The photo was obviously staged to show him alone, with Secret Service agents off to the side. He wants to appear brave and tough. I'm okay with it. I'm in favor of anything that places him out in the open without Secret Service protection.Originally posted by Moliere View Post"The mind is not a boomerang.

Yeah - but it doesn't show the capital police in riot gear with shields lining each side of the road in front of him. It looks like he's without protection, but he isn't.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View PostComment

I thought this was a good opinion piece on how the world has learned to deal with Trump. A couple good excerpts:
For Russia, this means overlooking its own economic problems and the coronavirus pandemic to step up its engagement in the Libyan civil war. For its part, the Chinese leadership seems to believe that it is impossible to conciliate Mr. Trump, but that there is also little to fear from him.Meanwhile, German Chancellor Angela Merkel blew up Mr. Trump’s plan for a high-profile demonstration of Western unity by declining his invitation to a June Group of Seven summit at Camp David—now postponed to September—citing pandemic-related concerns. Together with her decision to join French President Emmanuel Macron in promoting a massive aid package for the fragile Covid-hit southern economies in the Eurozone, a clear pattern emerges: As the world crisis intensifies, Germany’s priority will be the European Union. The president is not exactly irrelevant to Berlin’s thinking. But the German sense seems to be that there is little to gain by trying to work with Mr. Trump and little to lose by ignoring him.I can't wait to vote for Biden.Recent events reinforce a beliefs in many foreign capitals that U.S. society has entered a period of dysfunctional chaos and that the American political system is no longer capable of providing consistent leadership in international affairs. As each president dedicates himself to the destruction of the previous executive’s policies, what Mark Twain said about New England’s weather begins to look like a description of American foreign policy: If you don’t like it now, just wait a few minutes."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb) has been among my top picks for the GOP nomination in 2024 (and would be now were it possible). While a few Repub senators continue to praise everything Trump does, including yesterday's self-aggrandizing photo op that resulted in tear-gassing a peaceful protest, Sasse nails it:
There is no right to riot, no right to destroy others’ property, and no right to throw rocks at police. But there is a fundamental — a Constitutional — right to protest, and I’m against clearing out a peaceful protest for a photo op that treats the Word of God as a political prop,Comment

Yes, more of this please GOP.Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View Post"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

As much as Sasse's words are welcome, I believe he waited until he won his Repub primary before speaking out. He's stating the obvious now. Where has that been? But hopefully he will join Mitt in pointing out what a POS that DJT is.
I notice Mitt has begged off commenting. Does he really need to at this point?Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I for one think it would be nice if more than one prominent GOP member at a time said something about the ever-present elephant taking a dump in the living room.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post
