This may make me sound like a person wearing a tinfoil hat, but....

Look at the person on your left. Look at the person on your right. One of you supports Trump. The mind reels. Tens of millions of people apparently think he’s doing a good job. At this point, if you still support him, it’s because you are a fundamentally damaged human being. It means you are racist and/or ignorant

It’s this tribalism that is the reason the fact that Trump said, “The best thing we can do, politically speaking, is let Obamacare explode. It’s exploding right now.” and so few people batted an eye. This is the elected leader of the United States who claims that national health care is in crisis, and that the best

Speaking of making Trump mad, early voting starts today in GA-6. If you’re in East Cobb and Sandy Springs, go vote for Jon Ossoff! I can’t because I’m a mile outside the district, but my high school is — and last week I registered several of my seniors. Also, this tweet delighted me today:

Trump’s approval rating is approaching the percentage of fuckwits in America. They may only be a percentage or two apart, but I doubt his approval will drop below, say 33%. Those idiots love that he lies all the time, love that he’s destroying America, and love love love being assholes just like him.

On Saturday it was reported (on AM Joy) that Rep. Devin Nunes has his own deep connections to Putin and a Russian oligarch who is the distributor for his vineyard. (This should obviously disqualify him from chairing the Trump-Russia investigation).

I remember reading that she did it for the economy—since when have Republicans done anything good for the economy? Their whole philosophy is if you’re poor, fuck you.

I didn’t think the leopards would eat MY face, sobs woman who voted for Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party.

Good. I feel no sympathy for that family. You let your mom vote for Trump knowing your father was “an illegal?” WTF did you think would happen? “Oh we are good people!” LOL but you broke the law to get here! Isnt that what you always say? He should have gotten in line and just came here legally. Isnt that what you

Not only that, but ICE is going for low hanging fruit. People in courthouses, women in shelters, people on the street, anyone who “looks illegal” and is driving a car, etc.

And Helen Beristain’s reaction was telling, too. After the shock of her husband, “one of the good guys”, being arrested for deportation wore off, she of course started lobbying and getting lawyers to get the deportation order reversed. Does she blame Trump? Of course not!

Ok, but she’s not wrong on that last one. He has done more in a month, it just all happens to be horrendously awful, expansively damaging racist/xenophobic horse shit.

That story infuriates me. The whole community is trying to be supportive of the husband (which is awesome) and are shocked — SHOCKED! — that he is being deported, but the region also voted overwhelmingly for 45.

Seriously (not that you could get hired for a job you were qualified for) but if you got a new job and then 2 months later you still were flailing around like an idiot and had no clue what was going on or what you were doing, while breaking the law multiple times, what job would just go yeah OK.

These people haven’t figured out the American Dream is dead. Donald is a great man because he has billions in their minds. No one told these people that he’s rich because his dad gave him millions of dollars and Trump is great at scamming people out of money then not paying his debts. Sure, I’d have a million or 2 as

These people who are basically implying that Trump can’t get stuff done on his own seem to have forgotten his whole I alone can fix it crap.

Still, his approval rating being in the 30's three months in is unprecedented and very telling. But you can fool some of the people all the time so there will be diehards. You can generally count on a base of at least 40% to support you no matter what, on either side, and this has been the case going back to the

“Joleen Dudley, a real estate agent in Canton, Georgia, told STAT that we just need to give Trump some time to settle into his new job.

Joleen Dudley, a real estate agent in Canton, Georgia, told STAT that we just need to give Trump some time to settle into his new job. “He isn’t one to give up, or he wouldn’t be a billionaire.”

Is there a reason they only interviewed people in their 70s and 80s?
