Our new mission is to identify potential presidential candidates who are dumber than trump and impeach them so they can’t run for office, because you know that’s the very candidates republicans will vote for.

thank you The New York Post for what may be the funniest image of all time
a picture from the NY Post titled "	today’s leftists are possessed by the spirit of France’s 18th-century guillotine-loving revolutionaries" (way too long) that shows Mamdani (the specter haunting Europe) smiling in the sky as a bunch of French people goof around

On some level, I think a lot of Dems just aren't willing to say flat out that Trump and Trumpism have failed in a very profound way. Dems have internalized the idea that this is too much for voters to hear. That's the source of a lot of problems. It's needlessly self-constraining.

The great food cart escape is damaging on many levels: coward hiding from danger, the silly way he was smuggled out, Qatari jet is a security sieve, and how he left everyone on the original plane to be sitting ducks. The cherry on the sundae for me was his fawning press corp basically left hanging.

This is a prime example of why right-wing populism slides so easily into antisemitism. You need a populist framing of "the people" versus "the elites," but you can't frame the elites in strictly economic terms, or else you end up with leftism. Hence you need another way to define "elites."

I've figured out how trump is going to ruin the World Cup: by intervening in reversing the red card suspension. Though the call was stupid, it's going to cast a pall over everything. We now can't enjoy a win because everyone will say we cheated. He's even managed to ruin a possible win.

This lie just needs to fucking die! Bernie was not rigged out of the damn primary. He got wiped out by black dems in the south. Whom he never campaigned to. His class only schtick did not appeal to black people who are one of the largest voting blocks in the Dem party. And he ignored them.

The irony is that "racial considerations" can't be used to undo a system that was 100% built on racial considerations and they damn well know it.

One of the reasons that people should have voted in the previous election is because it’s the most important one of my lifetime. The effect of who won that election is going to affect the rest of our lives. In that context, why was it legitimate to not help?

But we aren’t allowed to say it out loud because it might lose us the next election? We can’t say that there is moral culpability because we still need them to vote in the next election? OK but how do we know they will vote correctly?

Boating Accident (Wilson in Cast Away)
It's the *inevitable* endpoint for the conservative movement. Per Wilhoit's Law conservatives want the law to protect but not bind them and bind but not protect out-groups. So they can kill whoever they want with impunity but liberals and people of color must comply or die.
