You’re right on that we can’t do any of Donald Trump I’m done with Trump he needs to go
Everytime I see his face, my stomach flips!! I’ve never seen anyone so vile, and full of hate, for the Americans, he’s supposed to serve. Except for, the select few, that he gets riled up, to be just as vile and full of hate, as he is!!

Dan Dan you are so right the thought of it is frightening

Erika Johnson well yes! It was 10 months before the election. Mitch McConnell would not let it happen. Listen to what he said back then. That’s the point. Too many Republican senators are hypocrites on this.

Nutritionist Liz it is purely and completely about power, they are drunk on it.
For all you “America First” voters in Kentucky, don’t forget that Mitch gave so many sweetheart deals to his wife’s family in China that her relatives rewarded him with a $55 million inhereitance.
GHY nah.
❣💙💜
Exactly! Kentucky is one of the poorest States yet they just keep voting in McConnell like he’s doing good for them.. It’s because of HIM we don’t have a stimulus package!
Why am I not surprised?
To all the people living in Kentucky

Brett Kavanaugh needs to be removed from SCOTUS and replaced with Merrick Garland.
Garland’s seat went to Gorsuch.
I wish that was possible. …. it’s a life time appointment.
*Middle Class Lost In Obama’s ‘Middle Class Economics’*
Sept 2015 https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/incomes-fall-and-poverty-rises-under-obama-census-report/
*Economy: After six-plus years of President Obama’s big-spending, tax-raising policies, middle-class families have seen their incomes decline and more families have fallen into poverty, Census data show.*
The Census Bureau’s latest annual report on income and poverty in America shows that there was little to cheer about in 2014.
Median family income dropped slightly to $53,657, down from the year before. Every income group suffered losses, with the lowest fifth of households dropping close to 1%.
The overall poverty number barely budged. But it climbed by almost 600,000 among blacks in 2014, more than half of whom were under age 18.
This isn’t exactly the picture that Obama has been painting. In fact, there’s little that Obama likes to do more than brag about the economy.
A couple of months ago, he was in Wisconsin, crediting his policies for “record” job growth, tumbling deficits and big gains in the stock market.
“Step by step, America is moving forward,” he said. “Middle-class economics works. It works. Yes!”
It’s hard to see any evidence of that in the Census numbers. Indeed, the latest report shows that, despite more than six years of economic “recovery,” the middle class is, incredibly, worse off than at the end of the Great Recession.
From 2009 to 2014, real median household income dropped by more than $1,000 — or 2.3% — to $53,657. (And that decline would likely have been steeper if not for a 2013 change in the way the Census does its annual survey.)
Obama’s economy has been particularly harsh on those already at the bottom. Census data show that the bottom fifth of households saw their average income fall by 8% from 2009 to 2014.
Looked at another way, the share of households with incomes below $25,000 climbed from 22.4% to 23.6% over those years.
Among blacks, it went from 35.5% to 36.8%.
The statistics on poverty are just as unpleasant.
In Obama’s first year in office, 43.6 million people — or 14.3% of the population — lived in poverty.
By 2014, that number had climbed by more than 3 million, pushing the poverty rate up to 14.8%.
The poverty rate among blacks was 26.2% last year, up from 25.8% in 2009. Is that “moving forward,” too?
Even the IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism Index is lower today than it was when Obama took office.
If anyone but Obama had presided over such results, his economic legacy would be in shambles and his policies in disrepute.
Kavanagh has had more recent accusations against him. The Democrats, if the win, should reduce the court to 7 and call for a vote of no confidence in Kavanagh.
Democrats are a terrorist organization
At this point vote to get these Cult Members out…Make American Honest Again
What’s the trump Covid plan? Could someone please tell me what it is?
I’d simply say, Make America Better! That’s the progressive idea and message, anyway. It’s important to stay focused on the present and the future, not an imaginary glorious past the way Trump’s boomer base does.
Amerikkka was never honest. It’s now falling like rock..
Democrats are a terrorist organization , vote Trump 2020
@Tricia K That’s an unfortunate attitude.
I’m surprised the people from Kentucky let this man continue to do this when I think of Kentucky I of bluegrass and pretty country not people who would allow a fat dirty rat who steal from his own people to stay on top he doesn’t care about them it’s all about him
I think of ignorant working-class MAGA that vote for Trump and the billionaires to loot from them transferring wealth to the rich while shifting tax burdens to their own struggling Kentucky families.
HE HANDS THEM ENOUGH CRUMBS TO KEEP THEM HAPPY..IF THEY VOTE MOSCOW MITCH OUT….THERE SENATOR WILL NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME IN OFFICE TO HAND OUT CRUMBS…A STATE WITH A NEW SENATOR, RECEIVES LESS FEDERAL FUNDING..THIS IS HOW THEY KEEP VOTING IN SENATORS OVER AND OVER….THINGS NEED DESPERATLY TO CHANGE IN WASHINGTON…VOTE ASAP……THERE ARE OPTIONS FOR DEMOCRATS DON’T GIVE UP HOPE…VOTE ASAP….
Mitch has everything Republicans want in a politician. Morally bankrupt & ethically bereft. He’s been Trump’s No1 Cheerleader. Sad.

Vote for Amy McGrath.
There’s a lot of truth in his name Moscow Mitch.
GET IT RIGHT PLEASE MOSCOW RICH MITCH..THANK YOU….
Senator Gillibrand, at this point we all know that “appealing to the hearts and consciences” of Trump’s Republicans is like trying to bore a hole through a concrete wall by throwing peas at it.
Calling him Turtle—-is an insults to turtles everywhere
But there’s just gotta be evil turtles too. Not eating the right medicinal plants and all!
I think he’s more like a preying mantis
