Is it just me, or does it feel like the country has been brought back to life?

[Norbert9]

America has a pulse! We won't stand for this. Patriots will speak up.

This is the best I've felt in months.

1. With the resignation of Flynn...

it does seem like a relieve valve was activated.

[Ligyron]

2. It does look like we have a chance.

But, if this country doesn't throw out the GOP by 2020, I'm outa here.

[Norbert9]

3. Ditto, if not 2018

[Ligyron]

6. Yeah, if I don't see significant progress in 2018

Imma start packing because either they will have totally gamed that election too or my countrymen really are that stupid.

But I'll give it until the results of the 2020 to pull the trigger. And I'll fight like hell to stop the madness until then.

The United States of America - a great idea while it lasted.

[lame54]

11. Yes...

2018 is the test

The right owns the midterms

That needs to change

[tavernier]

4. That's why McConnell et al

keep swinging their pocket watches in front of the cameras saying, "you are getting sleepy..."

[dchill]

5. Still on life support...

But at least returned from comatose to semiconsciousness.

[get the red out]

10. The respirator

might be ready to be removed.

[DinahMoeHum]

7. Not yet, IMO. But the first scalp is on the wall (Flynn)

The 2017 and 2018 elections will be the real tests.

[Mister Ed]

8. It's not just you. I'm feeling it all around me.

It's almost time for the American Spring.

[roamer65]

9. Our constitutional republic is not going down without a fight.

Let's make the founding fathers proud, folks.

[StubbornThings]

12. No. The country still has their head up it's ass. nt

[Cosmocat]

13. YEP

[Cosmocat]

14. as others noted - there is a pulse, but is mostly us - 1/3 of the country

WE are the ones who are on fire, but we voted against the party of trump and have for years.

But, we are only 1/3 of the country.

1/3 are completely stuck in stupid republicans who won't budge an inch regardless of how bad the party of trump drives us over a cliff.

The problem is "middle" 1/3 that increasingly has fallen prey to the appeal of right wing hatred or at the very least the poison of "they are all the same ..."

The middle is still on the sidelines ... They may know Trump is a POS, but they still are not even close to holding his party responsible.

[C_U_L8R]

15. I can see light out the other side.

But believe me Trump isn't going down without a fight.

[Dream Girl]

16. That is the crux of the matter. He will flail and bring them down too

That's why they are scared shitless to investigate. Once that horse leaves the barn all bets are off.

[C_U_L8R]

17. It's certainly gonna be messy

The GOP is totally fucked no matter what happens
