lack of a memory. This happens ALL THE TIME and it is extremely frustrating. Social media has made it 100% worse. The GOP ALWAYS screws up the country in any way possible to further their agenda (legal or not) and then Dems are elected to clean up their mess and the cycle repeats itself. It's been like this since Raygun. "Nothing changes, everything stays the same".

I've been re-watching the PBS series "The Roosevelt's" and this BS was going on back then but to a much lesser degree.

*** I also like to relax with old TV shows that I've seen often but are still funny and true gems. I watch the old Mary Tyler Moore Show, Bob Newhart, and Dick Van Dyke too. The MTM show and Bob Newhart are available to watch for free on YouTube and Dick Van Dyke is on MeTV Sunday Nights. Thank goodness!

I like old Murphy Brown reruns a lot too. It shows how nothing has changed with our govt since 1987. So sad!
