Meanwhile in Canada: "cartoon by Michael de Adder: signs #DonaldTrump is killing the US economy: global selloff of US Treasury Bonds, repatriation of gold reserves & declining use of the Petrodollar... the guy who conned his way through life & managed to bankrupt casinos is an economic disaster..."

There is a group of people that believe they are put out by immigrants. Immigrants have never done anything to infringe on them. These people have been told that they have been left out b/c of immigrants taking from them. It’s been drilled into them to make them hate & want them gone.

SOTU was quite a show - more like a Trump rally than an honest policy speech. He spent most of it trying to justify what he's done; of course, he lives in a bubble so little of it was actually true. No forward-facing policy at all. I don't think tthat the 'Stand up!' crap changed anyone's thinking.

SO TO BE CLEAR, TRUMP WANTS REPUBLICANS TO "WIN THE MIDTERMS" SO HE WON'T BE IMPEACHED. NOT TO HELP MIDDLE CLASS FAMILIES. NOT TO PASS POLICIES TO HELP VOTERS MAKE ENDS MEET. NOT TO MAKE HEALTH CARE MORE ACCESSIBLE OR CREATE BETTER PAYING JOBS.🚫 ABOUT MAKING AMERICANS' LIVES BETTER… #WakeUpAmerica

FLASHBACK: These humane immigration answers from Bush & Reagan show it’s the Republican Party that has become much more extreme. Think either of these guys could even come close to winning a Republican primary these days? 😬

Trump just freed a convicted cocaine trafficker while killing drug pawns in boats for, in his mind, trafficking drugs. This may very well be the high water mark of his presidency. At least, we should MAKE it so...
