I actually think it’s kind of both. Yes, he is pretty much as dumb as his harshest critics believe he is. Yet he does have a masterful ability to manipulate the press and his followers. But that’s only true because (much of) the press and all of his followers are really fucking easy to manipulate and have a hole in…

One of the thoughts that I’ve hated more than anything over the last 300 million years it feels like Trump has been President, is the amount of credit he gets for being some next level supervillain genius who’s masterfully manipulating the press and his believers.

Seriously the movies they are going to make about all this crazy bullshit 15 years from now are going to be incredible. It just doesn’t seem like we live in reality anymore. How in the holy hell does she expect ANYONE to believe this bullshit?

She paid $233 WITH INSURANCE? I’m flabberghasted at how utterly FUCKED the system is at perceiving who is committing which crimes in this story!

This is pure corruption. He wants the wall as a monument to himself, and he’s so desperate he’s willing to bypass the one system that’s supposed to keep him in check by declaring a national emergency. It’s an abuse of power, all so one man, one man obsessed with himself, can have something physical that people will…

This is coming from a man who is banned from all US banks because he won’t pay back the many, many loans he took from them.

Dont disagree, but think much of Trumps current money is coming from Russia.

Once, when I was way behind in my mortgage payments, Wells Fargo was nice enough to offer me four clothes. They were really almost pushy about it.

Which is why we need to tax capital gains at a progressive schedule exactly equal to the income tax, in addition to AOC’s 70% marginal tax rate on incomes that exceed $10 million, because, in fact, it is possible to do two things at once. Try again, troll.

Your response was amazing. Their argument is so condescending, “Smart little girl, maybe she’ll be something when she figures out how to message so perfectly that not even internet pedants can dissect it.” People need to stop attacking anyone brave enough to speak up. Also, STOP DEFENDING BILLIONAIRES PEOPLE. They’ll…

No, her statement in the quote isn’t really wrong (not in spirit at least). The point is that we are failing so many people precisely BECAUSE of the way our system allows others to accumulate so much wealth. You can’t separate the two. The fact that Jeff Bezos has $140 Billion is not unrelated to the fact that more…

It’s absurd to me that you hear a broad message about morality and principles and totally discount it as a messaging failure because she didn’t go over every penny of this “plan” which isn’t a plan, just a conversation about principles. Meanwhile all the politicians we have ever seen do that exact thing but with much…

She’s playing my song.

Pence looks and acts like a guy who knows the bill for his deal with the devil is coming soon and he’s just going through the motions until the hammer falls. 

Here’s the most surprising thing Trump has tweeted today: In an attempt to tamp down far-right criticism of his proposal from Ann Coulter and others that he was offering amnesty (absolutely verboten to right wingnuts), he tweeted “No, Amnesty is not a part of my offer. It is a 3 year extension of DACA. Amnesty will…

The dumb fuck couldn’t even get his own party to build his wall when they had total control of the government for the first two years of his term.

“I want to burn your house down.”

I say they throw together a single payer health plan (before insurance companies get any say) and tell Trump he can have his wall as soon as he signs it.

Which in theory, would provide Congress time to hammer out a permanent solution for DREAMers.

Goddammit I love that song. What is/where is the moomoo land, anyway? Some questions will never get answered.
