In the event Trump dues implode at some point (I don’t think this is it), please remember Pence is just as dangerous.

Still not as weird as the Ginsberg-Scalia friendship.

Yeah people should take advantage of all the heat on Trump. Clean the skeletons out of their closet while nobody is paying attention.

It was a much bigger problem than the show’s “validity.” We all have so many ancestors that Finding Your Roots can’t possibly cover all of your family lines. The problem was in Affleck saying, “Don’t show my history of slave-owning ancestors because it makes me look bad.” Sticking our heads in the sand like that is…

(No pun intended).

If look at his record of actions, not words, craven describes him to a tee. For his years in Congress he has done very little himself except coattail on others efforts and only on things in which the support will benefit him. He is like every politician ever and definitely not a “maverick”.

Yesterday, only one (from Utah) had formally endorsed and then rescinded. Any idea on how many on the list had already endorsed him?

Yeah, he cashed in that reputation in spades starting the moment he dropped out in 2000 and continuing through the present. Even before Palin - that was just the absolute final nail in the coffin.

The John McCain who endured what he did in the POW camp so long ago, would look at the current man with rage and shame. Every principle he ever stood for has been sold out since 2008 because he is terrified at the thought of losing power. People change. Now he is just a pathetic, bitter, coward.

I think it’s hard for really successful athletes to not bias a bit toward the GOP. They have to have this belief that all their success comes from their own hard work (it’s an extremely Darwinian environment, despite it being a team sport) and they are fucking rich. They end up with very rich friends and running a…

No kidding. Also, not that there is anything “funny” about this whole situation, but seriously- Billy Bush is a part of THAT BUSH FAMILY. Did he not think that maybe his cousin, who was running for the Republican nomination might be interested in this information, like, a year ago? Did anyone at the RNC vet their…

I assume Chris Christie was unable to be reached because he was out getting everybody’s donuts and Starbucks?

Does the NRA advocate that women carry guns to defend themselves from sexual predators whom they endorse for President?

Man, how bad does he feel about reversing his position from the convention?

Also, I hope someone goes with him to the polls and gets a picture of him going into Blue Screen of Death mode right after voting.

Oh, Ted Cruz. Just when you thought your humiliation was over, things get even worse. You deserve it.

Plus, a genuine apology wouldn’t insist that this news story is a “distraction from the important issues.” No, you irredeemably predatory fuckwit, your inability to see women as human beings (as opposed to body parts for you to grope) *is* an important issue!

This campaign, particularly on the right, is rapidly devolving into “I may be bad, but here are a bunch of talking points about how Hillary (and Bill) are worse.”

His campaign’s a joke. All they can possibly do is walk around with a dustpan cleaning up the shit he leaves behind, they can’t do anything about the places he’s walking to.

The “are you there?” and the “I’m sorry” note parts hurt to read. My heart aches for the child and the parents.

Why bring up a woman who was groomed to be an ornamental figurehead and not, say, her husband or Maria Theresa or any of the aristocrats who actually had the ability to make policy? I feel like you can’t have picked a worse example to snark on!
