(25,699 posts)41. Talking of vines, Trump is indeed a weedwhacker
Noisy, destructive, unfocused. He'll hit the vine and send bits of it flying in every fucking direction. So elect Clinton... who will hose the vine with weed killer and go have some champagne with Donald Trump while waiting for the vine to die "on its own."

This election is a lose-lose for the progressive agenda. The only question is what form the loss will take. Rapid destruction or slow, irreversible rot.
