Democrats are by no means blameless, but they do believe in a government run by educated professionals who aspire to be the best in their respective fields. The previous two Republican administrations have been notoriously staffed by cronies, many woefully unqualified, and as bad as the Bush administration was, it covered up its cronyism like establishment Republicans have perfected the process. The Trump Administration is blatant and uninterested in appearances, with his family immediately occupying key posts, and his appointments to his inner circle being the people he watches on Fox News.

We still have three more years to feel the pain of this boil, and it likely will not be lanced until 2020. What platform will Republicans adopt after the religious absolutism of the war mongering neoconservatives under Bush, and now the blatant corruption and endless cycle of polarizing attacks on democracy under Trump?

I predict a rebirth of the Republican party, one that understands that a theocratic approach to governing appeals to a shrinking number of Americans, and a dog whistle "Make America Great Again" platform of not so veiled racism won't work either, because America becomes less white every day. We have seen how cowardly Republicans are to stand up to Trump. but some have shown backbone. One knows his days are numbered on this earth and has stood up, while two others have abandoned their seats, and are content to stand up as they are walking away from the fight.

I look forward to the rebadged Republican Party, one that is more inclusive and less ideological.
Let's Trump's attacks on the corrupt, deep bureaucratic state continue.
Democrats are by no means blameless you say. I say that the democratic party is living in fantasy land with their coddling of illegal immigrants and embrace of the deep state and socialism.

This thread is a prime example of the propaganda, and repulsive delusions that will continue to be spread by Hannity, Jones, Bannon, Nunes, Trump, Putin, and the rest of the Right Wing-Republican-Russian crowd.
Same old B.S.!

Hannity, through his guests (and, I presume, some on his staff) has been doing the job most journalists today refuse to do. They have exposed the truth of the conspiracy (yes, I said it, "conspiracy") to stop Donald Trump from ever becoming the Republican nominee for President, and then when that failed, the conspiracy to see that he was never elected. None of what they have reported is "propaganda," but it is well sourced intelligence gathered through hard work and diligence, and all information presented has been corroborated by the very text messages sent between those involved. They have hoised themselves on their own petards.

These people were FBI, CIA, and DOJ employees who were conspiring to ensure Hillary Clinton was the next President of the United States. Of this, there is no doubt. We have the facts. And none of these people you mentioned above have any ties to Russia, have not worked with Putin, nor "colluded" in any way. In fact, we know it was Hillary, working with the Russians, and Christopher Steele, who paid for the phony "dossier" in an effort to destroy Trump.

No matter how often you repeat your lies, it will not change these facts.

You "talking points," which I suspect come from Obama's organization, OFA, which is behind "The Resistance" movement, of which you are part, are lies, distortions, and false information ...the very definition of "propaganda."

Stop it! Just STOP IT! It's getting very old.

Then maybe we can take our next evolutionary step as a species.
Tribalism?

WOW! Trump derangement syndrome meltdown! And so early in the day, too. I suggest you go lay down with a cool cloth over your eyes. And - cheer up! Trump should be gone in another two years or so, possibly sooner. Hang in there!
