This is not a surprise or shocking because he is just that vile, low and disgusting. We all know that he is a rapist and the images floating around show that their relationship looks incestuous.

@pivoinebleue WTF. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that image before. Do we know that it’s for real? I don’t trust anything these days, certainly not memes.

I saw a post that saying Black when referring to people of African dissent isn't nice. I thought that's what they want to be called vs. African American? At least that's what I was taught in J-School.

I mean it's been a while. I just want to be correct and not offend anyone.

@seth You aren’t going to find agreement. Most people I know say Black.

“Half the country” does not support Trump. That’s a myth. Only 25% of Americans are registered Republicans, and only half of them want to see him return to the White House. So that’s more like 12%.

@noondlyt @paul I don’t know what they are, but I grew up the child of 70s health food nuts. Fuck wheat germ. You couldn’t pay me eat Pepperidge Farm bread, dried fruit, or anything made out of carob, ever again. I’m not taking echinacea or cod liver oil, vitamin C or herbs and spices.

I do not want green eggs and ham. I do not want them Sam I am.

The IRS should start with the wealthiest and work their way down, not start with poor people and work their way up. If they don’t have enough staff, only audit the super rich who we KNOW are cheating on their taxes.

You have to ask yourself who is doing more harm. Fox News, where everyone already knows they’re the unofficial media arm of the GOP? Or CNN, where they pretend to be giving you objective journalism balanced between two equal parties playing by the same rules?

I’d argue that CNN poses the greater threat to democracy.

“Among Democrats and Democratic leaning voters, 70 percent support Biden, 17 percent support Kennedy, and 8 percent support Williamson.”

To understand the MagaGOP, just assume that whatever they’re complaining about or accusing the Democrats of doing, the person speaking is actively involved in doing just that.

Attack drag queens as groomers?
Get arrested for sex with a minor.

Launch a political movement called “No Labels”?
Label everyone.

Call for deficit reduction?
Cut taxes.

Complain about the takers?
Don’t pay your own bills.

Accuse the Dems of corruption?
Get indicted for corruption.

Part of the insanity of Trump’s Georgia call is the scale of his request. If he’d called up asking them to find eleven votes, they’d have probably done it. But he didn’t need eleven votes, he needed 11,700 votes.

Like they were going to say, “Hey wait. We missed this cache of 12k votes over here, all for Trump. We’re just a bunch of inbred rednecks down here who don’t know no better. Whups.”

When we first saw the indictment, we knew there was an audio recording and we knew what was said on it. Today (or was it yesterday) the news media got a hold of it and acted like it was news.

“Now he’s REALLY in trouble.”

How hard do you think Harry will laugh if his brother, Prince Humperdinck, never gets to sit on the throne because the monarchy gets burned to the ground by his father’s petty insolence being so far out of time?

I think pretty hard.

There is a fallacy that claims that liberal ridicule actually empowered and fed the Maga movement. While this might technically be true, they’re not paying that much attention to anything we say or do. The talking heads will ALWAYS come up with something to attack the Libs for. There’s no sense in trying to avoid giving them ammo. They don’t need an excuse. They’ll throw rocks.

We need to be ridiculing everyone on the right. All the time. Mercilessly. It should be cruel and unusual.
