      @@latebluebird The Average American is not stupid. However most who call themselves Republicans, and Conservatives have been totally, and skillfully targeted with very well thought out propaganda. The majority of Republicans in Congress have sold out to what I call the " FOSSIL FUEL CARTEL"! www.wmo.int founded in 1873 / www.noaa.gov / are just a few of the very respected Scientific oranizations. They have been submitting their findings to our Government for years now. So far Bush Jr. and Trump and most Repuclicans in Congress and some Democrats have failed to act due to corruption. As I 100% service connected disabled retired combat veteran, this is not what I fought for, nor my buddies, some who are now dead due to combat action, and exposure to Nuclear Radiation. Trump and Bush Jr to me are simply DRAFT DODGERS, who want and wanted to deploy our troops for the wrong reasons for the most part. Sadly most Conservative Americans, backed this burnout of our troops. It's easy to send troops to war when you know that your kids will not be drafted. I am counting the months until hopefully responsible candidates will take over in DC.

    That was an incredible interview with Mr. Daniels. After watching that cringe worthy interview with Omarosa last night it was so nice to hear an intelligent, thoughtful, insightful guest like Jeff Daniels. I hope that he is right in that the good, honest, patriotic Americans doing their jobs in the FBI will eventually catch trump and his minions up in their lies and felonious behavior and we can hopefully start to rebuild our country and maybe begin to be respected and not laughed at globally.

    This goes out to our government officials: please keep being our sword and shield, please keep defending our country. Because once this present does all the damage he can to America we will need you all to defend us. I know the president has lessened you in the media and stated that you are our enemy we the people know this is not true. I understand how hard is it to do your job when you are being hate for doing it but like a good parent you must or America will fall and our enemies will win. In time this man will be out of office and we can start to rebuild and it will rise once again in all it’s glory because the people are what makes America great no matter how hard a dictator try’s to tell you otherwise. So thank you from one of the US citizen you help protect.
