We're never going to get a trade deal with the US and if we did it wouldn't be because Trump was pushing it through. May did the bare minimum in repudiating Trump's retweets. But him responding really helps her, makes it look like she's pushing back against a man who is widely despised by almost all shades of political opinion. She needs to push back again to get any real benefit though.

You realize it's only going to get worse, don't you.

Yep, and am not sure the US will be able to recover its credibility now that the Republicans have demonstrated they can live with crazy.  Even if your next President is stellar,  you will always be one election away from repeating this madness

Not sure that makes sense. Unless Republican voters are immutable, things change as generations pass.

That's been my biggest disappointment, not Trump but the Republican reaction.  They seem so eager to normalize his stupidity.

Collins made it clear what the priority was - making their donors happy.

Um...sorry?

I feel sorry for her, she called out Trump on him endorsing the Britain First leader's views (retweeted her youtube video links)



Beg to differ. This is great for her.

No I just meant I feel sorry for her having to deal with this sort of bullshit from Trump. My reaction was on a human level, not judging her on the politics.

Unfortunately, she's now in the crosshairs, as uppity cunts grate on The Donald on a level exceeded only by uppity minorities.

That was my first thought.

QuoteSpeaking from the pulpit at Magnolia Springs Baptist Church in Alabama Wednesday night, Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore accused liberals, gays, bisexuals, transgender people, and socialists of fabricating sexual harassment allegations against him in an effort to keep his conservative Christian views out of Washington.

The Alabama Republican has repeatedly and emphatically denied accusations that he initiated a sexual encounter with a woman when she was 14 and he was 32, as well as the accounts of several other women who have said Moore inappropriately pursued them when they were teenagers.

During his sermon-like speech Wednesday night, Moore again dismissed the women's claims as "false and malicious," blaming the raft of stories about his alleged misconduct on a "conspiracy" cooked up by "Democrats pushing a liberal agenda" who have "tried unsuccessfully" to ruin his campaign.

"When I say they who are 'they?'" he told the clapping congregation. "They're liberals. They don't hold conservative values. They are the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender who want to change our culture. They are socialists who want to change our way of life and put man above God and the government is our God. They're the Washington establishment...who don't want to lose their power."

Only in the era of Trump could this guy get elected.

I never thought I'd hear that from the pulpit at Magnolia Springs Baptist Church in Alabama.

It's Alabama.  So not limited to Trump era.

Taking responsibility for your actions is clearly not a conservative value to this guy. I wonder what exactly conservative values are to a dude like this.

So Trump is going to visit England.  Is Prince George going to meet him in a bathrobe?

Isn't Prince George about five years old?
