspiracy theories by the right wing media
Las Vegas shooting
'I hope someone truly shoots you': online conspiracy theorists harass Vegas victims
Those who lived to describe the mass shooting face flood of abuse on social media accusing them of being actors, as hoax claims flourish on YouTube

Braden Matejka survived a bullet to the head in the Las Vegas massacre. Then, the death threats started coming.
“You are a lying piece of sh#t and I hope someone truly shoots you in the head,” a commenter wrote to Matejka on Facebook, one week after a gunman killed 58 people and injured hundreds more. “Your soul is disgusting and dark! You will pay for the consequences!” said another. A Facebook meme quickly spread with a photo of him after the shooting, captioned: “I’m a lying c#&%!”
The 30-year-old victim – who narrowly escaped death in the worst mass shooting in modern US history – has faced a torrent of online abuse and harassment, forcing him to shut down his social media accounts and disappear from the internet. The bullying, taunting and graphic threats have also spread to his family and friends.
This cannot be the new normal
and anything from the NY Post is probably BS anyway

hey libs, try a red paper for a change.. Hey Commie, how about reading the U.S Constitution. He's a President and the head of an equal branch of government, not a dictator, as much as Trumpites will argue to the contrary. I know it's a lot to comprehend, but please try. Your country is depending on you.

I suggested it because it's reasonably written I didn't say Commie because of the word "red"; it's because so many on the right fall back on this Stalinesque type support for Trump, the whole 'he's in charge so suck it up buttercup' thing. His supporters act like we don't have a right to question him or even disagree with him.

That's Tom Steyer, a billionaire, he paid for the ad
I like him, he stands up for what's good, and has the money to help fund good things
We need more liberal billionaires like him
it takes money to fight against Big moneyed interests
