It’s not about being “happy”, but about damage control. They know Trump and Bannon will burn the party down and split the vote if they move to impeachment. GOP House members fear facing the Democrats in the mid-terms, yes, but they also have to fear primary challengers from the alt-right, first. Gerrymandered…

Launching Alex Jones into orbit is a good thing we should do regardless of who sits in the Oval Office.

Barack Obama won because he ran as Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton lost because she ran as a focus group test result.

I thought perjury was a big fucking deal.

Yeah, it’s totally normal for a President to go after his political rivals by using his justice department to investigate and possibly jail them.

Why do mediocre, woefully underqualified white men always want to look like Tucker Carlson and Emperor Commodus from Gladiator?

Republican Chess is the first version of Chess where the other side just remains at baseline doing nothing, not even advancing a single pawn, while the Republican pieces just tear each other apart.

He doesn’t need to believe any of Trump’s accusers, he only needs to believe Trump in his own words. Now granted, Mitch dodged ‘Nam by developing a miracle eye condition (that never bothered him again afterwards), but his hearing is still good enough to digest this:

It’s the best you could get before January 2021. Even a Republican executive hampered by a Democratic legislative majority in Congress would still be a clear and present danger to the country and the world.

I imagine Trump to be the worst wedding guest ever. Can you imagine him laying low and not being the center of attention for a few hours? It’s unfathomable.

He should stick to Vanilla Ice and Snow, but at his age, the tongue probably lacks the nimbleness to rap Informer.

Whether he appreciates their ideology or just their business really makes no difference anymore, does it? Eventually the two become interchangeable.

It’s almost as if context matters.

Cardinal Law and Cardinal Pell could speak to his character, but they’re more experienced with little boys, not with little girls.

The next in line for the Presidency after the VP is the majority leader of the House, which would be Paul Ryan. If Trump and Pence had to resign after December 2018, it could even mean President Nancy Pelosi. An unlikely, but salivating prospect.

The Republicans will never, ever impeach Trump, unless the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (the Murdochs, Mercers, Kochs and Adelsons) who own the Party would withdraw their support from Trump first. They’re just too afraid of the base to risk that.

If you imagine an America where only black people were allowed to vote and an America where only white people voted, I think it’s pretty clear which one of those two Americas would be better governed, more successful and more respected in the world. White people know this at least subconsciously - and loathe it,…

Foreign tourism is down 6%, foreign direct investments 50% compared to last year.

This reminds me that I still have to watch the animated series of Michael Jai White’s Black Dynamite.

Keith Ellison for DNC chair (suck it, Haim Saban!) and Elizabeth Warren / Cory Booker for the POTUS ticket.
