Well said. Also don’t forget the rise of Fox News.

GWB set the stage for Trump. You can see the line of rallying latent white, non-thinking starting from him, growing with the rise of Fox News (which the Bushes are well entrenched in) and the rise of people like Sarah Palin and the Tea Party, all which have culminated in the bloated nightmare of 45.

Thanks for being the fucking voice of reason.

Because almost half of eligible voters did not vote in the last election and he lost by a slim margin.

Would have been better if he had spoken out against 45 and declined to give him an official endorsement a year ago, but whatevs. I like what he’s saying now, but at the same time it’s like it shouldn’t have taken a brain tumor for him to stand up to 45.

he is the only republican that I still respect.

Maybe it is some aid’s form of resistance, “oh YES those sleeves are totally on point this season”. I bet she is a terror to work for.

In some ways, the veneer of eloquence and using “intelligent words” like “democratize” makes her more repugnant.

You never need to apologize for venting about how fucking terrible the current administration is. Ever.

Well if he succeeds in gutting health care and his bullshit “funnel all the money up into my greedy pig mouth!” tax plan, then the people who voted inevitably will suffer.

More like Christofascism v. Corporate fascism gone horribly, horribly wrong.

They would probably still emphatically support him even if that happened.

It looks refreshing and fantastic!

There is so little joy in the world, a 5 minute monolog about nothing and pop culture references from the halcyon days of Nixon, Reagan, and the Bushes being the worst presidents of all time is a welcome change.

Except that uncle of mine doesn’t have boatloads of money.

I am sure that Trump’s base will be totally outraged and will start chanting “lock him up! lock him up!” any moment now.

Ironically being apolitical is one of the most political stances one can take.

Actually, it’s an article about Trump bashing a football player, and the shock that a sitting president would do such a thing.

I mean this is year is kind of a shitshow...
