When liberals produce a good product, I buy it and don't deny myself....why should I especially when we control the House, Senate, Presidency, Supreme Court, and most of the states?

None of those institutions you name are under control at all. Are you sure you want to claim ownership of them?

Didn't say we "own" them, we control them at the moment and we are getting the best governance in our lives. But you bring up a good point, it would be better if we more fully controlled them....Dims, protest the corrupt electoral college system by refusing to vote in 2018!...power to the people!!

It's his money but IMO, time magazine is not what it once was. Personally I haven't picked up an issue in years.

Nobody reads Time anymore.

Remember that time that Trump faked his own Time cover and had them on display at his gold clubs?


He's the King of fake news.
