My Trump-voting colleague has spent the last year interviewing and going through the motions to enroll in a particular federal job training program that would have guaranteed him a significantly higher salary and better benefits than our current job. Hebjust told me that he can’t get hired now because of Trump’s…

Complete bullshit. This is the “we don’t have better ideas” option that still doesn’t address the “Pick 2" paradox - you can have more covered, lower costs, and higher quality, but not all at the same time. The ACA is seeing higher premiums not because it sucks, but because it’s covering more sick people (this is a…

I should have gone into finance, obviously. What the hell am I going to do with a degree in environmental science and a masters in environmental health?! I would go to work making everything look okay for one of the big oil companies, but they aren’t going to need anyone to make things look okay anymore. Multilevel…

oh, but we didnt demoralize him, sean - he came to us, quite honestly, without any morals at all.

When more people actually voted for your opponent, it’s hard to rally the proverbial troops under the banner of “look how much support I have!”

Oh, because Nazis are so principle-filled? Gotcha.

The “team” model explains something like three-quarters of American political culture.

I think there’s a reality that for a large percentage of people who vote the end result isn’t anything more meaningful than just a win or a loss. If you vote Trump then whenever you watch the news or whatever and you’re reminded he’s President then it’s a reminder that your team “won” and those other guys lost. It’s…

Let me preface this by saying I didn’t vote for trump (or hillary for that matter - gasp!). I’ve seen so many articles about how “empty” the inauguration was, like that’s supposed to mean something. Let’s use our common sense here - the inauguration is smack dab in the middle of the most liberal section of our country…

Now. But I FEEL that they are real. Alternative crowds. Like real crowds, but with pointer hoods.

In related news, he will also NOT be:

i knew that he wouldn’t do it, because he said that he would.

The UK will never leave the EU.

Given that the White House is now the epicenter of the fake news industry, why should the media even attend WH briefings anymore?

And then there is this...
