There were several predictions regarding the Turtle faced Turd. I remember that one! I jus tlooked for it but can not find it now. :-( Found several tho that I have listed here:
here is one :
McConnell's approval rate will drop. (Bin) march 2020
and these for April 2020: Mitch McConnell turns on Trump. He considers it necessary for his survival. (Baba)
Washington at a standstill. Mitch out of office or in the hospital. He's attending a formal event. He looks stricken. It's his first public appearance in a while. (Andrew Posey)
August 2020 : Mitch McConnell is no longer trusted in his own homeland. (Claire)
November 2020: Moscow Mitch is out. (Claire)
Mitch is physically feeble but might still be there. (Kathryn L.)
Where’s Trump? Stomach distress. Where’s McConnell? Gone. Even so, I still see old withering white men looking satisfied. (Jeanne Mayell) Predicted 10.9.19
Looks like there are more senators (republican & democrat) + senior aids that sold/traded stocks in industries related to the Coronavirus threat in late Jan/early Feb. It would be interesting to see what trump & co's brokers have been up to the last few months. Check out this politico article.

The universe has a funny way of uniting the public. Given how many people have lost money in the stock market over the last few weeks, I can't imagine Americans letting this go! All this time spent at home under quarantine has given us the gift of introspection + problem solving shenanigans. Is it possible to start a new thread on this topic?
@seaturtle26 I have a hard time imagining MM looking distraught . I thought you had to have a conscience for that.
I really do think this is going to make the Repubs look so bad they will not get out from under by the elections. They just can’t get the Lyin King to shut up! Mitch tries to go on camera and blame it on the Dems or try to play the “we all need to have respect” card . It’s almost like they think if they contradict their lies it will make it better. Regular everyday people do have a conscience and they do have empathy and most important they do remember.
I for one certainly hope what our little group has seen for them comes true. Sometimes I get so angry I want revenge but truly I really just want them to shut up and go away!
By the way, I was on YouTube a second ago and one of the card readers (I don’t know her) posted a call for a worldwide moment of prayer tomorrow at noon. I hope I can remember. I believe tomorrow is the first day of spring?
Ramming through barriers. It’s a positive. Obstructionist ways of thinking will be one of the barriers that gets rammed through. I also see Trump seated behind his desk with 5 or 6 of his diehard sycophants tightly huddled around him—they are all looking stunned and even scared by what’s steadily closing in on them and forcing them into a corner. (CDeanne) Predicted 11.11.19
In the face of the Covid-19 crisis, Trump's ingrained "obstructionist ways of thinking" are finally being more forcefully refuted and challenged (e.g., by the press, medical field experts, and leaders at all levels, including some who have, up until now, been spineless and/or in silent lock-step). When I saw the above image back in November, I couldn't imagine what could have occurred that made Trump and his innermost circle of sycophants all look so stunned, scared, and backed into a corner. Now we know. In the immediate days/weeks, I think we can expect to see a persistently outraged and ultimately successful "ramming through" of the barriers to truth, decency, democracy, and even public safety Trump has been building--lie upon lie, boast upon boast, fumble upon fumble, deception upon deception, delusion upon delusion--and it will (finally!) be this administration's undoing.
And I sincerely hope that this image, that I also saw on 11 November (for April 2020), comes true:
Large airplane flying at night, completely dark and silent inside. Air Force One. Trump is inside. He feels done. His eyes are bloodshot and he’s staring vacantly. (CDeanne) Predicted 11.11.19
Great article today in The Atlantic (five free articles/month so no pay wall).
My Favorite and accurate description of him.
Taken together, this is a massive failure in leadership that stems from a massive defect in character. Trump is such a habitual liar that he is incapable of being honest, even when being honest would serve his interests. He is so impulsive, shortsighted, and undisciplined that he is unable to plan or even think beyond the moment. He is such a divisive and polarizing figure that he long ago lost the ability to unite the nation under any circumstances and for any cause. And he is so narcissistic and unreflective that he is completely incapable of learning from his mistakes. The president’s disordered personality makes him as ill-equipped to deal with a crisis as any president has ever been. With few exceptions, what Trump has said is not just useless; it is downright injurious.
This David Remnick essay is good: How The Coronavirus Shattered Trump's Serene Confidence.
Early last week, the Trump era—which defined itself by a lurid celebration of “alternative facts,” a contempt for science, and an assault on global institutions and the “administrative state”—came to an end. Regrettably, Donald Trump remains in office, but, at least for the moment, he appears to have ceded the argument: he cannot bend the harshest realities of the world to his fantasies. The aggressive and deadly coronavirus is unimpressed and unimpeded by the bluster of a con. Yet the prolonged process of Trump’s humbling, the time it took him to recognize the power of the global pandemic that has emptied our streets, has put untold numbers of Americans at risk....read on.
The only thing I disagree with is that Trump's confidence is shattered. Trump's mental illness, malignant narcissism doesn't allow his confidence to be shattered. He lives in a fantasy world of ego aggrandizement.

Thanks for this beautiful summation. Very healing.
Regarding your vision with the bear lying on its side. I am starting to think that this is happening. Some industry sectors (for example travel) are starting to suspend trading of their shares on the stock market:
From The Australian broadcaster's (abc) live coronavirus blog today.
Travel firms have temporarily suspended trading on the Australian Stock Exchange after the Prime Minister announced the closure of non-essential businesses.Flight Centre has suspended its shares ahead of an announcement about the impact of the coronavirus on its business.
It is a fast moving blog so unfortunately, I can't link to this specific post.
Could the bear on its side be longer-term and more widespread halts in market trading?
@villager The bear, which was also stiff, looks indeed like the bear market. When I company de-lists its stocks, investopedia.com says it is often the first stage of bankruptcy. In the cruise industry, bankruptcies are expected but that is not going to be the case for industries that will be back when this virus is over. https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/05/delistingofsharesowned.asp
I had a couple of interesting things show up in the last couple of days while meditating. I have shifted to sending light and healing to the whole world due to the virus. Two of the things that I saw over the last couple of days were that they eventually have to release the children from the camps because so many people get sick - especially the guards - and they start trying to place the kids back into the community.
One of the other things that I just saw was that there will be a large black out (I saw the lights turn off over the US and back on). I sensed that it scares a lot of people but is resolved quickly.
I also got that the orange menace thinks if he keeps doing press conferences that he will ensure his re-election. He seems to think that he is convincing the people how well they are handling the situation. It does not work.
Time will tell if any of this comes true, but I thought I would include it just in case.
You were absolutely correct on the press conferences and the fact that they aren't working.
Listening to Trump drone on and on about opening our country and how we have learned SO MUCH!
Just said economic problems are bigger than the original problem..."We can't have the cure be worse than the problem." They showed us who had said that on Fox earlier. He is a parrot on auto pilot.
Yes, dying is not as bad as the stock market crashing.
We need a hook and/or a drop floor.
Arguing now for opening up parts of New York. Dear God.
And repeating, "We can do two things at once." Wonder where he heard that one? It is making no sense. He is just winging it now. How long until the White House issues corrections?
It's like that Will Ferrell movie where the character keeps saying, "When in Rome..." but it's never applicable to the situation.
I can't even begin to imagine how someone who has lost a loved one in the early rounds here of this virus feels listening to him talk about $$$.
Generally I feel either nothing or mild annoyance listening to him. Today I feel a tsunami of grief building in the collective. I can feel the anger of others listening. I also feel the confusion of the newly dead, especially the young ones.
Thank God for the woman scientist/physician who keeps talking about social distancing. Notice she is not touching the podium. Her hands were folded. Now she is talking again, using her hands, keeping them well above the podium.
The cherry on the top: He is asking her if someday will we ever sit close again? She is doing a really good job steering the focus, and just giving great factual info. Not even answering that question.
very interesting in his "Update" today... No Dr Fauci.... No Surgeon General... Billy Goat Barr was there ..Trump started out very subdued before hitting his stride.... no longer calling it the "Chinese Virus" and that he expects to have us back working by the 31st... that we are getting "huge shipments on their way to New York of Plaquenil and Remsdivir".. and we are getting back to work - that we can't let a medical issue become a economy issues.... and we are going to get going back to work "very quickly"
SMH... pardon me if I don't believe a word coming from his mouth.

Yes -- I feel that too. As more people become sick, we'll feel that grief and anger even stronger. I flipped on MSNBC, only to see who was included in the press conference, then immediately turned it off. I can't stand watching or listening to him. My husband flipped it on while I stepped away; as soon as I heard the Mad King speaking, I began cussin' up a storm. I've developed quite the mouth the past 3+ years.
I noticed that Dr. Fauci was missing. What the hell was Bart doing there?
Yes, T is unraveling, but I'd prefer not to see it. I just want him the hell out of the WH.
I too feel the grief Of the collective. I am sending love, doing yoga, meditating, trying to keep positive and then BAM I feel such grief. I allow it to flow through then I get back up. Thanks for being here y'all
