It’s blatant, intentional, politically motivated lies which should lead to attempted murder charges. Trump and his goons are hurting their own supporters. The guy is heartless, soulless, zero integrity, should be in jail. What the frick is wrong with us for letting a raving monster roam free?

Let alone to run for the highest office in the land - especially while he is awaiting trial for attempting to overthrow the government! As President Obama asked yesterday - "When did that become okay??"

Voting for a serial lying, morally degenerate conman convicted 34 times to be president. And yet howl about lies told regarding Democratic candidates.

Back in the 80s, my widowed Grandma in Indiana living on a Soldiers pension and the few bucks she got payed cleaning other peoples houses sent a monthly check to Oral Roberts. I wanted to scream. I’m sure that’s exactly what Jesus wanted to happen.

And I feel terrible for my friend's client - and my friend is "one of us," so she's got the facts, but she's still unsuccessful in changing this woman's self-destructive behavior.

A Christian Woman always looking to do what was correct. In my two cents worth, sending money to Roberts wasn’t correct. She was a wonderful cook. On the other hand, my maternal Grandmother was a party animal. They did exist back in the 50s.

But after joining a peace group (I joined them on their first visit to their "sister town" in the USSR), she finally realized that the Republican party had left Lincoln behind and she voted for President Clinton in 1992 and 1996 - at ages 92 and 96.

And in 92 and 96, republicans weren’t near the monsters they are today.

Between 92 and 96 I was stranded in route on Navy business because newt decided it would be wise to shut the government down. Republicans sometimes make suckers and losers improvise for no apparent reason.

However, my Irish grandfather was a lifelong Democrat, that side of my family still is. However, my grandfather (WWI vet) died suddenly when my Dad was 12.

My maternal grandmother was an immigrant from Poland. Her first vote on becoming a citizen was for LBJ (and I was told that my father held that against her). And I still remember the classic portrait of JFK she had framed on the wall in her living room. Wish I had that now.
