I imagine there’s are a wide swathe of Trump supporters who think he’s full of shit, but like him due to what they believe to be his take on militarism, taxes, abortion issues, racism, sexism, Islamophopia, homophobia and or xenophobia in general.

They make more money when they have better stories, so don’t know if they’re taking money directly ,but likely they all of the above.  Leverage may be a better word than friendship. At one point, having Harvey Weinstein owing you favors would have gotten you access to a lot of actors/directors. 

I know a sewing machine repairman, DC area.  He worked at a Hancock Fabric store, until the stores went out of business, now he’s freelance.  If there’s someone who does that near you, might be worth talking to. Good luck with things.

Also, if he’s financially inept and oblivious, he probably shouldn’t be in Congress, overseeing the nation’s finances. The party of personal responsibility strikes again.

They’ll put a rumor out that he was a liberal.  That’s what they did with the shooter in Las Vegas, and likely some will cling to that, even when it’s debunked.

Retired 70 year olds who never had to use a computer for their day job? Maybe. Former editor of an online journal (National Review Online), people who’ve had to get security clearance because he’s working for the White House and Director for the National Economic Council? He probably knows how to work the google. 

There are plenty who are book smart, but completely lack people skills.  Or who have smarts, and skills when they want to use them, but are fundamentally assholes.  They often have work environments where they’re treated with respect and deference that they may not deserve.

If you really want Togo there, I suppose you Congo there. 

So, for five minutes out of eight years, they were unseemly? I don’t know why you feel yourself an adequate judge over small children in a stressful environment, but if you’re going to, it’s bizarre to focus on that and not on the other 99.988811671% of their time in that situation. God thinks your focus is hinky, at

Starred for most of your comment, but I’d also give the Bush twins a pass, even if they were up to typical adolescent drug hijinks. The twins were gracious to the incoming Obama girls, and wrote them a nice letter giving them a heads up on what to expect, as well as giving a guided tour. 

Ok, among humans, the smaller ones are typically children. They act different from the grownups. Putting pressure on them to be perfectly well behaved all the time, especially when they’re constantly in the public eye, is often counterproductive towards their well being as adults. It’s one reason why a lot of child

It wasn’t the original intent, of course, but if Kobach and his ilk could tweak the law to make it more difficult for trans to vote, they may happily do so, as it would exclude some people who trend democratic, and it may have more value for them as a wedge issue.

I wish he could order Jeff Sessions imprisoned. 

It’s frightening that one of the forces safeguarding our democracy may be Trump’s incompetence and greed.

It’ll be the most photographed exhibit in his presidential library. The exhibit will have that issue of the magazine on display, along with a screen showing some of Ms. Daniel’s work, and another with Shark week. 

Maybe he’s asking his Russian handlers to do him another favor. 

Yes, and we can, with understanding and a relationship of established consent, grab our significant others by the significant bits. But we’d be cross if someone outside that relationship did so. Especially Trump.

Excellent point.
