You're talking about a man who is totally unaware of himself or of others. He just does what makes him feel good. For some reason, that does. There's no explanation. He's deranged. And he's our President.
One wonders why.
Turning on a computer for the first time isn't what it used to be.
I just spent five grand on a gamer, and when I booted it the first time, My only thought was, okay, here we go again.

The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
It's a sign of the times that AI companies are deciding whether or not to allow the military to engage in mass surveillance of US citizens and this is treated as a legitimate debate of two reasonable positions.
Data shows Gaza protesters faced harsher punishments than Black Lives Matter protesters did just a few years ago. Experts tell Mondoweiss this is the result of pro-Israel bias and a backlash against protest movements that has been building for years.

We donβt need talkers right now. We need fighters.
And no matter how many times they knock me down, Iβll get back up and fight with you. Every. Single. Time.
I'm sure that it's impeachable, too. Oh, well.
Civilians don't salute. They put their hands over their hearts. Troops not in uniform now have the option of saluting or placing their hand over their heart, according to the new regulation.
I don't know what the protocol is for felons and rapists.

John Lewis said that just before he denied that Bernie Sanders ever worked for civil rights. Lewis said about Sanders, "I never saw him". He endorsed Hillary, instead. She'd never done anything.
That will always be part of his legacy, too.

Yeah, well, she said it, and she'll get away with it.
Bigotry persists in Iowa. Don't live there if you don't want their hatred of others in your life.

the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.
Dad? What are you doing in that case?

"You think Pakistan would just fold? We wouldn't have to offer them anything in return?" "Maybe we should offer them something. I'm saying you start off as nicely as possible. You apply as much pressure as necessary until you achieve the goal. You start off telling them, 'Let's get rid of it! If that doesn't work you then start cutting off aid. And more aid and then more. You do whatever is necessary so these people will have riots in the street, so they can't get water. So they can't get Band-Aids, so they can't get food. Because that's the only thing that's going to do it-the people, the riots." "But what about the French?" I ask Trump. "They-" "I'd come down on them so hard," he says. "Because I think they've been the worst example of-" "But they already have the bomb. Do you think they'll give it up?" "Well, I tell you if they didn't give it up-"

Fuck you. Me.
Who would have guessed that the guy who bragged he could get away with murder would end up authorizing so much murder?
Vulgarity also is in the eye of the beholder, and it's a judgment that may require more scrutiny than the other one. But we often speak hyperbolically, do we not? I think we should have learned how to make allowances for it by now.
Nothing. Some people are easily offended about things no one cares about. Ignore them.
If you think about that for too long, you'll start wondering why that asteroid is taking so long to get here.
