Keep in mind that lots of his supporters love the "fireworks"....did they announce the tweet during the proceedings?
Right now, there's no Democrat who has a chance....is there?
Anyway, getting ready to put in some bricks? We're meeting up with another possible foster tomorrow...;)

The problem is his supporters are not going to reelect him it's the middle of the roaders and moderates that he must have. That is how he beat Hilary but the left is on to that tactic and won't make the same mistake again.
We don't know who his challenger will be it more than likely won't be any running now they are all way too far left for middle America.

It's going to be another "Never Hillary" election...just fill in whoever gets the nod...
People aren't concerned by this impeachment nonsense...this is a very political, left leaning town...the neighborhood pages are full of important things....

When we bought the house many moons ago, the family room was and addition. It started as a pool room. There was no insulation in the walls just cinder block furring strips and paneling. It was the hottest and coldest room in the house. I poured a cement slab to put a wood burning stove on. Worked great, then I decided to remodel tore out all the paneling and ceiling. Replaced with real oak paneling I insulated the walls using 3/4 inch Styrofoam sheets. and put in a gas burning fire place. To cover the exposed cement slab hearth, I used thin paver bricks. Really looked nice but over the years with grand babies and people dropping things on it the pavers got broke or came loose etc. well the new doesn't match the old so we are replacing the paver brick.

Trump hasn't done much of anything to attract moderates and undecideds. His LoveMeLongTime rallies pander to the most rabid of the radical far right. There are a number of bipartisan-supported bills stalled in the Senate because McConnell is blocking them. A word or two from the "best negotiator ever" could get them rolling again and give Trump something truthful to crow about as far as accomplishments. Dismantling Obama era things is not it. Rolling back environmental protections and opening national parks and lands to commercial interests are very unpopular ideas out here. Whoever gets the (D) nomination will be hammering on that to his detriment.

It sounds like a room with a lot of memories. Did you do all that work yourself? How did you learn how to do it?

People are quite concerned about the impeachment.... esp. certain orange-tinted ones in DC, and his followers. lol

The (D)s have a good field of candidates this time, not a single one as unlikable as Hillary. And as early polling consistently shows, at this point in time any one of them has more support than the Toadstool.

I don't see a candidate that gets my juices going yet.But I'm not a Democrat.

Which of that good field do you think can defeat Trump?

Biden and Warren both have a very good chance. I like Bernie but between his age, recent health scare, and out-of-the-mainstream ideas I don't think he would do as well.

At this early point, I think the polls that show every single (D) candidate beating Twittler is more a reflection on how disliked he is, rather than a measure of how liked they are.

Your thoughts?

"Biden is like having a flashlight with a dying battery, and going for a long hike in the woods." - Joe Rogan.

Since Trump was elected, people have been running around with their hair on fire. As I have been saying all along, "We hate Trump" is no substitute for having a viable platform. Tulsi Gabbard could defeat Trump, but won't get the chance.

I don't think anyone can guess what the next year holds.
