I'm not exactly confident in people who have either. Peter Thiel was a philosophy major at Stanford. Alex Karp studied social theory under Jurgen Habermas.

I feel like with a little reverse psychology Democrats could prompt Trump to spend the weeks before the election dragging Reagan.

Ideally you wouldn’t have to wonder if the Commander in Chief even knows San Diego is a military town.

When Trump’s broke brain muses about Iran destroying San Diego does he think that reads as a woke city to a Nebraska crowd or does he really fantasize about losing 100,000 active duty military on his watch?

Sometimes I think journalists think just quoting Trump is damning enough without any further explanation. As if they don’t read interviews with Trump voters in their own publications.

Just comparing the stenographic account of fantasizing about catastrophic mass casualties with the one shot full of drama and high stakes of an obvious gaffe.

After justifying the Iran war as necessary for "keeping the world safe," Trump suggested there could be strikes on the United States, including certain cities in California.
"They could take out a city," he said. "Let them take-Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego."

coin-toss election, where any small shift theoretically could be decisive, Mr. Biden has twice caused headaches for his vice president with ill-timed gaffes. His latest, during a video call with Latino supporters on Tuesday night, forced Ms. Harris to spend part of the last Wednesday of her campaign distancing herself.
Mr. Biden was denouncing racist comments made by a speaker at a recent Donald J. Trump rally when he appeared to call supporters of Mr.
Trump "garbage." He later explained that he meant that "the hateful rhetoric" from the Trump surrogate was
"garbage," not his supporters generally.
But Republicans, expressing umbrage, quickly pounced on what they hoped

Somehow Trump’s mangled adlibs are always such that rational people can dig out a less inflammatory interpretation if that’s their agenda while his true believers can go with his winking horrors.

I’ve already seen “what he actually meant” takes on this. And to get to that meaning he’d need to say something like “They could take out…” and maybe not just randomly pick the two biggest cities in the bluest state for his little thought exercise.

This is being passed around as a total misrepresentation of what he said.
Trump was saying - as he often does - that costs for Americans are a small price to pay for preventing Iran from getting nuclear missiles. He was saying

My God.

MEGYN KELLY (HOST): No one will even consider the possibility that this woman made a decision to get it on with four men total, not seven, and enjoyed it because — I'm just going to be honest, she's not the most attractive gal. She's extremely beefy in her arms and her legs. She has a whole video online talking about her cankles. And she possibly enjoyed being admired. This is how women make these mistakes. Admired, wanted, some women even foolishly say loved by these guys at Cornell. But this is probably a first for her. She's probably thrilled to be so admired because she clearly didn't grow up the incredibly beautiful one.

I'm not trying to be insulting. I'm just trying to tell you the narrative that is likely to have occurred here, in my opinion. And why can't we account for that possibility? That the girl who was never the most sought after suddenly had four guys who wanted to have sex with her. And she counted this, yeah, in her inebriated state, as a win and liked the feeling of being sexy and desired and wanted. It happens. Sorry, it does. And that's why she kept saying yes.

Why do we have to go right to she's a victim? Even she took weeks to get there. It wasn't until they told her she couldn't go to the party. We all know that. Right? This is so disempowering to all of womankind, to all of us, to our daughters. We are capable of making decisions. She made the decision to drink and then show up at a fraternity house at 11 o'clock.

Everybody's loving this clip, for good reason, but it should remind everyone that cities therefore have an obligation to build enough housing that all these marginalized and outcast people can come and afford to live in them on minimum wage *without* becoming homeless. YIMBY!
