leadership. I'm, not for a second. Pay better attention, Bob, they're ruthless power-hungry cretins. Have been for a long time.

enabler himself for a long time. Just sayin' ...

Gee Bob, if only there was someone in the company town press who knew some of these leaders and could call them out, by name, for their cowardice. Know anyone in the political punditry who knows a lot of Republican leaders? Maybe you could put a bug in their ear? It would have to be someone closer to the end than the beginning of his career, rich enough that he isn't dependent on the usual sources of Rich Guy Welfare.

Know anyone like that, Bob?

grifting for more money.

These rhetorical questions are a dodge. I've decided not to buy, or even read his book.

After the election nobody will care, they'll be so much dirt coming out. People will be more likely to talk then, they'll be a lot of talking. Woodward's book will be irrelevant, IMO.

Have they been the last 4 years? They like him and won’t change their minds about him.

They allowed a washed up *reality* host to bully and belittle them into cringeworthy submission.

more have to start speaking out. The AMA and doctors across the country should be condemning him for his remarks regarding Covid-19.

Hey, David! Where have you been the past three and a half years?

to wait for Nov. 3. All the weaknesses of our democratic republic have been exposed by Putin's puppet, Trump and the GOP. We must find a way to fix it for the future.

The real leaders, that is, not the party apparatchiks.

And they're not guests. They're the hosts, the ranters themselves.

The GOP outsourced its messaging to them ages ago, and they found that there was no reason to limit 2-Minute Hates to two minutes. Not when they could do them 24/7. After all, what downside was there for guys who get paid to rant into a microphone and don't actually have to govern anything?

The country club types thought they could whip up the rubes, and still keep them under control. The rubes started electing themselves to state legislatures, and then into higher office, and the country club types have become merely the froth on a cesspool.

Some of these hate radio jockeys even get in office. That is how Pence started out, if recollection serves....

in a month.

Don't doubt that. Everyone's sick to death of it.

They get paid big bucks to pontificate, but they have no action verbs in their vocabulary.
Had it with "pundits".

He's basically rabid. He just doesn't know it, b/c his "doctor" is too much of a weakling to tell him.

Especially when they were all jockeying for position without a mask in front of tRUMP's blowhole?

at this point, i can only hope enough of them get really sick and hospitalized before the Amy Covid Barret confirmation vote to prevent another monstrosity. but you know, 2020 and all. we should be so lucky.

That works for me.

MIA, just like they have been for the past 4 years.

Emphasis on the moron.

Woodward: Who told you that? (about massive deaths)
Trump’s: I did. I told me that.

Gergen saying that means all of establishment DC is thinking that.

I have heard him speak in the past and he is generally spot on.

I'm in a resentful mood. Many, many of us knew that Trump would be a disastrous president, but for some reason a bunch of "leading journalists" thought the whole thing was funny and enabled him to win the White House.

I'm not interested in their panic now.

Gergen in particular.

You and I knew the man was mad from the start, why did these ripe shits not?

That’s a new one for me. Just woke the little parrot sleeping on my shoulder with my laughter!

He has $420M in mob loans coming due. It's either he kills himself trying to win and stave off the inevitable or his insanity pays off and he's able to fend off the mob for 4 more years.

He has no choice at this point and he'll bite whomever it takes to get to his goal.

These people still think Rockefeller Republicans are a thing.

Bless Woodward.

Wolf was about as emotional as I've ever seen him when he was asking, "can't anyone stop this (madman)?"

There has not been leadership since trump. There is kowtowing, brown nosing, ass kissing and soul selling since trump came along. Woodward is no better than the rest of the media trying to make a story from shit stew. Our system should be able to stop him. Relying on his family or inner circle to stop him is insane. The system has, so far, failed. We are in the grips of a madman. What are we going to do about it?

still...

Even longer ago than before he formally got into politics.

Basically hoping for a Democratic pilot to take control before we run out fuel and crash land.

That's where they are.

What??? NOTHING???

Joy Reid is tearing him to pieces as we speak.

We are in fact in the grips of a madman.

We’re in the grips of madMEN. He couldn’t get away with it without their complicity. He continues to play a game of brinksmanship to divide the country or at least attempt to.

It just returned to the White House.

Glad to help, Bob.

And the GOP will most likely do nothing .

That asshole just gets worse with each passing hour. Trump is bad for my blood pressure

They are giving trump, with his personality traits steroids. Here are just a few of the side effects: Aggression, agitation, anxiety
irritability, mental depression, mood changes, nervousness, trouble thinking, speaking, or walking.

The GOP needs to 25 45.

If Trump goes down, the RepubliCONs Leadership and maybe the entire party goes down.

Most, if not all of the RepubliCONs Leadership are as involved in the corruption and graft as Trump and his family are........

There is a whole shit load of Russian, Saudi, and Chinese money involved in controlling all of them............

Hasn't been for years. Decades maybe. The only people who can do something about this is us. Vote, goddamn it!

Just fascists & mob bosses.

I think Trump faked his whole Convid episode. He needed a big distraction from his disastrous debate with Biden
and his recent tax ($750) revelations.

his shoulders to get a full breath.
I'm glad he is miserable. Hope the infection gets much worse.

Moscow.

They have dreams of a dynasty - if only to indefinitely postpone their prosecution.

Inner circle? That's not necessarily cabinet but rogues like Hannity, Conway, Hicks. If the cabinet had any kind of collective conscience, they would have 25'd him two years ago.

I accept that I'm a distant observer, but this is a systemic problem. If it can happen once, it can happen again.

Same fing mess we have been in for 4 years now. Vote this madness out!

Political issues and money: McConnell
Political propaganda: Fox Noise (TV) and National Hate Radio

The republican reptilian party is what got us in this mess, and then made it worse by the day.

They screwed up last time they had the white house, and almost threw the country into a depression, after ignoring intelligence on 9/11 and starting several wars that had nothing to do with 9/11.

The time before that, when they had the white house, George HW Bush brought us Iran/Contra. When is this country going to quit electing republicans?

They're a fucking disaster!!!

Only exaggerate his mental and health issues making him unfit for office now. All republicans should have to have consequences from them not removing him from office now. Especially McConnell, Graham, Cornyn, and others.
