- Let’s have that vote. Please... Start with a vote on the Qatari plane. Up or down on Trump’s golden plane. Next…a vote on crypto grift, which is another variety of foreign emolument, given all the foreign purchasers. We might find a new bipartisan spirit of anti-corruption zeal! The Contrarian

- Congressional Democrats have been milking big money beside the Republicans for decades. As long as this continues, Democrats will lose. The Democratic Party needs to fight against corruption. Too bad that doesn’t seem like something they are interested in doing.

- Political infighting among the Democrats is dysfunctional. Trying to finagle a win and manipulate people into voting for you will not work. Democrats are engaged, intelligent, educated voters who are watching you. Any Democrats who want a political future must stop being so political.
- This country is overrun with cheap plastic toys. That being said, I worry about what happens to all the jobs and welfare that depend on distributing this cheap plastic stuff from China. Economies are complex.
- If the economy continues to deteriorate, if the regime cuts services …in order to give the oligarchy a huge tax cut…if Trump…openly defies the Supreme Court — the solidarity will pay off in …national anger that Congress impeaches and convicts…before the midterm elections. R.Reich
- The political infighting is bullshit. Trying to finagle a win and manipulate people into voting for you is bullshit. Democrats are engaged, intelligent, educated voters who are watching you. You want a political future stop being so fucking political.
- Can politicians ever stop thinking about what is politically expedient and start thinking about what is right? Doing the right thing is going to make you feel good and, with this kind of scrutiny, will become politically expedient. Democrats….The people are watching you.
- There is a reason why Einstein became more and more liberal as he got older. Generosity and compassion are functional and pragmatic ways to run things. If you want a country to succeed on all levels, you must treat everyone in that country like they are your beloved. This is how we all succeed.
- We are no longer Democrats or Republicans. We are either patriots fighting the Trump regime or we are complicit in its tyranny. There is no middle ground. Now is the time for all of us to become activists. R.Reich
- I truly understand why people who vehemently hate Democrats would know Donald Trump is a horrible person and still vote for him. But… The people who think he’s wonderful… What is up with them?
