    Trump is gone and the world didnt end
    Ok so time has allowed the smoke to blow away, but as the level of rhetoric has died down, normality has returned and the great ego, the wizard behind the curtain is no longer heard shouting i am the great and powerful

    Tell you what, from my perspective it is good to know that rational people are in charge even though i may not agree with every thing they say

    rational people like elitist JFKerry who said that pipeline workers who lose their job because of Quid's decision to stop the Keystone pipeline should “go to work to make the solar panels.”

    Which at present would likely mean moving to China.

    "At least seven people were in custody late Sunday after homeless activists, some reportedly armed with hatchets and knives, "forcibly" occupied the lobby and 17 rooms at the Red Lion Hotel in Olympia, Wash, according to officials.

    The activists were with a group calling itself Oly Housing Now. They occupied the hotel in an apparent takeover attempt to demand pandemic housing, reports said."

    Tragically, this group was not associated with Donald Trump, so liberal dems are expected to yawn no more loudly than they typically do. President What's His Name is not likely to comment unless instructed to by Ms. Pelosi.

    They don't like fences unless, of course, the fences are there to protect THEM.

    or even better... VP Harris says that workers who lose their job in West Virginia can work reclaiming abandoned land mines .

    Quote:

    We asked Harris about plans for retraining of those workers, something people have heard before with little follow through.
    “All of those skilled workers who are in the coal industry and transferring those skills to what we need to do in terms of dealing with reclaiming abandoned land mines; what we need to do around plugging leaks from oil and gas wells; and, transferring those important skills to the work that has yet to be done that needs to get done,” the vice president said.

    And people said she didn't know anything about the economy!

    I hope she meant "land mines" in some way other than the explosive variety.

    In other news, we have another major win for liberal dems. "Oregon mayor slams ‘culture of criminality’ in Portland amid riots: ‘This is defund the police.’" I'm sure they'll figure out some way to blame Trump for this.

    Seriously, people tolerating this craziness is a never ending source of amazement to me. Pretty sure it's going to turn out that Revelation was not code after all.

    Exactly correct. The problem is that his surrogates like Kerry are going about the country suggesting otherwise.

    And what part of capping abandon wells and fixing leaks is it that confuses you?

    Abandoned land mines disguised language for abandoned wells of which there will be many more

    You don't reclaim abandoned wells. You simply cap them. So that would leave the other 99% of laid off miners looking for work.

    Probably help to know the difference between miners and oil and gas workers.
