Thanks anyway. He was simply retaliating. For the record, my husband calls me just about every day around lunch time. Today, to see if I sent off his gun club fee so he won't miss going to the range. I suspect he is going to show off for our Christmas guests. He loves his arsenal.

I hadn't thought about that aspect. You are right, we hope they strike this down. She reminds me of a barbie doll that someone is standing behind and pulling a string.

The media pushed out the other candidates. Case in point, Megyn Kelly hitting Ted Cruz on illegal immigration, later admitting that he had a consistent record all along. This she did AFTER the debate and only during the post debate interview - when the majority of the viewers had tuned out. That was done deliberately, because like Esaias, they honed in on the video showing how Ted Cruz was working to kill the bill and using it, dishonestly, as a sound bite to prove he was for illegal immigration. They knew that video alone would work against his credibility and so they pushed it for all it was worth. At that point, not even Jeff Sessions, coming to his defense, could save him. Yea, like that kind of stuff.

Don't talk to me about a phenomenon when the man lied his tail off, working hard to ruin the character of whoever stood in his way. It is no wonder that Time has Trump as Person of the Year for 2016, depicting him sitting in the Corleone leather chair.

Yes, I could have my own show because I called it months ago - the Corleone family is going to the White House - the whole family.

I never cared for Mitt Romney, but I am glad that he refused to apologize to Trump causing him to lose the SOS position. Good on him! Deacon would be proud!

And finally, I don't want the Trump Administration to fail. I also am not worrying about it because I didn't vote for him.

And the hole gets even deeper.

I remember the last time conservatives put hope in SCOTUS to strike something down. Remind me, what happened with that?

Perhaps instead of hoping SCOTUS strikes something down, it'd be better NOT to have it pushed by a fauxservative POTUS and passed by a GOPe controlled Congress.

Federal mandated paternity leave, women's wage and climate change shouldn't even be considered by this admin or GOP Congress.

Both the Executive and Legislative branches are going to push the "necessary and proper" clause beyond its limit. You want that changed? Promote a convention of the States.

And you ignore the issue.

Instead of having wacko liberal bills like climate change, federal mandated paternity leave and the bogus pay discrepancy either defeated by Congress or the SCOTUS.... don't elect a fake conservative as POTUS.

He can't. He won't. It's easier to be dismissive and post insults.
