Nah - it’s a combination of undercover establishment Repubs who want to take Trump down, and the sort of horrible people Trump hires (narcissistic self-promoting sociopaths who will do anything for attention) who are doing it. I think the establishment Republican end of things have been being extraordinarily careful…

Whoever is paying, Trump’s companies will get the money.

Yes, this is how DC works. The political staffers and the lifetime government workers often hang out in the same bars and the same social circles as the reporters who cover DC. You buy a guy a few drinks in a bar and suddenly he is telling you about how awful his boss is. . . Oh, is it okay if I let the public know,…

Do you mind if I fit it with turnstiles and charge for admission? That way it becomes self-funding!

You’re not wrong to be cynical about this. I certainly remember (and I’m sure you do, too) how swiftly Cheney and his henchmen rewrote policy to accommodate no bid contracts for cronies.

If all they have to do is be smarter than Sean Spicer they will remain the greatest American mystery since the unknown soldier in Arlington.

Will he offer his own company pennies on the dollar? Sweet schadenfreude if little Donny’s company was bankrupted by his own practices.

Randi: this whole project (including the wall prototypes) is now in the arena regulated by the Federal Acquisition Regulation. The FAR is famously prescriptive, with little latitude for someone with a political agenda to interfere with awards on major projects. And losing “offerors” are willing to protest unfair…

that’s not what charm looks like, that’s what desperate self-loathing and drug addiction looks like.

The image of Maher as “Islamophobic” is based primarily on such episodes as his (and fellow atheist Sam Harris’) confrontation with Ben Affleck in which Maher and Harris said that Western liberals were hypocritical because they agreed with and championed Maher and other atheists when they said aspects of Christian…

He used to mock gamers relentlessly as basement dwellers. That is until gamergate, and all those angry gamers went after women. Then all of a sudden Milo was one of the guys, taking on the evil feminists who want to ruin gaming for men. And the gamers? Well they welcomed him with open arms, because they all hate women…

He hates all religion. He takes issue with ones that are leading to more violence than others. I don’t understand why people think that’s weird. I think last week or so he said more people would consider Mormonism a problem if sects of it were forming terrorist groups and bombing buildings. That’s a valid point.

I’m not a fan of Islam, either. That’s different from the ignorant, Orientalist, colonialist disdain championed by Milo and Maher.

You mean the one his overlords GOT killed? That one?

He also seems to think coretta Scott king is alive.

I have a friend who does this. She lives the ultimate academic lefty life and doesn’t talk a lot about her time in the military, so when people make assumptions she shuts it right the hell down.

So I assume that right after he said that he chastised his own party for repeatedly using the men killed in Bengazi politically. Right?

debate slavery

Maybe in honor of the dead serviceman, we can get the truth of how fucked up his death was?

Seriously? A press secretary talks this way?
