Not to go all armchair psychologist, but not having the empathy to understand that your well being isn’t the priority of other people just because it’s yours is classically symptomatic of a number of disorders....

The director of an Australian thinktank has had some splendid words to say about Trump. (It should be remembered that Australia has been a strong ally of the US and has sent its troops into several conflicts alongside America, so to piss them off is a) not a good idea, and b) really, really hard).

I do not know if you heard, but with Cuba, I had 84 percent, with the Cuban-American vote. But overall generally, I had well over 30 percent and everyone was shocked to see this. I understand the community and they understand me, and I have a great respect for the Mexican people.”

In the same vein, he keeps whining to both these other leaders about how bad everything will make him look, like that’s what, their problem? Especially in the case of Peña Nieto, I can’t imagine a person on earth with more right to be uninterested in Trump’s self-made image problem.

I’m sure there’s some German word for what I’m feeling.

Right? His followers are so invested in the macho man figure they think he cuts, but he’s just a sniveling little turd.

It’s so weird. I knew before reading that it was going to be a Fyre Festival but I wasn’t prepared to learn that he talks like a whiny little bitch in front of other world leaders.

Reading these was so... I don’t even know what word to use. Like, it was confirming in the fact that Trump is completely in over his head, but it was also sickening to see just how terrible a situation it really was. Like, something that I needed to see even though I knew it wasn’t going to be good. I’m sure there’s…

How was this man ever taken seriously in anything he’s ever done? Even in business these are shit negotiation tactics! How blind and deaf are his supporters that they are able to overlook literally everything about him.

They didn’t vote for Donald Trump, they voted for a caricature so far from the truth that he should…

God, the history textbooks 60 years from now are going to be so weird.

The ACLU’s resistance to Trump has been brilliant not just substantively (and it has undoubtedly been substantively brilliant) but also symbolically. They have just been so consistently good at packaging their resistance in a way that makes people sit up and notice.

Like two dried, cracked and ancient tanned leather purses slapping together in a jar of mayonnaise.

ughhh, why isn’t she president?!!!!

It’s going to be an opera. Trump will be a 12-foot golden mask of his face in mid-scream, and the ensemble will have various duets and aris in front of it.

This administration is a disaster. It’s a disaster for a whole host of reasons, of course, but just operationally, it’s a disaster because no one knows how to run a government.

Now the shit pudding can hit the fan - if the sale of his hedge fund to the Chinese collapses, it proves his appointment was motive for a Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violation. If the sale goes through , but for one cent less than the previously announced $90million, it proves the same, because he’d be accepting…

A big reason McCain is getting the accolades is because he disrupted his surgery recovery to vote to begin this 3-ring circus. I’ll never forgive him for that. This mess didn’t need to happen.

A question from a Canadian. From most things I hear, even American’s who identify as Democrats, or left leaning in their politics are against public health care. Why? Is it taxes? Because I mean shit, if you’re paying like a grand a month in insurance premiums I can assure you your taxes wouldn’t be that high. It just…

2 I went to store at midnight to buy Limp Bizkit “Chocolate Starfish”.

Bob Dylan’s Christmas album is honestly top 5 material, if not top three. If there is anything you hold dear about Bob Dylan, do not listen to this fucking album.
