Being mean to the player because her child died right in front of her. I get that she’s just a fictional character, but I swear that video gamers these days have absolutely no empathy for other human beings. We’re a generation of goddamn psychopaths.

I was also deeply disturbed by that video. The few Trump supporters I know would probably see that video and say “well that’s not me!” as if ignoring the racist and xenophobic spirit of Trump’s campaign somehow absolves them.

YES. Very well said. I work with a lot of hardcore Republicans, some of whom lament trumps ascent, and I just laugh...how can people be so stupid or have such a lack of integrity to not see trump is simply a blowhorn to the dog whistles Republicans have been using for the past 30 some years. He’s literally their big…

Pretty much! When you spend decades creating a monster, don’t act all surprised that now you have a monster on your hands to deal with.

They never thought the lunatics could take over the asylum. They stare wide-eyed at the carnage around them, wondering how the rabid dog that is the Tea Party finally got off its leash and infected as many people as possible while ignoring the fact that they bred it and raised it, thinking they could somehow keep it…

Right, that video clearly shows that Trump rallies are safe spaces for racists. I don’t want to hear anyone else tell me how Trump voters will surprise me. This is what I was afraid a Trump rally was and, yep, there it is...

I have been saying that since the beginning of this farce of an election. Every time one of the GOP whines about Trump bringing the party down I want to remind them that this is simply the chickens coming home to roost.

She does. It’s the reason why moderate Republicans like she and Mitt Romney literally have no idea what to do right now...because we all know a Gary Johnson vote is a throwaway.

Yep. It’s a little rich for Republicans to get outraged by Trump’s behavior when he’s just expressing what they’ve been expressing all along, only in slightly more overt terms.

THIS. Liz Mair made some great points, but she should know that the Orange One is just the culmination of what the party has been moving towards for decades. The rise and takeover of the Tea Party faction was merely a catalyst of the party descending into madness. It’s not that he’ll “take the party down,” as she…

If you haven’t already, I would encourage everyone to watch that NYT video. It is extremely upsetting and disturbing. To anyone who is a Trump supporter, I want to know why this is the type of people that your nominee attract. These look like people that I pass on the street or in the grocery store or even at a…

I would actually put Jill Stein ahead of Donald Trump. Not because of work experience, but because she is less likely to tell everyone classified information or start a nuclear war.

When decades of “government is the problem” rhetoric, combined with virulent anti-intellectualism, combined with worship of business enterprise above social good, combined with continual stoking of racist, sexist, xenophobic fear and hatred all finally coalesce into the puffed-up tangerine spectre of Donald Trump—the…

You’re beautiful; this comment is really, really, great- it's the best comment. It’s making KINJA great again!

Once again for the cheap seats in the back: Gary Johnson originally won his seat as governor by a split in the progressive vote, and proceeded to tank the state with his “policies.” His policies were basically vetoing every piece of legislation that crossed his desk.

This comment deserves all the stars. It’s amazing. It is the best comment.

the GOP let the horse out of the barn a long time ago but only now is closing the doors. Except it wasn’t really a horse, but a mangy goat covered in rotten marmalade who thinks he’s a unicorn.

Calm down, Clint. You don’t need to attack every single person criticizing your skills personally through this alias.

This is the wonderful thing about the dismiss function — you can banish the trolls back to their rocks yourself. It’s great for the non-troll readers who don't have to wade through the bullshit, and it has the added benefit of making them absolutely livid.

You can remember him any way you choose. Most of us will try to forget him. Future generations will learn about a sad, bitter hustler-turned shitty C list actor who beat his wives, talked to a chair in front of millions, ranted about how appalling it was that society betrayed his ignorant racism, then died alone,…
