    To insure a righteous and permanent stain on Tiny’s legacy, impeach him. it doesn’t matter if the Senate refuses to convict – the stain of impeachment remains. All he can do to turn it into a win is to claim impeachment is a high honor that few are able to achieve.

    Some stains come out in the hot water cycle.

    Some stains are indelibly inscribed in the “whitewash” and “spin cycle” steps of the laundering process (and for Trump and his Russian puppet-masters, that means MONEY laundering and voter manipulation).

    The most indelible stains will require mobilization of anti-fascist, anti-Russian, anti-voter suppression pro-democracy as to create the cheat-proof majorities that Al Gore (2000) and Hillary Clinton (2016) achieved in fact, but not in reality.

    When I saw the ‘whitewash’ on the cycle, the first thing that came to mind was ‘brainwash!’

    Disgusting Tyrant is a permanent stain on the history of our nation. No amount of whitewashing will ever hide it.

    Unfortunately, some fabrics leak color and stain everything else around them. Annoyingly enough, those stains become quite permanent. Our country is in the middle of such a wash cycle. It will take a long time before we overcome these stains.

    Mitch McConnell won’t allow anything from the house up for vote that Trump does not like. The senate and WH are working as one unit.

    The House has control of the WH purse strings, they should deny the WH a budget as long as Mitch refuses to bring things up for a vote.

    The only persons that cleansing cycle works on are Glorious Leader and his True Believers. Reality is warping but will prove flexible. The best next question is, will Glorious Leader get re-elected ?

    You can’t normalize something that is legendarily ABNORMAL. (You get the feeling Trump’s supporters spend a lot of time going round and round in the dryer? They sure seem dizzy to me!)

    For medium carbon steel it’s heat to 1600F for 2hour per inch of thickness then cool in still air at room temperature.

    No wonder Putin picked Trump.

    “Normal” the way the Clintons and Obamas were? Trump is too honest and outspoken to be like Hillary “You Mean Wipe It Like With a Cloth?” Clinton and Barack “I will have more flexibility after the election” Obama. “Normal” presidents failed us, which is why we elected a loud-mouthed New Yorker who at least speaks his mind.

    Trump’s Federal Reserve Pick Said The Working Poor Aren’t Taxed Enough

    Stephen Moore also once noted that income inequality is a problem — and the solution is more billionaires.

    Another day, another disqualifying set of realizations about Stephen Moore, President Donald Trump’s pick for a seat on the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors.

    Mother Jones resurfaced the latest set of offensive comments by Moore, which he made at a 2012 fundraising dinner for the Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom, a C-SPAN appearance and a 2013 appearance at FreedomFest, a libertarian conference.

    (A rundown of some of Moore’s other greatest hits include him effectively defending everything that contributes to sexual assault on college campuses, calling female referees “an obscenity” and taunting his ex-wife while cheating on her.)

    Among the more questionable ideas Moore espoused in the comments Mother Jones flagged concern income inequality, and suggest he either doesn’t understand economic fundamentals (which is possible) or ― arguably worse ― he does, but intentionally misleads audiences for the sake of applause.

    At his CCHF speech, for instance, Moore drew plenty of applause with a diatribe against the working poor, whom he attacked for not having to pay income tax. He told the audience that’s equivalent to half of the event’s attendees only covering 2 percent of their food costs, while the other half were forced to pick up the extra burden.

    At the time of Moore’s speech in 2012, people excused from paying federal income tax would have had precious little income to begin with. Per Mother Jones’ research, a single filer making less than $5,950, a single parent making less than $8,700, and a married household earning less than $11,900 all qualified for exemption.

    Are you as sick and tired as I am of America being governed by what ever Delusional Donald sees on Fox ‘news’?
