Right on. We’re not both right. The word is “jig” with a soft “j” sound, not “gig” which begins with a hard “g”. If you can show me 6 recorded instances of anyone saying “the gig is up”, I’ll concede that we’re both right, but you won’t be able to. Meanwhile, I’ll be happy to show you cite after cite and example after example of “the jig is up”.
Not only that, a “gig” is a job, and no one says “the job is up”, ever. No musician or other performer has ever ended a gig and noted that “the gig is up”. My cite is 38 years of gigging.
Not really, though. Lenin was in Zurich at the time of the February revolution as well as when Nicky stepped down. That was the major turning point for Russia. He then gathered some friends and managed to get safe passage back to his country. The Germans did not take an active role in getting Lenin back to Russia as JohnT suggests, they merely allowed him to get there himself.
Tan the Conman is certainly anti-America and a traitor to America and its values in more ways than one; however, he hasn’t met the constitutional definition of treason…yet.
Dream on. They will never blame him. They will turn out in greater numbers to ensure his re-election. And if he gets impeached or assassinated before then, every conspircy known previously will pale in comparison to the one they will create as to why and how that happened. And innocent people will die at their hands “for being part of the takedown of the greatest president we ever had”.
It’s true. Trump supporters have a sado-masochistic relationship with their hero. The more he hurts them, the more they like him. It’s a very strange phenomena.
One liberal conspiracy theory I’ve heard is that McConnell, Ryan, et al have been recorded telling the NRA how to funnel Russian/oligarch money to the RNC and cover it up. What seemed totally crazy at the beginning of this clusterfuck doesn’t seem so surprising anymore. I don’t think I’d be shocked if that turned out to be true.
