We are on the precipice of a Civil War and, if we are not careful, the degradation of the very fabric of our republic
Not long ago, an old friend texted me her thoughts on President Trump. She felt that he should immediately be impeached for the following reasons: he was a dictator, he colluded with Russia, that he tampered with the FBI investigation, he has practiced gross misconduct and that he is a “dumba”. Furthermore, Obama put stuff in place during his administration for the good of our country and now we are spending tax dollars undoing these things, which proves President Trump thinks it’s his country not everyone else’s. Finally she felt Trump is grossly inappropriate, short tempered, off the wall, unrealistic, unreliable, untruthful, uncouth, a big baby, racist and stupid. She felt that if only I would watch “The Real News” (ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Headline News, MSNBC, etc.), I would know the “truth”.
Never enter a debate/argument with a fool. After a couple minutes nobody can tell you apart.
(from my Linux computer, Cinnamon Mint 17.2, what a wonderful OS)
But then I read the second paragraph and laughed me arse off. Best chuckle I've had all day.
Eventually, they could stumble into the truth.
(Or get mugged).
Ok. I’ve read his piece. I agree with his thesis.
She left out Trump is a poopyhead.
That “old friend” provides strong support for the idea that women’s suffrage was a mistake.
There are no male flibbertigibbets.
‘he is a “dumba”.’
I looked this word up. Matt Dumba gets a lot of hits; he’s a Canadian ice hockey defenseman.
The other major usage is:
Define dumba: a fat-tailed sheep of Bokhara and the Kyrgyz steppe.
Not sure what the woman was trying to say; it doesn’t appear to be an insult. Maybe a fat-tailed hockey player?
It’s beyond amazing how shallow the thinking can get among these types. But it can, and it does.
Trump is being made to pay for all of the stupid and mean-spirited things the Koch’s and others have pushed over the years. It makes no sense because Trump is the sort of Republican that these numbnuts have spent decades chasing out of the Republican party, but that seems to be what is happening anyway.
One thing that is legitimate fire is the idea that men should be able to opt out of maternity coverage, which will have the effect of probably raising costs on women alone. Everybody breathing has been part of this process, as a baby and hopefully as a parent. It is needed for the continuance of humankind. Everyone should bear the cost.
The Left is trying to make it look like the GOP hates women, and they exaggerate and often outright lie to make their point. I therefore would ask that the Republicans not make the job easier because of stupid policy positions. Especially at the behest of the cheap labor express, which appears to want domestic birthrates to fall.
If you want to pursue this, read YOU ARE STILL CRYING WOLF (About Trump “Racism”) and then tease your quarry with the antiTrump parts, then get them to read the whole thing.
“flibbertigibbets”
LOL...that sent me scurrying for Funk & Wagnalls! That is the perfect description.
How did you come up with that word?
Maybe it was truncated and the “ss” was left off out of politeness.
“How did you come up with that word?”

My mother used that word——and I’m 84.

Nice! Moms are always good teachers. How cool it’s stuck with you all the years.
This attitude has been molded for a while now. Government schools staffed by government employees whose livelihoods depend on bigger and more intrusive government, inculcate the little minds with positive thoughts about being taken care of for life, by a benevolent government. When the adult students are confronted by somebody who has no use for government, the only response is incredulity and anger. As a businessman bent on getting government out of the way, DJT is the embodiment of the enemy of America’s locust class.
