Ok, take him out of the equation. He’s an outlier that draws a ton of deserved vitriol for his past hunting travels. That aside, you have people that would rather eat the meat they hunt than some prepackaged meat from the grocery store. To assume that factory meat is better tobhave because it’s more “readily available”

That’s a wonderfully privileged take you got there. Hunting for food is actually a good thing and keeps plenty of people fed either through their own efforts or donating the meat to food banks. Not everyone can go down the block want shop for the latest in factory farmed cow and chicken.

That looks like it belongs in an 80s movie depicting the 2000s. 

God, why can’t this toxic asshole fall into a river and drown like Narcissus did?

“Don’t make us choose between two entitled old white guys, with one being better only because he isn’t suffering from a personality disorder and dementia.” Right now, only old white guys are ahead of Trump in any significant polling. So how about you stop letting the perfect be the enemy of the good and pretending

Trump is a fucking moron who thinks he’s always the smartest guy in the room. So he thinks everyone else is dumber than him and refuses to listen to anyone. How many times does Trump say he is his own best advisor? It sure seems like Bolton may be on his way out too, at least I hope so.

God. I have it in my car.  SO BAD

Just like Ford's Sync.

This is the problem with both the media and blogs like this. They largely accepted Barr’s interpretation of the report before the report was even released. After creating a false impression of what was in the report, they then want Democrats to correct their mistake in explaining to the public about the crimes the

It’s a cult. No amount of talking about income inequality or healthcare plans or abortion compromises or anything will get these people out of the cult. They are lost. They will call us socialists and race traitors and baby killers no matter what. Fight for the people not in the cult with bold policies and by speaking

Really doubling down on that whole “using Jews as a shield for racist authoritarian politics” tactic huh? Not sure that’s going to end as well as the GOP hopes. Even members of the establishment Jewish groups that tend to be politically risk-averse and willing to condone anti-Muslim hate seem to be getting antsy. Not

“Look at what you made me do.”

He’s working Pelosi over? This is a huge political gift to Pelosi. Pelosi made a huge, unforced error belittling these four, and the news cycle was all about the resulting Democratic infighting. Now, the cycle is all about Trump’s racism, and Democrats are basically united again. This is not Trump getting one over on

On avoiding Rafa on clay: Admittedly, I am biased toward Fed....but I have always said that much of the narrative around this rivalry hinges on whether or not Federer is good enough on clay to advance far enough to lose to Nadal. I would love to see how people talked about Federer and this rivalry if he had been like

Love your tennis coverage, Giri. I’m not really seeing how Nadal being difficult to finish was so noteworthy, though. As you said, it looked like Federer was being a little too cautious while trying to close it out and Nadal hammered some mistakes. He’s really, really good. That’s what really, really good tennis

Carroll sounds absolutely believable in both the context of her situation, the fallout, and the warnings folks gave her. I would not doubt her in the least, and I would carry that flag.

How I envision this went:

But just look at the hooting piglets in red hats who still line up to devour his slop. They are a threat to all good and decent people.

Trump had a major advantage in 2016 that he doesn’t have in 2020 - lack of a record. Given the anti-establishment mood the country is in, Trump was the ultimate outsider - a guy with a shitload of money that wasn’t in politics. That resonated with a lot of people. Now he’s the President, with a real record to run
