Here's what I want all Democrats to know

before this election season goes any farther, and especially before we are in the GE race if Joe is the nominee...

Some probably already know, but I’ve talked to quite a few well-informed voters who did not:

Edited/updated for clarification:

I'm dismayed that some have thought I was taking a "swing" at Joe for posting this. For heaven's sake, I have been a Joe fan for many years. I caucused for him in 2008, and it was my great thrill to shake his hand and tell him that at a rally in January here in Iowa before the February caucus. I posted it because I have encountered, from both sides on other boards and on FB, comments just as is mentioned in the subtitle that Joe exhibits signs of dementia. It's actually one of the Rs new lines of attack! It upsets me to no end to see those comments, born of ignorance (although the R comments are born of malice). There are many Dems who are not aware of this, IMO, heroic feature of Joe’s character. This article is something others might find useful in their encounters with ignorance going forward. Certainly no offense was intended, and I apologize if any was taken.

Twitter to label deepfakes and other deceptive media

(Reuters) - Twitter (TWTR.N) said on Tuesday it would start applying a label to tweets containing synthetic or deceptively edited forms of media, as social media platforms brace for a potential onslaught of misinformation ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

The company also said it would remove any deliberately misleading manipulated media likely to cause harm, including content that could result in threats to physical safety, widespread civil unrest, voter suppression or privacy risks.

Mike Bloomberg should just buy Fox News.

It would be a big service to the nation

Seriously, didn't everyone see the handshake snub coming?

I recall when impeachment first began that he said “I don’t consider her as Speaker anymore. “

My newest bumpersticker designs:

These are IA state specific, but you may appreciate them:


Time to put Grassley out to pasture. (for 2022)

Joni has not Ernst your vote.

End Steve King's reign now!


My previously posted design:

"I like a President who hasn't been impeached."


A good one I just heard on MSNBC:

Donald Trump: Just get over him!

Let's be perfectly clear:

....This likely acquittal is NOT EXONERATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LeMar Alexander said it, and I just heard Santorum say it on CNN: The Dems PROVED their case, but it does not rise to the level of impeachment. What they are saying is that IT'S NOT EXONERATION.

The criminal in the WH can NOT claim exoneration!!!!

Never let him say otherwise....

Time to boycott SOTU address.....

No one (certainly not any Democrats) should watch it.

Have it be the SOTU with the least viewership in history.

It will drive him nuts!

WOW!! Ernst's question: She wanted to know the relevance

...for WH attorneys of a possible witness.

Was she telegraphing that she might be interested in having witnesses?

Feeling the heat, Joni? How many of my fellow Iowans have also contacted you??

Will the impeachment trial last beyond the scheduled date of the State of the Union Address?

I’d hate to see him taking a victory lap or turning it into one of his rally performances. Although it would be his lunacy on full display....a sure way of turning many off....
