Reminds me of this (starts at about 1:30)

She is more moderate than her opponents (particularly Jane Kim). I live in SF and I’m very happy we have our first African American woman Mayor, but I wish her politics were more progressive. She’s seen as being on the side of tech & big-money donors, like Ed Lee was, and a lot of San Franciscans think that all of the…

I saw this today, but it’s even worse! He even showed his own NK-style propaganda video at the summit! Even the reporters thought it was from NK at first until the version in English played.

Yeah, I see what you mean and I do agree. I meant more along the lines of most people aren’t able to file bankruptcy multiple times, host a TV show, have failed venture after failed venture without suffering any real long-term consequences. Yeah, the people of NYC and the sane half of this country thinks he is and…

He’s already being surprisingly honest about how he will react if (when) this thing goes sideways. And Trump supporters are just covering their ears singing “la la la” as if it wasn’t totally predictable.

Now thats a wall that I think Mexico (and Canada at this point) would happily pay for. Hell, I’d go in on that wall.

True, I’ve never lived where it snows and the Great White North might be a pretty big change. Germany sounds lovely though.

I think the sane half of America would likely join you at this point... I love this country but I can’t defend this shit.

Ugh, you’re probably right.

“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” - LBJ

Hell, at this point, more than half of Republicans would support postponing the 2020 election if Trump proposed, either not realizing or not caring that we would essentially have a president for life at that point. These are really fucking scary times.

Yeah, if I was fleeing violence in Central America, I’d be devastated that I’d have to get all the way through the US before I could get to Canada. I’d absolutely rather try to go there than stay in the US at this point, but it’s a big country with a lot of newly-emboldened ICE and CBP thugs to get through first :/…

I think the fact that no one has really stood up and properly checked this dumb asshole is part of the problem - he’s been getting away with being a terrible person for decades without any real consequences. Now with the weight of the presidency behind him, he’s gone supernova asshole and there is nothing anyone can…

It’s also their zero-sum idea of how the world works. Merkel got it right - they think if someone else is winning, that means they’re losing. It’s a highly simplistic, cruel and short-sighted worldview and extremely damaging, as we’re seeing now. It’s also why they think immigrants coming here means they are losing…

Sadly, I know you’re right, but you already hear some stories about a small town somewhere where there is an immigrant family that has been there for a decade+, well-liked and respected in the community, then ICE shows up and deports one or both of the parents. Of course all of the white people in town are shocked,…

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort faces a new charges of witness tampering and obstructing justice, along with his former associate, Russian citizen Konstantin Kilimnik. In the indictment, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team alleges that Manafort, who is under house arrest, and Kilimnik attempted to…

There really is a tweet for every occasion.

Aside from the unimaginable cruelty and just barbaric treatment of these immigrants, what the MAGA hat idiots (who think this is just fine and dandy) don’t understand is if we make this acceptable to do to any population, it’s not outside the possibility that it will happen to them. They’re already accidentally…

American’s worship capitalism above all else, and as long as there is a buck to made from gathering and selling our data, unfortunately the politicians aren’t going to do shit.
