Unfortunately, the GA 6 runoff is expected to be 'in the bag' for the GOP. The assumption is that the GOP voters who spread their votes out amongst the (IIRC) 5 GOP candidate will all vote for Handel. Those combined votes will outnumber Ossoff's Dem votes by a slim majority.

Is it to be the most expensive election for a single seat in history? Smile

cozietoesie · 12/06/2017 15:51

In history so far. Wink

"Double dare" exists. But is there such a thing as an "infinite dare"? If so, I infinite dare @realDonaldTrump to fire the Special Counsel.

cozietoesie · 12/06/2017 16:03

He surely wouldn't.

lionheart · 12/06/2017 16:10

That would be a HUGE mistake but who knows?

Ouch. Sorry, Claws.

It does rather underscore a sentiment expressed in a piece earlier, though. 45 doesn't seem able to handle 'business as usual'. How on earth would he and his administration cope if there was an 'event'?

Orlantina · 12/06/2017 16:46

Tuesday will be interesting.

I wish we had these things here with the same level of interest. I've occasionally watched Education committee debates.

cozietoesie · 12/06/2017 16:47

Doubly sorry. catgirl of course. Blush

cozietoesie · 12/06/2017 16:51

Tuesday could be interesting indeed. It does make you realise that honesty really is the best policy, in politics as elsewhere.

They're also rounding up Kurds in Tenn & other states. Seems nationwide sweeps of Chaldeans & Kurds.

FantasticButtocks · 12/06/2017 17:23

Surely, when it comes to Trump lying about what he said to Comey, he will be asked why he asked Sessions and Kushner to leave the room. Sessions will also be asked about being asked to leave the room, whether that happened and if so, why did he think that was.... What possible reason could he make up have for doing that?

cozietoesie · 12/06/2017 17:30

'Politeness'. ( He had no idea what 45 wanted to say to Comey after all - it could have been deeply personal.) Smile

Marking place. Thanks for the new thread Claws

Finally tracked down a clip of the Trump rant from last week's Last Leg.

It does contain strong language so don't watch with children in the room/or at work!
