Read it well, these themes of his have endured, so we must expect to see their iteration. Always believe a person who tells who they are, especially when his actions speak so loudly. Here it is, from WAPO:

Question One – When might we expect to see Representative Mark Amodei  (R-NV2) hold a town hall meeting to explain to the 22,500 constituents who have health insurance via the Affordable Care Act in his district why repealing the ACA is such a great idea?

Question Two – If the Trumpster Administration shuts down the multi-agency investigation of contacts and ties to the Putin regime, will the beltway media slink off quietly into the night, or will the press pursue the story?

Question Three: Will we have to subscribe to foreign newspapers to find out the results of investigations into collusion between the Trumpster and the Russians?

Question Four – How quickly will Trumpster cabinet members find out that running a government department dealing with real issues affecting real people isn’t fun when reality clashes with their ideological fantasies?

Who Never Lost by Emily Dickinson

Yep. Reblogged from “How My Heart Speaks”.

 

How my heart speaks

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Who never lost, are unprepared
A Coronet to find!
Who never thirsted
Flagons, and Cooling Tamarind!

Who never climbed the weary league –
Can such a foot explore
The purple territories
On Pizarro’s shore?

How many Legions overcome –
The Emperor will say?
How many Colors taken
On Revolution Day?

How many Bullets bearest?
Hast Thou the Royal scar?
Angels! Write “Promoted”
On this Soldier’s brow!

I’ve been pretty much offline due to a downed computer. I don’t know when I’ll get back to posting, but I’m working on it. I did see last night’s debate from a friend’s iPad, and it was something unique among a list of strange debates I’ve seen in my life. It was a contest between the classic example of the highly prepared, high achieving, first woman in her field, who knows she has to be 10 percent better than everyone just to be equal, and Rooster T. Foghorn.

If I can figure out how to link the debate transcript here, from the iPad, I will do it. For now, Washington Post has it.
