Am I the only one who finds it terribly appropriate that the ātrain-wreckā that IS the GOP just experienced a very real train wreck??? WTF! 
today is completely upside down. just re-wrote the daily update 
week*
i guess this confirms that trump likes to ask for loyalty pledgesā¦
BONUS SCOOP:
Amy 0204 - your response about your minister friend totally resonates with me. I have long felt that Satan has returned to earth and is inhabiting the body of one orange person. I think that he made a pact with the devil and as part of that, his cohorts on congress are looking the other way. Ultimately and eventually, though, good will triumph. Itās just so hard to sit and watch this ātrain wreckā happen. That was no coincidence either. It was downright Jungian in its impact.
This is actually quite shocking, especially because SOTU speeches typical skew more favorable because a lot of time the opposing partyās base (idk the right term here? lol) doesnāt even watch. Since Trump exasperates all-things-partisan that was even more so this time in ānormalā years, with active counter-programming campaigns/events, etc.
I guess Nostradamus got it wrong, the āKing of Terrorā will not be coming from the east wearing a blue turban, heāll be coming from the west wearing an orange oneā¦
Or maybe he will have that blue turban after allā¦
Imagine that? Itās as if some people are actually capable of separating their personal views from their professional responsibilities.
Seems like a great example of irony. As much as I feel for the victims and their families, I have to admit that I was a little bit amused when I heard the news. Iām sorry anybody was hurt, but I also feel that the Universe demands retribution. Perhaps this is just the start. A good friend of mine who is a minister truly believes that Satan, himself, has returned to earth and you can see his presence in how people behave towards one another, in nature as demonstrated by the hurricanes, the fires and the CA mudslides, in the escalation of tensions between countries - and the list keeps growing. Iām not one to assign persona to good and evil, but sometimes I wonder if my friend is on to something. I wonder if those GOP folks who were on that train are saying their prayers tonight, if for no other reason than to be grateful that their lives were spared. I believe that Trump and many of his henchmen are the epitome of evil. Itās enough that Iāve started praying from time to time.
Ya think? 
Just like a mob boss, not remotely like a president or any sort of āpublic servantā. 
Methinks the CNN Mousseline reference suits. We Canadians watch with fascinated horrorā¦
