As a country, we cannot forgive and forget. We simply cannot move on to "heal the country". I will forever hold the idea that that is the single worse mistake Gerald Ford made when he assumed the reins from a disgraced Nixon. Never again. The Felon, his cabinet appointments, the "advisors", Congressional elected officials, Senators....down to every ICE agent must be held accountable, must face severe conseques.
Agree, Claudia. But we should remember that Ford became president in different times and in a different political climate. There were patriotic Republicans back then. And Nixon was capable of shame.
Thanks, Steven: It just goes to show one thing: the type of people who run for politics- not all, but the majority. They have got a lot to say when running and sucking up to the dark money lenders; then, when they get their particular seat, they suck up to whoever is in control. These particular folks that quietly rant about a pathetic president in the White House and watch him destroy our allies and the economy, sit quietly and whisper into the ears of the media not to be exposed, really pisses me off. They are all rats and should be sent packing, all of them. Susan Collins, who is alleged to be accepting dark money and selling contracts, needs to be addressed. Ken Paxton, with his love affairs and other problems, claims to be a man of family values and law and order. Yes, a prime example of a man with no decency. No wonder folks don't partake on elections. They would rather sit at home and complain because they know the politicians will do nothing beneficial for them. Yes, Steven, Florida GOP Rep. María Elvira Salazar, the rep who voted to fund the ICE Gestapo and now complains because they are shipping out her voters, and Mike Rogers, the war horse turned pony. What a couple of turncoats. These types of actions should end anyone's dinner at the hog trough. Vote Blue all the way and ease this nightmare.
Yes, they are talking the opposite of how they are voting. Even in the same week. Surely you didn’t mean Florida allows non-citizens to vote. Salazar complains because her voters are angry over their neighbors and workers being shipped out — including Cubans being sent to Africa — and could lose her election.
Drumpf initially gave her a pass but I read yesterday that he went on posting rampage. He may view her ad differently now; as breaking the dam for others to try to distance themselves from him.
I am praying that not only we win BOTH houses of Congress, but that Trump has not masterminded some other devious plan to thwart the election results if we do win. I am terrified that he will. As I see it, we’re damned if we flood the zone and win hands-down, because he will pretend that we couldn’t have won by such numbers, that there had to be cheating or fraud. This is what worries me most. If we do not win by large margins, he will do the same. He may claim “foreign interference” or some such rot. This is what keeps me up at night…the very idea that our own government could interfere in our election process, our most fundamental and sacred rite.
Where will these fleeing rats be then? Will they stand by the notion of free and fair elections, or will they be in accord with Trump’s authoritarianism which rips and tears at the fabric of our democracy on a daily basis? I keep thinking how short a walk it is from the Senate to the White House, where Trump could be and could have been confronted and stopped from carrying out the planned murder of our republic. I keep thinking how easy it could have been for our elected representatives to actually represent us by standing on the side of democracy. But, alas…
You do realize that these republicans all lie to get elected, right? IF they win, they will most definitely flip to what this human (and I use that word loosely) wants them to do and how to vote. VOTE BLUE!!!!
Add my congressperson to the list: Jeff Hurd CO-3. Radio ads earlier in the year highlighted his support for President Trump’s policies. TV ads now are vague hand-waving on rural health care and holding insurance companies accountable.
I am doubting any sincere conversions. These people will say or do anything to get elected or re-elected. And, if they are so lucky, will realign with the regime. Or, to everyone's point, they will work to undermine the election if they lose. They have given us no reason to trust them. Sorry - I wish I were less cynical.
Our voters need to look ahead for prosperity of our nation. The laws of our nation should stand high for all equally. The criminal regime should be held accountable along with congressional members who stood by and did nothing.
Those rats who aren't fleeing the Trump sinking ship are drowning in their own stupidity. I highly doubt their change of mind will "right the ship" - it's already capsized and gone to the bottom of the "reflecting pool". Reflecting pretty badly on the remainder.
Yes, it’s too little, too late for the rats. For the rats that go down with the ship, I’ve lost faith in the system to give them criminal justice, but may they at least be voted out!

Agreed, Claudia.

Thanks Ann. Her lose will be a gain.

All election deniers are irredeemable.

Understandable.
We need to be very clear, “Rats” fleeing the ship are still “Rats”.
Our voters need to look ahead for prosperity of our nation. The laws of our nation should stand high for all equally. The criminal regime should be held accountable along with congressional members who stood by and did nothing.
R’ s will say anything to win. Ethics doesn’t matter to them.
WHEN we win, we need a Speaker of the House who will fight for accountability and justice

Yes rats are fleeing…
What is truly troubling is it took so long for them to realize the poison Trump is! Or care?
They stuck to his shoes repeating his lies professing publicly they love him (Donaldson) and happily accepted his cruelty causing great great harm;
Death and destruction.
Children killed in schools
No they shall not be forgotten
They are guilty of harboring pedophile monsters.
No they shall not be forgiven
We must swarm to vote
💙🇺🇸💙

“I can’t count how many times I’ve heard that many Republicans oppose Donald Trump,”
Probably as often as members of the Nazi party denied they ever heard the word once the allies arrived.
Rats fleeing a sinking ship often end up drowning. I suspect a lot of drowned rats washing up on shore.
