When you get the urge to say this:

“Russia meddled in our elections and trump refuses to hold them accountable.”

Say this instead:

“Putin has killed at least 22 journalists that we know of, by throwing them out of windows, running over them with tanks,exploding their cars, and such, merely for asking for things like fair elections. Instead of standing up to all that trump kisses that Russian’s ass, attacks our own journalists and tries with Putin to make a joke out of America. Want video proof? Just youtube that.”

When you get the urge to say this:

“trump’s friendship with Kim Jong Un has been counterproductive to dunuclearizing North Korea.”

Say this instead:

“Kim Jong Un tortures Christians in concentration camps simply for being Christian. And he tortures their families, too, just for being their families. And Kim Jong Un has no interest in giving that up, or giving up his nuclear weapons, because he sees trump as a stupid pussy who is easy to manipulate just by pretending to be his friend.”

When you get the urge to say this:

“trump has refused to condemn the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia for the murder of Jamal Kashoggi”.

Say this instead:

“Mr. Kashoggi was an American resident with American children, and instead of respecting all that the Crown Prince sent henchmen with hacksaws to saw off Mr. Kashoggi’s arms and legs while he screamed so loud in pain and horror that the entire hotel heard them, and it’s captured on tape, and despite all that evidence trump excuses it away because with all his talk of executing journalists as enemies of the state he believes that people like Mr. Kashoggi deserve it.”

When you get the urge to say this:

“Because of his racism trump has treated migrants at the border in very cruel fashion.”

Say this instead:

“trump enjoys the news of children sleeping on cold concrete floors with open overflowing toilets, swamped in their own feces because like a coward he thinks it’s cute not to give them soap or sanitation… and cute because he and his friends make a lot of money off that for-profit operation. Speaking of which, despite him telling you that illegal immigrants should be deported he has knowingly and willingly employed illegal immigrants at his own resorts for many years. How long will you allow him to treat you like a fool?”

Just wondering.... and I'm too lazy right now to do my own research.

I want to punish those bastards!

In the interview segment of the program each contestant was allowed to speak about anything they wished. The other two thanked their families for their support, which is great, and the eventual champion went on to explain why "trivia matters"....

Information allows us to understand, communicate, and connect with others, and most importantly IT FORMS THE BASIS OF ALL OPINIONS.

I thank him for saying so.

He was pressed for time, of course, but I think he left out something also important... I've always believed that the more information you gather the more you understand life in general, the more you can appreciate the beauty and intricacies of the world... which, in general, allows you to guide your life by light rather than by fear.

WTF is that even supposed to mean?

If you weren't in favor of mandatory busing then you were opposed to busing, period.

"I was never, ever opposed to voluntarily surrendering your guns" is the same sort of statement a politician would use if he wanted to be mealy-mouthed about opposing some future mandatory gun buy back program should we ever finally decide that we don't want those on our streets.

Sorry, Joe... JUST ADMIT YOUR MISTAKE for chrissake.

It's Warren, Biden, or Harris.

Honestly, I'd like Buttegieg as my next President, but in a primary I'd pull the lever for Warren as a more realistic choice.

Then Bennet defending the Statue of Liberty.

I loved all ten people.

"I didn't oppose bussing. I was opposed to bussing ordered by the Department of Education."

BAD, BAD answer.

My facebook post just now:

This photo... YOU MUST SEE IT because it says so much... has me in tears.

These are HUMANS who try to come here... to avoid violence... to secure better lives for their children... who risk what little they have in desperation.

His other lies and crimes and policies that harm the environment and future in order to favor fatcats over hardworking people... those pale in comparison to his crimes against humanity. If you haven't seen those and admitted them then you're either f*ing blind or evil, yourself... no two ways about it.

So, this is the last straw for me. This is my Rubicon. This is my breaking point. This is NOT politics as usual. This is a rancid, putrid, perverted evil across America. So here's my advisory to my friends, family, whomever...

You vote for trump again and I will have nothing to do with you. It's over. I've had enough of your ignorance, excuse-making, stupidity, selfishness, racism, and lack of morality. I'm making a stand for HUMAN BEINGS, and sometimes that comes at a price. I'm willing to pay it.

I do.

This namby pamby approach to politics is self-defeating.

There's a big reason Republicans have controlled Federal government for years now while representing only 40% of the population: they know how to play the game. They understand the power of sloganizing, castigating, invective, and action.
