See my response below and link in that comment, which talks about his thought process and insecurities. The key word is he hate that he is perceived as an illegitimate president. That has to do with losing the popular vote and the allegations re Russia.

Key word is perceived. He apparently is insecure that he lost the popular vote and also detests any suggestion that the Russians propped him up. There was an interesting article in Politico about it: http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/01/trump-biographers-presidency-legitimate-214655

I’m sure he’ll say, “we had the biggest crowds ever!!” But deep down it kills him that the crowds are small, just like it kills him that he is perceived as an illegitimate president.

Same thinning hair too...the resemblance is uncanny! If the Nutcracker and the Cryptkeeper from Tales from the Crypt had a baby, it would be Kellyanne Conway.

Holy shit— that was painful to watch.

Actually as someone who knows something about that subject, I definitely think Franken was completely on point with that line of questioning. Sessions was trying to take credit for cases in which he had no involvement (other than putting his name on pleadings).

It’s as if Trump and his transition team were like “let’s pick the worst possible candidates for all of our cabinet positions!” Between Price, DeVoss, Tillerson, Pruitt, and Sessions, this cabinet is a fucking joke.

So does that mean he stirs up shit, while pretending to be everyone’s friend?

I think it’s supposed to be in 2018

They aren’t in this instance. Plus he refers to himself in third person

He’s a well known troll. You should never agree with him.

The headlines just keep getting worse as we get closer to his inauguration. It’s utterly heartless to cut aid to Africa.

I wouldn’t say that. He’s just a spineless opportunist. He was the man who said he couldn’t vote for Trump after the Access Hollywood tape, and then voted for him. He’s the idiot responsible for countless hearings on emailz, the Clinton Foundation, etc. And yet, he’s more than willing to turn a blind eye to the…

I think they’d say that because she is at Harvard. Also, she worked for a big firm along the way :)

A lot of people do ignore politics, and in addition, a lot of voters base their decision on things other than whether a candidate is ideologically pure. That’s why Clinton beat Sanders in the primary.

I already see half-witted Republicans name calling her in sexist terms, just as they did to Hillary. And like Hillary, they’re going to label her as a coastal elite (which apparently means anyone with functioning brain cells).

I think she’s about the same as Hillary in terms of public speaking skills. Her speech at the DNC, for example, was very underwhelming. She is, however, like Hillary, very good in one on one exchanges with her opponents. I still think she’s extremely bright and qualified, and probably will vote for her in the…

I like her, but I think she suffers from the same shortcomings that Hillary had. She’s clearly bright and qualified, but she also can be perceived as aloof, not a great speaker, and a coastal elite. I’d probably vote for her in the primary, but then again, I also voted for Hillary in the primary.

There is no sleeping during the next four years. We have to start planning for the midterms now— particularly given that the Senate map is bad for the Dems in 2018.
