trump... “big, fat, waste of time, energy and money - $30,000,000 to be exact. It is now finally time to turn the tables and bring justice to some very sick and dangerous people who have committed very serious crimes, perhaps even Spying or Treason. This should never happen again!” I took trump 8 hours and a round of golf to finish his thoughts on the last three tweets he started this morning. Why do we accept a president that threatens citizens? When will we demand it stop? When will the rest of the government take action? Will it take Comey and Mueller being "disappeared" with a black bag over their head and into the back of a van for America to do something?

Concerning, if true........... Pollster Dritan Nesho said in an interview that aired Friday on Hill.TV's "What America's Thinking" that there is a shift in independent voters' views of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe. "Who you see shifting in terms of their opinions are independents," Nesho, the CEO of HarrisX, told host Jamal Simmons on Wednesday. "Republicans have largely been consistent in their view of the investigation, considering it to be biased or in many cases, baseless," he continued. "Democrats have been very consistent in their view of the investigation, considering it to be absolutely necessary and believing that there was evidence of collusion or obstruction beyond some of the actions that Trump had taken," he said. "It's the independents in the middle that right now are breaking in favor of the president, [and] largely accept [Attorney General William] Barr's memo and his conclusions," he said. The interview was conducted before Barr released a redacted version of Mueller's long-anticipated report on Thursday. ** thehill.com/hilltv/what-americas-thinking/439722-pollster-says-there-is-a-shift-in-independent-voters-views-of

Where do I even start? I'm glad this guy personally isn't a threat to those he threatened. But that hate mentality, fueled by presidential rhetoric, is a cancer that infects more than just him. I think a lot of the country would be surprised to know just how many hold hate like that. And that's where the danger lies. And then, by the fact that he left a traceable voicemail, and his limited juvenile vocabulary, I can tell he is most likely part of the population Trump has left behind. And he doesn't realize that by Trump turning dumb racist white guys against any POC or government officials that speak against Trump, they won't even realize the damage Trump does to our country.

What is on trump’s mind this morning before he hit the links...
trump..
”Despite the fact that the Mueller Report should not have been authorized in the first place & was written as nastily as possible by 13 (18) Angry Democrats who were true Trump Haters, including highly conflicted Bob Mueller himself, the end result is No Collusion, No Obstruction!”
“The Fake News Media is doing everything possible to stir up and anger the pols and as many people as possible seldom mentioning the fact that the Mueller Report had as its principle conclusion the fact that there was NO COLLUSION WITH RUSSIA. The Russia Hoax is dead!”
”United States weekly jobless claims just hit a 50 year low. The economy is doing GREAT!”
”The end result of the greatest Witch Hunt in U.S. political history is No Collusion with Russia (and No Obstruction). Pretty Amazing!”

linkCNN... “From 'total exoneration' to 'total bullsh**': Trump lingers on damning report”“Washington(CNN) By the time President Donald Trump had passed through the prime rib buffet at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday to sit for dinner with family and a top aide, the damning picture Robert Mueller's report painted of his presidency had become clear. Instead of the "total exoneration" Trump had proclaimed earlier, the report portrayed the President as deceitful and paranoid, encouraging his aides to withhold the truth and cross ethical lines in an attempt to thwart a probe into Russia's interference in US elections -- his "Achilles heel," according to one forthcoming adviser.Perhaps more angering to a leader who detests weakness -- but doesn't necessarily mind an amoral reputation -- were the number of underlings shown ignoring his commands, privately scoffing at the "crazy sh**" he was requesting and working around him to avoid self-implication.Now, those close to him say Trump is newly furious at the people -- most of whom no longer work for him -- whose extensive interviews with the special counsel's office created the epic depiction of an unscrupulous and chaotic White House. And he's seeking assurances from those who remain that his orders are being treated like those of a president, and not like suggestions from an intemperate but misguided supervisor.”And “But Trump grew angry as he watched cable news coverage because, sources familiar with the matter said, a theme was emerging that vexed him: a portrait of a dishonest president who is regularly managed, restrained or ignored by his staff.”

”The Mueller report makes clear that the worst impulses of @realdonaldtrump were thwarted by those around him who refused to act on his malign orders. All of them are gone. So who is there to stop him now?”
Good question...

Both parties should think again. Provide a path to legalization or citizenship for productive immigrants, and offer energy companies an incentive to transition their workforce to renewable products over a period of time. If Texas is turned blue in the next election, it will be by a tiny margin. No Democrat who wants to win Texas will do so by telling many thousands of people she's about to eleminate their jobs and bankrupt their companies.

So right (that's one of the things that got HRC with the coal mines).... Personally I prefer no NEW drilling, where there is no offshore drilling, and shut down all new and most drilling on public lands..

I’m thinking she is talking about new off shore drilling and new drilling on public lands which is what trump and company are moving towards. I could be wrong about what she means. But I want a Democrat to undo every single EO trump signed and every single change made to EPA guidelines and policies enacted during the “trump years” when it comes to the environment. I want them all gone and if during the trump years some jobs were created at the expense of the environment that will be lost, then I’m sorry but we must protect the environment. All the jobs in the world is not going to do us any good if we can’t breath the air or drink the water.

I guess we can live in the park on air and water when we lose our home because DH has spent his whole career in offshore drilling services and currently works for a large company that does nothing else. 🙄 You've been so quick to dismiss the GND because you feel like there is no solid plan for implementation, and I don't disagree with you, but I think we also need to be thoughtful in how we undertake "revenge" revocation of Trump's EOs. Offshore drilling didn't spring up overnight and wasn't invented by Trump, and we're talking about billion dollar companies and many lives, families and careers, not just a few jobs. Fortunately, I don't think Warren is the type to act recklessly, and I hope the other candidates aren't, either.

Fortunately, I don't think Warren is the type to act recklessly, and I hope the other candidates aren't, either. It’s not revenge, it’s putting it back to the way it was. What trump and the EPA and Interior Dept. are doing is dismantling the policies put in place by The Obama Administration. Over turning them one by one. I want them back. In California, I do not want any more offshore drilling platforms. The key words here are “any more”. The ones that exist will eventually disappear as the country turns away from fossil fuels. The key word here is “eventually”. I also question the the wisdom of heavily investing in an industry that success or failure depends on the whim of the Saudis and other OPEC countries. If I’m not mistaken that after oil production ramped up under Obama, the Saudis flexed their muscles and caused a world of hurt to the industry, mostly in Texas. One would think after the oil embargo of the 1970’s this country would be further along removing ourselves from the whims of other countries. It has has to be the scariest thing to think your job is going to disappear tomorrow. But the reality is, 40-45% of the jobs that exist today will be gone within in the next 20 years. (CBS Sunday Morning program on jobs) Jobs that we can’t even imagine today will replace them. Because of this reality, we don’t need to trash the environment anymore then we already have, we just have to be smart in how we approach the changes that we can’t stop.

Jon Cryer...
”Here’s my theory on Trump (and I’ll be thrilled to be proven wrong): Putin may be the richest man on earth. He surrounds himself with ultra-billionaire oligarch subordinates who reinforce and profit from his nationalist klepto-state as he rules
Trump wants to join this club /1”
”This group’s hope is to turn other western states into nationalist klepto-states in order to increase their profits and neuter any threat to their criminal enterprise, be it international law, law enforcement or military conflict. (Except the conflicts they can profit from. )”
“As the Italian mob was supplanted in NYC by Russian Mafiya in the 90’s, Trump’s history of dealing with oligarchs as a landlord and occasional money launderer got him in initial contact with them. /3”
“Trump is a narcissistic con man who understands he’ll always be a piker in this club of actual mega-wealth, so his plan was to run for President to heighten his profile and position himself to own a Fox News-style media empire when he lost the election. (Remember “Trump TV”?) /4”
”He pursued the Moscow Trump Tower as a means to give himself entry into this world and kept up his efforts all through the election because he figured once he lost, no one would care. /5”
”Trump also aided Russia’s attack on our election by denying its existence and made the Ukraine concessions to the GOP platform in an effort to curry favor with Putin for an eventual deal. And his anti Hillary efforts would help his bonafides for his network even if he lost. /6”
”While his ego made him want to win the election, he didn’t expect to. He figured he could ride the right wing rage at a Hillary victory to a lucrative place as a right wing demagogue and media tycoon. /7”
”Trump assembled a campaign of hucksters and criminals because a) they were just in his circle of friends, and b) because they’d work for free hoping for a corrupt and massive payoff down the line (hello Michael Flynn and Paul Manafort) /8”
”This is why he made so many huge empty promises during the campaign, he never thought he’d actually have to follow through and keep them. /9”
”It’s why he had no actual plan to replace Obamacare. It’s why his administration was a disaster from day one. /10”
“And since he still wants to be in the oligarch club, it’s why he sucks up to Putin. Why he antagonizes NATO and our traditional allies. Why he sucks up to Kim Jong Un. Why he puts corrupt oligarch-wannabes in cabinet positions to sell off and sell out Americans. /11”
”I don’t hate Trump. He shows all the symptoms of having a severe mental disorder. He cannot help his desperate, frantic need for validation. In his heart, he knows he’s a blowhard grifter born into enormous wealth.
Even he knows he’s unfit for the presidency. /12”
“And sadly, because patriotism and unfettered capitalism are hallmarks of the modern GOP, Trump has been able to warp the party into one that supports turning America into another nationalist klepto-state.
Unless the GOP wises up and decides to stop him. 13/“
“Of course, there’s plenty of evidence to suggest the GOP is irretrievably corrupt and there’s no chance they’ll abandon Trump. In which case, the next two years will just be more of their frenzied attempts to cover for him as what’s left of his agenda collapses.”

”Eric Swalwell on the Mueller report: "There's nothing that says we should go farther away from impeachment. I think it's a conversation we have to have as far as how do you hold this president accountable, how do you set a standard for a future president."
I’m not a fan if Eric Swalwell But I agree with the bolded sentence. trump, compared to the long list of presidents, is an anomaly. The fact that he got elected in the first place should concern us all. We, as a country, need to understand and accept the simple fact that as important as a candidates positions are on the issues, his or her character must be weighted just carefully as his or her position on those issues.

”The Trump Haters and Angry Democrats who wrote the Mueller Report were devastated by the No Collusion finding! Nothing but a total “hit job” which should never have been allowed to start in the first place!”
”Despite No Collusion, No Obstruction, The Radical Left Democrats do not want to go on to Legislate for the good of the people, but only to Investigate and waste time. This is costing our Country greatly, and will cost the Dems big time in 2020!
”Can you believe that I had to go through the worst and most corrupt political Witch Hunt in the history of the United States (No Collusion) when it was the “other side” that illegally created the diversionary & criminal event and even spied on my campaign? Disgraceful!”

I keep talking about how important character is in whoever we elect to be president and decided to look up the definition of character.
char·ac·ter
the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual.
synonyms: personality, nature, disposition, temperament, temper, mentality, turn of mind, psychology, psyche, constitution, makeup, make, stamp, mold, cast; More
It was the synonyms that caught my eye. In all honesty can anyone make the case that trump gets at least a passing grade in any of those characteristics?

ReutersAnd then we have this. And yes we can hold trump responsible for this. “FBI arrests leader of armed group stopping migrants in New Mexico”
From the article... ”TAOS, N.M. (Reuters) - The FBI on Saturday said it had arrested Larry Hopkins, the leader of an armed group that is stopping undocumented migrants after they cross the U.S.-Mexico border into New Mexico. The arrest came two days after the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) accused the group of illegally detaining migrants and New Mexico's Democratic Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham ordered an investigation. Hopkins, 69, also known as Johnny Horton, was arrested in Sunland Park, New Mexico, on a federal complaint charging him with being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition, the Federal Bureau of Investigation said in a statement.” We're not worried about it, he's going to be cleared," said Jim Benvie, a spokesman for the United Constitutional Patriots (UCP), blaming his arrest on political pressure from Lujan Grisham. Hopkins is the "national commander" of the UCP, which has had around half a dozen members camped out on a rotating basis near Sunland Park since late February. PATRIOTS OR FASCISTS?The UCP describes itself as a "patriot group" helping U.S. Border Patrol cope with record numbers of Central American families crossing the border to seek asylum. Dressed in camouflage and carrying rifles, UCP members have helped U.S. Border Patrol detain over 5,600 migrants in the last two months, Benvie said. Videos posted online by the group show members telling migrants to stop, sit down, and wait for agents to arrive. Critics accuse the UCP of impersonating law enforcement. Crowdfunding sites PayPal and GoFundMe on Friday barred the group, citing policies not to promote hate or violence, after the ACLU called the UCP a "fascist militia." Today's arrest by the FBI indicates clearly that the rule of law should be in the hands of trained law enforcement officials, not armed vigilantes," New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas said in a statement of Hopkins's arrest. Hopkins was previously arrested in Oregon in 2006 on suspicion of impersonating a police officer and being a felon in possession of a firearm, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.“
