1. That image, reminds me of a cable show, [stupid imo], where

they are always taking a sledge hammer or ax? to dry wall's in houses to be renovated.

2. Bloomberg needs to create short ad that runs continuously stating though Trump promised....

this is what he now says he will do (and show the video clip). Then underscore the 1% tax cut and show the graphic of where the national debt has landed since Obama left and now because of the wealthy tax cut that he now wants YOU to bear. It needs to run multiple times throughout the day on Fox and all the networks, especially in all the battleground states.

4. Run it during The Price is Right and Matlock so the seniors can see it.

Family Feud is option #3.

[wnylib]

11. Yuk. I always hated Family Feud.

A program that encouraged lowest denominator conformity in order to reach the "right" answer.

Even worse, I could not stand the emcee, whose name I don't remember. He was alwsys demanding a kiss from female contestants and pressuring reluctant ones to give in. Gave me the creeps. I'd never let a child be alone with him.

[CaptYossarian]

14. It was Richard Dawson.

He said he started that when he noticed a lady was nervous to the point where she couldn't speak. Then it became a custom.

[wnylib]

16. Custom, my foot. The nervous

contestant explanation does not account for his pushy insistence with reluctant women. The only thing making them nervous was Dawson himself. Or Paws-son.

[CaptYossarian]

17. I only repeated what he said in an interview.

The #MeToo movement has us all thinking now, but not so much then.

[wnylib]

18. I'm responding to what he said.'

I thought and felt that way about him long before me too.

[CaptYossarian]

20. I must be naive and sheltered.

Everything since Cosby has opened my eyes a lot more.

[wnylib]

21. i think that's true for a lot of people.

But "me too" did not come out of nowhere. It came from women of all ages, places, and backgrounds who had held things in until society was able to listen. Many of us had been in or witnessed uncomfortable situations that, in the past, we were expected to laugh off and go along with in order to not "make waves." if you did make waves, there was retaliation.

Women felt uncomfortable, and worse, depending on experiences, but the attitude then was, "We don't talk about such things."

Look at how some people today still claim that women who make accusations are just looking for attention, or seeking money, or just want to destroy someone they don't like. Consider Dr Ford and the Kavanaugh hearing. Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill.

But, just because women were often silent for self-protection, does not mean we did not recognize people whose behavior made us uncomfortable. In fact, it was wise to recognize them in order to avoid them.

[CaptYossarian]

22. I fully agree with every word in your post.

Even today, there are those who think sexual abuse/rape is a sexual crime. It's all really about power and victimization of someone deemed as a "lesser". Not only against women, but when children are abused as well.

It seems there are two types of abusers here. Ones who already have power and status (Weinstein/Trump) and want to keep it that way--and ones with low self-esteem who want to gain power over an individual (a typical rapist).

There's no love, no kissing or romance--only the violent act and humiliation.

[wnylib]

23. Yes, rape and harrassment are

based on power and insecurity, not sex or romance.

3. The FDR giveth and the f*cker taketh away.

Does he think every American was born with a silver spoon up their ass?

Screw the Senate!

[kacekwl]

5. I agree with these ideas. Run the ads so the target audience

sees this message as much as ads for walk in tubs and Medicare supplement plans. How can we loose ?

[NewJeffCT]

6. and, Dems can tailor it locally, if needed

Trump says he will cut your social security and Medicare if re-elected.

Joni Ernst (or Thom Tillis, or Cory Gardner or Moscow Mitch, etc) says that they will protect both, but she (or he) voted with Trump 95% of the time. Do you really think she (he) will side with you or with Trump?

[wnylib]

12. It's good to have Bloomberg

creating and running ads. But we can do some of our own, too, right? And why wait for ads when our leaders can speak up publicly for us?

Besides, can he succeed in SS cuts without the approval of Congress? The Dem House would never vote for it.

[Fritz Walter]

7. That one's scary enough

But I remember seeing a doctored image of the "come and play with us, Dannie!" twins from the Shining, where the faces of Beevis and Butthead (Eric and Junior) were superimposed over the two girls' heads. That one is truly frightening!

[calimary]

8. So will we, donald.

So will we.

[not fooled]

10. He really is dumb

GOPee knows you're not supposed to say it.

I hope all of the idiot seniors who support this moron are aware of his plans, as they think about how they will vote in November. Of course, GOPee has been harming seniors for decades and yet still get their votes, so I'm not optimistic.

[Initech]

13. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's DONNY!

[Number9Dream]

15. They ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS - SS & Medicare from payroll deductions!

Why does the media go along with the Republicans, and call SS & Medicare entitlements???

Stop calling them entitlements!

24. K&R

[Frustratedlady]

26. He probably won't have to cut Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid...

Since we don't have sufficient test kits and/or care protocols, enough of us will die off from the virus and save the country all that money they are bitching about wasting on us.
