Do the words "petulant child" mean anything to you? I prefer "imbecile"

Adam Schiff notes that advertising publicly that high level officials were traveling to a war zone is kind of unprecedented.

More evidence that Trump doesn't give a shit about anything but himself, and that there's nothing too low for him and his enablers/defenders, i.e., republicans:

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) stood by President Donald Trump after he barred House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) from going on her overseas trip, widely seen as retaliation to her State of the Union letter.

The games politicians play at the taxpayers expense. Embarrassing.

Threatening the life of an elected official who is 2nd in line for the presidency seems more than just a "game."

Pelosi pronounces "hurricane" in an odd way.....not sure I trust someone who pronounces hurricane(s) like that.

dolo doesn't like what Shirley has to say. Tells her to go sit in the corner.

I'm betting she persists.

I do not.

He's also got a good 1 where he slurs the "United shhhtates".

Also, I totally fucked up....it wasn't pelosi, it was Elizabeth Warren who was pronoucning hurricanes as "hurricuns" on CNN last night. It was bizarre. She was in Puerto Rico campaigning (unofficially).

Although it's entirely possible her tribe of native Americans pronounces hurricanes in a different way, so maybe it's just her native American accent.

Illini - I actually saw/heard Warren speak about Puerto Rico while in Puerto Rico. Not too sure why she struggled with the pronunciation of hurricane/s but I do know that she is a lot more intelligent than I am.
Not that you need an example of how dumb I am - but I was wondering what Warren's true purpose was to visit Puerto Rico - and I am going to admit that I completely forgot that the residents of Puerto Rico do not get a vote in the Presidential election.

They don't pronounce hurricanes as hurricuuns anywhere that I'm aware of.

At least you admit to provincialism.
