New one: he just doesn’t want to be successful.

Hey Lindsey, pick yourself up by your bootstraps bro! 

I think she’d be great on city council. Local politics is underrated.

Plus the only reason he ran in the first place was to grow his brand.  Adding “one-time Presidential candidate” to his resume probably sounded like a lot of fun at the time.  I think he’s as surprised as anyone that he got the nomination, but once he did it just inflated his ego more. “Wow, look at me, I just walk in…

Exactly. His reality TV fame got him here, but that has nothing to do with him being a horrid sack of shit. Al Franken became famous through comedy and then pushed one of the Senate’s more progressive agendas.

Never mind -staying-…

All the embarrassed millionaires out here thinking they’ll make over $400K a year in annual income once they get discovered and hit it big.

How far can you make it into Vic Berger’s demented 68-minute edit of the Trump presidency?

racism is bad but has nothing to do with personal honor

The problem with your statement is that you’re entirely focused on individuals/individuality, and not systemic patterns.
