Hello Aaron,
>LL>>Do our liberal friends find Nancy's behavior amusing?
>LL>
>LL>She is competent, unlike the clown who currently resides

>But how much did your ribs hurt after seeing her handing out "souvenir pens"
>on a silver platter? She was acting insane. I think she used to be competent
>(of being a liberal) but she's losing it. Not all Democratic voters think
>it's too funny to see the 3rd in command act like such a fool.
I love collecting pens. Don't you? Would have made a wonderful
addition to my collection. Although getting refills might have been
a problem.
>Trump does it too, to some extent. He acts silly during interviews once in a
>while, but not during hearings, and especially not during hearings that are
>important to his party.
Silly? Trump's mantra to "Make America Great Again" rings hollow when
using a pen made in China to sign bills. The pen he uses is a Cross
brand, specifically made for him by the company. All of its pens are
manufactured in China.
>It annoyed me, not because she's a liberal crowd-pleaser, but because I want
> my elected officials to act their age at certain times.
Act their ages? Donald J. Trump is 74 years old, and often acts
as a small child. Nancy Pelosi is almost 80 years old, and often
acts far wiser than her age. Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders are
youngsters compared to her, but neither of them served in the House.
>LL>The first rule of politics is to get elected. The second rule of

JFK tried to do that, and look what happened to him.
>LL>and earth. But like all politicians, he has only his own selfish
>LL>interest in mind and will do what is best for Moscow Mitch.
>What incentive does he have to help Trump?
Trump's threat is to primary those who dump on him. And those who
have tried to cross him have paid dearly for their actions. So they
know he means the business.
>If he (or any other senate members) act like their Trump's attorneys, then

It is not the news media Republicans have to worry about.
If the Republican Senators stick by Trump, it will be a bloodbath
come November. Democrats will retain the House, and win the Senate.
Along with capturing the White House. Won't that be fun?
>LL>Does that mean no Senators will be biased or prejudiced in regards

What is in their own best interest? To get themselves elected,
or re-elected. Not to bail out an incumbent president, even if
that president happens to be of the same party.
A Republican Senator, such as Lindsey Graham, might talk the talk.
But when push comes to shove, will he walk the walk? His own job
is on the line. Especially those who are up for re-election this
November.
>LL>After being convicted and removed from office, he can win the
>LL>election in November to get his old job back. And then win a second
>LL>term in 2024. This would make him the second president to win three
>LL>terms in office.
>
>You've given me something to smile about now! Thanks!
I have often wondered what would happen if a president dared
to run for a third consecutive term. How would the courts rule
on the matter, given the 22nd Amendment? My guess is the courts
would allow the people to decide, choosing not to get in the way.
I find it antidemocratic to disallow an individual from running
for public office due to term limits.
Perhaps Donald J. Trump will take a cue from Vladimir Putin and
change the Constitution to allow him to stay in office for an
unlimited number of terms. Imagine what it would be like for the
three amigos (Putin, Xi, and Trump) to be President-for-Life.
>LL>The main role of conservatives is to hold society together.
>I respect what you're saying here,
Conservatism is not a political party, but a philosophy.
In a political context, it is meant as keeping the existing
society intact, the glue that keeps it together.
>but for me, conservative means we defend our sovereignty and put our country
> first, unlike my definition of liberalism which is in favor of

Two competing ideas are in conflict today -
Liberalism
Illiberalism
Liberalism grew out of the ashes of WWII.
With so many countries having been destroyed by war,
it was up to the US and former USSR to rebuild.
A Cold War followed for decades.
After liberalism took root, antibodies took root.
The antibodies of illiberalism.
Today, those antibodies have gained strength,
and remain on the rise.
But all is not lost.
Joe Biden will save the world for liberalism.
He is the lord and savior of all.
Hey, he did say he would find a cure for cancer.
>LL>There is Amy. At 5'4", the cameras sometimes roll over her
>LL>head and people forget she is there.
>Republicans and Democrats both tell lies from time to time, but the problem
> I have with Democrats is that I've caught them in too many lies.
Oh, come now. Politicians never lie. They are just more
expedient with the truth.
>It's not just Obama, but just yesterday I caught my local assemblywoman
> lying directly to me via email.
You don't understand. She is a professional, and knows what
she is doing. Remember, she got herself elected, and knows how
to do it again.
>She didn't have to reply to my email, but she did, and maybe
>she thought I was stupid because, who knows, maybe I had some typos or
> something, but I had insight into the issue that was personally delivered

Looks like you put yourself on her radar screen. That could
mean one of two things -
* She loves you, and wants you on her staff
* She hates you, and wants to keep an eye on you
Either way, you win. So smile, you're on Candid Camera.
>Can Amy tell the truth to her citizens?
Like George Washington, she can never tell a lie.
