Yes, they are in pretend mode. For whatever reason, those lunatics think they gravy-train will continue into perpetuity and if any crap hits the fan it will the Repub's at fault anyway so there is no incentive to face reality let alone acknowledge it!
And the MFM is complicit every step of the way!
Dem's keep screwing things up, MFM covers for Dem's and both blame Repub's...it really is that simple for them. And the truly sad part is these Dem's are still able to fool people. I would not want to bet on what comes first...collapse or fools opening their eyes!
