She’s “Low IQ”
One has to wonder how much more gas Trump has in the tank when he calls those who disapprove of him (especially blacks and women) “low IQ.” Aren’t we approaching a point when this type of stupidity will cease to …

Removing Trump
I seriously doubt that anyone wants to see what is described at left, insofar as it’s unconstitutional. What most Americans want is: a) Congress removes Trump from office using the 25th Amendment. b) He’s then indicted on the wide variety …
What’s Happened to the United States?
The foreign policy of the United States is a catastrophe, putting it mildly. We could begin with the tearing up of the internationally negotiated treaty with the world and Iran and then move on to starting a war with them …
