I think, with the denial of his Twitter account, you are seeing one of the few punishments that actually matters to Trump. Next would be news people refusing to take his calls. “No, I feel no need to interview you Donald, you’re just not relevant any more. As a nation we’ve moved on from you.”

Ooh, this is a fun thought experiment. Trump? Have him surrounded by people who ignore him and/or laugh at him. Her? Stick her in a shoddy studio apartment with crappy furniture, some kind of mindless, low-wage job, and no access to anything elite/luxurious while surrounded only by incredulous people.

they don’t think they did anything wrong

I dunno...I’d be willing to try locking the whole Trump family in a trailer park that they can’t leave, forcing them to live alongside a bunch of their followers for a few months. Of course it would only work if the rest of us were allowed to watch 24/7, Truman Show-style. 

Precisely. Because at the end of the day, they don’t think they did anything wrong. Their attitude is the foundation of this country.

If we’ve learned anything from the past 5 years it is that rich sociopaths should never have to face any consequences, because they’re just plain better people than the rest of us.

Yet, there’s plenty in it for her.
First, she will definitely get a sizable book deal since she the type of E! oddity pseudo-celeb that people love to read about.
Second, she’ll get plenty of image rehab as a payed guest on a variety of “comedian” hosted pop culture podcasts of interviews portraying her as a person who…

I think that her statement can be true and yet also flippant and remorseless. While prisons definitely need a massive overhaul and shift away from punishment and toward individualized rehabilitation, this particular woman is such a piece of work that I translate her little diatribe to: “Well, there was nothing in it…

The cruelty is the point. How many times do we have to be shown this before people accept that it’s true? A majority of people who become cops become cops because they want to be cruel with no consequences. 

Perez should fuck off, why is he still a thing?

He’s never been a pillar of the party but he is completely rabid and unhinged now. Something has happened here or else he really just lost whatever was left of his mind.

To be fair, Graham isn't wrong: this worthless, soulless grifter with bottled hair, capped veneers and a chinless, brainless husband whom she's just waiting on to die DOES represent the future of the Republican party.

Has there ever been a slimier little slug than Lindsey Graham? You’d think he’d be so exhausted, desperately scurrying around trying to be important and relevant somehow. Perennial sidekick to the schoolyard bully while always looking to see if there’s a bigger bully he can glom onto. 

That is too much legacy to put on a child. Maybe for a middle name though.

My tick phobia has reached such levels that lying in grass seems like terrifying, reckless behaviour..... Looks like heaven, though. I aspire to the day.

Why are they so bad at this? Because they don’t have to be good when acquittal has already been determined. The less that they speak, the sooner they can get to the vote.

Sometimes a specific angle is sufficient to create nightmares. Congratulations.

“Petty” is never to be avoided when applied against Ted Cruz, the midlife hipster blobfish. First it was the facial shrubbery, now this haircut? Can’t wait for the skinny jeans. Also we can all take joy in knowing that, no matter what, his own family is repulsed by him.

It is fascinating (in the deeply alarming kind of way) that Britney is subjected to this on the basis that she needs it, but men like Kanye West are just running wild through the world, bankrupting themselves, hurt themselves, etc.
