I know it is a bit of a fallacy in logic, but I do often make judgement calls about people based on the people they seem to be attracting. The fact that Yang is attracting the attention of the weird parts of the net (race realists, Gamergate holdouts, Red Pillers, etc.) leads me to pay him no mind moving forward. 

Saying that she’s “crunchy” actually made my eyes roll. Goddamn. How ridiculous to playfully describe someone who is as heinous as her.

Fear of what? 

I would use a broken clock analogy, but Williamson is a dangerous loon and deserves no credit for pointing out obvious shit.

That’s been my prevailing theory from the beginning. I agree with you that it probably won’t start to truly form until September. I think it was wishful thinking for me to think it would happen this summer. 

I agree with you on the Biden point and nothing else there. He definitely wants to run against Biden because he could then run against Obama by proxy. I just hope another decent candidate can sneak past him. I’m still waiting for him to bumble himself out of the race. 

Well that’s money well... hmm... what’s another word that’s not “earned,” but doesn’t denote a negative. Money... attained?

If ever there was a time for the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme to come on. 

Honestly in terms of kooks, she isn’t quite as bad as the “Earth is 6,000 years old,” race realism, IQ realism, Holocaust denying, bootstrap pulling types on the right.

But not by much. She’s still a dangerous kook and shouldn’t be taken seriously in any forum. 

It never ceases to amaze me how moderators like Tapper - or essentially any other representative of the media in these debates - never would ask a GOP candidate how they would sell their ideas to progressives, Democrats, liberals, etc. The onus is always on the left to appeal to the right and not vice-versa.

Getting…

I think I understand why Elvis shot his TVs a lot. 

I keep hearing that this represents the last gasps of the “old guard” attempting to hold onto their power by appointing or propping up just the worst people. This appears to not be the case as I don’t see an end to this nonsense on the horizon. 

I’ve met some gruntled people before.

I am a teacher and so is my wife. You make excellent points, but none will mean a thing until we fundamentally change the idea of what education is here in this country.

Every time I think of how shit CNN becomes, I think of Bernard Shaw. He got out at the right time and it seems he might have known what was coming.

I agree. The concentration of wealth is really a hinderance to how education is failing or thriving in a certain area. 

God, how embarrassing. “I don’t have the rest of it with me.”

It’s interesting to see the news cycle attempt to create a controversy in it’s larvae stage right here. I’m glad he was able to counter it so well and I hope other candidates can muster the same amount of pushback.

I would also like to submit the sock be filled with either two billiard balls or many bars of soap. The latter would leave less noticeable bruises.

Start saving all the receipts for the time when these dunces turn on trump and try to pretend they didn’t have anything to do with it all.

I’m from Philly, ma’am, and this is a Wendy’s.
