When you're too good at memes.

The reason anyone shies away from calling Trump racist is that you would have to conclude that his supporters admire and appreciate his racism, which would mean it would be reasonable to define them as racist, as well.

Just popping in to say I absolutely love him. He didn’t invent the “straight man and funny man” at the same time, but he perfected it.

It’s impossible to take your argument seriously when you compare a school board debating on what to do with an old mural on a wall to the Taliban destroying ancient statues with heavy weapons.

Just a reminder from the greys: Bari Weiss is just awful. She holds morally repugnant, repellent views that she barely conceals, but people like that are a dime a dozen. What stands out about her (and her fellow conservatives at the NYT, Bret Stephens and David Brooks) is just sloppy, lazy, and phoned-in their writing…

You keep explaining this as if it were a deep, novel insight - Everybody knows this. We’re not talking about representatives and senators from other states, we’re talking about the party leadership.

You don’t understand that passing legislation I prefer is only half of the job of a Democratic representative/senator; the other half is obstructing policies I’m against (like, say, funding privately owned and run camps where the administration is sending migrants and mistreating them, to the point where children are…

If he was racist, sure.

I’m getting “never” right now. No social programs, and a blank check for the Republican president’s worst (and only) program.

There are two reasons I’m registered Democrat: to stop GOP policy, and to implement progressive policy.

Trump, clearly, is extremely mad about these leaks and the data they contain.

We already have a large number of government rules, social and cultural rules, and a host of reliable human cognitive failures that distort prices and create arbitrary barriers to supply. The landlord s and property owners themselves act to squelch competition.

Yes that’s why you make the rules universal, then people don’t have to fight, bribe, grift, etc.

This is why people fight like Dothraki on meth to get an apartment that’s still under rent control - because it’s bad.

“Why does every one of you idiots keep asking me about Jaws, the killer shark terrorizing our fair village?!?!?”

Just popping in to point out that Wellspring depleting all of United Sporting Co’s reserves (and, presumably, any other cash they had, and perhaps selling every asset that isn’t bailed down) is not “mismanagement”, it’s what private equity companies do, its the reason they exist. Don’t sell your company to them and…

Perhaps more that she is advising him on gender issues, and he seems to be utterly clueless about it.

...and I think the thing that hamstrings Middle Eastern countries more than almost anything else is that they tend not to tap into half their population’s potential and intelligence. When half the people are women and they’re just not being used for the betterment of society, you’re not going to be a dynamic…

Here’s the thing - if you and Pelosi are generally right, the Democrats (especially Pelosi and other high profile, centrist Democrats) have to back off on rhetoric like “Trump is a crook”, “Trump is dangerous”, “Trump is corrupt”, “Trump is unusually, uniquely, peculiarly bad”, walk it back, and refocus their…

If “American Psycho” grew old.
