Please, please, please come back to Iowa! It’s been too long!

Americans gave #TheFelon a minority of the popular vote & now hold a net disapproval rating of him. So how can they be ‘solidly behind’ him & his Bond villain henchman? It’s one thing to print contrarian op-eds, @DMRegister. It’s another thing to print propaganda. You’re better than this.

It’s a simple question, Kimbo. Just fucking answer it with the one word required.
They call it a gaffe when a politician accidentally tells the truth, and that's what our Governor did today 😬 😂

May @JoshuaAtLarge show the world just how stupid, angry & pointless Iowa has become.

You are the definition of a good son. :) And sitting in the equivalent of the #DawgPound, no less!

Wrapping up our adventure at the second Quality Inn stay of weekend. Cleveland was a great time and it was a trip that my Dad and I will always remember — even if the Browns didn’t score a single touchdown today 😂

Truly saddened at the passing of #JimmyCarter, though we all knew his age and health meant that he did not have long to live.

Interestingly, I never cast a ballot for Jimmy — I wasn’t yet 18 in 1976, and I voted for independent John Anderson in 1980 because I foolishly didn’t understand the world as I do now. It’s the only vote I’ve regretted in my life.

#RIP #JimmyCarter: We pray that #America can someday find an individual with your decency to lead our debauched nation & its voters back to true greatness.

#TheFelon would brand Jimmy Carter as a loser, but history will judge who the real loser is. I can only hope that The Felon not be permitted to show his face at the ceremonies in the days to come.

What a contrast to the criminal, sexual abuser, and serial liar who will re-assume office as #POTUS in 3 weeks & destroy what remains of America’s international credibility.

Later, I did come to understand # JimmyCarter was the most decent human being to serve as #POTUS in our lifetime, a peacemaker and a gentle soul.

‘Agricultural producers could face worse losses than any other economic sector from Trump’s plans to impose sweeping tariffs on imports and to undertake what he frequently has called “the largest domestic deportation operation” of undocumented immigrants “in American history.”’ theatlantic.com/politics/arc…
The consequences will be far-ranging — from businesses and ag operations suddenly left short handed, to police finding it more difficult to get immigrants to cooperate with criminal investigations. ⤵️

‘Hospitals and other health providers in rural areas could face the greatest strain from proposals Trump has embraced to slash spending on Medicaid, which provides coverage to a greater share of adults in smaller communities than in large metropolitan areas.’

But no matter. The liberals will have been owned.

‘Small-town public schools would likely be destabilized even more than urban school districts if Trump succeeds in his pledge to expand “school choice” by providing parents with vouchers to send their kids to private schools.’

Isn’t ‘water quality’ part of the reason why we lead the nation in cancer rates?
What a joke. It has been proven that effective water quality measures are not being taken in Iowa. Year after year goes by with no improvements. In fact, there’s probably some backsliding going on. Don’t disregard.

Gloating is unbecoming of a US senator, Jonester. But then so was breadbagging and campaigning on your ability to lop the nuts off pigs. Which German state of 1933 do you think is most like Iowa?
Donald J. Trump’s Election Day results put Ann Selzer’s fake news polling to shame. Iowans proved her wrong once and for all — Iowa is Trump Country! 🇺🇸
