  1. I'm pretty sure the new voters he turned out from the alt-right/white nationalist fringes cared about Hillary's gender. Yes they're extremely racist, but they're also extremely misogynistic.
  2. What’s the +/- on number of drinks he’s had?
  3. Them underperforming expectations somewhat and winning a small majority in the House two years after attempting a violent coup is hardly a rejection of the GOP. That's just wishful thinking.
  4. I can't wait to see how many times he's typed out the n-word in a draft of a tweet.
  5. This sort of shit is so funny. Everyone saw them try a coup when they lost and they retook the House two years later. The GOP will be fine.
  6. Yes and no. Financial precarity is certainly a problem that motivates some assholery. But many, if not most, of the biggest assholes are educated and pretty-to-very well off.
  7. This is one of those "everything before the word 'but' doesn't matter" things (yes I'm aware that the word "but" isn't actually included in what I quoted, it's just clearly implied).
  8. I gotta say, "conservative Americans are opposed to measures to mitigate climate change because they're concerned for the environmental destruction carried out in Africa and India" is a new line of bullshit I never thought I'd see.
  9. I haven't read the article, but I feel very safe in assuming he doesn't point out that the mythical past when people were much nicer includes shit like slavery, Jim Crow, rampant and largely socially accepted accepted sexual abuse of children, etc. There's some interesting evidence indicating that social media actually has contributed to the increase in the murder rate among young people, and the pandemic pretty clearly played a huge part in turning more people into angry public assholes rather than just private assholes. But there were tons of assholes in prior decades too. It's just that more of their asshole behavior was specifically directed at women and minorities and other white people who may not have been assholes themselves didn't have a problem with that.
  10. No Labels is a Republican ratfucking operation that hopes to get Trump re-elected.
  11. You can't make me read David Brooks. I just won't do it.
  12. As a lawyer who in the past has both worked on a landscaping crew and waited tables, I can say being a lawyer is absolutely the easiest. Of course, I'm not a litigator.
  13. Chuck Grassley was involved in discussions to replace Pence on 1/6 once Pence said he wouldn’t cooperate.
  14. I bet this dude threatens to shoot up FBI offices any time he starts thinking about real ids.
  15. She clearly had a real strong internal locus of control.
  16. I mean, if we were going to guess professions that have the most child molesters, I’d probably put CFB coaches just under Catholic priests and cops. This is very funny given conservatives’ constant need to control others.
  17. That's the lie they tell. They know black people are nervous around cops, they just think that black people should be nervous around cops.
  18. Ana was so not triggered he had to debate people on the internet all evening. You love to see that kind of self control.
