Yeah, but not when your metric is “defund public education, disenfranchise blacks/gays/women/immigrants, bring Gawd back into the public sphere”, alas.

You can’t make this about intelligence. They’ll just say something about elitism and being disconnected from real Americans and honest, hard-working people.

Testifying in front of congress could be interesting if it ever happens. His toddler word garbage will probably impress most of them though.

I’d say he’s getting quite a bit of negative consequences now in the form of bad press. But when that actually translates into something concrete in terms of aftereffects, well I’ll be popping the champagne right along side you.

It’s going to be so awesome when this guy faces even one negative consequence for his behavior.

And another mappitty-graphic I’m fond of:

Well, fuck. If he’s still that amped about his ‘win’, maybe we should’ve just given him a really nice trophy and told him that was all he would be getting. He apparently would’ve been just as happy.

I, for one, welcome our fabulous new extraterrestrial gay overlords.

Oh heavens no. We’ll all remember this time. This is the point in history that everyone will refer to as “Going full Trump.” When you’re just buying time because you know you’re fucked. This is a thing now. Its happening.

Trump’s biggest gift to our country is the efficiency with which he has laid bare how much of our politics are about eating shit. People that “respect our institutions” and keep voting for rich assholes to represent them have been eating well-seasoned shit their entire lives. Trump took away all your spices.

You’re right that a lot of our soldiers are mercenaries, and they just don’t know it because they’re mentally beaten down so that they just follow orders. But given that, I will always defend them. I also have many family that have served as regular military or in the National Guard, plus I feel safer knowing the…

Kudos to you for actually providing a summary with good points. Most other people would just give a shitty angry response. But you’re on the intertubes, so don’t expect people to act rationally when they’re anon.

Hmmm....something tells me Raptors don’t survive a scorched Earth approach.

I have no doubt that the opioid crisis is real and terrifying, but is this “fixing the opioid crisis” the new “sent to the cornfield”? Is this the new political wilderness? Granted, Jared’s been tasked with it as well when he’s not “fixing the Middle East” or selling diamonds in a mall, but still...

because the antidote to crushing poverty is more poor babies their mothers don’t want, obviously. Sluts need to learn.

Agreed that most of our wars have been used for spreading corporate influence and lining the pockets of the ridiculously wealthy. However... Blaming the troops for our country’s military agenda is like blaming a hammer for a bridge collapsing.

“left spluttering”...

He just released a short film that he wrote and directed starring Cedric The Entertainer and I’m amazed that Deadspin hasn’t brought back Grierson & Leitch to review it.

I did serve. In germany. At a time where german soldiers had not to go on foreign campaigns. This has changed.
