The most telling of his final actions—he goes along with his deviant, cruel, traitorous political party to the bitter, bitter end. And you better believe he knew exactly how traitorous they were. He still honored them over the people until the very end of his life. THAT was John McCain.

No. The middling Clinton strategy has gotten us in to this mess. No thank you.

“Is this Aretha Franklin?”

That’s assuming that RBG and Breyer make it to when the Democrats are back in the WH or control of the senate.

Yep.

Counter-counterpoint....Obama had 45% approval at this point, and Democrats were murdered in the equivalent mid-terms.

Counterpoints.

Trump supporters are the un-American traitorous pieces of trash. Full stop.

I’m a teacher and I currently work for a non-unionized ESD. I provide special education services to smaller districts who have trouble attracting and retaining special education teachers.

Recently, the school I’m placed at, through union activity, secured a wage adjustment after a decade of no cost of living…

Yup, spite is exactly what caused “swing voters”. Racial spite. So fuck them and fuck you and your bullshit respectability politics. I will absolutely be spiteful towards those who hate my very existence.

Whatever. Fascism was openly staring us in the face through the entire 2016 election, but a certain portion of the left did everything in its power to divide the Democratic party and give the right the edge.

You stop being a chickenshit, stop pretending that anyone will ever care how “nice” or “respectful” to the other side you were or will ever pay you back in kind, and fucking force them to take the bad option if they really want it. We’re talking about a Republican Party that is ripping itself apart because it can’t…

Maybe they’ll get it when their precious universal health care gets stricken down by the court.

Even if the tapes are real, they couldn’t and won’t do shit to damage Trump among his base. At this point the lines have been drawn, paved over and painted, you can’t stand Trump or his crew and want him gone, or you think he’s the best thing ever and will start riots and shed blood to keep him where he is.

So what the fuck is the individual citizen to do? I’ve lived beneath the poverty line most of my goddamn life and I’ve barely enough resources to support my family. I live in AK (a Red state) so I know that my phone call to Murkowski was just a waste and the only thing I’m doing when I argue with my Red neighbors is…

What is autopilot for?

My detailed analysis is as follows: a bunch of fucking assholes bought the Newsweek brand, and put their fucking asshole editorial slant on it.
