Catching the currents of the prevailing political wind, Kid has set about erasing himself.

Wise move, Kid. Wise move.

Have a party, Dems:

I don’t think he ever did find those bone spurs. Is it possible they were faked?

At any rate,

bambu-ilk have stepped in...campaign on the radio this morning  "Save Joe, put him in quarantine", "returning travellers Covid positive, a disease, are being put in quarantine, Joe should have the same right".
"Joe could be disease-free...if so he should be returned to his home in Alabama, or left in the backyard where he has new friends."

There are 3 million fewer jobs currently than when the coup started in 2016. That’s a lot of restaurants.

Trump is an utter failure, a permanent disqualifying stain on each and every one of his supporters.

Pay attention.  Week to week.  Restaurant jobs, right?

The hook in you lip doesn’t make anyone but Bambu more inclined to kiss you.

About half the jobs in question are in restaurants and the hospitality industry, probably as a result of it becoming clear that trump has failed to achieve a vaccine rollout commensurate with the crisis.

Republicans promote failure. It’s why their biggest failure is at the top of their party.

It usually takes years to develop a vaccine.
Many Americans promoted their own failure...that boat rally in Wisconsin, for example.

Biden to address nation, call for the opening of schools.  Also masks, social distancing and limiting indoor gatherings

No way I'd be opening the schools, to any but children of essential workers and anyone truly needing to work.
There are record numbers of infections.

I hope your leave is for positive things happening for you, Deej. Good luck in any case. We’ll try to keep the home fires burning in your absence.

The Break-up...

"I'm going back to Mother!"

Thanks LB, and also FacTorn!  Your feedback is always appreciated.  I will be taking a leave of absence after next Wed.  Hope you two stay well and safe along with Banks and Harry.
Thanks Josh for keeping Elba afloat!

I imagine we will be here when you return. Thanks for letting us know.

Be well!

He did not give the old boss a glowing review.

[bambu.]

So now they're going to leave Trump's impeachment Senate trial on the desk and do nothing about it for 100 days so as not to detract from Biden's settling in?
Therefore it's not about "removing a dangerous President from office etc" at all, but about "revenge", "hatred", and crushing him so he can't run again?

No worries, they should just run the son is his place.
Nothing preventing daddy from being campaign manager.

[Yankguy1]

No. It’s about holding him accountable and making sure he can never hold federal public office again.

If the Republicans are stupid enough to run Junior they will deserve the whipping they get.

[facilitatorn]

Jr. won’t be out in time to run. Maybe Eric? He wasn’t in DC on the stage getting taped at least. Ivanka was actually in government while complicit, so she’s out. Tiffany?

[REDSTATEWARD]

So even before he is President Biden reneges on $2000 dollar checks.
