I just read the transcript, and even by Trumpian standards, that was.....pretty goddamn terrible. I can only imagine how much worse it was live. Seriously, can someone, anyone, not get this man a fucking speechwriter?

well if we are all dead that does explain why Frederick Douglass is still around

What’s even more bizarre about this is that Fredrick Douglass is one of like, 6 black people who you learn about in public school (along with Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, MLK, Chrispus Attucks and Dred Scott). Most 8th graders could probably tell you that Douglass isn’t exactly a contemporary figure.

We’re obviously all dead and in hell, there’s no other explanation for any of this. Kinda like in The Sixth Sense, we’re dead but don’t know we’re dead.

Let’s be real: does Donald Trump know Frederick Douglas isn’t the peanut butter guy?

I think the contributions of Frederick Douglass will become more and more

Me every 10 minutes of this farce:

“Frederick Dougie Fresh, a terrific guy. One of the best.”

No.

Frederick Douglass died in 1895.

Obama already tried that (see “NLRB v. Canning”). SCOTUS smacked him down 9-0.

Democrats can’t allow Trump to fill a Supreme Court vacancy during the last year of his presidency.

Remember Cat Marnell’s essay about how abortion is bad and terrible and totally murdering a baby, and yes she’s had lots of them and will undoubtedly have more because she hates condoms and birth control makes her fat which makes it perfectly acceptable in her case, but they’re still horrible when anyone else has…

Drug memoirs are so boring. I can’t decide which I like less - new mom think-pieces or reminiscences by a junkie.

This was always OBL’s stated intentions. He was never going to win a physical war. He didn’t have the armament or the people. He knew that. So he set out to completely disrupt our way of life and have us make choices based on fear rather than intelligence.

Stop making these pathetic excuses. Tom Brady being a fancy dog is a joke, not reality. Putting a hat with the slogan of a declared presidential candidate in your locker is a political statement. If he doesn’t want to stand by the political statement he made, he should say that. If he does, he should say that.

Every county in Massachusetts went for Clinton. Every New England state went to Clinton (except one electoral vote in Maine because of archaic voting laws).

Brady is to sophisticated thinking as Hernandez was to peer mediation.

Go Falcons.
