Trump is just as bad as Hillary guys! The DNC cheated Bernie so let’s protest vote! Let’s stay home! They both suck equally!

“We look to have a great relationship with all countries, ideally, unfortunately that won’t necessarily happen, unfortunately probably won’t happen with many countries, but if we could have as we do with Prime Minister May, and the relationship we’ve all developed, and even the short relationship that we’ve just…
Dear Rest of the Planet and It’s Leaders,
Bush actually read quite a lot! Something like two books a week. That’s right: Trump makes George W. Bush look like a fucking academic.
It’s not so much that I thought Donald Trump actually read a lot of books of any kind, but for some reason it has just hit me. Our President is a man who doesn’t read any books. Any of them. At all. (Look, I’m sure plenty of our presidents have not been big readers - W. comes to mind, but hell Laura was a teacher and…

Well, American Catholics overwhelmingly voted for Trump, even after the Pope has repeatedly told them not to simply vote based on abortion, but to think about compassion. So, I have little faith in them at this point (full disclosure: from a very Catholic family).
I totally get the stories about Jesus being born to refugees. I went to 13 years of Catholic school so the stories and traditions are ingrained in me. But my experience with the church is that the gap between doctrine and practice yawns pretty wide sometimes. I’m glad to hear from other folks that their churches are…
Are the Catholics? Like, are they really? I know my (former) church is full of NIMBY spouting conservatives who want to send the Brown People home because that’s what White Jesus would do. I’m only half exaggerating. But I don’t think the suburban Catholic churches would do shit. Maybe the inner-city churches will,…
It’s going to cost a lot of money and we aren’t getting it funded by Mexico. So in that sense, after we slash taxes on corporations and rich and transfer our 2nd largest source of federal funds (National Lands) to the state level, we will have no way to effectively pay for it.
I don’t really give a shit about the wall either. You know who actually gives a shit? The ranchers who border the rio grande. You can’t build the wall on Mexico’s side of the rio grande, so you have to build it on our side and cut off the rancher’s access to the river. Should be very interesting...
I’m much more concerned about the sanctuary cities than the wall. Yes, the wall is a stupid waste of money and rude, but I don’t see it doing serious damage to the country (I might not know enough about the issue, though).
Excuse the fuck out of me for admiring someone.
I don’t quite get the line of reasoning that without the electoral college, California would rule us all. California has a lot of votes because it is a geographically large state that is just chock full of voting American citizens, and their votes, when thrown into the pot, would count as much as everyone else’s. They…
“I don’t have any intentions of pretending that we can get along with him,” Waters said. “He has defined himself, we know who he is, we know what he cares about and I don’t why any of us would try and make ourselves believe that he is anything other than what he has shown us to be.”
National Park Service employees have gone fully rogue after Prump’s WH banned their tweets. Follow them if you’re interested in science and the environment:
This shit is so dangerous. It erodes our faith in our democratic institutions. We may survive a trump presidency but the US won’t be able to survive a complete loss of faith in things like our elections and our press for example. It will breed widespread corruption and authoritarianism as people will think trump is…
It must be exhausting to be so easily offended. The amount of time and effort he puts into being petty is almost impressive.
I wonder how many signs you would have to make to equal the cost of an IUD.
