He’s a fascist and people think he’s smart because he has some fake degrees.

My Basque friends hate fascists (for solid historical reasons).

So it’s like the same [n+1] algorithm he uses when describing the “angry democrats”?

Underrated comment.

It’s impossible for republicans because they assume that everyone is as corrupt and venal as they are. But we’d be making a mistake to assume that all democrats are altruistic in their intentions, as well. The problem is that our government is designed in such a way that corruption is inevitable. Until we get…

I think tend to assume (incorrectly) that people in positions of power act with “best intentions”. Failing that, they assume (incorrectly, again) that people act with a sense of shame avoidance. They don’t understand how someone could get so far in life, or so high in government without at least a semblance of the…

Holy crap that’s perfect. They must have had to surgically remove his foot from his mouth.

I just said something similar on another article. His narcissism is so profound that it never even occurs to him that he committed an obvious crime, because any considerations that exist outside of his desires (like laws) don’t actually exist to him.

It doesn’t take a genius to look at trump’s tweets or hear him speak and say “Jesus, that guy’s brain is pudding and he knows absolutely nothing at all.” Roth’s genius…

I’ve been calling him a singularity of stupid for a while now.

*Insert “I’m not owned!” dril tweet.

Balder’s dead, dude.

More like crashing from a cheap amphetamine high.

Saw a great comment on twitter to the effect of “Anyone who thinks the guy who drew on an actual weather map with a sharpie is going to release a full, non-redacted transcript of the call is a fool.”

You don’t need eyes to see what a complete scumbag he is, tho.

Knowing Pelosi, get angry at the press for asking questions about it.

What a fucking poser. 

He’ll have to write “I will not disrespect congress.” 100 times.

I can’t speak specifically to their methodology without looking at the original study, but I suspect we’re being graded a bit better than we actually are (probably a case of “well, technically...”). One of the points that stands out to me is that the noted problems actually predate trump. I think any reasonable person…
