Well, you’re missing out on a lot of good folks and beauty, but the NAACP also issued a travel warning for Black Americans to avoid Missouri altogether, so you’ll be in good company. Those of us who are inside fighting will do what we can without you. Have a good evening.

Except Gotti was smarter, braver, and more disciplined than Trump. And a better businessman.

The Repub party has been doing it's best to scare the hell out of its voters for decades now. That's how they control them and motivate them to always vote (R). Without hate and fear the GOP would have no issues at all.

In Congress any Dem is better than any Repub, regardless of who it is. That's because every Dem adds one to the headcount used to determine which party controls the House or Senate.

Manchin may not have much in his head, but it still counts.

I realize that every state has a lot of good and interesting people. The problem is that as long as the voters send scum to Congress I can't have any respect for those states.

Yeah, but they'll be told to blame it on Obama and they'll believe it.

In 2016 STL elected a young black man, Bruce Franks, as State Representative, but the bastards really ended up getting him down. These freedom fighters in St. Louis are like Atlas trying to hold the weight of the world on their backs.

Correct, that's what I think. Let public employees unionize, and you get Scott Walker and Trump winning Wisconsin

I am so here for this. It's like smelling someone make popcorn, if the popcorn was justice flavored.

No, but it's easy. No thinking required. Just believe and do as you're told. Preferably while shouting "Freedom!"

People like that make life tougher for the rest of us too. I guess it's partly the educational system in our country, but seem people seem to be born unable to think or see shades of gray.
