Listening to the Stockholm /NE Patriots/Lance Armstrong syndromes coming from economic victims of Trump tariffs is exhausting.
"I think he's gonna pull through for us."
"It's gonna hurt at first but I trust him to get things better than before!"
"It's worth it just to be able to yell N***** ! Yeeehaaaw!"
Healthcare seems to be the one issue where GOP voters consistently turn on the GOP if they fuck with it hard enough.
Don't think so. I think he loses reelection in 2019 tbh. He has had some legendary fuck ups thinking he could pull off Trump shit, like when he blamed child abuse on teachers for striking.
Previous governor was a dem and I think they get back in

Joke is on you Trump has his own hotel.
Seriously though would Dems have the power to investigate and charge Trump with multiple emoluments once they take back the House?
You're underestimating how pissed people are here. At Bevin, specifically. After the pensions debacle, this'll be the final straw.
Some will, many won't. The states that have had the teachers revolts are showing way more instability than other red states.
And he handled said teachers revolt 10000000x worse than literally anyone else
Yeah, people really underestimate teachers getting mad.
Bevin's not very popular anyway and is a dick.
Pretty much all the Louisville/Kentucky basketball fans I talk to online hate him.
His pick will get 54ish votes anyway, so even if a Republican votes no, it won't matter
Ron Paul tweeted out a racist Ben Garrison cartoon decrying "cultural marxism" and then deleted it lmao
Bevin being an unpopular fuckwad could also cause KY-06, currently a Tossup, to be moved to Lean D. I recall reading that when the DCCC's polling showed a 15-point lead for McGrath, they couldn't believe it, but the numbers held when the conducted more polls.
Though I admit I rooted for Jim Gray (I want to see more women and openly gay men in office), I really like McGrath. She's a badass!
And why does Ron Paul feel the need to hide his bigotry? He published a white-supremacist newsletter for years.

This actually may be 50-49 because of Roe. Manchin is not talking like a guy who's planning on voting yes.
Was that the district with the "goddamnit both the DCCC candidate and the other challenger look like ideal DCCC recruits why can't they be in two different districts" problem?
They can investigate but I'm not sure if they can directly charge.
They can certainly impeach him.
But as I've explained many times, impeachment is a political process, not a legal one. The House can impeach the president for sneezing if it can muster 218 votes.
Yes. Jim Gray, the guy I mentioned, actually won KY-06 when he ran against Rand Paul in 2016.
But this way, maybe he can challenge McConnell in 2020.
In my anecdotal experience, a lot of Ron Paul fans are educated, "Libertarian" male engineer types whose political stance amounts to "I hate paying taxes". The point is that they don't think of themselves as racist. Policies that strongly favor whites but don't explicitly mention race is just survival of the fittest to them, but they'd never support an openly racist candidate.
I actually see KY as a prime pickup opportunity in 2020, honestly.
Bah. Fine, then impeach it is. I'll be so happy to have a house that can launch and direct legitimate investigations, rather than one that is trying hide any wrong doings.
It really is quite something how so many Trump but not Trump republicans simply don't get the same sort of cover or popularity when they pull their bullshit that Trump does.
Really when you have guys who apparently can't pull off the "lol space force", "lol fart act", "was I talked about Rosie odennell? Lol" their agenda just doesn't go over well with people even in really red areas
Just a spoonful of memes help the facism go down

Unfortunately I doubt they'll impeach in the House when they know it'll fail by a mile in the Senate.
I don't disagree, especially if Dems can scrape a Senate majority together this year.
This makes me worry, moreso, for the refugee and other immigrant communities in NE Ohio, primarily in Cleveland and Akron. We've already seen ICE raids.
Remember the season 1 episode of Friends where George moves into an apartment across the street and Monica, Rachel, and Phoebe spy on him because they find him sexy?
This is obviously a serious article, but I can't hear about a sorghum farmer without immediately flashing to this -
The GOP bench is actually pretty weak in Kentucky. Bevin and Rand Paul being able to make it through statewide primaries should say a lot.
I'd guess some rich unlikeable businessman would win the GOP primary if Turtle retires.
Yep, SDNY gets all Cohen evidence, and it feels like a Stone indictment will be coming soon so possibly this week.
As in you think he'll lose?
I think the man loves power to much to retire.

Richard Pinedo, the California man charged in connection with the special counsel office's Russian troll farm case (but not directly accused of knowingly helping the Russians interfere in the 2016 election), is scheduled for sentencing on Oct. 1
12:27 PM - Jul 2, 2018
And Andy Beshear beating Bevin in 2019 feels more possible than ever.
Seems like 1.3 mil docs finally released to the government today. Explains Cohen's sudden PR appearences.
Also, seems like maybe investigators didnt actually have the evidence yet. Today might be the first day for that...

Dude was an American citizen though and had an American name.
1. Although it would certainly butter up the President to stay in his hotel, Kim would be crazy to do so (or even to enter the US at all) for security reasons. It'd be like Trump staying in the Pyongyang Hotel, or using an unsecured cell phone (... maybe not a great example)
2. Kim Jong Un is not the only one who needs to worry about his reception in NYC.
