Staff at an elementary school in Idaho donned “Mexican” costumes and built a “wall” with Make America Great written on it and imagined bald eagles are blue.

And, completely unrelated…
And they are in charge of the education of our next generation. On the other hand, it is Idaho, one of the most racist states in America. Oh, who am I kidding. They ALL are becoming the most racist state in America. That is what we should be called. 😦 Every day it is something new and similar. I’m so ashamed.

We live in a grim time. But keep in mind that the majority of Americans are disgusted by the MAGA cult and this majority votes.

This news story solidified my growing belief that the republicans are going to mop-up in this election. People like to be racist. I’m sure these teachers and millions of others are groaning that opposition to their racist stunt is “political correctness.”
It’s so satisfying to point a finger at someone else. Trump has done a great job at making sure that someone is Latinos. Latinos=Bad. Democrats like Latinos. Democrats = Bad. Democracy is falling apart. My old boss used to talk about the coming revolution where the underclass would rise up against the bourgeois and the rich. Instead, were seeing the bourgeois rising up against everyone else.

I understand how you feel, Jeff. Still, a majority opposes this garbage and this majority votes. In all likelihood, the House will soon be controlled by the Democrats

I hope your right. I had this exact same feeling before the Presidential election and I wound up being (sadly) correct.

I hope I’m right too! It’s worth bearing in mind that Trump’s winning the presidency was a real fluke; he barely scraped by with a few thousand votes (statistically well within random variance) in three key states that put him over in the electoral college, even though he lost the popular vote by several million. He got lucky. Without Russian interference and Comey’s announcement about HRC’s emails, he would have lost.

In terms of probability, the Dems have an 80% chance of getting a majority in the House and maybe a 20% chance of getting that in the Senate.
