With the elected ones, that helps figure out who should be voted out of office. Those supported by power brokers/lobbyists who go on the record with views that don’t match up with the majority can also be voted out (like those being called out for taking campaign contributions).
It is absolutely classic narcissism. A true narcissist simply cannot accept that they are less than perfect. So they must make up crazy stories to explain away any of their flaws (even normal flaws). And they shy away from trying new things as they won’t be any good at them at first.

Ok so now we know who all the hypocrites are. What now? These people still have the right to vote. Knowing who they are doesn’t mitigate their power.
Yes, it is sickening. The only good thing is that the hypocrites are exposing themselves so we can see exactly who (and what) they are, and where their real priorities lie. Back in the day, there wasn’t as much video as we have now. Still, it bothers me when you show voters clips of politicians and power brokers lying…
I look at the Alabama special election and the Governor’s comments about supporting Roy Moore instead of his opponent. She essentially said she would rather support a child molester than a Democrat. Think about that—partisanship has gotten so bad now that an otherwise perfectly fine individual is being compared…
What’s the old George Carlin joke? “Think of how stupid the average person is, then realize half of them are stupider than that?”
But yeah, agree on all your points.
Yeah, it’s been a real lesson about the pitfalls of sexism in a system where we don’t elect presidents by using the popular vote. For too many, it wasn’t about his lack of qualifications, it was that they refused to elect a woman. If it wouldn’t depress me, it could be interesting to look back at the whole ABC…
Like, wouldn’t “extremely high level” be the highest level we have, namely him? If he meets with Kim, do the talks become “the tippy-toppest level talks”?
The other day he was talking about high level talks with north Korea and made sure to emphasize that they were extremely high level talks.
Even inc-est. Theory checks out.
There have been so, so many things in this administration that I never thought I’d see in the Presidency, no matter how awful a President we have. He is utterly classless, crass, undignified, stupid, thin-skinned, racist, foolish, brash, hot-headed, disinterested in carrying out the duties of his office, and totally…
You had me at “yeah, what a dick”
Can we put him in a Super Max then? Those are the worest (yes I know...) prisons around.
Trump’s stupidity is interesting, from a historical perspective. In British aristocratic circles, it was long considered a sign of “good breeding” to be stupid. Aristos would say, “oh but I’m a frightful idiot” whenever a topic turned heavy. The implication was that the speaker didn’t need to learn or retain…
He’s so hung up on everything he’s associated with being the “-est” - biggest, greatest, most amazingest - that when becomes the most jailest president ever, it’s going to be hilariously ironic.
Yeah, what a dick.
