I...wow.

I’m glad some folks are enjoying this game; everyone has their somewhere they want to be, and that somewhere doesn’t work for other folks—and that’s fine. I enjoy a great many things others think are a waste of time.

This whole kerfuffle, though, comes off as one giant kettle of “we coasted way too hard on a…

We knew they were coming for months, we could have just prepped to process them in an orderly manner upon arrival, instead we prepped for a conflict and now have made it a self fulfilling prophecy. All to put on a show to get the base frothing at the mouth.

“A girl who struggles”

Her constituents did that already.

“-functions much in the same way flat-screen televisions and nice sneakers show up in conservative rhetoric about people on Medicaid or receiving food stamps.”

The skepticism of Ocasio-Cortez speaks to the broader classism, sexism, and racism that characterizes so much of the way things work on the Hill and in elite media spaces.

I have relatives who pray for Trump at the dinner table. No joke. It’s madness- the hypocrisy and just sheer lunacy of so-called Christians speaking Trump’s and Jesus’s name in the same breath.

Exactly. Envy and spite. And for crying out loud, he just NEVER gets tired of insulting Obama (directly or indirectly). Of course there are all those scary brown people in California with their crazy music and weird food (that isn’t a Big Mac). His racism, I trust, will be what defines him in history books.

Also- lotta Trump supporters in Paradise. I would know, I am related to them. They just lost their whole community and not a kind word from their leader. Not his best move. 

Exactly.

You’re an incredible and really strong person. You’re awesome too....which is why you’re one of my favorite commenters :D

He’s treating California like he treated Puerto Rico.

James fucking Woods managed to find his humanity for a moment, but our president couldn’t be bothered to try.

Congressman Ted Lieu replied to the Asshole in Chief that, in fact, 98% of forest land in California is federally owned, and that Trump was the person who cut funding to the Forest Service, so any “mismanagement” lies on Trump’s head. Ted Lieu is the ultimate trump twitter troll. Also, the local news reported that…

Trump hates how Hollywood and the Hollywood elite have turned against him, how he completely lost California in the election though he claimed he could have won it if campaigned more, he hates how Jerry Brown defies him and refuses to kiss his ass, etc etc. Not surprised he blames California for being California- even…

Fuck you to hell trump. You get all of your information from that shit site “Infowars” and the other one - Breitbart. I hope that everyone in Cali drags you so hard that you have that stroke that we are all praying for. Also dying in a fire would be OK.

Oh fuck off Trump. It’s all “thoughts and prayers” when it comes to mass shootings every other day and doing nothing about gun control, but a huge fire that is killing people and ruining their lives is just “It’s all the forest management’s fault.” How about a little empathy for those that died horribly and have lost…

I’m guessing whoever still supports Trump also hates ‘California’, or their idea of what California stands for, and thinks we deserve this and he’s a hero for telling it like it is. What I’m guessing they don’t know is that Butte County went for Trump in 2016. And is one of the counties that wants to secede from the…

Head over to Splinter. They cover the President all the time. 

In 2018? I expected to hear about a 70-year-old man in far too much touch with young women.
