CBS Poll of Viewers of the State of the Union Speech:

75% Approve
25% Disapprove

Approval by Party Affiliation

45% Republicans
33% Independents
25% Democrats


https://www.cbsnews.com/news/viewers-ap ... news-poll/

1. The fact that 1 out of 3 independents and 1 out 4 DEMOCRATS liked what Trump had to say must be scaring the daylights out of the Trump Derangement Syndrome millions.

2. How can a guy who is supposedly a deranged, unhinged, demented, psychotic, mentally ill, lunatic, be kicking the intelligent, sophisticated, educated Democrats collective asses up and down the Potomac right now?

If the Nunez Memo confirms that Obama's FBI/DOJ used the Pee Pee Dossier to get a FISA warrant to spy on the Trump campaign (which is now almost certain), and that spying operation is what led to the indictments of Manafort, Flynn and the Coffee Boy, then the first thing that will happen is those indictments will be thrown out. Oh, and by the way, everything they told Mueller will become inadmissible too.

Manafort, Flynn and the Coffee Boy were supposed to be the appetizer in the Left's voracious appetite for the main course, which is Trump. Now they will become frequent contributors on Fox, write bestseller books, go on speaking tours, and address the 2020 COP Convention.

They will also sue the FBI, DOJ, Lynch, McCabe, Mueler, and everyone on Mueller's legal team, for wrrongful prosecution. Manafort will sue every last member of the federal goon squad that kicked down the door of his house in the middle of the night ad scared his wife and children half to death.

And Manafort, Flynn and the Coffee Boy will almost certainly win, and will become very wealthy as a result. Being in charge of making the regular coffee (but not the decaf), and "colluding" with a Maltese former agriculture minister, will turn out to be the most lucrative job in history.

That "Fruit from a poisoned tree" thingy is going to be a real female dog for the TDS Nation.

Hey Tick, hedge, and Cletus: if you ever come out of hiding, I've got a question for you:

How's that Trump-Russia collusion thingy going these days?

Wait for it...

I've been in China and getting through the firewall to TGP has not been a priority. I'm in Hong Kong now and will be in other more internet friendly places the next couple weeks.

Thanks for checking in.

That leaves hedge and Tick listed as MIA. I've put out an all points bulletin on them around Mayberry and Rocky Top.

China - cool! We just got back from Havana late last night. I watched the three UT roundball games I DVR'd - didn't hit the sack until 5am. I need to get underway with these 50 Montecristos and the Havana Gold 15yr.

Been on airplane mode for 6 days - did I miss anything?

I want to hear about Cuba. It's one of the few places I haven't been. Recommendations, pics, places to avoid, etc, etc.

The wife wanted to do the whole Spain's-forays-into-the-New-World thing, so we did St. Augistine and parts of Mexico and Cuba. Havana was last and obviously the best - Hemingway's favorite place on earth, and I bet he'd still recognize it save for a bunch of shitty Russian high-rises. The music, the booze, the smokes...but my god the women. Fabric must be rationed down there cause the skirts stop real short down there...joke is they only have one free hand due to always having to adjust the hem.

Places to avoid? None, there's no crime to speak of. They love Americans (or Canucks) - just speak up, otherwise they may view you as a malo rusia. ("Me Russian? - nyet, hell no." cheers all 'round). The people are awesome. And poor, by our standards..but they don't seem to know it.

The gov't is allowing private ownership of restaurants, bars, and even AirBnB - anyplace where the workers aren't dressed the same means it's not state run, and that's the place to be. Smoking is mandatory in some places, no kidding. Did I mention the women? Holy shit. There's a ton of history. Biggest Spanish fort on this side of the world, etc. And the women. I have a crap-ton of pics of American classic cars, but not the women, for an obvious reason.

Cletus and bluetick got called out as “disappearing leftists” but really they were just travelling to Cuba and China? Nice
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

To complete the trifecta, hedge must be vacationing in North Korea.
