I m just grateful that you get my jokes....
I have to explain them to most folks.....

Given your politics, I would think you'd cheer this, if it is indeed what is happening.their strategy has cost them the mid term election.
OK. What I don't get is why you would think this, and yet not think that the combination of the unquestioning diehard Trump true believers, the lack of any actual proof of "corruption at the fbi and justice", the flagrant and publicly admitted obstruction of justice, and the general hatefulness of the GOP, has virtually guaranteed REPUBLICAN losses in the 2018 cycle.

Just a couple of things as i'm in a hurry:but you look at it and tell me if you think that anything that the Dems are doing is attractive or inspiring?
Road apples...the only thing that the average American sees are the democrats being hateful and enraged.
Wait. How can an "average American" watch a video of a Trump rally, any Trump rally—or even just turn on Fox News—and NOT see Trump and his supporters "being hateful and enraged"???? and NOT "hear what they call us"????wesw wrote:the only thing that the average American sees are the democrats being hateful and enraged.

Abstract
This study describes the prevalence of childhood traumatic events (CTEs) among adults with comorbid substance use disorders (SUDs) and mental health problems (MHPs) and assesses the relation between cumulative CTEs and adult health outcomes. Adults with SUDs/MHPs (N=402) were recruited from residential treatment programs and interviewed at treatment admission. Exposures to 9 types of adverse childhood experiences were summed and categorized into 6 ordinal levels of exposure. Descriptive analyses were conducted to assess the prevalence and range of exposure to CTEs in comparison with a sample from primary health care. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the association between the cumulative exposure to CTEs and adverse health outcomes. Most of the sample reported exposure to CTEs, with higher exposure rates among the study sample compared with the primary health care sample. Greater exposure to CTEs significantly increased the odds of several adverse adult outcomes, including PTSD, alcohol dependence, injection drug use, tobacco use, sex work, medical problems, and poor quality of life.

One of the children separated from his parents at the US-Mexico border was returned months later with lice, looking as if he hadn’t been bathed in weeks, and with irrevocable changes to his personality, his mother said, according to documents filed in a lawsuit against the Trump administration.
That detail comes from PBS’s Lisa Desjardins reporting for PBS Newshour. The lawsuit, from 17 states and the District of Columbia, calls for an end to Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and demands the administration reunite all families that were separated at the border.
According to Desjardins, one mother, Olivia Caceres, alleged that she was separated from her son in November at a legal point entry, according to PBS, and wasn’t with him for 12 weeks. When he was returned to her custody, Caceres’s son was infested with lice and appeared as though he had not been bathed for the entirety of their separation, PBS reported. ..."
