Now tTHERE'S an idea!

I was going to suggest Puerto Rico but Hawaii is better, although if it was in Puerto Rico, that might jumpstart the campaign to make Puerto Rico a state. Throw in Washington DC, as many have suggested, and you have not one but TWO new states that are probably a lock for Democrats. That would increase our majority in the Senate - and we can always use more Dems in the Senate.

More Dems in any governmental vehicle is ALWAYS a good idea.

Just a guess, but it wouldn't surprise me to see his numbers continue to rise.

Even if just a little.

But up from 58 to 71 per cent? That’s good!

I just wish there could be MORE PROMOTION of all his accomplishments. My dad, who was a successful salesman, had a favorite saying:

“Late to bed
Early to rise
Work like hell
And ADVERTISE!”

He had that plaqued and hung it on the wall in his office. Sure made sense to me!

And my mom had her own version:

“If you don’t toot your own horn, nobody’s gonna toot it for you!”

And that, too, made a lot of sense!

It’s simple, and I hope Biden and his people AND the Dems in general from coast to coast get this: It won’t matter how much good you’ve done if nobody knows about it, or if nobody’s heard about it!

I find myself wondering if Disney could move all its Florida operations to New Jersey?

Or Pennsylvania? Or some other blue state?

Gee, Ron, you just drove all those jobs out-of-state for WHAT reason? Out of spite? Just to show ‘em who’s boss? If the Disney folks did that, THEY’D be showing YOU who’s boss. I’m sure there are other states that would be thrilled to get that potential revenue stream.

She better think twice about this messaging.

She’s actually including blue states in that map.

But since they’re not actually COLORED blue, maybe the poor dear just didn’t realize it…

"... confided further to multiple girlfriends"?

“Multiple girlfriends”? What is he? Some self-anointed Casanova or something?

And who’s be stupid enough to date this jerk?

March 1, 2023

Cool!

Looks like turkey tail trails!

We should be banging the drum on this, NONSTOP.

Now is not the time to be nice.

Think of it this way: are THEY being nice about how and what they’re doing - against Democrats and anybody who isn’t super wealthy?

March 1, 2023

Ouch!

Good point, though.

March 1, 2023

I like that one!

It certainly explains the mess we’re in.

Count me among the gravely disappointed.

The evidence is ALL THERE, Merrick. WTF are you waiting for? It’s been TWO YEARS! SURELY by now you’ve found enough reason to prosecute. What gives? Afraid he’s gonna yell at you or something?
