Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Same strategy I have been employing for the past ten years since this horrific nightmare began. Music I am enjoying today:

The GOP chairman of the Randall County Republican Party (in the Panhandle, it includes southern Amarillo and Canyon) just got indicted for voter fraud as well, and this isn’t going to help them either.

This is reminiscent to what NumbNuts did in Atlantic City “if I build two more casinos, I will make three times the money”. Without of course considering the limited customer base . . .

In Texas’ already Gerrymandered districts that were about 53%, spread the percentages downward in more districts, then throw in terrible policies and he just might have single-handedly turned Texas blue!

They don’t call him NumbNuts for nothing 🤣

What Makes Cheeto So Disgusting?

Cheeto’s incessant lying and making statements that we all know to be untrue is not only annoying but shows how morally bankrupt this weasel is And those in his cabinet who shower him with accolades and lie as much as he does become as despicable as he is MSM(mainstream media)needs to begin calling Cheeto and his Nazi allies out as liars and not pretend

But this is consistent with his battle with science RFK Jr and Cheeto share one thing in common Any societal institution that seeks the truth should be eliminated and not trusted

The erosion and complete loss of trust in what someone says undermines any confidence that the public has in any direction he may want to take the country Cheeto in his lying is just trying to foster a reality he wants to see happen but that reality is always nonexistent It’s only in Cheeto’s mind and nowhere else It’s just his own reality TV show and a form of propaganda

His now fast and furious lying has become even more egregious and hyperbolic Call it out for what it is, a disgusting behavior meant to propagandize but that fools no one except MAGA followers

The problem with polls is that they are skewed to what you want to see as a result. Think about it. How many of you receive a poll on what you just bought, on your experience at the hospital, on your experience at your doctor's office or even lab work. ALL of those surveys are geared with "soft ball" questions and "soft ball" choices to get the answer they wanted out of you.

Secondly, polls are used to lift everybody's hope that the outcome they want to see in the next election will occur. BUT what one word is always paired with "hope"? It's "despair. Hope and despair are two words always paired together. Do you ever hear hope and success paired? NO!

So don't get your hopes up on polls. Remember the polls of 2016 and 2024? Did they bash your hope? You know they did! I hate to be the negative of this article but, somebody has to present reality to the "hopeful".

Thanks Sam. Numbers put a bit of positive hope out here after a week that I earlier today labeled Orwellian. Thanks for all you do. Take care.

What a tub of lard and all his Texas hootenannies. No matter what you do, you cannot dress up a bull or a hog. All apologies to Texans who have half a brain. If you were really smart, you wouldn’t live there. - a former resident.

If T* had any actual advisors or people who care about his “legacy” (I know 🙄), they would strongly advise him to ditch Stephen Miller and fast. They’re all awful people, but I do believe Miller is a bloodthirsty murderer. You’d think one or two in T’s cabinet would be a bit queasy.

Gerrymandering to, myself, is, wrong! Yes, I enjoyed the article. Poll numbers keep looking bad for this administration! Rick, and Andrew, be, safe, on your travels!

It’s still disappointing those percentages of people who continue to support this horrific regime.
