Re: Trump speech at the Boy Scout Jamboree...
quote:
But do you remember that incredible night with the maps and the Republicans are red and the Democrats are blue, and that map was so red, it was unbelievable, and they didn't know what to say?
Trump and his minions love the word "unbelievable". The other day, one of them said that Trump is doing an unbelievable job.
He really is.
But apparently they think "unbelievable" means "good".

I'd love to see Sessions get fired.
To paraphrase Andy Warhol: Everybody will get a chance to be in Trump's cabinet for fifteen minutes.

Apparently, The Mooch was not even on the job yet.
I've had this phrase running through my head: "Scaramucci, Scaramucci, can you do the fandango?" He would have had to do it pretty fast.
On the bright side, it shouldn't take long to clean out his desk.

[Trump's] poll numbers hit a new low this week 34%, according to Gallup.
That's still a horribly high number.

Re: very fine people on both sides!?
New Cat's Eye writes:
I'm sure there were attendees who simply wanted to protest the removal of the statue and had no interest in racism.
If there were any of those "very fine people" there, when they found out they were consorting with Nazis and Klansmen they should have either:
1. got the hell out of there
or
2. switched sides

You said what you would do. Creating a third side doesn't help anything.

You worry about Hispanics becoming prominent when the ATM asks you what language to use, then you are at another place on the spectrum.
I don't like it when the ATM asks what language I want to use - but the French are as white as I am. We have more Chinese speakers than French speakers around here. In fact, you can find ATMs that speak Chinese but that's because of the demand, not because it's mandated by law. We also have a statue of Confucius.

Hillary Clinton is not only unqualified to be president of the use, but as an unconvicted war criminal (like Hitler) she is also unqualified to be a human being.
Your kind of thinking is what causes war crimes.
No human being is unqualified to be a human being - not Jews, not Muslims, not Hillary, not Hitler, not even assholes like you.

Yes, Hitler was human. His dog liked him.
The first step in war crimes is to dehumanize your victims. You've taken it one step farther, laughing at the idea that other humans are human.

It was inconceivable that he could win in 2016. Our conceptions are clearly not adequate to deal with a cannon as loose as him.

Re: Shocked?

My hope is that in 2018 the Republicans get trounced and Trump be removed in the 2020 vote by a landslide.
I expect that it will be a squeaker in both elections. The slogan in 2020 will be, "He made America great again."
