Talking about the Union ruling?

People are (justifiably) freaking out and calling for every possible play in the book to fight. I hope the momentum to fight lasts.

Sooner or later it would have happened. Expect another four from Trump. Democrats will underestimate him again; a platform based on "no to Trump" won't win. Note that I am an equal opportunity hater of both parties.

Not unless they impeach him @purr1n. Dude has got to go.

People who value A) facts and reality and B) compassion and humanity have little choice but to vote democrat for the foreseeable future. Hold your nose if you must, but vote. Vote for democrats. In every election. Standing on the sidelines out of purity is no longer a feasible option. I wish we had that luxury. In a healthy and functioning democracy, we would. But we do not.

Vote blue, and keep selling the country piece by piece to overseas interest's? Not me.

@JK47 whose interests, in your opinion, are being served by the current admin and president?

@Boops Don't feed the troll. No one cares what he thinks anyway.

I’m not here to argue for your vote, only voicing mine.

I wasn’t asking you to persuade me or looking for an argument. I wanted to know what you thought.

POTUS is serving the red neck, pro wrestling, carniverous, non vege eating sons of bitches , and proves that anyone that had a dream, no matter how far fetched it was, they can come true. Or horrible nightmare for others.

For the record, I still think he's better than the alternative, but he wasn't my choice.

LOL. I voted for Trump as a protest to my family's healthcare going from $400 per month with HSA contribution (HSAs. What a concept! Saving for a rainy day) to $1200 a month with no HSA option. Trump had no chance in hell in CA. So not a big deal. I really didn't want him to win anyway.

"Wise" legislation intended to ensure that banks wouldn't be too big to fail wrecked the community banking niche, which I was a part of. The onerous regulations caused the small banks to quit. My family spent one year in purgatory because of this. It's not politics to me. It's personal. I don't trust government to be competent.

If you still think what we've got is preferable, the alternative you imagined must have been really f'ing bad.

Sorry that happened Marv.

Three questions to ask about any political candidate: 1) Is X competent? = Can X do the job well? 2) Can X win? 3) Is X ethical? I seldom get to asking whether the person agrees with me.

I think the question most answer is ignoring all of those and answering, "Does this person align up with my beliefs and world view."
