This kind of freaked me out this morning:
My DD has gotten in the habit of watching CNN before she leaves for work and they had several Trump voters on for a year check-up on how they felt Trump was doing thus far. One F, a couple of B's and several A's for grades. One man said something to the effect of: If Jesus Christ came down from the cross and told me Trump colluded with Russia, I'd tell Jesus to wait because I have to check with the President to see what the truth is. (and I don't believe the reporter asked him about Russia, so this was unprompted)
What?!? What kind of cultish following is this? I worry for the minds of his core base. And that makes me worry for us all.

Trump voter: If Jesus Christ told me Trump colluded with Russia, I’d check with Trump BY AVERY ANAPOL - 11/20/17 07:23 AM EST A man who said he voted for President Trump in 2016 said on Monday that if Jesus Christ told him Trump colluded with Russia, he would still have to check with the president to see if it was true. “If Jesus Christ gets down off the cross and told me Trump is with Russia, I would tell him, 'Hold on a second. I need to check with the president if it's true,’” said Mark Lee, one of six Trump voters to appear on a CNN panel Monday morning. Lee said he believes in the president and his mission of “draining the swamp.” “Trump is there for the small guy; he’s there for people like myself,” Lee said. Lee described the “swamp” as “the mainstream, the elites that look down on a guy like me.” Ruben Estrada, another panelist, also spoke about the importance of draining the swamp of political elites, referring specifically to the House and Senate. “You make it more accountable to the people,” Estrada said. Lee said that he doesn’t believe having multimillionaires in Trump’s Cabinet is counterproductive to Trump’s “drain the swamp” message. “I love that,” he said. “They’re not politicians.” thehill.com/homenews/administration/361158-trump-voter-if-jesus-christ-told-me-trump-colluded-with-russia-idYup he said it...............

Brit Hume..... “Mike Pence’s policy of avoiding being alone with women other than his wife looking better every day, though widely mocked when it first became known.” No all this says is Mike Pence doesn’t trust himself to keep his hands where they belong. Probably not—he probably is more likely to insinuate that the women are jezebel’s and enticers—that these poor powerful men just are not able to resist their womanly wiles.

SF Gate...
“SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — Former U.S. President Bill Clinton visited Puerto Rico on Monday and met with those left homeless after Hurricane Maria hit the U.S. territory as a Category 4 storm.
Clinton arrived with medical supplies and solar energy equipment donated by the Clinton Foundation, which has already shipped 76 tons of medicine and medical equipment since the storm hit on Sept. 20.
Clinton also visited health clinics and the island's largest shelter with Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello. He was scheduled to meet with San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz and other officials later Monday.”
Good News here is the former President didn’t throw rolls of paper towels at the people. He actually brought items the people can use.

This from Chris Hayes
“So Doug Jones, a lifelong prosecutor who convicted the monsters that murdered four little girls is "soft on crime," but Roy Moore, the district attorney alleged to have molested a child and sexually assaulted a 16yo is not.
Got it.”
Is in response to this comment by grabber-in-chief...
“Trump, commenting on Roy Moore sexual assault allegations: “You don't need someone who's soft on crime like [Doug] Jones.”
We’ve come to this. Sad.

dt says it is ok to vote for Moore so he can pass the tax bill................ Here goes......................... On the Senate race in Alabama: "We don’t need a liberal person in there, a Democrat, Jones. I’ve looked at his record. It’s terrible on crime. It’s terrible on the border. It’s terrible on military. I can tell you for a fact we do not need somebody who’s going to be bad on crime, bad on borders, bad for the military, bad for the Second Amendment." On the allegations: "He denies it. Look, he denies it. If you look at what is really going on, if you look at all the things that have happened over the last 48 hours. He totally denies hit. He says it didn’t happen. And you know you have to look at him also. He says 40 years ago this did not happen." On if he'll campaign for Moore: "I’ll be letting you know next week. But I can tell you, you don’t need somebody who’s soft on crime like Jones." On women: "Women are very special. I think it’s a very special time. There’s a lot of things that’s coming out. I think it’s good for our society. I think it’s very, very good for women and I’m very happy a lot of this is coming out. I’m very happy it’s being exposed." www.cnn.com/2017/11/21/politics/donald-trump-roy-moore-alabama/index.htmlTalk about a pig!

Pastor: Moore dated 'younger ladies' for their 'purity'BY JOSH DELK - 11/21/17 06:41 PM EST A pastor this week defended GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore for pursuing "younger ladies," following accusations that Moore harassed and assaulted teenage girls when he was in his 30s. Pastor Flip Benham, who appeared alongside other anti-abortion advocates at a press conference with Moore last week, suggested Monday on an Alabama radio show that there was nothing wrong with dating younger women, saying that Moore never did so without their parents' permission. "The lady that he’s married to now, Ms. Kayla, is a younger woman. He did that because there is something about a purity of a young woman, there is something that is good, that's true, that's straight and he looked for that," Benham told radio hosts Matt Murphy and Andrea Lindenberg in an interview first highlighted by the liberal media watchdog Right Wing Watch.

Trump backing Moore because Jones is "soft on crime."
You know, Jones, who prosecuted KKK members who killed 4 little girls.
I guess Jones is "soft on crime" like Trump is "a military vet".

From our illustrates thin skinned petty vengeful president...
It wasn’t the White House, it wasn’t the State Department, it wasn’t father LaVar’s so-called people on the ground in China that got his son out of a long term prison sentence - IT WAS ME. Too bad! LaVar is just a poor man’s version of Don King, but without the hair. Just think..
...LaVar, you could have spent the next 5 to 10 years during Thanksgiving with your son in China, but no NBA contract to support you. But remember LaVar, shoplifting is NOT a little thing. It’s a really big deal, especially in China. Ungrateful fool!“
Can someone explain to me why we should be thankful this guy is the president?
Anyone from the “But Hillary” group like to chime in here?
Anyone?

linkSince the Net Neutrality thread is not marked “Politics” I will Post my remarks here about this little gem fro Politico... The Obama administration’s net neutrality rules met their all-but-certain demise Tuesday as Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai outlined a plan to repeal them — while making sure states can't impose their own regulations to fill the void.”
This a typical move by the new GOP. If they don’t like something like for an example increasing the minimum wage then the state legislature makes it illegal for the cities and counties to increase the minimum wage higher than the state’s minimum wage. It seems we are about to experience that on the Federal level with this proposed move by the FCC.

Some where else I had read that one of the women who has accused him was in the same class as his wife. How pure were his thoughts? ETA:I need to update.... supposedly Moore saw her at a dance recital when she was 15 but supposedly met her when she was 23.

It's all about Me!
President Trump sent a Thanksgiving Day message to the nation Thursday: It's time to be very grateful. To him.
In an early-morning tweet, Trump wrote: "your Country is starting to do really well. Jobs coming back, highest Stock Market EVER, Military getting really strong, we will build the WALL, V.A. taking care of our Vets, great Supreme Court Justice, RECORD CUT IN REGS, lowest unemployment in 17 years….!” USA Today.
Let's remember that last year our President spent the day serving meals to homeless Veterans, this year our President is golfing at Mar-A-Lago.
