Georgia GOP Congressional Winner: ‘I Do Not Support A Livable Wage’
American Empathy is sorely lacking with  GOP runoff winner Karen Handel. After Jon Ossoff had come out in support of a minimum wage increase to bring it to a livable wage.  Handel was asked whether she, too, supported a living wage. She replied “This is an example of the fundamental difference between a liberal and a conservative,” Handel began. “I do not support a livable wage.” She went on to say that she supported an economy that was robust and another argle-bargle. All that matters is that she doesn’t support people receiving wages on which they can live. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/19/us/politics/karen-handel-facts.html?_r=0


The Great Wall Of Trump
When President Trump, was candidate Trump, he insisted he’d build a wall along the border with Mexico and that Mexico would pay for it?  Now, Donald “The Art of the Deal” Trump is telling people he might want to attach a bunch of solar panels to the wall, which would pay for said wall.
Trump reportedly suggested the idea during a meeting with Republican politicians.  He told the gathered lawmakers that they were free to talk about the possibility if they said Trump came up with it

 In Trump’s dreams, the wall towers 40-50 feet above the earth and gleams with solar panels, generating electricity that would essentially serve as the delicious cash needed to fund the wall, which is predicted to cost billions of dollars. The plan, though—like seemingly all plans this administration has put forth—is by no means definitive.
And until this non-definitive plan comes to non-fruition, feel free to remember all the times Trump insisted Mexico—the country, which is not a collection of solar panels—would pay for his wall.

The Great Wall Of Trump

When President Trump, was candidate Trump, he insisted he’d build a wall along the border with Mexico and that Mexico would pay for it?  Now, Donald “The Art of the Deal” Trump is telling people he might want to attach a bunch of solar panels to the wall, which would pay for said wall.

Where are the solar panels?

Trump reportedly suggested the idea during a meeting with Republican politicians.  He told the gathered lawmakers that they were free to talk about the possibility if they said Trump came up with it

 In Trump’s dreams, the wall towers 40-50 feet above the earth and gleams with solar panels, generating electricity that would essentially serve as the delicious cash needed to fund the wall, which is predicted to cost billions of dollars. The plan, though—like seemingly all plans this administration has put forth—is by no means definitive.

“Hunt them, identity [sic] them, and kill them. Kill them all,” Rep. Clay Higgins wrote on his Facebook page on Sunday. “For the sake of all that is good and righteous. Kill them all.”

Lack Of Empathy From Republicans Is Ruining America

American empathy is not alive or well in the GOP. The Republican Party would do well to spend a few hours on a psychiatrist’s couch. A new psychology study shows that the Party, and America as a whole, has lost empathy towards others. It’s believed that is what’s driving the rise of fascist leaders like somebody we know.
