Between the certification and what happened with his supporters yesterday, isn’t Dump now the ultimate lame duck. Would anybody in the Government actually carry out anything for him in the next 13 days? It isn’t like Rudy or Lin can compel the Defense Department to bomb Tehran.

Wharnock is in, Ossof holds a narrow but significant lead over Perdue. Stacey Abrams may have just made Yertle the demon turtle the Senate minority leader.

Don’t shed any tears for Fake Ann Coulter/Bass-Pro Barbie.

I think a lot of the toilet complaints come from the earliest low-flow toilets, which really didn’t work very well. The house I rent has one and it clogs about 50% of the time when asked to flush solid waste. It’s annoying and embarrassing for guests.
There are good low-flow toilets now but they cost more, so renters…

He truly is a monster

This is what you get when you decide to ‘shake things up’ by electing a complete con man to lead you...

Agree that it feels calculated to derail relief funding, fuck over McConnell, and stick it to the entire country in a way that makes it look like Trump is the good guy in the situation.

Except Pfizer didn’t take any money from Operation Warp Speed.

Here’s what I find particularly amusing about these conspiracy theories. The people spreading them are the very same people who assume the government can’t get anything right, yet somehow they managed to come up with this elaborate scheme to steal the election and it went off without a hitch and no one has blabbed…

Perhaps all the monuments to shameful traitorous persons could be perched atop some desolate hills with plaques explaining their transgressions and crimes against humanity.

Oh, totally. “Socialism” is used as the boogeyman, the reductive, inaccurate name given to whoever they are told is their enemy, and they fall for it because it’s so much easier to let someone amplify and direct their anger than to actually think critically about anything.

Very true. Also, strangely, greed: they’ve been fooled into thinking giving their money to a supposedly-great businessman will somehow mean they will get rich down the line, based on nothing that makes sense. But such is the nature of a successful grifter: it’s not really that the grifter has great intelligence, it’s…

The “socialism will make the U.S. just like Venezuela or Cuba!” thing drives me insane. The problem with Venezuela wasn’t socialism - it was that it was run by anti-democratic criminal strongman who only wanted to enrich himself and his cronies - which is exactly the government republicans want.

“I can’t even get an actual job anymore, I can’t,” she said. “Because Democrats like to ruin your lives. That’s why. Just like they do to Trump.”

I find it funny how right wing idiots swung so strongly from one ridiculous, baseless lie (being and supporting assholes will somehow improve our lives) to another (having a Democrat president will instantly turn the country socialist). Two terms of Obama didn’t actually change much, why would one with his vice preside…

Among his base there will always be people that will believe literally anything from Trump, and his crazy ass supporters like Powell. She is Flynn’s attorney, and her getting on Trump’s bad side may have cost Flynn a pardon. People forget Flynn and especially his son as especially fond of conspiracies.

More likely, she wouldn’t let Trump grab her pussy.

While I’d like to believe that at a planning meeting she started on and the team decided “She’s a wacko, let’s ditch her”, the truth is almost certainly a bit more Trumpish.  She either told him his actual chances of this shit working, or this is punishment for the ruling last night.
