I can't remember now where I saw it, but apparently Blumenthal is following the lead of Schatz in placing holds on Trump's nominees.

Wish Schumer would catch that virus. I'm at the point now, when I see him mumbling in Congress with his glasses trembling on the tip of his nose, I think "There's that old c*nt."

As seen on a protest sign…I’d call him a cunt but he lacks depth and warmth.

In my family, we call him "Thrush."

Because he's an irritating c*nt. . .

Who's over? Over what? We've shown a thousand times already that nothing can or will stop him. We signed up for a suicide pact, we became so invested in a duopolistic republic that we cannot and will not pursue anything else. We're a drunk, we have to hit rock bottom if we have any chance of something better.

The MAGAs have no monopoly on delusion. We're trapped in a mahout-string reality of our own making, reinforced by generations of peace and prosperity. A baby elephant cannot break a piece of twine a mahout ties to its leg. When that baby grows to an 8-ton bull, it does not question that the twine will still hold it. So it is with us.

Way to late. Look at the Democrats voting for Trmp's deplorables.
