Candidates for the Democratic nomination out fundraised Trump 2 to 1, banking over $70 million in funding from small donors in Q1, to Trump's measly $30 million. In addition to lagging in fundraising, Trump’s approval rating, remains underwater. That unpopularity is especially acute in electoral college swing states. The bottom line is that Trump is very beatable. Provided Democrats don't indulge in electoral cannibalism , whichever Democrats gets to face him will beat him easily.

Someone brought up the German health care system. That never happens. Here in the good ol' US of A we are supposed to make pretend that no industrialized countries figured out health care. Or, more precisely, we are supposed to make pretend that no other countries exist unless them are in need of corrective bombings.

I also love whoever the Democrats nominate provided the contest is fair and transparent. That said...I think Pete can go the distance. He is legit.

Read this statement from Sen. Laura Sturgeon and compare it with the DE-NRA's statement below. The contrast is dizzying.

I guess this is a measure of how freaked out the Delaware branch of the NRA is. BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE! Sen. Townsend and some of his anti-American freedom cronies…

Wikileaks might have started as a transparency organization, but it ended up part of the Russian propaganda effort that elected Trump. Fuck that guy.

Did I say loath? I meant love. He has stated that Trump is an agent of Putin, and stands by that based on the known facts. But he is also running on the "I'm going to out-Coons Chris Coons" platform. He might be the eventual nominee, so that's as far as I'll go, but my sense is that America is not clamouring for a guy who promises to put Republicans in his cabinet and try to talk to the NRA as if they are looking for some common sense compromises.

I can't talk about it (as you'll see below) but I was just introduced to the club. Apparently, all human-beings of goodwill are by default in the club. They remain in the club by following the four rules, and three guidances.
