KinderS, OT [and I wish Kinja had DM but it doesn’t so here goes]: have you tried a different browser? I’ve been frustrated by latest Firefox and how it improves my life: [something in my settings] makes the browser unresponsive to half my clicks, so I go outside instead and get some valuable Vitamin D... or I open up

eta: sign seen posted on top of a literal pile of garbage, half-burned tires, etc, in someone’s front yard: “PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, PROUD TO VOTE TRUMP”

This is real? Oh, cripes it is. And Dr. Oz has been before Congress.

Maybe not 5/11 but it will be a Friday, after 4 pm Eastern time. Should we start a pool?

OT:

Sunk-cost fallacy?

This. Dr. Bornstein violated HIPAA regs when he spilled about Trump’s meds. That’s one thing. But Trump’s sharksuited errand boys took medical records by force from Bornstein’s office, and that’s a crime.

Marco Rubio wears heels. Politicians do. Marco’s aren’t six-inch heels, though.

Always in camera-shot.

Marco Rubio is having some second thoughts about those tax cuts he voted for, telling The Economist: “there’s no evidence whatsoever that the money’s been massively poured back into the American worker.”

Trump Insists He Will Not Apologize for Being Super-Racist Anything, Ever

The entire nation already knows Donald Trump doesn’t understand DACA.

I actually really like Sarah. I think she’s very resourceful. But she burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Like, maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s lies. It’s probably lies.

Am wondering how many conservatives would get the Aunt Lydia reference.

I have experienced it too, and it makes me sad and angry. I don’t have the words to pin it down because I am not trained in rhetoric. I think of it as “dog whistle” speech. There is a Wikipedia article (of course) for dog-whistle politics. It isn’t quite stochastic terrorism - that’s what Trump himself does—but it

Rap artist Kanye West tweeted: “You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him….” And Donald Trump (or maybe ghost-tweeter Dan Scavino, Jr.) replied: “Thank you Kanye, very cool!”

I was feeling sorry for Jackson—I think, since he was still in the service, he couldn’t say “no” once Trump’s rheumy eye fell on him— but you’re right. This guy is in the same class as Sean “Biggest Inaugural Crowd Ever” Spicer. “Lie for the Party.” Screw ‘em both.

And now you’ve got me actually looking forward to Trump and Kim Jong Un meeting face-to-face. Trump’s crappy 1980's “Business Power Plays” books aren’t going to work over there.

This post is a work of beauty.

Deserves a star, but missing the demeaning nick-names.
