No he doesn't. Trump is a snivelling, insecure coward.

This is why Republicans are in no position to talk smack.

If Sinema, O'Rourke and She Guevara are the best the Democrats have to offer, they have some big problems. Complete idiots. It's like we have Caligula appointing his horse to the Senate.
Caligula never appointed his horse to the Senate. His 20th century counterpart, on the other hand, appointed a truckload of swampish creatures to positions of great power.

Furthermore, Democrats elected seven scientists in the midterm elections. Republicans elected a dead pimp. And if your renaming Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as She Guevara is fair comment, which it is not, it would be fair to rename Steve King as He(rmann) Göring.

Yes, he does, and plenty of it. Too much, in fact. In his case a better word for 'guts', however, is 'obesity'.

Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Climate deniers who support presidents who think climate change is a Chinese hoax probably shouldn't call people idiots. Just sayin'...

Btw, Trump is Caligula. Combover Caligula is one of the names the internet has given him. It's probably unwise for Trump worshippers to bring up Caligula.
Try your best, Seabass. Keep lying and accusing me of being a "climate denier." Put your trust in Kyrsten Sinema, Beto O'Rourke and She Guevara - they know what they're doing. "The first thing we do, is raise all the taxes to 70%!" - Alexandria Ocathio-Corteth.
Well, I saw the 60 Minutes clip to which you are probably referring.

Either:
A. you don't know how marginal tax rates work,
B. you are being dishonest, or
C. you are, as is so often the case, mindlessly parroting far-right disinformation.

My guess would be C.


And by the way, if you are not alarmed about climate change at this stage, you are in denial. That makes you a climate denier.

Alarmed about what? The highest levels of sea ice in a decade in the arctic were recorded in 2016 and 50+ years of data from the arctic weather stations does not show any notable rise in temperatures. :dunno:

I'm not particularly alarmed...

I have the data from the NOAA FTP, which they've pulled now... I can send it to you if you like.
