I’m just glad John McCain has returned from his sick bed to do away with whatever goodwill remained for him.

This is the GOP saying, “we can’t repeal it, we can’t replace it, and it won’t completely fail on its own...so we’re going to MAKE it fail.”

My favorite quote on this was from David Frum, who said (paraphrased) that when Trumpists say “deep state”, they really mean “rule of law”. That is, when they complain about the deep state they are essentially complaining that they haven’t been granted absolute power and still have to play by the same rules as the…

For 25 years, the knuckle draggers have whined about the “Clinton Crime Family” and dreamt up insane conspiracy theories about land deals and murder/suicide pacts and blow jobs, and then they go and worship the dirtiest candidate they can find who installs his corrupt, criminal children in the White House just before…

He would jerk off on his deathbed to the idea that something in the government got named after him.

Even toothless trailer park racists couldn’t ignore.

He chose this to be his running-mate.

Also also, institutes a physical and mental health check by a non-partisan medical health board of professionals.

His supporters loved it and said he was sending a clear message to the world we weren’t going to be pushed around anymore.

Look up. There’s a Trumper going around talking about how this is all a ‘deep state’ conspiracy. Trump supporters will never admit who he is and what he’s done. They will blame Clinton and the Democrats and the elusive ‘deep state’ for the rest of their miserable existence.

“I, Donny T, am coming out today to pardon myself for everything I have ever done, which is nothing, and totally all Hillary and Obama’s fault because they are mean terrible people who bigly tarnished my reputation, but I am not going to own it and am totally innocent.”

How’s the weather in Moscow?

None of them know what they’re doing! Lawyer or not, they have no idea about protocol, rules of order, custom, how to get shit done or basic law. It’s like they just thought “oh anybody can be in politics, it’s just like business.”

If he couldn’t even win the DNC rigged primary, how was he going to win the Russian rigged election? Who do you think is better at rigging shit?

Mueller’s barely started. He’s just beginning at the beginning. And following the money.

I teach High School Social Studies. Every year, I inevitably cover the Presidential power to pardon, and I always ask the same question of my classes: “Who can the President NOT pardon?” Usually, 2/3s to 3/4s of the students will answer “himself/herself.” They’re 16.

Hey, hopefully this ends some day and we can all laugh when the Trump amendment is passed requiring the president to have complete financial disclosure, prevents any federal official from self absolution, requires the president to relinquish control of any possible conflicts of interest from him, his family, or anyone…

I just saw a large segment about this with Auntie Rachel, and it is truly a trip to Crazytown. Apparently, part of the problem is that the lawyers Cheeto Hitler was able to hire are not Washington constitutional scholars, since all of the big DC firms bounced him when his people came sniffing around looking for…

The only mild comfort I have when I read things like this is that this dude is old and fat and tired and ugly and clearly his loneliness and isolation have made him miserable for the majority of his life. What joy has he ever really experienced that didn’t also make him feel secretly, deeply, crushingly inadequate?…
