Spineless to do what she’s doing now.



Faux outrage. MO was stung by the Ferguson riots. She has to toe the line on this issue or her whole state will blow up.

Thanks.

Nice party you got there. No doubt you are working feverishly to change it. Have you lifted a finger to change the tide in your party?

You are correct, whenever dealing with her you must set expectations suitably low. She’s somewhere between a flip-flopper and not to be trusted

Unemployment rate is down to 13.3%, 2.5 million new jobs added. Seems fishy to me...

We lost what like 30 million? Still an impossibly far way to go.

The tweet storm that coincided with this is making me believe it's coordinated.

Wonder if republicans try to dig in more to oppose additional stimulus off of this news

Though I doubt trump wants them to for whatever that’s worth

Wonder if they are somehow including furloughed workers in the "new jobs" category. Those, of course, aren't new jobs.

How? I don't find anything wrong with his quote. There is a small percentage of people in this country who are "not very good people" and are "deplorables." Why do we have to sugar coat that we have blatant racists and xenophobes in our country? Why shouldn't we appeal to the people who have a shred of morality?

Genuinely curious.

You're right - these people need to be called out. Although its a free country, they do not represent the ideals of this country shouldn't be viewed as acceptable by the majority of americans.
