Loud and brassy sometimes good. Sometimes bad.

At Trump rallies, very, very bad.

Here good. "Turn it up now! So you know it's got soul."

Anything wrong with Sandernistas for the Bernie Bros?

“ As one sympathetic biographer wrote in 1991, Sanders “probably has done more than any other elected politician in the country to actively support the Sandinistas and their revolution.” Reflecting on a Potemkin tour of revolutionary Nicaragua he took in 1985, Sanders marveled that he was, “believe it or not, the highest ranking American official” to attend a parade celebrating the Sandinista seizure of power.”

THAT ⬆️ is a ‘must read’ to understand Sander’s psyche. He is a communist at heart and readily approves of thuggery. He’s a bigger danger to the US than Trump.

Zero. She's not porny enough.

Pedantically, I'd go with "Sandersistas."

I'm much further to the left than Sanders. It's a sad reality, but oft times it takes thuggery to beat thuggery.

That is to say, thieves don't generally cough up their ill-gotten gains unless forced.

Know what Trump really hates? "Wire tapps," especially if they're a figment of his imagination and he thinks they're climbing all over him like spiders, having been placed there by Barack Obama.

Maybe he was traumatized by this scene, and fears robot spiders are coming for him some day.

If he really liked you, he'd have pardoned you, not just commuted your sentence you dumbass.

He's not pardoned. Sentence was commuted so it is still on his record.

Turns out, he cannot run for statewide office in Illinois. But he can run for Preznit.

if whatever you have on hand helps, i suggest getting a 20" box fan (if that's not what you already have) . . . cheap, rugged and usually 3-speed (zephyr, gale and tornado) . . . they put out a lot of air over a large area . . . one usually suffices, just place it six or so feet away so the breeze cools most of you.

As a former Illinoisan, the only way I ever wanted to see Blago again was in an orange jump suit, picking up trash along side the Eisenhower expressway.

I can believe it. Just For Men is not a conventional hair dye. And anytime you use hair color and don't follow the directions, the results are going to be weird.

When Bernie Sanders Thought Castro and the Sandinistas Could Teach America a Lesson

(Me - isn’t Bernie supposed to be a liberal)SnipWhile liberal critics of Reagan’s Nicaraguan policy rounded on the Sandinistas (talk-show host Phil Donahue told Ortega that his actions looked “fascist”), Sanders refused to condemn the decision. He was “not an expert in Nicaragua” and “not a Nicaraguan,” he said during a press conference. “Am I aware enough of all the details of what is going on in Nicaragua to say ‘you have reacted too strongly?’ I don’t know…” But of course he did know, later saying that the Sandinistas’ brutal crackdown “makes sense to me.”....When asked about the food shortages provoked by the Sandinistas’ voodoo economic policy, Sanders claimed that bread lines were a sign of a healthy economy, ....And Sanders too was routinely critical of the Kremlin, criticizing the invasion of Afghanistan and acknowledging the lack of freedom in the Soviet Union, while still managing a bit of socialist fraternity, praising Moscow for constructing the “cleanest, most effective mass transit system I have ever seen in my life…you wait 15 seconds in rush hour between trains.” He was “impressed” by the state-run youth programs “which go far beyond what we do for young people in this country.”

⬆️ That gives me visions of children goose stepping...
