@triciact, I rarely look at him, but I took a glance when he was walking through the House Chamber, being greeted by his lemmings. He looked really bad to me. I agree that it was beyond sedation. I had to look away. I think it is what @frank described under the "The Unraveling ..." thread:
"However, recently, I look at him and see him engulfed in that same energy like it's being bottled up and he's now suffocating on it."
I'll tell you what stops Rethugs from commenting on 'How horrible it was when Nancy shredded Turd's speech' at the State of the Union Address. Just tell them NOTHING is compared with DT and company tearing up our constitution and crowning Turd 'king Dictator of the USA' with that sham senate trial. And then add "You SHOULD be furious that the Rethugs have allowed Turd to change our constitiution without our consent. THAT is what you SHOULD be FURIOUS about, not Nancy." --THAT conversations shuts them UP quicker than ANYTHING.
What where the dates that were predicted in this month to be significant?
1/31, 2/7, 2/14?
Are any of you all seeing that being the case still?
If T and Republicans thinks the Ukrainian scandal is over they are mistaken:
The House impeachment managers collectively wrote a Washington Post op-ed that’s well worth your time, though it included a line that stood out for me as especially noteworthy.
Throughout the trial, new and incriminating evidence against the president came to light almost daily, and there can be no doubt that it will continue to emerge in books, in newspapers or in congressional hearings.
I hope this happens soon...
Had the GOP-led Senate held a more legitimate trial, it’d be easier to dismiss Democratic efforts to get the whole truth. But McConnell & Co. took that option off the table, clearing the way for an investigation that needs to continue.
@triciact just saw your post. I'm on vacation this week.
Yes, I was shocked when I saw him walking in at SOTU.
I believe he's fearful of dying. That is my take. And it's just making him increasingly angry, which is hurting his health even more. Vicious circle. He clearly knows that he's fading rapidly. His energy is very stagnant and stuck. I sense he's imploding mentally, emotionally and physically. My feeling is still the same. Advancing dementia. I'm expecting a major health event shortly. Americans will then see a very rapid decline that no one will be able to deny.
Reposting @Laughing Pudding's video here which s(he) posted in the poems/video's/music we love thread. It is so good to see the truth told when it needs to be told, even if many do not heed it.

Midnight in Washington - Impeachment Zero Hour
Don't buy the storyline that nothing we do matters. WE MATTER. -- @laughing pudding
@jeanne-mayell - WOW!! That was such a powerful video Jeanne - thank you so much for sharing it!!
I live in a red state and my Turd suppporting friends vow to vote for Turd again because their 401Ks are 'outstanding' and they still support him (blindly)!!'. It's very depressing talking with them as I know their shallowness which leads them to support Turd will eventually drown them. And there is no telling what will happen when the fake stock market bubble crashes and Turd has to leave office due to his health imploding - I just know it won't be pretty as our country will be in chaos.
And I cannot look at Turd or go into his energy - even with St. Michael's the blue cloak of protection - as his energy is like a zombie - it's hard to shake off. Of course I have looked at his numbers - he's going into a 3 essence in June - which normally is good, but since he is so negative, this will only cause him even further erosion of his reputation - world wide and at home. And I agree his health is failing - both mentally and physically. I can see that just by looking at him, especially his eyes. In March he will be in a '9' month which is a completition month. That's all I have to say about Turd.
I so appreciate everyones comments, wisdom and support here. It has helped me get through this incredibly dark time. So for now I'm just going to concentrate on sending prayers of protection to Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff and the other Democrats fighting this nasty evilness in our country. We are literally in a war between good and evil.
@numerologist Donald Trump is not the first person to manipulate the stock market. It's been going on for decades. There are many people who don't care about Trump's moral values. As long as unemployment is low and the stock market is doing very well they think everything is fine. The stock market is very much in a bubble and all bubbles eventually burst and cause a crash. When that occurs remains to be seen. Donald Trump is going much farther than past presidents in trying to compromise the independence of the Federal Reserve Board so it will do what Trump thinks is best for himself politically.
In this political climate, Republicans who stand firmly against Trump, are heroes. This editorial in the Boston Globe, about two Republican Massachusetts former governors Bill Weld and Mitt Romney is a helpful encouragement to GOP leaders who are disgusted with Trump but afraid to stand up to him publicly.
According to the reporter, many GOP leaders are willing to disclose off the record their disapproval of Trump, but afraid to say it publicly. It is clear that if the political tide can turn against the man ever so slightly, the whole house of cards will collapse quickly. I am looking forward to that day.

Again, we have to fight like hell to make this coming election go through. We need to get everyone to vote and help those thrown off the rolls to get back on.
My husband is a very quiet man. He doesn't think he's psychic, but I do. When I was the one doing readings years ago, and hanging out with my dear departed friend who was an outstanding psychic and medium, he felt odd about it. One day we drove (when we were first married) in an area he was not familiar with. He said he felt a cemetery would be around the corner soon and he felt activity there! I was aghast since I felt like saying "who are you and where is my husband?". I never knew he saw spirits or felt spirit before. He didn't like to admit this. So, (I know you are wondering what does this have to do with anything on this topic).
Last night my husband suddenly told me he felt March would be the start of his final downfall. (specifically March 26-31). He said March 26 and March 31 were significant dates. OK so I thought I would put this out here and we shall see, but it happens to coincide with what I was feeling (that March and April would be significant about T) and your post.
I hope you are right. Trump and his forces seem unstoppable right now. No matter what happens, Moscow Mitch will protect him. His base will protect him. If we hit a recession, I suspect they would still support him. If he raped and murdered an infant on national television, I suspect there would be those who would justify his behavior or (God forbid) cheer him on. But do we know what type of event will occur? Will it be another investigation? More corruption? Trump's health deteriorating to the point he has to step aside?
The Republican party has unleashed a monster and are doing everything they can to keep him in power. Is it a bad thing if I secretly hope for an event that will silence Trump supporters? No, not something that kills them or harms them, but something that makes them so ashamed that they are no longer able to exercise their cruelty without facing severe consequences for it. I doubt a blue wave election will do anything. We had one in 2018, and Trump and the Republicans still haven't learned.
If I could hope for anything, it would be that something would happen that Trumpers could not defend. Something that diminished their powers to where the Republican party either expels them for the good of all or be regulated to the status of a third party without any power, being made powerless. But I can't foresee any event that will make this happen. A blue wave in 2020? Trump and his supporters have already messed with the Iowa caucus, and are planning to mess with the elections at every turn. Even if they failed and lost spectacularly, I imagine that he would contest the election and encourage his supporters to turn guns on the rest of us. And as I said before, no scandal will change their minds, and no hardships will change their minds.
What can we do? I am discouraged. If it wasn't for Romney's vote, I would lose all hope for the Republicans. (Also, I find it ironic that while all the Republicans gave pathetic answers for the reasoning behind their votes, Romney was the only one who said that he felt it was his duty to God and the truth to vote for what was right. So much for Republicans being the party of God.)
We know there will be more wrongdoing just as surely as we know that the sun will rise tomorrow. But the question is whether or not Trump will be neutralized. Because as long as Trump remains in office, we are all at risk. And I don't see a scandal suddenly making a difference. I don't even see a health scare making a difference. I don't see anything making a difference.
There is nothing Twitler can do or say that would change their cultish support. They are brainwashed. I've heard so many people say that we shouldn't compare them to Nazis because they haven't done what the Nazis did. I call bs on that. Idolize the ideology, idolize the actions. That's who and what they are. Look at Stephen Miller.
A quote from Gandhi was posted the other day saying that throughout history, all dictators fall. T. will too.
Might this story cut through the fog, at last?
“Al-Qaeda attacked the U.S. on 9/11 and we went to war with Iraq. If this report is true, ISIS attacked the U.S. and we nearly went to war with Iran.”
“In a “bombshell” revelation that calls into question one of the Trump administration’s stated justificiations for assassinating Iranian Gen. Qasem Suleimani—a move that nearly sparked a region-wide military conflict—Iraqi intelligence officials told the New York Times that they believe ISIS, not an Iran-linked militia, was likely responsible for the Dec. 27 rocket attack that killed an American contractor at an air base near Kirkuk, Iraq.”
According to the reporter, many GOP leaders are willing to disclose off the record their disapproval of Trump, but afraid to say it publicly. @jeanne-mayell
Along those same lines, attached is an interesting NY Times op ed by Senator Sherrod Brown. In it he addresses how fear controls these Rs in Congress.

I keep getting this feeling that someone already posted this, but I can’t find it anywhere. If he/she did, thank you!
@triciact. I love skeptical husband predictions. My husband is the same, although yours sounds a bit bolder. I am psyched about his prediction. Of course, I want it to come true for many reasons but it will be fun that he predicted it here. We will showcase him just like this:
Visualizing this now posted on the Prediction page:
March 26--March would be the start of Trump's final downfall. March 26 and March 31 were significant dates. (@TriciaCT hubby) Predicted 2/6/20. 3/26/20 NY Times: It is the beginning of the end for Donald Trump In Today's new...
Ha! Thank you dear Jeanne. I hope he is right! As do most of us here. The prospect of having to endure The Orange Nightmare, now that he feels even more empowered, is pretty scary for even a few months, let alone longer.
By the way I hope you are feeling better and healing well after your throat surgery. ?
