153·1 day agoI kind of hate how these lazyass “where did walking fossil x go” articles can still bring in the clicks when it’s pretty fucking obvious where he’s gone. since he’s not in the White House, which is the other place we keep our aspiring undead, he’s home in the Hills, drooling on his felted dressing gown at 3 p.m., just medicated out of time and space, waiting for the reaper’s touch
55·2 days agoThe Democrats are still stuck in this post-Clinton seniority mindset where they unofficially pick a candidate before primaries even begin, based on who has been around the longest and who has held the highest position. Remember “it’s her turn”? Yes, yes, I know it didn’t work against Obama, but heading into the debates everyone assumed Hillary would be the candidate until Obama put on the better show. More to the point, I think Obama breaking through scared the establishment Dems into doubling down on primary fuckery. See what happened to Bernie, twice. So now we have a president who knows all the right people but plays politics with the 1990s rulebook and has a terminal case of crusty old man voice.
Still better than Trump.

You see, the mistake is thinking that the goal is to protect children. The goal is to punish women for exercising agency. If a woman gets pregnant, there should be a baby. If there isn’t, she’s cheating, and there will be consequences.

Republican politicians making excuses for Trump
That’s because it’s not an argument. He’s presupposing the frame that his rabid supporters are going to use, which is he only lost because he was goofing on the sham debate on purpose. He knows that his base is ride or die, and whatever he does on the debate stage isn’t going to change that. He’s explicitly giving them the line to use.
Corpo media want Trump, simple as. Not only do they get the tax breaks and regulation abatement for their parent companies, but the last Trump term was cocaine for news media consumption, as we were all bombarded with new disaster scenarios every week. News companies do not care about the people or “the good of the nation.” They care about line go up.
