RIP Georgia Dome. You were almost old enough to rent a car through most major car rental agencies.

Here’s the thing, though: It’s honestly not hard at all to make a version of this that’s faithful to the spirit of Cable’s origin that isn’t too complicated.

wow he will play catch with his kids he must really love that shit

haha, i’m gonna drop dead from stress pretty soon, but thanks

I think you’ve described their thinking very well. I also think, well, this:

I think that Democrats have calculated that allowing Trump to appoint incapable stooges to these cabinet posts will improve Democrats chances at winning offices in 2018 and 2020. Basically, it’s the Republican playbook of 2009, just instead of having to obstruct the Republicans to make the public blame them for

It’s kind of a problem when one reads the headline and starts to rattle off in their brain a list of sycophant journalists to which it might be referring.

Oh man I was so sure from the headline this was gonna be Cillizza.

Literally heard a lender’s commercial this week saying “Your home is your ATM!”

God, those commercials are awful. They almost make the Countrywide Financial ads from 2005 to 2007 look responsible. At least those fraudulent assholes weren’t trying to entice 20somethings to take out 6-figure debts on a freaking phone app RIGHT NOW QUICK BEFORE THE OTHER PEOPLE GET IT QUICK DON’T THINK CLICK IT NOW

Faraday Future/Pence 2020!

It benefits a teeny tiny portion of society - say 1%?

It’s not sarcasm if you got past little baby first year econ micro/macro in college. Externalities and social costs aren’t factored into immediate growth measurements.

No no no, you don’t get it. We need to increase our use of oil, but decrease our use of foreign oil. We need those oil drilling and fracking jobs to Make America Great Again, but we need them in America.
Decreasing oil and gas usage? Why do you hate Making America Great Again? Go back to Russ ... er ... Venezuela you

How is setting rules to make cars get higher gas mileage a bad thing for the consumer?

At my children’s school, there is one dad who picks up his kid in a classic car - I think it’s a Mustang, but it could be a Chevy or something. Either way, when I pass by it when he’s starting it up and idling in line, I can smell the unburnt fuel and other lovely toxins it’s spewing into the air. Yeah, I can’t

Cutting corporate tax to 10-15%? On what planet has this ever worked to benefit society?
