To be fair, it is big news that a Republican administration managed to screw the economic pooch so hard it’s gone from “massively extractive and unequal” to teetering on the edge of disaster in their first term. Even W. managed to hold on until year 7.

Man, this is such a pitiful attempt at deflecting, and imagined “sowing of discord.” Jesus Christ on a vintage pogo stick, it even brings up Clinton, from three years ago.

Now you’re getting it! /s

He would 100% try to run again.

I find it interesting that they also got told, at this mandatory event, that they need to elect more union leaders who will support the person who got their employer to make them stand for hours without lunch and use them as props.

I don’t know what it is about that statement, but that is hard-hitting.

This is a series of decisions he’s making to intentionally hurt people, not a diagnosis. 

I’m going back to Season 1 of Justified, and it’s reminding me of how DAMN good Goggins is.

I’m going to counter by saying that the transplants we’re getting are at least 50% conservative as shit. Like, that one guy from upstate New York, or Jersey, or Pennsylvania or Indiana? We’ve got cities brimming with them. They’re about as progressive as the buggy whip industry.

Welcome back, with another ahistorical, ridiculous lukewarm take. 

I’m not trying to come off as giving him shit over his weight (there are 1000 things you could land on that make him a shitty, stupid worm of a human being that are better). Like, he’s a wannabe fascist strongman, his weight is the least important thing about him. The only thing that makes it an issue that he’s…

I’m not sure? The first sentence doesn’t seem to mean anything, other than “Hello, CLEVELAND!” so the people have something they can react enthusiastically to? And then taking full credit.

I’m about to read the article, but wanted to take a moment to predict that Dan Forest is going to say some really dumb, backward things as part of his semi-official gubernatorial campaign.

Trump supporters I know are about half rural/suburban folks with high school or some college and household incomes under $75k, and half people who can take leaves of absence from work and make good money and live in nice, 99% segregated neighborhoods.

Dear Paul in the grays:

I used to know of a bar that practiced that philosophy on its beer taps. Until the Health Dept. found out, and they had to shut down to (I assume) fill the entire building with bleach for 3-5 business days.

Hell, that’s a thing he could probably actually make solid progress on in under a week if he put in the effort.

A bit off-topic, but does anyone else find that Eric Trump looks like someone’s half-assed attempt to make their Skyrim character look like Gary Busey?

I’m trying to remember if I’ve ever met a “law and order” person who both knew and gave a shit about the “law” piece. They mostly view the law as a tool to manipulate, and (occasionally) an obstacle to be overcome.

Gosh, that’s a long series of incorrect statements and misplaced blame and not a little genuine racism.
