Front page of The Washington Post. MARK HERRING.

David -- Yesterday, when I picked up the paper, I saw Republican Sen. Amanda Chase on the front page of The Washington Post.  You might remember her from the email we sent a few days ago about her disgusting ad threatening violence against gun safety groups.  Well now she’s in the headlines again because Republicans are worried this traditionally red seat may turn blue this November. Republicans have reason to be worried. The Washington Post notes:  “Republicans are defending razor-thin majorities: the GOP has a 51-48 edge in the House and a 20-19 advantage in the chamber… If Democrats flip both chambers, they would have full control of state government for the first time in a generation.” But time is running out. Election day is just over a month away and we need to ensure Amanda Pohl has the resources she needs to win.  Bottom line: This race could come down to a few votes -- your support ... could make or break Democrats’ chances of winning a Senate majority. Thanks, Mark  David, can we count on your support...to flip this seat and help Democrats in Virginia win a Senate majority? We’re benefiting One Commonwealth PAC and Amanda Pohl -- the Democrat challenging Sen. Chase.

DAVID, it’s nice to meet you. TOM STEYER.

DONALD TRUMPS AMERICA: MY WAY, OR ELSE. PART 2. (DATE: AUGUST,29,2017)

Now the question must be asked: Why is Donald Trump behaving in a manner that would seem to be
consistent with A WANNABE STRONGMAN/DICTATOR, WHOSE IRRATIONAL BEHAVIOR ONLY SERVES THE INTERESTS OF THE EXTREMIST WING OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

1-  His Campaign Strategy was exactly what you would expect from a Candidate who sought to Divide the Country by RACIAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC LINES. There is NOTHING HE HAS SAID, OR DONE, WHILE OCCUPYING THE WHITE HOUSE THAT SHOULD SUPRISE ANYONE WHO LISTENED TO HIS CAMPAIGN RHETORIC. TRUMP IS EXACTLY WHAT WE THOUGHT HE WOULD BE...

...AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE HE SITS.

2-  He did not earn the office of PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES THROUGH A FAIR AND HONEST ELECTION.  BOGUS VOTER TOTALS HANDED HIM THE OFFICE...
(See my posts on this subject.)

...AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE HE SITS.

3-  The Traditional Republican leadership supports him as long as Their Monetary Policies are tied up with the success of the SOCIETY OF HATE AGENDA THAT FUELS THE NEW FASCIST ELEMENT OF THE GOP.  They only turn on him if Their Financial Agenda of DISREGARDING THE NEEDS OF MOST AMERICANS, TO BENEFIT THE WEALTHY, FAILS...

...AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE HE SITS.

4-  Using the Office of President to Endorse and Promote "WEALTH BUILDING" programs on the Internet...

...AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE HE SITS.

GIVEN ALL OF THE ABOVE, WHY SHOULD TRUMP HOLD BACK HIS DESIRE TO MOLD
THE U.S. INTO A COUNTRY THAT MIMICS THE BELIEFS OF HIS BIGGEST SUPPORTERS,
THE FAR RIGHT FANATICS. AFTER ALL, NO CONSEQUENCES SO FAR...
