Don’t forget sex. They’re big on that.

Usually they go little actually.

Yuck, feels bad to say what they do.

You got it wrong… They want the latter in pursuit of the former. Politics is just a business model for them

George HW Bush called Reagan’s trickle down tax cuts ‘voo doo economics.’

That was before he got the nod to be Vice-president.

I’ve seen “Trump is a fucking moron” countless times, but this is my first time seeing it from his former Secretary of State. Damn.

Trump was on TV a lot. I’m confident I’ve probably said/heard it personally before 2015.

He’s playing in his The Cure cover band (called Liberal Tears) later that night.

Harris should bring Mattis in to the administration in some capacity. He’s smart, universally respected, and the guy bleeds red, white, and blue.

He got fucking dragged by Trumpworld after he resigned over Trump’s stance on Afghanistan (or was it the Kurds?), it was probably one of the most severe about-faces I’ve ever seen from conservatives about one man. Went from a Marine’s Marine, a warrior-scholar, to a complete disgrace to the Corps as far as they’re concerned.

Really cemented my view of Trump as a cult of personality when I saw that narrative, and the base eating it up, in real time.

It was because we abandoned the Kurds. Mattis felt very strongly on the matter. He also went to bat for transgender service members.

It doesn’t matter much in terms of election PR, as he’s already “burned” in Trumpworld. He’s not going to change many minds.
