At one point it definitely seemed he wanted to run but a reality may have sunk in that the only tactics he knows won’t get him there in today’s dem climate. Thus, he‘s free to indulge his base impulses.

Doing so would discomfit a significant percentage of white people, so the only people who would possibly consider it - democrats - won’t. Kinda like the last time.

As you know, historically a majority of white Americans have been willing to sacrifice for white supremacy, for which Trump is the present day avatar. The question today for these folks is “when does the price get too high?”

Tech needs it to work and the people making fortunes off the tech need it to work. If it does not work, then all these people lose their shirts. And these people own the media, the politicians, and just about everything else.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

A year ago, @propublica.org told you immigration agents had detained more than 170 U.S. citizens. We’ve updated our count, and we’ve got all the receipts. The tally: At least 506 citizens detained. Sometimes held at gunpoint, handcuffed, or even deported. projects.propublica.org/american-cit...

4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck. After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home. Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

That chip on your shoulder must hurt like hell. I have one word to help: "Squats." Tons of makeup and plastic surgery can make you look like Barry Manilow. But ask yourself, "Do I want to look like Barry Manilow?" If yes, have at it and enjoy.

This is exactly what's wrong with the tech industry, which my work intersects. It seeks people willing to see their jobs as a collection of preset, repeatable, tasks. This mindset views talent, creativity, and natural ability as impediments, not virtues. Tech values dronedom.

The self-regard is mind-boggling, along with the ignorance. “If you haven’t heard of what I like there’s something wrong with you.” Reminds me of people insisting “Everyone knows Jada Pickett Smith has alopecia.” And news flash. Pop music is not the only music.

Yes. It's not that he's no longer racist. He's just no more racist than they are. And that, by definition, is fine.
