Agreed, his befuddlement makes you momentarily forget that he is launching terrible policies that set back social progress by decades.

Do you enjoy watching the office? Or are you like me, and have to leave the room when someone is embarrassed on a sitcom? Trump doesn’t deserve to be president, but he is, and the cringeworthy moments are only going to grow. If he were an evil genius who seemed to be in control of the show (e.g. Steve Bannon), I…

Oh, im pretty sure it’s on there, even if it is not visible to the naked eye. Sally Yates took what would be routine turnover in a very important, but under the radar, position and through public action became a national news figure. If she isn’t running for senate or governor in two years in whatever state she’s…

I’m strangely starting to feel bad for him, he is becoming a pathetic figure. If only we weren’t all trapped in his nightmare...

Both sides of this drive me crazy. Of course people who have dropped out of school can learn as adults and have sophisticated political views. Kid Rock’s lack of formal education would not make him unqualified if he can show through his work experience, advocacy experience, or something that he has a message for the…

Trump’s team has done that to Tillerson and Mattis as well. I think it is an effort to divert power from traditional, profession branches of public service that ultimately answer to congress to a shadow foreign policy shop run without oversight through the Whitehouse.

So, what happens to the belongings of people who are deported? Are they bussed across the border and dumped there with only what they had on hand? Do they have to try to end leases, get furniture packed and shipped from a distance or just leave everything behind? I’m opposed to mass deportations, especially for this…

Chaffetz must be ruling the day he took the chair for oversight. His district is so gerrymandered he might survive in two years, but he will be under constant pressure to, as his constituents chanted, do his job. His options kind of suck, though. He can initiate an investigation of Trump, which will almost certainly…

I think twitter should be used differently by those with high office, doing a basic check like “does this person use a white nationalist symbol as part of their profile”?

I voted for her in the primary and general, and was so excited that she was going to win (I thought). She should not run. Clinton does not run effectively campaigns, she has had two goes as the Democrat establishment candidate and she lost both times. The dirty tricks, misogyny, and weird conspiracy theories sucked,…

There doesn’t seem to be much upside in being associated with Trump brands now or in the near future—the higher end shoppers they would like to target hate Trump’s guts, the truly high end shopper isn’t buying Trump branded merch. Also, being subject to Trump’s whim is a terrible position, business leadership is about…

Natalie Portman was a total drag on Thor. For such a tNeted actor and beautiful woman, she just can’t seem to project big the way you need to for movies like this to work. This stuff is ridiculous, and yet, I want to be in this world, and take conversations about the infinity stones seriously.

There is also a difference between being treated fairly and being treated nicely. I don’t like the mocking of Steve Bannon’s appearance, because as an overweight woman, I know that same sort of mocking is just waiting for me whenever I step out of line and sometimes just for existing. Seeing people go to town on…

I got curious, in Michigan the punishment for a first time offense of driving with a suspended new license is up to 93 days in jail, and a $500 fine, subsequent offenses can go up to a year and $1000. These are the max penalties, hers would likely be less. $10,000 bond seems ridiculous, especially in light of her…

WAIT, the number 8? I was bummed when they wanted to take my new balance running shoes (best arch support available for high arch suppinators!). Now even integers are up for grabs?

Lady knows how to command a room! Also, people holding up signs saying, “Agree” clearly are out of control.

There is, Isis does make a point of attacking Christians, as part of their long list of people to attack. Trump’s claim that Christians have an unfair shot at refugee entry to the U.S. Is false, Christian make up a smaller proportion of Syrian refugees than in the general population because of where they tend to live…

Snyder is about the only thing I hear about that makes me feel better of Scott fucking Walker. Only I just thought about Scott fucking Walker and now am mad again!

So, how will Betsy Devos’s appointment effect her political campaign donations? Can she still fund GLEP? It doesn’t seem to be illegal or against policy for the secretaries (not state, defense, homeland security) to make political donations. So can she squeeze state legislatures by changing DoEd programs, while…

SHE didn’t divest, she stepped away from day to day management. It doesn’t surprise me that she is the most disciplined and media savvy of the entire crew. She’s only had three missteps I can recall, promoting the bracelet she wore during an official interview with her father, the meeting with Japanese officials, and…
