Another electoral landslide?

Well, Toddler, for starters, for there to be "another" landslide there would need to be a first one.

Landslide is trending the other way, despite Kid’s favorite push poller and propagandist burning their scant credibility to pull trump out of his historic loser category.

I think the Christianity Today call for Trump's removal won't have a huge impact, but it may start some slow ripples going

I love how in his tweet pretending that he has ever once opened the cover of Christianity Today, the "president"* referred to it as "ET."

BTW, it should be said, that while I don’t know if Impeachment was the last straw or what, but considering we are talking about a guy who has cheated on all three of his wives, brags about grabbing women by the pussy and has been credibly accused of physical assault by almost two dozen women, hurls insults at the disabled and the deceased, separates families and cages children, and oh yeah who lies like a rug if Evangelicals are finally ready to say yeah, this guy does not have the moral character to be President, well, Bravo.

Sucks that we cant have a president as good at his job as Trump while also being a great guy.  To this I agree - and also ask - which is more important?

Funny that JFK was such a fucking louse and a mediocre CIC yet is so revered.  Rebutt?

Only those who are in it for judges and tax breaks think Trumpmis doing a good job. The rest of you are cultists.

From your faulty opening premise to your misspelling of "rebut," this post is a carnival of laughs.

The results are in on the analysis of trump’s letter to the speaker.

http://www.salon.com/2019/12/20/mental-health-professionals-read-trumps-letter-a-study-in-the-psychotic-mind-at-work/

Broken since childhood, a danger to us all, undoubtedly the worst president in history. Likely America’s most perverse public figure, narrowly beating out J. Edgar Hoover, who at least had better taste in evening wear.

Mega fire still burning, could be joining with another big fire to form a super-mega fire and advance on Sydney.
No rain, no hope...the dozens of major uncontained fires just keep on burning, ...more homes destroyed, fire fighters badly hurt and some fathers of toddlers dead [tree fell on the truck].
Volunteers, their families left with no husbands, no fathers, no income, no compensation, nothing.
It's a total outrage.
bambu volunteer for anything?  No!  especially after this reminder.
I'd want a 'million' dollars a day to risk my life fighting fires...any medical bills paid in full, $5m for any injuries sustained, and a $10m payout to my family if I were killed.

Fire fighters from America and Canada are arriving today to help...right into a 'furnace'...116F in Sydney's west today.

Probably what I just said....especially the volunteers and families bit.
Unfortunately he's off air at present, Christmas vacation, returns end of Jan.

It's Sat morn, that radio host is already agitating for RFS [Rural fire Service] volunteer fire fighters to be paid.
It's insurance they and their families need.

There are RFS volunteers making sandwiches etc, different and valuable work they do...that is not life-threatening.
Radio poll is 50-50 for payment of volunteers...the no-ideas are voting no.
There's plenty of money...everyone should be getting paid something.
