(61,752 posts)Maybe he's had a change of heart and maybe it's just talk. Either way, he helped set in motion something that won't be so easily stopped.
Sometimes sorry isn't good enough.

(13,527 posts)been for a couple of months now). Change of heart, or just deeply appalled by every single thing LOSER 45 has done and stands for? - I don't know...maybe he needs to be experienced in person, yard, to get the full effect of his articulate denunciation of all things drumpf -

(53,971 posts)calls for the white supremacists in his admin to be fired.
He doesn't bite his tongue. He calls Bannon and Gorka by name and says if they are not removed by trump, trump will be removed.
He's gained my respect. He's part of the old Republican party establishment (I usually use the term repug), which trump and his racists consultants aren't.
I think the wheels are beginning to turn behind the scenes to get this white supremacist administration out of the White House.

(24,642 posts)for sure, yardwork. I lump him into the "the enemy of my enemy" faction although I think we would be crazy to consider him a friend. It is going to take cooperation from republicans to get trump out and I hope Pence as well. If there are some sane voices in the wilderness, I will take them in hopes they will influence tptb to move.

(23,599 posts)Mr ethics is denying all of the de franchising of the people of color and denying them their right to vote by his lovely party with their dirty tricks.
Just because many republican politicians say they hate nazis doesn't mean they aren't doing a lot of horrible things to people of color.

(26,352 posts)Enemy of my enemy. Ok. I can get on board.
But tossing underwear up on stage? What the fuck?
Where was this guy when his boss was prosecuting an illegal war, outing CIA agents, running illegal propaganda campaigns (NCLB/Armstrong Williams) and setting off phony terror code alerts to win an election??

(615 posts)When going through law school she had him as a prof. She said he was excellent then and she has a lot of admiration for him despite being diametrically opposed politically.

(17,009 posts)He's not going to stand for a monster like Trump define his party. Everything he says makes sense and is the right thing.
