    Okay, guys, when girls say, “he’s not creepy because he’s unattractive, he’s unattractive because he’s creepy,” this is what they mean. It takes “cringe-worthy” to a whole new level.

    Sure, Geraldo, we can have a steel cage match in Al Capone’s vault.

    If there is no choice or switching costs are prohibitively high, then so be it and you must deal with it. Don’t bitch about it, though.

    Theater. Nothing else. You’re not going to learn anything about the candidates by watching them pivot questions from a moderator into what they want to talk about.

    I don’t really think this will happen, but the back of my brain keeps nudging this as a possibility. If the impeachment inquiry starts really digging shit up and people start getting scared, his cabinet could 25th Amendment his ass and then start playing the victims of the Mad Man In Charge rather than willing

    While saying things like, “it’s a dog eat dog world” and “it’s not personal, it’s just good business” to justify their shitty behavior.

    W.C. Fields, if I’m not mistaken.

    The cognitive dissonance needed to be a GOP stooge is staggering.

    If you can’t convince them, confuse them.

    Again, I wish I had your optimism. You don’t get this level of corruption without complicit people in critical positions. And one thing we do know about the Republican President is his penchant for firing people that question him.

    I wish I had your optimism. One thing we do know about this administration is they care not one whit about the law. They’ve already risked serious criminal violations, all the way up to the Attorney General, to protect this president.

    While it’s certainly bad PR, it doesn’t appear to pose a significant threat to the Times’ business

    If I’m Pelosi, the very first thing I’m asking for is what else is on that server?  Because as we speak they are attempting to sanitize it.

    Which team is Pelosi playing for?
