Watching how quickly all these companies crumble, it really is astonishing the Obama and Clinton didn’t take on Fox News for all it’s bullshit.

McCarthy was in fact backed in 1946 in the Republican primary against progressive Robert M. La Follette Jr. by the Wisconsin Communist Party because they felt that La Follette would be more effective in opposing communism.

And yet more than half backed Trump, by far the more pro-Israel candidate.

Not favoring Israel’s behavior is not the same thing as not supporting Israel existing.

And yet two thirds of Americans supported the most pro-Israel candidate we’ve ever had.

The youth never show.

And the “pro-war crowd” is larger than the “anti-war crowd” where it comes to Israel.

Those weird little smiles she draws really freak me out.

What makes you think that?

What evidence do you have?

The fact a bunch of people on Twitter said it doesn’t mean it’s a 1:1 ratio to voting.

All the polls agree people lean more towards Israel than Palestine. Particularly in swing states like Ohio and Pennsylvania.

I had an idea for a story about Steampunk Radical Reconstruction in 1880s and some of the characters I imagined looked like him, but with a top hat.

The problem is the average American ain’t gonna do that kinda work.

I mean, it hasn’t thus far.

Have you ever considered that running on a platform of “America sucks” is unlikely to get you elected in America?

I’m not sure. Certainly, the weirdos who make the military their whole personality back him, but I haven’t seen any evidence that he’s outstandingly popular with the rank and file and his plans to completely gut the officer corps can’t have made him popular there.

Is it wrong that I am less infuriated by this than I am by the fact people still worship this idiot?

At this point, I am exhausted with being outraged by him. I cannot hate him more than I already do. Doing more evil shit may actually make me hate him less, because I simply cannot keep up to date with all the new reasons to hate him. But I cannot comprehend how millions of people can function in the world while still behaving like everything he does is objectively right. Not even the truly repulsive, monstrous shit, but the petty, insufferable bullshit like this. How do you excuse it? It do not comprehend how anyone can look at this and say, “Yeah, this guy should have nigh-unlimited power over the country and the ability to throw the world into chaos with a Tweet.”

It’s almost impressive how quickly the whole of the business world capitulated to Donald Trump.

Companies will raise prices to account for what they’re losing on the tariffs.

I saw someone say it seems that the tariffs were calculated by dividing our trade deficit by their exports to us and cutting that number in half. Another person analyzed his charts and concluded they look a lot like they were generated by AI.

So, there is, literally no basis in logic. Either one of Trump’s minions calculated what it would take to recoup the difference in the trade deficit and just wrote it down and he announced that as the new basis for international trade, which has never, ever been done, for the reason that it is fucking idiotic, or he asked Gemini how to execute his already objectively stupid policy and wrote an Executive Order making it the law.

And the fact that we are forced to accept people on the Internet’s guesses about how he calculated these numbers may actually be worse than the fact that just about every product on the market more complex than a stapler just jumped about 30% in price.

I’d say it’s also a problem that the sort of people who use the Internet to find people to beat up are idiots, so even if they aren’t going out of their way to victimize minorities, odds are they’ll just beat up some random person.

It is.

In light of the Trump Administration, a lot of the terrible shit other Presidents have done is a lot less noteworthy.

Remember Hillary’s emails?

I wonder if the people who go on about it actually understood the implications of the email server, or just reacted when Fox told them to.
