Condescending? We have an electorate that is so fucking stupid that it just

elected Trump(R).

You are probably much smarter than I am, but I am NOT stupid and I learn a lot from her. And when she's going more slowly than my knowledge base requires, I am still grateful, because clearly we Americans need to have things spelled out for us at a very basic level.

She's the one who is making America understand how all these coincidences add up to a conspiracy. She's the one who is making it so that every time the Republicans point and shout, "Squirrel!" we don't lose our focus.

If we make it through the Trump(R) presidency, she will be a big part of the reason why.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
