“Jost is saying that liberals should deemphasize equal rights for all people because it alienates rednecks.”

It was an acceptable joke. I wasn’t dying with laughter. It worked for what it was.

This kind of thinking is what bothers me.
“Trump supporters voted because of jobs, not racism, sexism, homophobia!”
“Cool, so we can keep supporting the marginalized/calling out racism, sexism and homophobia, while supporting economic development in rural communities?”
“welllllllllll.......”

Edit: It’s insulting to…

it was a good joke

Trump ran an anti-Semitic campaign against a Methodist, though. Bernie’s right, who the hell knows what would have happened.

Of course Bernie would have won; does anyone doubt that Bernie would have kept the working class white men in Ohio, WI, PA and Michigan that voted for Obama twice but then switched to Trump? WI, PA & MI were the whole ballgame and they’re Bernie territory. We could have had President-elect Sanders instead of that fat,…

It’s irrelevant, anyway.

No puppet.

He actually looks like a puppet.

That is the face of a man who did not see this coming.

He does not look comfortable or happy.

The most awesome thing about this is how much damage it will do to the people who actually voted for this person.

It’s sad (ahem) and fascinating. I have both undergrad and grad degrees in psychology/counseling, and during all studies I remember thinking that the classification of narcissist was sort of fabulist in itself...as in, surely no single person acts out in all these ways.

Tiffany is the Meg Griffin of the Trumps.

Roger. Coleman is a nice little town of 700 people, 95% of whom are white, in northern Wisconsin. If there are riots, you can probably just go fishing and be fine.

I know this is horrible to say, but I hope he has Cosby levels of accusers come out.

If one more person asks why these women are just coming out now, I am going to take a huge period shit in their mouth.

Oh my god, I’m so sick of saying this, THAT’S NOT HOW THE FUCKING FIRST AMENDMENT WORKS.

So she got a worse suspension for calling a (cowardly) team cowardly than she did for knocking out her nephew?
