I think the thing that Rick Wilson needs to First understand that he was one of the progenitors of the politics that got us exactly where we are today with Trump
and is also why he's so down on Bernie Sanders, calling him a commie? He's still a "Repukin" just selling books, and if Trump offered a nice cushy job he'd be there with bells on and on his knees like the rest of them!
Rick, the reason it abolishes private insurance is because it replaces it with health coverage that is MUCH cheaper, but also actually covers everything you need. Most people think private insurance is shit because for 99% of people it is.
His unveiling of Republicans devious tactics...that mindset has brought us to where we are now. This disrespect and crucifying of character started back in the 70's, which he was a part of doesn't end good for America. This genie can't be put back in the bottle.
One big thing that happened in the 2016 campaign was that DJT got nonstop coverage from the TV networks because he is a TV guy. As against his claims of being "self- funded". He got free advertising.
Nicole Wallace yes… Steve Schmidt who brought us Sarah Palin and Rick Wilson who produced an ad slamming max cleland patriotism are just highly paid propagandists the scourge of our Democracy.
...ignorance of a voter is the best tool used by politicians...they remind us every 4 years how credulous and ignorant most of us are...it works and always will...find the fertile ground and sow the seeds of doubt...why did owners of the country systematically destroyed the public education? ...dumber the nation, easier to govern...
I happen to be one of these moderates Rick Wilson is talking about and I can tell you there would be no way I could be swayed into voting Trump. This moderate is not vulnerable to Trumpian mechanics.
The serious issue I have with Wilson and his Ilk is that he is a professional political strategist first and someone interested in democracy second. If young people do not vote, then reintroduce civics lessons in schools. If pro-life democratic voters are being lost to republicans then amend policy instead of making email lists and knocking on doors. The fundamental problem with american politics is not that government is too big or too small; it is that it has been bought!!!
Go look at the registered voters over the last 100 years. What you will find is that the number of independents are growing steadily over time it is the fastest-growing voter base in the country. So why is that? It is because people are sick of both parties and now have reached a point where they are happy to see both parties in shambles and hope they fall apart. Soon I hope they both disappear into the trash bin of history. Neither party is good for America and the sooner they fall the better it will be for all of us.
Be careful what you wish for. We may end up with a brutal, fascist party on the right led by Trump's successors and an irresponsible far left party that in time could also resort to violence, and a middle just trying to stay out of their way. Our rules are both geared to a two party system and very baked in, third parties have not arisen to occupy the middle for very solid reasons. The normal way to win is for one party or the other to win the middle. Trump actually did that by working on the middle and rights' fears, resentments and hatreds. It may be very hard to repeat that performance, but Trump can win using the same path to victory again. Short of Bernie being the nominee, and maybe not even then, he cannot win the popular vote if it is kept honest (big if). But he can win again in the electoral college. What is needed, beyond not nominating Sanders and making Trump a resident of prison rather than 1600, are structural reforms that force both parties toward the middle, where they used to be to the point that the ideologically overlapped. That actually existed between the end of World War Two and about 1980. Nixon and Reagan did a lot to kill it off by exploiting white resentment against the civil rights agenda. Getting rid of gerrymandering or reverse-engineering gerrymandering (with the goal of producing only the MOST competitive districts, not the least) would be a big step in the right direction.
@Sheryl kimball You are part of the problem. This is how we end up voting for the lesser of two evils. If voters would stop looking at the D's and R's, maybe we could get somewhere.
@@markfrommaryland3825 and voter surpression, taking people off the voting rolls and the gerrymandering has got to be the worst. Maybe wiping out both parties is not a bad idea, make them start out from the beginning the GOP maybe wiped out in November there might be a good start, the GOP going back to the"grand old party"
I am glad you noticed that. Did you also notice how independents NEVER get voted in? Trump IS the independent vote via R party. Is it any wonder everyone is against him? I suggest you do some research on what Trump has been doing for the people that is never published on MSM. They are all corporate-controlled. What Trump is doing IS FOR THE PEOPLE. He said it from day 1 that he will give back government TO THE PEOPLE.
Unfortunately, the Dems continually attack one another vice focusing on kitchen table issues and/or defeating trump. Obama warned them about the "circular firing squad".
Most of them simply are not ready for this amount of truth and facts. Just take Wilson's "young voters simply don't vote". I've been saying the exact same thing to a lot of Democrats (old, middleaged and young). All of them just got mad at me and simply didn't want to acknowledge the facts because they'd collide with their believes. In a lot of way a lot of the democratic voters aren't even THAT different to the MAGAtards
I am part of the Democrat party and all I hear from our leadership is "We can't, we can't, we can't " with no clue of what we can do. We also have amateur politicians who need training and practice on how to respond to constituents and reporters.
@SwiftJustice2020 Oh wait. Are you a Russian, Chinese, Iranian, Assad, Kim Jong Un or a Republican Bot? Just sayin'; it's NOT impossible. If not a Bot... Well that's just unlikely.
It's early June and it feels like Rick Wilson has been right about almost everything so far., and the Lincoln Project is consistently and effectively putting his ideas into practice. It's wonderful to behold.
Rick Wilson, although I appreciate you, I’m grateful for you speaking up and I always appreciate what you do... you are partially responsible for the false reality the Fox crowd lives in today. You laid the groundwork that helped people actually believe Pizzagate. I’m glad you’re atoning for some of it.
I can't actually believe he is atoning -- he still uses unfair and incorrect GOP talking points in his description of Bernie Sanders. Bernie isn't 87 or a Communist, but Rick says this as if the GOP can make the voting public believe these lies. Super cynical guy has a lot to atone for, and apparently wants to crush the hope we have to correct his GOP wrong-doings by electing a progressive candidate and Congress... brandnewcongress.org
ferickson the GOP voters already think Bernie is a crazy old socialist. Progressives are only one section of the base, the dem base is a broad coalition. The GOP only need to make old white people and middle aged white men believe stuff. They are a homogenous base. The democratic nominee needs moderates, progressives, independents and non voters.
corryjookit Because those who care about facts can easily find out Bernie is 78 and a democratic socialist. Those who don’t care about facts won’t care about corrections coming from me.
Dear Madam - YOU are one of THE BEST Intervires in my time (65 years old and informed) and so much appreciation for this intelligent opportunity to share TRUTH with the population who is scrambling for some semblance of understanding 🤗 LOVE the source! Hope ALL whom I love get to see this and HEAR this 👨👩👧👧
Abolishing the electoral college requires a Constitutional Amendment. Do you even know what that entails? 2/3 of the state legislators MUST approve. Why would all those low population states give up their one source of power?
Sandra Gruhle = you think you are wiser ,more intelligent than the founders of your nation ,you want to abolish the electoral college ?you grow up in security ,liberty ,you are the spoilt descendants of the Rich.So that China can send her loyal citizens to become Americans and be elected senators and rule over you.This man speaks too much.
Abolish the electoral college??? And have California and New York control the country?? Isn't it clowns of your ilk who are always talking about leveling the playing field? TRUMP 2020!
Wilson has been a Republican consultant for a long time. I like the guy and he makes a lot of sense... but as a Republican strategist, how is he not partly responsible for the mess we're in now?
@@Finians_Mancave These guys are hired to do a specific job. If he understands how the Republicans operate then that is an advantage. He has been successful and that is what matters, not who he used to work for. These guys make big, big money and are worth it.
Ally Montellano Yang couldn’t get traction with the base, if he was the answer he’d have more support. Anyone but Bloomberg at this point, he’s Trump with a brain, that makes him far more dangerous.
F him he helped get us here! It's all just a game to him...not his family fighting these wars. He's part of the problem. Republicans are not the majority. Get out and vote already.
I’ve suggested this to Dem leadership several times. Like him or no, he understands how to win. We don’t have to go down to their level but we need to up our game considerably.
Rick Wilson has amazing insight, both historically and politically, into our current mess. This was an intelligent conversation and I really enjoyed it.
@Len Smittey hysterical. How many investigations into Clintons and Obama? And... how many indictments? 🤔 How many investigations into Trump and allies? How many indictments? How much actual traitorous behavior? 🤔 Stop getting your information from conspiracy theories. 🤦♀️
You call Sweden a socialist country. This is what Bernie wants in a mild version and we are NOT socialists. We are mainly capitalist country with a slize of socialist policies to easy the sharp edges of capitalism. So this means take the best of two systems and the most from the capitalist one.
This works. Scandinavia allways scores high in freedom, social mobility, happiness, education, etc. Scandinavia should be a model for the rest of the world. Respect (and kind of jealous).

How can you possibly win against folks who aren't against cheating when it's their side doing it? Or who'd rather live in a autocracy if it shuts up the majority of the country? Who'd rather be told what to do by a fake billionaire?
No one cheated but the Democrats. They always do. They just didn't cheat enough to override Trump's votes. That's why they were shocked. They demanded recounts and they were all found to be valid. Where were you?
@@GramPapnedrac That is absolutely untrue--A LIE. Did it tickle you to tell such a whopper that you know we know is a lie? Dems have never cheated, never played games with voter reg, disenfranchising voters. Dems never worked with Putin--Russians did not buy ads lying to make Dems look good. They bought space for fake news stories lying about HRC being a racist, cheating in primaries--50 separate elections...never happened. She simply used rules giving her a say on scheduling, etc in exchange for paying off the party's bills from the Obama yrs. FACT. Bernie never did. Dems have never been charged with any cheating--yet Rs have served time, the party plead guilty, they love to register Dems but then throw out the apps instead of turning them in. FACT. HRC was told by Stein that numbers did not add up--she joined in complaint but dropped it when it did not pan out. THAT is using the procedures in the law--NOT CHEATING. Get that? The cheating was Russian Internet Research Agency social media involvement--stirring up racist beliefs of white voters in midwest--creating protests they handed to Americans, lying that they just could not make it...of course they couldn't--they were deep in Russia! IRA also posted stories praising Trump...FB reported that 104,000,000 accounts received fake news articles from Russians sending them back and forth. "The Pope endorses Trump"--remember that whopper? PizzaGate? Seth Rich? It went on and on--lie after lie. THAT is cheating.
Very good, TE, you've tripped over a truth; we have lived under an autocracy for the past 60 years. Keynesian economics have destroyed the American Dream. We should have been operating under the Austrian School of Economics rather and we'd not be in $T's of debt. Don't forget, Obummer took us into more debt than all prior presidents combined. "W" left a terrible debt legacy, too.
I will risk my life to vote Trump* out. I will stand in line for hours to vote out all the Republicans who have enabled him in a snowy, sleety winter storm. He is turning our democracy into an autocracy right in front of our eyes.
He's correct. Get a better slogan than Malarky, however he's completely wrong about policy. They need to play over and over and over again how he would like to take away Social Security and Medicare. Trump will lose in a heartbeat.
But that’s about a Trump failure and lie not about democratic policies. That’s a winning strategy. Republicans do awful shit because they win elections by being a pigeon playing chess, then once they’re in they pass stupid policies that hurt the people that voted for them. Policies are only important in the primaries, in the general they should just be hammering Trump and showing they are reasonable and not criminal.
@@katymcdonald5481 Sure I agree. People want to hear what their government is doing for them. Not what they could do by getting involved in their own government, even in the smallest and least invasive way, voting. We now have some of the biggest MLMers in this admin., and they are running the biggest Multi-Level-Marketing scheme aka Trickle Down, that's ever been seen. First of all they have the big conferences (T Rallys) that whip up people to buy what they're selling. A big group of people aren't going to realize it until they have a garage full of Amway and yoga pants they can't pawn off to the next guy because the next guy has his own garage full of crap. It's only then they're going to wake up and realize they were duped in the biggest Ponzi scheme ever invented. What's the magic potion we can give to wake them up from the derangement syndrome they want to accuse us of having?
Evelyn Jackson oh yes and he’s a paragon of truth lol.

This is the test America(ns) must encounter and overcome. Do we want to continue down the slippery slope into a dictatorship and big money/corporate governance, or do we fully realize the destructive forces of trump and the GOP, and take action and ensure he and his party are voted out? Instead of "draining the swamp" we have become more immersed in it. The destruction of our Democratic Republic is becoming more clear/damaging every day trump remains in office.
We only just managed to get rid of "Hair Furher Trump" because of his Cheating, Lyin and the Rethuglicans ran the "Socialist" play book that they had intended to run against Bernie against Biden and now 9/12/21, we have Joe Manchin blocking Biden's Agenda on Voting Rights and the Infrastructure Bill and yet he's been warned that we, moderate Liberals, are going to be running someone against him, his favourable/unfavourable numbers are tanking and he's got to the Midterms to change his ways, Kristen Sinama is tanking because she won't be an actual Democrat maybe she thinks she's a Rethuglican but she's put a Wrench in the Works and seems to be Trolling the Arizona Democrats, although Captain Mark Kelly who was Elected to John McCain's seat is really popular with the people of the State, but we're not quite out of the woods yet we have to get some movement with Biden's Agenda otherwise we'll be in trouble with the same problem as Obama, everything blocked by the Rethuglicans and Constant attempts at Impeachment as most people have forgotten that the Rethuglicans tried to Impeach Obama multiple times for 13 different reasons (including the Tan Suit) and we have the Insurrection Caucus trying to Impeach Biden before they are able and they want to Impeach VP Harris which leaves President Nancy Pelosi and I don't think they've thought of that, well it is Margarine QAnon Greene and Lauren "Guns" Boebert that's Cheer Leading the Clown Car of Stupidity.....
I love this man's style of rhetoric. I like calling a spade a spade. Thank god, someone knows the math. He is the numbers man and Democrats must hear and heed.
Bernard Liu Democrats need to declare a clear agenda and unite around a vicious candidate. Form a team around the candidate, get progressive, economist and regulators to affirm team effectiveness. Americans need assurances ....
Sooo, this person worked to set up this political system for 30 years and now he realizes what he has accomplished and wants the democrats to rescue the nation from the mess he made. Oh, and buy my book. He's right about Trump and his family. He's right about voting. Don't forget it.
oh yea such a dignified idiot... you are not removing Trump and he will be RE-ELECTED. What is bad is all these hucksters are losing their illicit sources of income.
I just keep thinking what the election and continued support of Trump says about millions of Americans. Millions believe "putting kids in gages" is just fine and as Wilson said "it's evil". In the Trump era, I have feelings like I had at the height of my PTSD ie I am living in a country of evil people and I'm not safe. Americans will gleefully support the reduction of school lunches, leave elderly people without health care, support torture of others and the rest of the incredibly long list of evil actions. While we point at Trump, the real issue is us.
what a scary guy Rick Wilson is...he is extremely smart, intelligent and fast thinking...luckily he is honest in pointing out the tactics of Trump and the consequenses if Trump gets 4 more years.
He's pretty arrogant, but I agree. Arrogant like Bill Clinton, arrogant like Tom Brady, arrogant like Mozart. If you have the goods, you're still arrogant, but only the stupid deny the talent. I just read the new book, recommend it, and think he is about 99 percent on target. He does overstate the unimportance of the youth vote, I think he means that they are the least cost effective set of voters to pursue, you get the least bang for the buck. Usually true, maybe less so than usual. I taught HS government for three decades, and I have never seen opinion run so strongly against any politician, ever. Maybe it is different in parts of the South and Midwest, but in Northern Virginia, 80 percent of seniors simply despise Donald Trump, and see him as a dinosaur standing in the way of reality seven ways from Sunday. I think they are much more motivated to vote than in 2016. They may make a difference in key states. It is an error to ignore them. Other than that, pretty dead on.
Does it disturb you that so many people who are Democrats on this thread are so thoroughly in denial about what it is going to take to win in 2020, and what has to be minimized or avoided to do so? I can deal with the Republicans who can't forgive his apostasy about Trump because they can't deal with the fact that a turncoat hardass who can see Trump's vulnerabilities clearly is on the other team, sort of, especially because they can't admit that if Trump is a Death Star, he's one with a thousand vulnerabilities, not just one. His path to victory is just as narrow as it was in 2016, right? (Unless Democrats choose Bernie and I would sadly add, maybe also Elizabeth Warren, whom I admire). What bothers me is how unreal the Democrats are about the nature of politics, as if they can reinvent it in this election, on the fly. As Anurin Bevan said, politics is a blood sport. In autocracies, literally so. Most of the commenters have not come to terms with what it will take to dethrone would-be King Donald the Grifter. You'd think that the way that the impeachment unfolded in both the House and the Senate would be a wake up call. What do you think?
@@markfrommaryland3825 Troubling situation. Vote for Hillary's depravity or Jill Stein's nobility. Gggggfglf Bernie offers a countermeasure that would open the door to channeling some of the nation's tightly horded largess to the underpriviledged. But does a Bernie vote support Trump. Hedges can't vote Dem becz they are sooo republican. Vis a vis your question....ongoing dilemma.
The definition for both parties has drastically changed so much over my short life. Can they even really be considered a shadow of what they ised to be and how much has our media been to blame for this?
Our media give us what we want via ratings. It is our fault as we as a country have set back and let this happen. Hopefully, enough of us are now paying attention to make sure the 2020 elections removed Trump and a lot of his Republican enablers.
@@rickdfw5005 If you were serious about letting this happen you should seek other information. Trump is doing things to save this country from Central Bankers and world government. Ignorance because of the propaganda is their hope to keep control. It is not that you are not paying attention, but who you are paying attention to. Please read the plans for Agenda 21and Agenda 30.
@@GramPapnedrac You do not appear to be paying attention. Trump is insane, a criminal, and generally incompetent, and far-right-wing conspiracies theories, lies, spin, and general chaos is not going to change that. You are the one pushing an agenda and have decided the goals justify the means. A plan that always blows up with unintended consequences and generally ends in disaster as history has barred out many times in the past. Trump is out to control the Central Bankers and become the World Government. He is not saving this country he has made it a laughing stock all over the world and if you can not see that. You are either not paying attention or a part of the problem.
No better observation, thank you Rick Wilson for speaking “real” truth. The SMARTEST political observer of today’s reality.., (I’m a full progressive liberal man from the 60s 70s)
I understand what you are saying about Sanders, but I really think he is the only person there that really cares about the average person. The only one willing to do something for those that are working hard, but are not able to make ends meet...Rick Wilson, where is your caring for the people that you are manipulating?
Douglas, you just made a claim against Warren without ANY EVIDENCE, AND CONTRARY TO EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT HER. Bernie HAD been my #2, but his supporters' abusive and unsubstantiated remarks are now pushing me towards Amy for #2 slot. I may go all the way to the state convention again, and I will remember that Presidents choose administration staff like their followers, which tells me that Sanders' could never establish common ground with other Dems, let alone Republicans. Dems ALL lose when we form a circular firing squad.
@irish inNY I agree when it comes to Nancy, who has been instrumental in corrupting Washington by building the donor system, but Adam Schiff is just formidable compared to most congressmen and senators. That's just the type for a future president, he's just necessary.
I agree with you on so much. Why is it when I bring up your name Mr. Wilson, do people call you a criminal, investigating a criminal? What crime are you being accused of, or did you commit?
I'm so weary of delayed justice. How can the GOP be as cynical as they are today? Democrats always listen and try to compromise. Not so with the GOP. Our system is broken. I wish we could wipe away political parties. I am so weary of the competition and duality. It is way past time to end the electoral college. So sick of single issue voting too.
I think what you're sick of is republicans. That's who had turned our system into a cynical, zero sum game they "win" by unethical means, for whom winning and power are the only goals. Democrats, thank God, are still a real political party, with an ethos, with policies, who take government seriously, who "always listen and try to compromise". Fortunately, we _can_ sweep away the political party causing the problem. We can drown the republican party, its members and its awful philosophy, in a blue wave in November. It will take a few more election cycles to scour them out of our system entirely but it can be done. Virginia is now 100 percent repub free. Once we do that, even before it's done, we can get back to making life better for everybody. Politics is not a game, it's how we run our public lives.
That is your warped perspective of reality. Democrats are not the "Doves" as they used to be seen as. If you actually knew and understood what is going on then you would see that the Republicans are the party of compromise, because they are almost without principles except for a few key social issues. The Democrat Party is now a party of racial identity. In reality, their policymaking is barely different from the Republicans. The difference is what they do to "win" their bases. Republicans know that their party is corrupt too, it's just that they hope Trump will at least help with some of it. There is almost nothing that Democrats are offering that will be good for the USA as a whole. The Democrats need to completely reform themselves because as it stands now, them winning the Presidency will be one of the most dangerous things that can happen this decade.
Electoral college IS YOUR DEFENSE against cheating. That is why Dems hate it so much along with Voter ID, and illegal mail-in-voting in place of legal absentee ballots.
Here's my problem with combining public and private health care. The private insurance companies will either not accept sick and old people, or else they will raise the price of coverage for them. These people will then be driven to the public health care. The public health care will then have problems sustaining itself because it gets all the sick people. The private insurance companies will then say, "See? Publicly funded health care doesn't work. Government doesn't know how to do it." I don't hear candidates like Sanders and Warren point this out and I don't know why. But there must be some reason. Also, if there are both public and private payers, are candidates saying people would get a tax break if they choose a private insurance company? Or do they still have to pay the same taxes? As far as I know, people who choose to send their kid to a private school generally pay the same taxes.
@@SolidAir54321 Your right. The combined system will fall apart when people realize their private insurance won't give them everything they need while paying extra for those that have higher bills. But people don't want to give up their private insurance have to we must accommodate that. Meanwhile, conservatives will do everything in their power to see that the pub. sys. fails. No easy solutions. But we must have universal healthcare.
@@maudieicrochet9491 but isnt it goverment intervention that caused insurance company to such rates. its as though there are no other solutions. for one thing that could be done is allow the consumer to buy insurance across state lines coperatives is another. and i am sure there are others. but they dont want to talk about it. because there is an agenda . all the problems that i see its almost always goverment intervention causes alot of these problems
@@mssouth1964 You're blaming the government for corporate greed? Which is usually why the government intervenes in the first place. All people must be covered for what they need without straining family resources. I've worked in healthcare for over 30 years and I've seen damage done. I hope there will be a solution that allows people to keep their private insurance if they choose. But no double dipping. Thanks for your polite post and for exploring other ideas.
@@maudieicrochet9491 the horror stories of the va hospitals ive heard about for 40 to 50 years in my life time. that was an example of goverment run system . and your thinking or beleiving they can run a whole nations healhcare efficiently. you see the price of simple bolts and nuts that they cost for military hundreds of dollars for just a nut. there is only two ways to allocate resources. priceing meaning the free market or rationing . there is no third option. and never has been. it is almost imposible to hold these govermental officials accountable now . much less if they were given national healthcare
You say it doesn't matter if it's not true, as long as people believe it. You're telling me two things here Rick. ONE: Voters are stupid. Not unintelligent mind you - intelligent people can do stupid things. TWO: You're responsible. This voter manipulation science of yours is what got us here.
He's absolutely right, as a Democrat it has long frustrated me that we can't seem to grasp that winning an election and exercising policy are two different things. Simply put you can't govern and implement policy if you don't win. Win first, by what ever means necessary, and then implement policy.
Christy Santiago Oh dear god, please start getting more reality based, fast. Bernie would lose us everything, including the House and senate. I understand people like Bernie but can’t you look at the facts?
As I listen to Mr. Wilson, speaking only three weeks ago, I can't help but feel that he's driven more by the benefit he derives from the shit storm America's experiencing than by any genuine commitment to change. I might be wrong.
One year later - Trump is gone, and he helped helm one of the most important swords in a brand new political coalition ... and is still providing serious insight we need and good dose of dark-humor we most certainly need.
Yeah, Douglas I don't think you understood what Rick was saying and he wasn't benefiting from "Hair Furher Trump's" Fascist/Authoritarian Crap storm, because the only sort of people benefiting from it were people like Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller both which are "Alt-Right" which is another name for Fascists and people like the Charlottesville White Supremacists and Neo Nazi's, Vanguard America, Aryan Nation, the Klan, The Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and the Patriot Front and perhaps you weren't paying attention, considering that The Lincoln Project went after Trump and Endorsed Biden and the Democrats and if Faux Entertainment hadn't used footage of Barcelona in Spain to exaggerate the Violent parts of the Civil Rights protests last year 97% of which were completely peaceful and the other 3% had White Supremacists, Professional Agitators and Trump Supporters Inciting the Violence and looting and exaggeration and fortunately the Washington Post covered the Investigations into the Violent part protests and if they hadn't been blown out of all proportion maybe the Democrats would be looking at a larger majority in both the House and the Senate now
I’ve seen this guy a hundred times on Bill Maher and never really got what he was about. That has changed quite significantly just by watching debates like these and I’ve even bought his book! 15 minutes before posting this! True! So much experience and common sense it’s scary. Last time I was this impressed with anyone to do with democratic politics (Apart from Sir Bill Maher that is), is never. Ok, not quite true. Andrew Cuomo in 2012 because I was in New York when hurricane Katrina hit and he absolutely smashed the recovery effort. And Obama! That’s a given though right? 😊
Rick talking about the voter files is why party registration is so terrible. Australia has no only Sat. voting, paper ballots and one off registration.
His mother knew that her spawn of thge devil was rotten to the core. Dump trump and the gop. Antubody but trump. Hes a cancerous lesion on america s a rd s hole.
It’s obscene and insane to have recently watched and read stories from two or three years ago to just a few weeks ago. And they were freaking out about what a Trump had done by that time, and it pales compared to what he has done recently. Scary stuff.
When he called Bernie a commie, it shows me who Rick is. He is still a damn Republican. My husband is union, he says take his plan because with Trump, the unions will lose their plans anyway.
