I......I am without words.
I literally don't know what to say.

Anderson Cooper came back with well have we ever seen a more disgraceful press conference from a President. David Gergen is dumbstruck And Jim Acosta is almost speechless. I know it's bad, like bad bad bad, but I didn't want you hyperventilating at your desk alone.

I know that this isn't a hot take, but I think that Trump is absolutely compromised and he needs to go. I'm seriously baffled that the Republican party is still on board with him. He delivered the bullshit tax cuts y'all wanted, at this point he is taking you down a weird road.

Then they’ve ticked off their major boxes and he becomes unnecessary. Plus, if he reaches a certain point in his term, Pence can still run for re-election twice.

I......I am without words. I literally don't know what to say. I want someone to intelligently defend this, without mentioning the words: Obama, Hillary, Democrats, liberals, etc. I know there's no good explanation for anyone still defending him other than blind hatred for one of the aforementioned four, but seriously. At what point do we reach the point of no return?

This is beyond comprehension. Even for him.
I’m trying to choose my words carefully, but the time for civility and negotiations with this administration has long passed. I’m afraid this is going in the history books as the time America was forever altered. The fact that this blatant bowing to Russia is going unchecked and even defended by the GOP is very scary. I am going to vote and push everyone to vote blue in November but I have little hope that a democratic election process will take place in any way, shape, or form.

I also believe many of the GOP believe as Trump does, have for awhile, and finally feel emboldened enough to be upfront about it.

Huntsman’s former chief campaign strategist calls for him to resign: What did Huntsman do? I'm in information overload. He is the current US Ambassador to Russia.

I mean you probably already know that, but he is in general giving lots of interviews to help facilitate 'all this'.

I've been saying it since election day, but people keep arguing with me that Pence can't get elected on his own, and he's been tainted by 45.

This is all so f-ed and I share your frustration.

I haven't been in the thread lately, but I just needed to pop in and leave my primal scream here. The void is full and has suggested a pillow. I need to find that tweet. ETA: Sorry. That sounds really snarky without the tweet from which I stole it. It was posted in last week's thread. Maybe the week before.

On the sort-of lighter side, here's a breakdown of what Queen Elizabeth's brooches meant while Trump was here visiting.

After watching The Crown, I've started following QE2 more closely and the woman is truly a marvel. The most unassuming baddest of bad bitches. She wore the brooch Obama gave her..... TEARS Bitch. STILL my superhero name. @samuraiknitter 23h23 hours ago Arrival day was the one that got the most attention. That day, she wore the brooch the Obamas gave her on their last visit to England. queensjewelvault.blogspot.com/2013/08/flashback-state-visit-from-united.html …
