A solid reminder that the US problem isn't just a Trump GOP problem. Here's a Dem candidate bashing Canada. The midterms are not the panacea. The anti-Canada position will not change even with the Dems in power.

As a former pretentious little shit who grew out of it, rationalists (et al) annoy the piss out of me because they are adults with the mentality of tweens - they are somehow still convinced they are the greatest geniuses who have ever walked the earth. It is the worldview of an arrogant baby.

If you haven’t tried MapQuest after the Lake Ontario renaming nonsense, I highly recommend it. Very nice app, and it works really well. And, it doesn’t suck up to wannabe dictators!

This administration can’t even fix a pool. That’s how grossly inept they are. No wonder the situation in Iraq is so bad. No wonder his foreign policy is so bad. They can’t even fix a fucking pool.

Remember. You always have to be a victim, all the time. It’s the immigrants. It’s the caravans. It’s the nuclear weapons, it’s countries ripping you off. It’s just a ruse to steal and pilfer. They know exactly what they’re doing.

Trump only knows how to destroy. The current populist right only knows how to destroy. That is the intent of their movement. They want division. They want disunity. They want to tear down the arts, sciences, humanities. They abhor education, knowledge, skill and empathy. This is who they are.
