    I often post, to the chagrin of some, that I've yet to hear a Trump voter admit a mistake.
    Well it is only fair to report that has changed. I've now seen it once. Seen not heard because it was on a friend's Facebook post that lit Trump up pretty hard.
    A guy replied, "Hey, I'm going to be honest and all of you can unfriend me because I deserve it. I voted for him. Frankly, I thought he'd be less of a shitshow than the other candidate. I could not have been more wrong. It was a mistake and I'm sorry."

    Replies were all pretty supportive along the lines of hey, appreciate your honesty and your willingness to admit the mistake. Some were a bit nasty.

    I do wonder how many of the 63 million wish they had voted differently?

    I'm still not convinced he won't win again.

    Then stage a separate "G9" meeting and include Russia and India.

    He could, sure. Either major party candidate since 1988 had a real chance to win (poor Mike Dukakis once led Bush 41 by 17 points). But the odds against him get longer and longer. Today's WaPo poll: Biden 53-Trump 43.

    Not the point and you know it. Russia was expelled from the G-8 for a reason.
    And the only reason Trump postponed it, and said he wanted to expand, was that once Merkel declined it was unlikely anyone else would come.

    Have faith, it’s free and what good is it to worry over something you can’t control? Look if we can’t vote him out now, we live among idiots.

    It is noteworthy how in three separate but equal national crises, the reaction of the political world, including his own administration, is to keep Trump the hell out of it. 1. CARES Act negotiated between Pelosi and Mnuchin, Trump nowhere near it. 2. Coronavirus briefings ended because they were killing Trump's poll numbers. 3. Should Trump address the nation on racial distress and civic unrest? I'd bet every Republican in Congress up for re-election this year is thinking, "oh, God please no."

    Remember when he rushed into MSD High and stopped the shooter singlehandedly despite bone spurs?
