I don’t have to provide evidence; Trump is your evidence and he’s sitting right in front of you Tweeting bullshit rather than taking the time to learn anything about the job he now has.

Bernie Sanders spent the Democratic primary railing against Clinton as someone who wasn’t progressive enough (how many times did I have to hear him bitch about the importance of $15 min wage vs. $12?), sold Jon Orsoff down the river as someone who wasn’t a true “progressive”, but now suddenly he and his base are…

What you call “purity bullshit” women call “agency over my corporeal self.” Or, put another way, what you would have called “purity bullshit” 170 years ago was also known as “supporting the ownership of other human beings.”

Tell that to the Bernie stans who would not vote for Hillary.

My big issue with the Mello thing is how it relates to Orsoff and what that says about the biggest problem with progressive purity tests: who designs the test? Because whoever does the designing is going to be biased, no matter what.

Almost? More terrifying, I’d say, given what he’s voted for in the past and how he’s already trying to assume control and represents none of the marginally positive populist things Trump at least gave lip service to.

President Pence (shudder) is pretty much fucking Handmaid’s Tale as a legislative playbook.

I teach high school government in Baltimore. I can tell you my 17 year olds are FIRED UP for 2018 midterm elections. Which is something I never thought I would say.

Can we just have a live feed of the moment the White House hands President Fuckface Von Clownstick his official and only Presidential mobile phone: complete with no apps, no texting, no incoming calls, restricted web browser and ready for it everyone... NO TWITTER!
What will he do? Will he implode once he finds he has…

Frankly, I find Pence more terrifying. The Orange Menace doesn’t actually care about things like gay marriage and you can bet he’s paid for mistresses to have abortions. No matter what he said in speeches, when it comes to individuals rights he doesn’t give a crap one way or the other, but Pence does. Pence will go to…

I find Pence a bit more scary. Like he might tear his face off and reveal something else underneath.

I think you’re spot on. When he first entered the race I was convinced it was a joke - he was doing it for the attention and bravado. I think the more he attention he received the more he ran with it and just couldn’t ever find the out.

All racists, misogynists are scared, pathetic and little once they come face to face with which they swear to hate.

I really think it’s the most elaborate prank joke in history. Before he even ran for president, he always tried to get attention with whatever viral craze or saying some stupid shit. Then everyone online would call him out on it, but he still ended up succeeded, because he made us not forget about Donald Trump.

Then…

Part of me doesn’t think he’ll make it to January 19th. Someone close to me worked staff in DC, and he says the president’s life is NOT his own, and the “handling” has started. Trump will balk at being told where to be, how to travel, rules of law, etc, and he’ll melt down. But only a small hopeful part of me that…

The cognitive dissonance required to tell someone who voted for Hillary “fuck you for electing Trump”--particularly coming from someone who is defending not fucking voting--is absolutely staggering.

Oh, so you’d be the guy who shows up to a party you were invited to help plan, didnt, and criticizes the food and decorations. Got it. People love you, I swear.

Here’s another patently true assertion: Those of us who chose not to vote for Trump will likely still be blamed for whatever comes to pass in the next few years, as too many people have a tendency to take a part-for-whole view of every group process, and will assume that because Trump won the electoral vote (he…
