Hillary needs to take the House. Anything less will disappoint me.
Take the House and do the work and stay true to the arithmetic and don't lose that House two years later.
Until the Republicans learn to respect facts, clear evidence and data, they deserve to stay in the wilderness. The hate sickness has to go. Enough is enough.
Saving the planet is worth a massive mandate.
Warren is right. Trump is an arsonist. I could not have put it better.
It is a shame that uneducated white folks are listening to Donald Trump. What we have here is a failure to communicate.
Trump's diagnosis is wrong. His prescription is poison. And he is not the Moses.
Trump is flat out wrong on the economics. If I were China trying to become number one, Trump would be my dream candidate.
If Donald Trump becomes president, the trains will stop running.
The Democrats have some explaining to do. The Democrats are the party of the poor.
The thing is, you are supposed to invest in human capital. Massively.
Donald Trump and the Politics of Being an Asshole
Despite the feeble NeverTrump effort, Trump found a home for his vileness within the Republican Party. In fact, Trump’s ascent was made possible by the GOP he has taken over. For years, Republican leaders and elected officials have suggested that Obama was essentially destroying the nation. (Obamacare was death panels, his stimulus produced no new jobs, and he was—take your pick—either a tyrannical, power-grabbing chief executive or a feckless leader doing nothing to stop the nation’s enemies.) GOPers trafficked in hyperbole to win the votes of tea partiers. They played footsie with birtherism and did not challenge the racism and conspiracy theories infecting large swaths of the right. When Mitt Romney ran for president in 2012, he enthusiastically accepted Trump’s endorsement, at a time when Trump was going full-birther. House GOPers were Benghazi maniacs, fueling the darkest notions on the right. On key issues, most notably climate change, Republicans delivered the message that facts and expert opinions don’t matter. They legitimized brinkmanship with government shutdowns and debt-ceiling fights.
Donald Trump is a madman lunging for the nuclear code. He has to be stopped. He is also a Climate Change denier. That is like being a Holocaust denier times 1,000. Planet Earth is titanic, currently headed straight for the iceberg. Course unchanged you are looking at extreme, volatile and completely unpredictable weather. That is a bye bye agriculture and six billion dead endgame.
Elizabeth Warren unleashes tweetstorm on Trump, Pence, GOP platform
But I repeat myself.
She gives Donald the creeps. With her in the ring Donald's mysteries seem to, poof, evaporate.
I kind of like this 10 point manifesto put out by the BLM a few days ago.
Fellow Americans. Democrats, Independents, Republicans, and everyone in between. We are gathered to decide if a woman can be president after all. We are gathered to decide if sanity matters for the top job. We are gathered to decide if diversity is only America's past or also its future.
After a lifetime of having looked at politics in this country and this world from every possible angle in ways nobody before me has, I present myself to you in sharp contrast to someone who would be lost at the City Council level in our shared city of New York. Competence matters. Policy homework matters. Having read the constitution matters. Good manners matter. Love of God matters.
Grand challenges lie ahead of us. Anyone who denies climate change is in cahoots with Satan himself. But if this country's history gives us one lesson it is that the greatest of challenges are always accompanied by the greatest of promises. The greatest days America has ever seen are right in front of us. The very determination that will help us steer away from the worst of climate change will also allow us to tap into cutting edge technologies that promise to take us into an Age Of Abundance. But it will not happen on its own. We have choices to make. We all have a big choice to make on November 4th.
I ask that you give me not only the White House, but also the Senate and the House so I may give the best first two years this country ever saw in terms of concrete political action.
Divided government was never meant to be a paralyzed government. Senators were never supposed to try to put the country's constitution into the acid tank. It should not matter if your elected officials are black, white or Hispanic, male or female. Lunatic hysteria, facts free racism and sexism, ideological masturbation completely unhinged from facts, data and clear evidence were never supposed to rule the day, in power or in opposition.
And so I ask for your nomination and your willingness to reach out to your neighbors and your vote. The most honored title in a democracy is that of a citizen and I proudly share that with you. The work we will do we will do together. Come be my comrade for eight years.
Why Ruth Bader Ginsburg regrets her Trump comments
This is an amazingly insane election year. Donald Trump is not running to be president. He is running to be a Hitler, or at least a Putin, or a Saddam, by his own admission. Democracy is in danger. Separation of powers has been in grave danger since Trump went after the "Mexican" judge, and someone from that branch of government needed to call him out on it, and she is the only one who did. Kudos.
Her mind is shot? This from the same guy who called Hillary a mosquito.
Authoritarian government experts will tell you, those in power start referring to people as insects before they get ready to kill in large numbers. First you strip away the humanity, then you do your deed.
These are not harmless words from someone lunging for the nuclear code.
The country should be afraid. Very afraid.
