That Gif is gold. However, the original clip captured the best part of the encounter. The thundering, awkward silence that followed when she finished her brain fart.

I don’t see her being very good at retail politics which requires a lot of mixing with the vast unwashed. Even her Dad, who was privately contemptuous of his ‘low-class’ followers and a germaphobe, could mix with his supporters on occasion. This requires you to be able to improvise, something she has no real aptitude… Read more

The extraordinary thing about many of these simpletons is that they seem genuinely shocked that their violent, armed insurrection was met with official resistance. That they somehow ideated that storming the Capitol while congress was in session would cause all the perceived “traitors” to give up immediately and turn… Read more

It’s a well known historical fact that the last supporters of Louis XVI were the county’s pillow manufacturers.

Well said. She was essentially the Pet Rock of First Ladies.

Hey JM. If she was giving tours to people who subsequently were involved with the riot, could the Feds offer them a reduced charge if they testify that she knowingly was offering the tour as a reconnaissance? Like, was she giving any history or background on the building itself, or was she simply telling them where… Read more

I have no doubt that some of the rioters were off duty police officers, but this article does not really justify the headline. 

She is fucked. Chained to a septuagenarian nincompoop with no future and with step children who plainly loathe her. She has no ‘brand’ to trade off of, no skills, and friends who will drop her in an instance if they can make money off their proximity to her. Bye bye Felicia, enjoy the bed you made for yourself.

I have my own initiative: “BE GONE!”

And don’t forget Ginni Thomas, Clarence’s wife, who cheered on the rioters. Read more

Hey if she’s using a mask as an accessory to send fact-free protest words to her knuckle dragging fans, then it at least gets her to wear a fucking mask. 

Don’t cut him out of anything. His appearances in these are just pointless stunts, which he revels in and used it as his governing principle. In the future, people need to see how shallow and untalented he was. 

There’s a situation comedy in there somewhere: Read more

I think of the Sopranos as an analogy. Everyone who comes into the family’s orbit eventually has their lives destroyed yet there was always someone waiting in line to step up and take the warm embrace that comes with being close to power. Read more

In other news, Trump’s longtime physician died. He’s the guy who said in 2016 “If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency.” Read more

Trump himself was said to have been disappointed that his supporters attacking the Capitol looked “low class.” He had to have known, somewhere in his lizard brain, that these slovenly low-lifes did not present a winning image. Fascism doesn’t work without uniformity, disciplined appearance and coordinated action.

I lived in New York in the late 80's, when Giuliani was elected Mayor and Trump was in his failed casino building days. It seems surreal that the two of them were destined to be entwined in these infamous final days of their careers, heading for the ash heap of history and fighting with each other at the end.

I remember Michael Stipe’s story of going to Patti Smith’s show in the Village and having Trump and his date join them in the VIP lounge. He wouldn’t shut up and finally Stipe told him to be quiet after which Trump got up and left. Read more

Oh fuck him. Trump gave him his truck nuts necklace yesterday, and he should have refused it like Belichick did if he had ANY credibility. Read more
