I have to do something amazing in the next four years so that I can loudly and publicly refuse to meet Trump.

I’ve been thinking, in general, about the average people who get to meet the president. Usually it’s an honor, and is because you either did something cool or something terrible happened. I cannot imagine it being an honor to meet Trump, and I would be really pissed if my chance to meet a president happened and it…

That’s good, I expect him to go more whiny though.

3 am Saturday Morning.

G.O.B.s of money.

This should have been an option. Sure I’ll watch it eventually when it’s incredibly convenient for me, like when it’s on cable.

If he didn’t want to die, he shouldn’t have been so easy to throw.

Stadium Seats extend above the floor level, thus blocking a straight kicking plain. Only way your feet get involved is if you try to stomp on your victim and then you’re putting all of your momentum forward and down. Bad news, baby, you just entered my zone and you’re goin flyin.

Off topic, but I’m at a Sixers game a few weeks ago. There were about 15,000 there to see them play the Hawks, probably based on a combination of Embiid fans, and the fact that people who bought packages to see the Cavs/Warriors/Thunder were forced into including the game in their package. Time comes for the national…

Thanks Mr. Tomsula

I’m a Colts season ticket holder and this year there’s a couple who sits behind me at every game, and they obsess over which players aren’t standing for the anthem. Usually during the anthem. Yes, they talk during the whole anthem about how disrespectful it is to sit during the anthem.

I’m not a Christian, but if any movement ever in Christianity has been a shameless sham and scam it’s the prosperity gospel. It’s like the opposite of everything Jesus stood for.

And fuck the prosperity gospel, that Christianized version of The fucking Secret. I may have grown up Jewish, but I know damn well Jesus was about giving your money to the poor, not trying to make yourself rich at the expense of others.

I think it’s a combination of a few things:

Exactly. I can respect someone I disagree with (I’ve actually followed Evan McMullin on Twitter...I don’t agree with anything but his love of country and willingness to speak out, plus being CIA, he KNOWS SHIT). I have to remind myself every once and awhile that Scalia and RBG were biffies. Those three, I hope,…

There are few conflict of interest laws that apply directly to the President or Vice-President, unlike (for example) Cabinet positions - which are appointed. It’s somewhat difficult for Congress to legislate this, because of the separation of powers.

The President isn’t allowed under the Constition to get any gift…

It’s clear that his whole administration is going to be filled with corrupt cronies who will use their political positions to line their own pockets at our expense.

Yup. He’s going to continue as Executive Producer. My wife said, “he can’t, right?” My response was, if it’s just a custom and not a law (releasing your taxes, keeping your offspring out of meetings with international leaders, etc.), Trump believes it doesn’t apply to him. If it is a law (emoluments clause, conflict…

It is the latter, darling.

Much like Nixon before him, he has made clear that he believes “it’s not illegal if the president does it.” Of the two governmental bodies charged with proving him wrong about that and keeping him in check, one (the legislative arm) is now overpopulated with the sycophants of the party that elected him, and the other…
