I don't think it is connected with a particular political party. It's more universal than that.

My comment wasn't divorced of politics. I simply meant that it's not about which side someone is on. Same as your question about whether Trump is savior or not. It transcends political parties. Let's face it: gridlock has deterred progress. The more unified the people that represent us are, the better.

I keep reminding him that he should listen for the safe word as he picks it up, shakes it, and slams it to the floor to hump. He pauses and give me a glance and continues because he doesn't understand.

Like me he doesn't get allegory quickly

It takes some work to set up an account, only to get bounced out of here after one or two posts.

It makes no sense to me!

I feel that if they are going to troll, they should at least ease into it instead of blowing it all on one or two posts.

I hate to say it, but I think they may be stupid.

He's older than you, at least in dog years. Hope his health is holding up. You had him since he was a pup, or adopted him later in life?

Our Bernese is 3 and our Leonberger is only 9 months, but we had to put down our 12-year-old German shepherd/English mastiff mix last year. He was arthritic when we adopted him at age 4. We gave him the best life we could for eight years and he brought us infinite joy -- until infinity ran out.

Damn shame that dogs' lifespans are so short.

Enjoy each day, Lucky!

And financial assets. They are and will be invading other countries in a brutal way.

They could not care less about the welfare and prosperity of the regular person.

They are the epitome of the prison system you describe and they get stronger each day.

that is 200 feet long, and we'll have to have a professional stylist wrap that hair around our skull every morning to make it look like we have a full head of hair.

It's going to be fucking great!

The bad part is...we're all going to smell like a mixture of shit and Hai Karate aftershave.

And we'll be walking around with baggy-ass suits and red ties that are so long, they will be dipping into the toilet every time we use the bathroom.

But other than that? Things are going to be splendid!

I will never again have faith & trust that my SS money will come each month.
Our allies and friends will never have faith & trust in America again.
Hope here has largely died.
The United States will be a second class world nation with nukes.

2028 would mark 400 years since my family came here from England. I had ancestors that fought in all the wars, including the Revolutionary War. My dad landed on Omaha Beach fighting for freedom. I never thought that it would be my generation that would see the end of the dream that was once America.
Will even the Statue of Liberty survive the evil that Trump has brought upon this nation?

I think our sin was one on national pride and complacency, taking our nation for granted we believed that our nation was too great to ever fall and lose democracy and have looked upon our Founding Fathers like gods who gave us our Constitution with its checks and balances would protect our Republic.
No Ben, we couldn't keep it. We may survived but we will never be the same.
How art the mighty fallen.
