Scott Dworkin: It's almost a certainty that Mueller will try Manafort for the ten charges that ended in a hung jury in the previous trial. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: Manafort can't push back much; he's really disadvantaged at this point. He'd have to give up something absolutely crazy or he'll be in prison for the rest of his life. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Rick: Or, Trump could pardon Manafort.
Scott Dworkin: I don't see Trump making it to the midterms as President. HIs campaign fully implicated, his family around him... @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: Trump just praised himself, even after the death toll numbers came back, for his work in Puerto Rico.
Rick: Even George W. Bush wouldn't have said something like that. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: Intelligence thinks there are over 1000 Russian spies who've spent their lives here in the U.S.
Rick: They've infiltrated the highest offices in the land, and they know our fault lines better than we do. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Rick: Trump says if the #BlueWave hits, violence will break out.
Scott Dworkin: The #Resistance is a peaceful organization.
Rick: I don't think he's talking about The Resistance; I think he's talking about the militia people. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: I would think most of the things Desantis says, incl "monkey up," come right from Trump himself. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: I think Obama will campaign a lot for Gillum. Michelle Obama will also be on the campaign trail. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Rick: Saying "monkey up," calling Dems "dogs," they aren't even trying to hide their racism any more.
Scott Dworkin: They're hiding it in plain sight, just like all the coded messages from Trump to Russia. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport
Scott Dworkin: Do you think NC can un-gerrymander the state before the election?
Rick: I don't think they can; there's not much time. They have to figure out where everyone lives and go from there. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport#gerrymander
Rick: I really don't think Trump realizes that Puerto Ricans are American citizens. I think he doesn't care one iota about them.
Rick: I'm harder on Democrats than I am on Republicans because Dems know better and should do better.
Rick: What about Trump's reaction to McCain's passing?
Scott Dworkin: Trump is a big man-baby. It was exactly how, if Putin were to order Trump to react in a certain way, Trump would behave that way verbatim. @funder@TheDemCoalition#DworkinReport

Rick: Grassley basically said women don't want to work.
Sarah Kendzior: All women do is work. Women have been doing the bulk of the work of protesting, documenting the atrocities of the this administration. @sarahkendzior@gaslitnation#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: Those in power don't care. Our elected representatives don't care about our opinions, about their constituents, about being voted out of office. That tells me they plan to rig election, disqualify votes after the fact. @sarahkendzior@gaslitnation#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: They want a disempowered, serf-like class struggling for survival. It's the Republican dream. They've designed a transnational economy that benefits the wealthiest. @sarahkendzior@gaslitnation#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: This was the first I've heard of the parade being cancelled. Costing $92 million??
Rick: How do you justify spending $92 million on something that only one person wants? @sarahkendzior@gaslitnation#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: $92 million could be spent on veterans, on healthcare, on so many more things that are more important than a parade. @sarahkendzior@gaslitnation#GasLitNation
Rick: I find it funny they waited until the NDAA was signed before they pulled back on the parade.
Sarah Kendzior: I think with all Republicans you need to look at what policies they've passed & what their rhetoric is. They say someone should do something about Russian interference (them!) but nothing's getting done. @sarahkendzior#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: Russia wants the US to be pulled out of NATO. They want NATO to be weakened, they want the US to be weakened, they don't want oligarchs to be investigated for anything. @sarahkendzior#GasLitNation
Sarah Kendzior: Why would the Russians help Dems win elections? The Russians wouldn't get what they want then. Saying the Russians are helping Dems is absolute crap. @sarahkendzior#GasLitNation
Rick: When do we have the intervention? Can we tell Twitter to turn Trump off?
Propane Jane: A lot of people say when Trump does this, he's distracting from something, but he's always lurching from tantrum to tantrum. Hard to tell when he's stable. @docrocktex26#TellTaleTweet
Propane Jane: He's had a bad week, but it's actually been a couple of bad months. Well, 19 bad months. The news cycle continues to be very bad. @docrocktex26#TellTaleTweet
Propane Jane: Trump really thought he showed strength w/ #Russia, and then when he returned to the US, he was flabbergasted to find the American public didn't agree. @docrocktex26#TellTaleTweet
Sarah: He literally said, "I'm just putting it together now." I don't know which is worse, that he didn't put apprentice/apprenticeship together before, or that he felt comfortable saying that in front of cameras & reporters. Bless his heart.
Rick: Evidently Trump had irrefutable evidence Day One about Russian interference but he's chosen to vehemently deny, refute it.
Sarah: The forensic detail is absurd. The world now knows the US knows what's going on when it comes to cyber espionage.
