The Republicans who are getting "aroused" at the prospect of stealing the 2024 election for Trump

should understand this: there are many many of us who are determined not to "go gentle into that good night". Your ignorant stereotype of "wimpy" liberals is laughable.

Don't say you weren't warned.

Maybe this would be appropriate to send to "Republicans" who you can't believe support Trump.

Okay, you have been a Republican all your life, but haven't things changed quite a bit since you first decided the GOP most represented your views?

I have been a Democrat all my life and I recall a time when even though those in your party disagreed with my party, I never really doubted that they wanted what was best for our nation. Republicans of that time prided themselves on "personal responsibility", "law and order" and a morality that was based on religious faith. And while, like Democrats, your party had its share of liars and crooks, very few Republicans would actually defend any form of dishonesty.

Now, sadly, the majority of your party's leaders have abandoned the party I just described---the party you joined years ago. They now condone rank criminality, bald-faced lies and moral lapses that I am sure you find repulsive. As to what they believe, what they stand for and what they hope to achieve, the answer is as disgusting as it is simple: "Whatever Trump says."

I do not ask that you leave the Republican Party. I simply ask that you acknowledge that the Republican Party has left you and no longer deserves your support or your vote.

Think about it, OK?

Just an average citizen: "We are 'The People'! You work for us!"

Any average Republican politician: "HA-HA-HA-HA!"

The infant formula shortages are just one example of how we are ignoring conventional wisdom

by "putting all our eggs in one basket". Apparently, just four companies currently provide over 90% of America's formula. Accordingly, when any one supplier has a problem---like now---that saddles the entire nation with a major shortage of supply.

Big is not necessarily better and we may soon regret allowing the "Walmartization" of so many aspects of our economy. Not only does eliminating competition concentrate supply, it concentrates power which is consistently used to increase profit without regard to how the public is impacted.

I am obviously not an economist, but is it time to seriously discuss "breaking up" some of the corporate giants who set our prices, limit our choices and elect too many of their "friends"?

I have never watched Karine Jeane-Pierre handle a White House presser, but I know

she's doing a great job in her new position.

How do I know?

FOX is calling her "inarticulate" and "incoherent".

Here's something that investors who own Tesla stock or are considering buying some might

want to consider. Forget about the labor or racial discrimination issues for the moment. Just focus on hard-nosed business considerations.

Elon Musk, founder and CEO of Tesla, just publicly stated that he will "vote Republican" in the next election cycle.

Think about that.

Do YOU know who the Republican candidate will be?

Neither does he, yet---WHOEVER it may be---he has made a decision to vote for that person.

Does that sound like prudent decision-making?

Is that the sort of "shoot from the lip" management you want working with YOUR money?

Republicans: BP's profits are TRIPLE what they were at this time one year ago---up to 9.3

BILLION dollars---and you lying ignoramuses are blaming Joe Biden for high prices at the gas pump?

If having a bowel movement required brains, you guys would have to puke!

This is my opinion. It seems to be true from 70+ years of paying attention.

There is a too-large percentage of fuzzy thinking weak-minded individuals whose primary political "philosophy" is "go with the flow". They support a particular candidate for the same reason they support one of the teams in the Super Bowl: to be a part of "everybody".

" Everybody supports__________, so I will also".

The danger these folks pose to us is that a mindless "Me, too!" vote based on the media's casting counts just as much as a thoughtful well-considered vote based on knowledge of facts and policies.

Just as the media created the Barnette "surge" in Pennsylvania, it has created and continues to bolster the myth of Trump's invincibility and the value of his "endorsement". The impact of seeing and hearing this arrogant pathological liar again and again---STILL!---is enough to motivate the aforementioned fuzzy thinkers to go to the polls on election day in their red MAGA caps and be a part of "everybody".

And that, so the billionaire-funded plan predicts, will get the election "close enough to steal".

That's how I see it.

Does anyone have an accurate count? How many nazis won GOP primaries yesterday? nt

I do not have a pacemaker, but know a couple people who do. The device was implanted

(installed? ) in a brief surgical procedure and I believe they came home the same day. After a couple of routine follow-up exams, they were good to go and had few, if any, problems.

Unless Fetterman's situation is more complicated than I understand, getting a pacemaker should not have much effect on his candidacy.
