The Democrat Trumpworld fears most

[edpc]

Speaking of cold.... how stupid is my male cat?   So stupid that he has gone out in this 21 degree cold today.... has been out for about an hour so far.   Both cats went flying out of the door onto the patio earlier, but the female (smart one, that) came in after ten minutes...lol.  She likes her creature comforts like her human!

I had an indoor outdoor guy that I try to keep inside when it was cold, but he always insisted. Mostly, I think it was to get away from the other animals. He would be out on the coldest nights, but always came back fine the next day. I figured out his secret. He would cruise the neighborhood, looking for a house that was doing laundry. He always came home smelling like dryer sheets, after a frigid evening.

Well, I'm certainly glad you're not going around picking fights with me today.   

@musiclady

Well, she’s in Hawaii, right?  Probably sits around her hut in her granny shorts and flip- flops looking for something to do.

If she ventures out the door, they’ll throw coconuts at her sagging passive-aggressive a##.

Please ping me if you get an answer @Emjay   Thanks   ^-^

Lol..... smart cat.  Mine isn't that bright.  But he does enjoy snooping in other people's garages.  He was out all night once (also a cold night) and only came home the next morning.  I suspect he got trapped in a neighbor's garage.

[Emjay]

100% wrong. @Victoria33 hasn't been posting here because of personal attacks like yours. That's wrong and I don't believe bullies should get their way. I don't even remember the last time you commented about something "idiotic" I wrote prior to your attack on Victoria33 on this thread... If pressed to remember, we had some tiff about social security way back when... I generally don't keep grudges and forget about them... Not sure if that's a personal trait or bad memory...

I drove Victoria33 away??  About Social Security?  I wish you could remember more because if I was mean or unfair to her, I will send her a personal message apologizing.

[Emjay]

Just another example of you making it personal belittling another poster sharing an experience that had nothing to do with you or any other poster here. You do it over and over and then wonder why people get angry with your passive aggressive words while you feign innocence. Are you really that blind?

Okay, I went back and read my post to Victoria33, who, by the way, is still here.

I saw nothing that awful about it.  And nothing actual critical of her personally.

Our barn cats are out in it in -20 weather. Believe me, your cat is not effected at all by the temps you quoted.

Actually, he was effected this am the first time he went out.  I was watching him thru the window.  He would walk across a patch of ice/snow and would start flicking his paws like "what the hell is this crap???".  It was hilarious.  He was back in within five minutes.  But then, when my female wanted out, he went out AGAIN.... and stayed longer.  Can't have her showing him up, dontcha know.  lolol

You need to import one of these guys - Norwegian forest cats. They are snow proof and Trump approved!

I have been gone to a casino.  One poster thought I was still on this thread.  I leave The Briefing Room pulled up all the time so the last thread I am on shows I am there, but I am not.  I missed all the kerfuffle that went on just because I made a post.

I said: “We still have three more years of Trump chaos.  If he is still president after these three years, I think any Democrat will beat him.  A big clue to that happening will be the outcome of the upcoming election this year, how many seats the Democrats take in the House and Senate.”

As an example of this election year, how serious it is, I told the story of the Republican District Attorney coming to the house in the cold, going door to door.

As Chaos Trump does, I have given first names to a couple of posters.  They are:  Meanie and Wrongly.  Chaos Trump gives names to people constantly, so it must be a rightly. bigly, thing to do.

Meanie:
“I enjoyed your little story, but was there a point?”
“Really, I feel ashamed for challenging her.  But not ashamed enough not to do it.”
“I drove Victoria33 away??  About Social Security?  I wish you could remember more because if I was mean or unfair to her, I will send her a personal message apologizing.”
“Okay, I went back and read my post to Victoria33, who, by the way, is still here.”

DB:  “Just another example of you making it personal belittling another poster sharing an experience that had nothing to do with you or any other poster here.

DB: “More of the sorry but not really crap.”

Wrongy to Meanie: “Please ping me if you get an answer Thanks”

INVAR:  “Nothing like a shit-stirrer egging-on another shit-stirrer.”

Goodwithagun:  “Keep calm and don’t feel the troll”

Meanie to musiclady:  “I'm sure you're a nice lady.  Let's leave it at that.”

XenaLee  talks about her cat.  She is not beaten for mentioning a cat on this thread.  Unless that cat can vote, Meanie and Wrongly should go after XenaLee.

@DB, I have both Meanie and Wrongly on Ignore, as well as a few more, so I don’t see the crap they post, going after me or other people, which they do all the time.  The point is, when threads are full of word fights, the fight becomes the reason for the thread and it is useless to post in the middle of word fights and that is why I don’t do it.

On this thread, I posted on the first page, one post, and the thread went downhill after that, except for the cats.  Thank you, DB, and my other friends who posted on this thread.

Moral of the story here..... maybe we should just stick to talking about the cats.  I'm up for it!

Perhaps the moral of the story is that people who have comments to make on the subject should continue to do so, and ignore (if not officially, in practice) the passive-aggressive assaulters around here who make it a point to go after people instead of staying on topic.

I appreciate the insights of @Victoria33 , @XenaLee , @DB  , @goodwithagun and scores of other posters, whether I agree with them/you all the time or not.  Diverse opinions are what make places like this one so fascinating.  And most of us agree with most of us on everything that matters.

The passive-aggressive ones who seek to control others by intimidation need to be shunned.  When we talk about Trump (or anyone/anything else) and they attack us instead of discussing the issue, we should just "pay them no never mind."  Maybe if all of us (myself included) just turned the other way when they're up to their pranks, they'd stop the nonsense.

Anyway....... KEEP POSTING, @Victoria33 !!  You have a lot of insight that this forum needs.  Don't let the meanies drive you away................ or even make you talk just about cats.  ^-^

This is what's going to happen in October.   A stock market 'correction'...due to ongoing 'polls'

The Democrats and the MSM will claim they were 'right'....it (economy) was all smoke and mirrors and based upon a LIE. 

President Trump will point to the crash and simply say

"The People have a choice: (1) Go back to 1.5% growth, higher taxes, higher unemployment, misery index and food stamps  (2) MAGA"

That is why I have some on Ignore.  If good people on here would not take the bait of word fighters, word fights wouldn't happen.  Word fighters have pent up aggression, and since they are anonymous on the web, they lash out at people while drinking their beer.

Word fighters have pent up aggression, and since they are anonymous on the web, they lash out at people while drinking their beer.   

I was guilty of that once and I felt really terrible about it, because the lash out made me spill this delicious seasonal limited release by Boulevard Brewing.

I still think, as per the article, that Oprah is the most appropriate opponent since she's a TV personality/business mogul, as he is.

Peas in a pod, as it were.....

Just think of how much fun the debates will be.  He'd be nasty and say his usual mean boy things,  and she'd cry.

Beautiful cats.  Kind of reminds me of my mom's Maine coon. He was a chubby, furry one.
