My best friends have posited a theory. When you get elected president, one of the first things that happens is you get a visit from “Charlie,” this deep undercover operative who has ALL the horrible news about what’s really going on. “Charlie” takes the POTUS-elect into a little room and tells POTUS all the horrible…

You know what would have made this more powerful? If they HADN’T LET TRUMP HOST AN ENTIRE SHOW LAST YEAR

Kate McKinnon is an openly LGBT woman, and one could argue that the rhetoric of the Trump/alt-right has been more vitriolic towards those folks (actually, one hardly has to argue the point as there’s already some discussion about going after gay marriage in some circles). So no, I think Kate was the perfect choice.

Loved how she slowed down and tearfully savored that last stanza:

I donated to planned parenthood and then got a lecture from a family member about dead babies. So I donated again, double my original amount, in said family member’s name.

It’s like when Nigel Farage admitted that there wouldn’t actually be £350m extra for the NHS.

You missed my 11 point plan:

I personally can’t wait for him to come face to face with Merkel. She could crush him with her pinky.

I’m so upset for Hillary. I can’t even imagine what it must feel like to lose to him.

Have people just forgotten that Clinton won the nomination by more than three million votes? Nothing was handed to her. She earned it fair and square.

I just... I don’t get what’s happening in the US. I’m so angry right now I can’t stop shaking. Even if Trump is struck by lightning tomorrow and as a result his entire personality changes and he becomes the greatest President your country has ever had, you’ll still have voted (overwhelmingly?) for a man who admitted…

I’m not a huge cry-er. I take things on the chin and move on. I felt such immense pride casting my vote for such a qualified and amazing woman earlier today. I stopped and took the moment in. I immediately saved my I voted sticker.

I feel like this has irreparably damaged the office of POTUS, tbh. It used to be prestigious, and you had to work for it for decades, postition yourself, gain knowledge and skill and directly-related experience. Now we’ve elected a reality tv star with no ability to form a coherent paragraph, much less policy, and…

You’ve marched right on to the bargaining stage, then? I’m still grappling with denial.

I give him three months before he goes, “Fuck this. I am outta here.” This is a man who has been handed everything to him on a silver platter his entire life. He didn’t have to roll up his sleeves and work his knuckles to the bone for anything. And now he is going to take what is arguably the most stressful and…

I’ve already posted this elsewhere, but here it goes again, with updated numbers, because it will never be too much:

God

In 2000 people were worried about stupidity taking power and slowing social change. It wasn’t nearly as disappointing as the idea of hate taking power and reversing civil rights.

Worse than 2000 by leaps and bounds.

There’s a lot of people out there, that just aint gonna vote for a woman.
