I notice not one definitive plan of action today.

This is not rocket science....

Locking up Comey, Lynch, Hillary, Strozak, Ohr and possibly Rosenstein for corruptly using the levers of government to spy on American citizens illegally for political purposes. The FBI will think twice next time before joining in the conspiracy to fix an election of a President illegally.

Do you know we are all spied on all the time with our cell phones and texts. This is how they catch terrorists. There are certain words they listen for. None the less we are all spied on.

Don't worry, maybe things will pick up next week. Or perhaps more people will see extra in their paychecks? The stock market could hit a new record. Or maybe the UE rate will hit the lowest marks in 30 years, instead of 20. Or maybe wages continue to increase. Wouldn't that be terrible?

It's telling when American liberals are wishing for misery for American citizens, rejoice in failure and complain when America wins.

Oh, maybe next week will be when Trump will deliver on amnesty for those 1.8 million illegals that he talked about. That ought to have Dems utterly confused as to how to react.
You do realize that the positive economic trends you reference have been underway for quite a while, right? That they aren't the result if some radical turnaround in the economy when Trump got elected, right?

Good. I'm glad for you and that you're doing well, mostly due to your own efforts as well I would imagine.

You sound like me during the Obama Administration. I survived the 8 years pretty well despite the...
Despite the....?

Okay...wanna be cute, huh?

Alright. I know what it is.

It's going to be a 'bad patch' for the Democrats. Poor things.

Yes, yes, yes! I want to see democrats being critical of deficit spending..... Demanding fiscal responsibility!! We must balance the budget.....


The shocking truth, money doesn't grow on trees, It grows in other peoples pockets!

Where was all this righteous indignation when the deficit soared over the last presidency?

Said Kennedy drools over himself while speaking and no one remembers what he was talking about. #droolgate trends

Well-they remember "You build a wall, we'll tear it down"...and the next day the photos of his walled mansion are all over Facebook

Democratic senators and congressmen are hit with a massive case of constipation at the SOTU, and Pelosi strokes out

Wage report shows positive increase

MSM is forced to report that 75% of those polled rated the SOTU positively

People are starting to see the Trump bonus in their paychecks (tax cut)

Memo comes out that reveals that anti-Trump leadership with the FBI (probably) broke laws to get an unlawful wiretap on the Trump campaign-verifying what Trump said about wiretaps a year ago.

CNN, MSNBC and NPR talking heads melt down into a puddle


It really has to get tiring being wrong ALL THE TIME.

Sad really, that the "party of the working class" has abandoned the working class in favor of a far-left war on sanity and the middle class.

It really does have to be a rough week for them.
Its good to be positive. Some people can look at a turd and say "Look, corn! yumm!"

It's been a pretty darn good week for Democrats.

Hard to beat a week where Trump declassifies national security information to make a fool of himself, and Republicans officially switch their position from supporting the FBI and opposing Russia to opposing the FBI and supporting Russia.

Republicans abandoned their "fiscal responsible" motto to pass their payday loan tax scam and word came out Wednesday from the Congressional Budget Office that due to the tax giveaways, we will hit the debt limit a month earlier than previously expected.

If Congress doesn't raise the debt ceiling the first part of March, we'll run out of money to pay the bills.
