Their extremist views have them so boxed in that they have collectively decided to fight a battle they cannot win. This is a seminal turning point in our country's history.

education than 45 did and are much smarter than he is. They also have common sense and don't have 70 yrs of never being told no, you can't do that. These kids were raised right and 45 wasn't. He's a bully and a con. They can spot a bully a mile away so 45 is obviously threatened by them.

Today, they will vote you out if you do not take action.

The Brady team is there with them,too.

I tuned in Fox for a few minutes, the silly young women were going on about how we can’t go too far! Foolish young Fox bots. They are as bad as the Russian bots!

You're worse than me..

OK, I'll tell you somethihng. Now, don;t take this the wronf way, true Blue, ok?

The ONLY other person I know who uses a stylus is my ex-wife's husband. He is an aerospace engineer, worked on the space shuttle engines (The ones that did NOT blow up). is so OCD that he wears the same pants and shirt and socks and shoes EVEREE day, and took 8 hours in a store to choose a mattress. Plus, when going up a grade on an Interstate he will sometimes go as slow as 40 mph so as not to "wear out the engine!" See, he KNOWS how engines are designed. I don;t know how much thought he gives to that semi- barreling down on us at 75!!!

And it takes him like 10 minutes to spreads peanut butter on a piece of bread so it is even.

She was Pres GW Bush's press secretary and I didn't think I'd care for her as a host on MSNBC. But she's really kicking Trump and his administration's butt.

These kids are so mature and well spoken. These teens are absolutely young adults...more adult than most of the people in Congress.

Loving THEM. Grateful to them for picking up the baton and carrying it forward. Honestly, I'm 70, have lung and heart issues, and not able to physically march or act, and I am so relieved these wonderful kids are picking up the slack. They are fighting for themselves, for everyone, including my 5 year old granddaughter.

They are amazing! Godspeed to them!

"I just don't care about politics" "The parties are all the same" "What I do won't make any difference" ETC - I think young people have something to grasp onto now.

give all America a lesson in what it means to really do something about improving one of the things so obviously wrong, and one that affects them deeply. They infused me with a new hope. The real message to the NRA and their paid political hit men is that millions of those kids, and a good portion of their families, will be voting in November. We, and yes I join those young people in their quest for justice, will be taking back our democracy in November.
