Watching Jim Comey right now and nodding along.

He needs therapy. And a dictionary.

I found myself often defending the technocratic nature of Hillary Clinton a lot last year, and I’ve drunk my own Kool-Aid so to speak. I understand the need for personal charisma and messaging, but I am so, so tired of it. I want a wonky, hard-working, pragmatic leader who compromises and ends up pissing me off. I’m…

It’s because it’s not cool to be SEEN liking extremely capable women who have been the subject of so many “but is she likeable?” thinkpieces. Voters are basically 8th-graders at heart when it comes to giving due respect to that nerdy girl in the cafeteria.

You’re right. Carter has been the model ex-president, accumulated a fortune through writing prolifically rather than speechifying for bankers. That’s true. But the party never forgave him for losing reelection as an incumbent. Those are two different things.

Elect a lying racist ignoramus who brings alongs his asshole buds to DC and you get this type of a shitstorm--duh.

My sister, who is an accomplished negotiator, says that the meaning of ‘compromise’ is ‘nobody gets exactly what they want.’ It would be good to review this definition in light of our recent Presidential election and what people voting for Stein/Bernie accomplished.

They deserve your support only if they adhere to the very highest professional standards -

It’s the ole’ Grifters ploy to make suckers think they’re something they are not. Like father, like daughter.

Yes, I get that in a normal, professional advisor capacity the client doesn’t have to take the advice. But their relationship is... let’s say not normal. Besides, she’s described as her father’s “most influential advisor” who has already influenced his decisions. I’m just wondering if she’s influenced him, one way or…

And Stepford veneers. I mean. Those TEETH.

She may say words well, but I’m not convinced she really grasps what most of them actually mean.

Yeah, well, see, her brand of ‘feminism’ and ‘awareness’ come from the experiences of someone who’s never really had to worry about a single thing in their life

All I think when I see her is “complicit.”

But so far, and despite significant coverage about how the eldest Trump remains one of the president’s closest and most trusted advisers, little that Ivanka claims to lobby him on in private has materialized in his public policy.
