Maybe it just hasn't rolled out to the online paper yet.

"Democracy Dies" is truthful but too negative IMO, assuming the death is a given, though perhaps it's my stubborn optimism getting in the way. One thing good about Trump; he's not a sneaky dictator wannaabe, trying to trick everyone into his agenda, he's right out front screaming it from the hilltop. <br /><br />SandyKAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-14523746399582654552017-02-23T09:08:31.765-06:002017-02-23T09:08:31.765-06:00I too hope that Trump lives to be 90 (and to see h...I too hope that Trump lives to be 90 (and to see his name a synonym for fraud) because his death (of apoplexy of course, live on TV) would launch a never-ending parade of nonsensical finger-pointing speculation and even a possible government takeover by his military appointees, whose trigger fingers are no doubt just starting to itch right now. <br /><br />johntatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10088632798195131329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-40193684913796850492017-02-23T08:19:27.488-06:002017-02-23T08:19:27.488-06:00That's not a bad choice by the Huffington Post...That's not a bad choice by the Huffington Post.

I'll say it again, "My 12 year old is watching 'Meet the Press!" He is engaged in politics at a time in his life when all I cared about was sleeping in. People are demanding, and cramming into town hall meetings. People are marching in the streets in unprecedented numbers. Personally don't think democracy is dead; I think it's waking up from a long slumber.<br />AlbanyParkAlumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11355674665536019455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-91611769643000557462017-02-23T06:31:26.482-06:002017-02-23T06:31:26.482-06:00to me the trump administration is bringing the lon...to me the trump administration is bringing the long slow death of democracy thats been going on in the darkness since the patriot act , out into the sunlight. with three generals our national security triumverit . their saying : voters? we don't need no stinking voters! the military takeover of our government may be just around the corner. what can the press do to stop that?FMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829632906445535928noreply@blogger.com
