No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Frankie, have you joined the chorus of Trumpites who accuse everyone who doesn't love your guy of being a Democrat??

Shame on you.   **nononono*

Nah. Not you. You seem for like an Evan McMuffin devotee than a Rat.....

Somewhere, I thought I heard a news report saying the same thing. I guess, they were just reporting what he tweeted then.

I think that some posters forget that they can get caught when making claims that are at odds with reality.

Phhht.  She didn’t like getting called out on her BS which gives the gang the sads.   Awwww.  Here’s a snot rag for you to share.

Trump's mysterious ratings mixup

by Emily Jashinsky | Feb 1, 2018, 1:14 PM


President Trump tweeted about his State of the Union address on Thursday, claiming that "45.6 million people watched, the highest number in history."

As my colleague Philip Wegmann noted, the estimated 45.6 million viewers (per Nielsen) is not the highest number in history, nor is it even the highest number for Trump, whose joint address to Congress last year even had a bigger audience.

Why is the president of the United States making such easily disproved false statements on such trivial matters? That's not a rhetorical question, I'm genuinely at a loss.

Sanders corrected Trump’s assertion by clarifying this speech was the highest ever rated by Brigitte Nielsen.


I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

That's good enough for me.

Actually, I'm a Conservative looking for a Party.

If you hear of any,  let me know, OK?  ^-^

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

    @musiclady There is only ONE Trumper here that I have a problem with, OK maybe 2, but the majority of them are Good People with respect for TBR and have thoughtful and intelligent insight on most all issues.

   @Emjay's not one of my problem child's even though it's pretty obvious that she brought the Molotov cocktail to this party.

   Now back to your regularly scheduled broadcast.

I agree, @corbe .  The vast majority are good people............. some a tad sensitive, but good people, nonetheless.

Oh I got a party going baby and it is happening this weekend! If you could bring either some top quality hashish or a decent California dip for vegetables, that would be great.

Excuse me, missy, but you didn't "call out" anyone on anything.

You just made up a silly story and apparently aren't capable of admitting that it wasn't even remotely true, and are digging the hole you've started even deeper.

btw, did you make a comment on the subject of the thread, or are you just trolling and telling people they're going to hell for things you just made up that were never said?

Just curious.....

   It's a trap, the last #Never that went to one of his parties was never heard from again.

The dip is fine.  Mind if I get it out of a little packet or something like that?

Well the drugs come in a little packet so why not the dip.

That isn't my fault. They usually can't find their way back to the Section 8 housing they live in from the suburbs. Obamaphones GPS only cover the ghetto.

Invitation is in the mail. Just be aware that for the first 30 minutes of the party I will be showing a slide projector presentation on the benefits of becoming a fellow Amway salesperson.

I've BEEN to one of those!

We couldn't escape.   It took us 2 years to get out the door.

I may just decline your invitation.

But thanks for thinking of me.  :dx1:
