The “Trump is awful” case has been made. Hillary Clinton’s campaign’s fatal flaw was thinking it was enough. It wasn’t. They should’ve known better. Turnout for the Dems has never ever been about the negative, that’s the GOP. To get the turnout you need you need bold ideas, fresh faces. Obama in 2008 showed us that.…

Context: I live in a red state. I am surrounded by these people. I listen to them daily. I look like one of them, so as long as I stay quiet, they think I’m one of them. There are clearly at least two distinct types: the disciples, who would vote for him if he came to their house, burned it down, raped their daughter,…

If you had told me thirty years ago I would live in a time where elected representatives would climb over each other to be able to throw tantrums like six-year-olds on live television—and do it repeatedly—because these tantrums were their best chance to be reelected, I would have laughed.

Story number 8000 on this ridiculous issue, while the press has moved on from the census/citizenship flop and Jeffery Epstein. As I read somewhere else, the press is like a bunch of cats and Trump has the laser pointer.

I didn’t always agree with the man, but by Jove, he had the magic touch around kids:

Almost a grape tomato, if you will.

It’s gotta be near the top if she says no

No, “Bob” isn’t the biggest problem. Bob will throw his hand sup in frustration and say “well, excuse me for having an option” or some other self martyrdom.

The bigger problem is the relative who hears “Bob” get his racist shot in and then tries to shut the conversation down with “lets not discuss politics” while side…

I have a three year old, but hard same otherwise.

How did a fly get into the White House?

Only one overarching group in American politics predominantly shares the factors that define a tribe (culture, language, religion, race, etc.), and it ain’t liberals/progressives...

You laugh until she announces her cabinet

I don’t expect her to completely close the gap between her and Warren, let alone her and Biden on the strength of one debate performance. But what is going to happen is that she will get a modest bump (I would guess that she will be in double digits by Monday) that will command more attention from the media, which…

I am a politics junkie but I found yesterday feeling like I was dreading it, and then realized my last debate memory was with Trump. This is different.. So I will say I have found it healing to see people on there even ROUGHLY on the same page, or agreeing on basic things like that you shouldn’t lock up undocumented…

Even that’s dubious. The US was only fighting the Nazis because the US got attacked by Japan and Japan was allied with Germany (and likely only temporarily, if all went to plan for either of them). Like Bernie Sanders recently pointed out, there was a Nazi rally with tens of thousands in attendance at MSG. Henry Ford…

A thought occurs. Why not pass a law to allow the president to replace 1 justice without cause during their presidency.

I think you’ve got the hypocrisy wrong.

An effort was barely made.

Here’s why it isn’t aliens or advanced, secret technologies: air. We live at the bottom of an ocean of air. There’s a column of air above you rising 70 miles high. When things move quickly air cannot get out of the way and it piles up in front of the object like snow pushed by a plow. This compresses and heats the air…

They’re not even the north, they’re like the Middle. There’s a whole big chunk of North north of ‘the North.’
