Country over party, dumb*cks.

Therefore, I believe I should be exempt from providing my employees with ANY form of healthcare coverage. Can any Republicans give me a logically consistent reason why I shouldn't be able to force my new-found, stupid beliefs on my employees, based on your opposition to the birth control mandate?
You mean you should have the right to not offer health insurance to your employees?
We should just put everyone on Medicare and then companies won't have to spend millions administering health care plans.
I know for a fact that the American corporation I work for prefers to hire in Canada and Europe for just that reason.

Trump won BECAUSE of country over party. The people voted against the two-party establishment (as much as allowed in this case). It was an epic strategic failure from the Democrats to put party over country and push her forward. Bernie would be POTUS right now.

He lost the popular vote, BIGLY. The minority party won over country. Try to keep up, okay.
Trump back down to new lows in popularity per rcp: 39.6
even that rasmussen poll that trumpers love has his approval down to 43.
Now if dems can win that seat in GA in 3 weeks the Repubs may start running.

No other creature (non-humans) saves for the future. . . . Reading comprehension is not one of your skills.

Huh? The party OF minorities lost. Try to keep up.
And about that whole "IF IF IF 70,000 votes flipped in PA, MI, WI blah, blah, blah" thing.....
Don't forget Trump also almost won Minnesota (~10,000 votes, much closer than expected) and New Hampshire (`2700 votes). It was a solid victory for the Trumpster.

Some animals do save for the future. For example, squirrels store nuts for winter.
Any animal that builds a home can be said to be preparing for the future.
What was this about again?

Actually my reading comprehension is vastly superior to your own.
Further, the simple fact is that stating without evidence that no other creature saves for the future is nothing more than vacuous conjecture based on a combination of ignorance and insecurity.
It has been correctly stated that "Man is the only creature so insecure about himself that he constantly seeks out reasoning that will show how truly special he is."
Now, you might want to learn a bit about other species. Hopefully that will reduce the volume of your ignorance-based posts.
With regard to Trump's election and subsequent actions, I've wondered about just what kind of achievement I have witnessed. In the age of President Donald Trump, Russian meddling, and the rise of a racist and gullible right, here fell Bernie Sanders' full-throated liberal plea for a different world, and most definitely a different POTUS.
Trumpettes are NOT Americans!
Exthrower you still can't force yourself To say you trust and respect trump?I don't blame you. It would be stupid.

Why didn't Trump do what every other candidate did in the interest of transparency and show his tax forms?
Why is trump weakening NATO, who's interest does that serve.
Why did trump wait 18 days before firing Flynn?
Things smell pretty bad. Something is rotten.
Why don't you grow up and accept your defeat.....
Reminds me of Linford Christie being kicked out of his race and refusing to leave the track...Pouting and sulking and acting childish.....

for the record, the original post was mine and I deliberately said that humans save for 30 years in the future and doubted other creatures do that.
Of course animals build homes for reproducing - that's not 30 years.

Comey is set to testify possibly next week about how Trump pressured him to let up on the investigation of Flynn.
http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/31/politics/fbi-comey-testimony/index.html
Will be awesome...a dude who keeps dated memos of meetings with people so no one can say he did this after he was fired as retaliation. Comey has all the credibility and Trump has zero. I actually don't mind letting Trump and his crooked staff twist in the wind for a while, but as it is dangerous to have him in office even one more minute, I will hope for getting him gone as soon as possible and for any reason (collusion, obstruction of justice, criminal financial dealings, etc.).

Collusion wont apply to Trump or his administration. Look up the definition of collusion, it couldn't have happened in this context. He won't be impeached either as you ultimately need 2/3 super-majority in the Senate. Outside possibility of obstruction, but it will be a stretch to deem it an impeachable offense. Be prepared to accept this and prepare for 3 3/4 years of incompetence.

I'm specifically referring to Trumpers. There are plenty of conservatives choosing country over party. This is not about the election. This about the having a corrupt administration with direct ties to the Kremlin. This is not about open communication with Russia. This is about treason. Trump and his associates are traitors. Trumpers are too blind to see the obvious.
Actually they are not blind. They're very aware of prioritizing the infliction of pain on liberals over being patriotic to our country. They have no qualms about this, even though the net result of doing so comes at their own expense.
I am prepared for Trump to stay in office through the end of his term, but if the facts come out that he did collude (and yes it could have happened) with the Russians or has obstructed justice or has acted in a criminal way that is so very obvious to everyone, I believe Senate Republicans will vote to oust him...has to be very convincing evidence though. Trump is such a crook that nothing would surprise me with this investigation.
