Remember Roger Stone predicted the "Al Franken thing" hours before it broke. Rather than being a grass roots scandal such as the new ones, this one looked more like political astro-turf engineered by the self-described "dirty trickster"
I think you should have Hassan in to respond to your takes on him! A pro democracy movement should be open to ideas and let people decide for themselves.
I just can’t say it enough. Command Post is so insightful and interesting. 5 stars for Mark!
Good job Tim! You model respect while passionately and intelligently disagreeing. Unfortunately I found the Congressman’s arguments to be full of inconsistencies and his being a Democrat, I was disappointed that he could make excuses for Trump.
Maybe your respectfully arguing with him will make a difference In his thinking. I hope so. Trump is one extremely dangerous mentally ill man. That the congressman couldn’t acknowledge that only means he’ll get more dangerous. For all of us.
There are serious concerns in the country right now. Please don’t allow airtime for unserious politicians. This latest representative can get bent while he’s collecting his checks, and not being in DC.
