While cleaning up older recordings, I ran across this Chris Mathews episode from October that probably shouldn’t have me rolling on the floor laughing, as every word Ron Reagan says is true, but it did.
Hardball with Chris Mathews 10/25/17 — Starting @ minute 6:40 are various Trump speeches on his brain and how smart he is.
Ron Reagan responds @ minute 7:30
I’d write out a brief transcript, but it wouldn’t do justice to Ron Reagan’s description of and proscription for Trump.
Yeah there are real bad things happening..

And even when the vast majority of people want our lawmakers to do one thing, they do the opposite (net neutrality and the CFPB fiduciary rule that protects people as the priority, and more dismantling of consumer protections)

Rachel Maddow reports on an emerging pattern of public feedback on U.S. policy changes being stuff with fake comments from the hijacked identities of real Americans to show artificial support for Trump administration policies.

Pristine wilderness now in very real danger of being ripped apart for a pay-to-play deal between the Trump regime and the “Copper Kings”
Billionaire Andrónico Luksic owns house Ms Trump moved into following inauguration - and is suing US to gain access to vast mineral resource on US Forest Service land [...]
The ultimate owner, Andrónico Luksic, is lobbying the government to persuade it to give the green light for a huge and environmentally controversial mine in Minnesota.
It raises yet more questions over Mr Trump’s family ties to big global business and its potential to corrupt the administration.

People are fighting back:
and they could use the help too:
There are many ways to help protect the pristine waters and unspoiled forests of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, but the important thing is to take action now. Together, we can keep sulfide-ore copper mining out of the watershed and continue the rich legacy of the Wilderness Act and ensure permanent protection for the Boundary Waters so future generations can continue to enjoy the Wilderness. Contact info@savetheboundarywaters.org(link sends e-mail) for more tips on ways to help.

So Yeah I shouldn’t have lost it (laughing) watching Ron Reagan take Trump apart, but with this current corrupt administration squatting in the White House with all the corruption and malfeasance that is happening, when Ron Reagan said it:
“..the electoral college, not the American people, but the electoral college has sort of vomited this thing up and it landed in the Oval office.. and it needs to be removed..it’s a stain.. it’s a big glob on the carpet there, and it needs to be removed..”
.. I lost it laughing like I haven’t for a long time

It’s gotten late and time to turn in. Hope this video plays for the brief relief it provided to me. If not, here is another link that should also work
