Oh shut the fuck up. The left fucking harassed her for a year for being too “middle America” and so she decided to go further left and lost middle America and the election. You’re fucking useless.

Worst candidate ever?

Yeah man, we’re so glad America chose* a lying racist instead.

Yes, by all means, all of those people who are concerned about practicalities like health care and jobs will be better served by the President who gets rid of the ACA and starts a trade war with Mexico/China/everyone.

Right, but strikes are not intended to be convenient

What do we do though? I’ve been protesting, signing petitions, donating, calling my representatives, trying to get more involved in local politics, etc., but the frustrating thing is that it seems like no one can stop him. It also feels like we have no true leadership. Honestly I wish Obama would come back into the…

Trump reminds me of the student who think’s he cleverly bullshitting his way through an essay exam when his instructor is actually roaring with laughter, then sharing the exam with colleagues so they can laugh, too. In this quote, Spicer sounds like that guy, too. Which is actually a step up for him.

This is the 4th grade answer to “what are Frederick Douglass’ most notable contributions to US history?” when your 4th grader didn’t read the chapter and doesn’t have even the foggiest idea of who he was, where he was or what he did

Oddly, from all of that bullshit, this is my favourite part:

But that’s very low for a high-level assistant. I make quite a bit more than that (as an assistant) at a non-profit. I remember JLo’s ad (about 5 years ago) was only paying 50K and the person had to also watch the twins and be on call 24/7. And it’s J.Lo, who begrudges every penny she pays, so you know she would try…

What do we do when the enforcement arm refuses to do their jobs (e.g. CBP at Dulles not following the court orders)? We’re looking at some real Jacksonian shit right here.

He has no idea what’s in it. He’s not a lawyer, he’s never been in government or military service. He has the same understanding of the Constitution as his redneck supporters.

I really wanted to like it. I’ve since gone and watched about half a dozen old musicals just to make sure I wasn’t losing my mind. I wasn’t. La La Land is not a good musical. It’s a formulaic romantic-comedy with forgettable songs. The opening number was excellent though. I wish the rest of the film had followed…

The SNL skit on it with Aziz Ansari was kinda funny.

La La Land is that movie that everyone tries to make excuses for as a way to discredit people who didn’t think it was all that special.

I guess my question to this is: what if the answer to this question is “no, you won’t”? Then what? What if, hypothetically, I marched for reproductive rights, and I disagreed with literally everything else that other people were there for? Did I not belong there, then? Who’s the gatekeeper to a “women’s march” who…

Yeah, that’ll make the first-time marchers feel great. Can we stop picking at people who gave enough of a shit to come out and march in January, and then tell them it isn’t good enough? I think all women need to be respectful of the new-to-protest women who are now galvanized. Coming together on commonalities and…

I do tend to see a hell of a lot of bitching and yelling at people who are just trying to help though, especially around here.

“I’m a lifelong Dem and I recognize that Republicans have us beat on this”

I’m of two minds on this. On one hand, yes, where was this level of visible outrage around black lives matter and standing rock? On the other hand, does the very nature of being a woman automatically include you in the outrage of ALL disenfranchised peoples? Is one only given “cred” when they express outrage and…
