Karen Pence did just float her brand-new Twitter account a few days back. If you’re up for wasting a few precious minutes, the responses to her fledgling Tweets have been gold and will boost your faith in the American people just a bit.

What’s really sad is that this isn’t from Trump and it’s not a verbatim transcript, it’s the official summary memo written by his staff who were listening to it as it happened. You can bet that the call was much, much less comprehensible and his incoherent use of English much worse.

I keep telling the trolls et al that the real beauty of this is that you can very well detest Joe Biden (I do too) and it makes no difference whatsoever to the crime Trump committed. Sure, go ahead, investigate Biden by all means — but that doesn’t in the least exonerate the treasonweasel we have installed as president…

My favorite thing right now is the scuttlebutt on the DC insider sites that the whistleblower is actually ... John Bolton. I’d be very surprised, but how utterly delightful would that little tidbit be, eh?

Collins (spit) is my Senator and I just fired off a nice blistering note to her demanding that she support impeachment. I look forward to the inevitable reply from a staffer that details how very delighted Susan is with all of Trump’s many landmark administrative successes.

Really hard to believe there are any undecided voters left alive in America at this point, but yes, I agree.

Not really — I detest Biden and have no intention of defending him or the nepotism his kid’s putative success depended on in any way. The thing is, to support the impeachment of Trump, I don’t have to.

Who said it should not be investigated? Investigate away! You have the facts laughably wrong, but regardless.

I mean, Trump literally is a bad 80's mobster, so it all makes sense.

Not to be too much of a broad-generalization bore, but I’ve taught at a number of fancy-pantsy ivy league schools and had the scions of the very rich in my classroom— a depressing number of these legacy kids are mirror images of Justice Rapey O’Kavenaugh et al. They sincerely feel they deserve to skate along and get…

GoFundMe would have your back in a hot second, I wouldn’t sweat it.

That had to play a big role — I’ve been perusing the various reactionary news organs and the trolls appear to be at something of a loss when you point out that their only rebuttal of “But Biden!” is utterly irrelevant - doesn’t matter even if Biden is 100% corrupt, Trump still broke the law in trying to extort another…

And he is completely representative of millions of conservative Americans. And they vote.

I genuinely would like the guy to be fired from a canon, is all I’m saying here.

Same rich-guy-who-never-really-worked-a-day-in-his-life modus that explains why they lobbied to repeal the ACA for 7 full years, finally got a chance to put through a full replacement and could do nothing but scribble a few incoherent tax cuts on a martini-sodden napkin the night before it was due.

Yeah, you’re probably right. Speaking of sweet little things and election-year pain, witness this total Joe Biden horror show:

As a Boomer (last cohort year!) I should probably resent this but I hang my head in shame. Although to be quite honest, what I see is my Silent Generation Trumper parent getting out the checkbook — what with folks like Stephen Miller on the job, I don’t think any of our generations need be very proud.

Ah, but you radically underestimate the even greater draw of martyrdom for the entire conservative right. To be the victim is their most cherished dream; it’s preached in their churches and sung in the pages of their tabloids. There is nothing that unites authoritarian bullies more than being able to claim they’re…

Where you err, I imagine, is in assuming there exist any Republicans who don’t already know and remain completely untroubled by the fact that Trump has done some seriously bad shit.

Preferably some twee swill about how suffering makes you a stronger character.
