  1. The take is lazy because her campaign was lazy. She had no great ideas (except to ban Trump from Twitter), reversed course on a few occasions, couldn’t win Black voters, and got out hustled quickly. She never led in any poll at any time so I don’t know where the high expectations came from other than she looked good on paper with all the boxes she checked. Her unusually aggressive online supporters did a better job of promoting her than she did. Biden is going to run again anyway so she’s pretty much irrelevant for the next five years.
  2. As bad as she is, she’s still better than many alternatives. In hindsight with the VP pick, her presidential campaign was never serious so I’m not going to count that against her. I mean, have you seen Joe Biden’s previous Presidential campaigns? No one cares.
  3. That’s the cover story and probably true but I don’t see any poor sex offenders getting out on prosecutorial incompetence.
  4. Bill Cosby was released because his net worth is approximately $400,000,000 Analysis past that is semantics
  5. I remember taking a lot of shit for applauding Jeff Flake when he’d go on the Senate floor and rhetorically reject Trumpism. A reformed GOP was wishful thinking on my part but at least Flake had the decency to dip out. His seat is now occupied by a democrat.
  6. “PROUD WHITE CHRISTIAN MAN” getting top billing was an excellent choice in the collage of trash.
  7. However, one could argue the Romneys and Cheneys do more harm than good by giving the entire party political cover. These people aren’t in a vacuum, they see the movement they are a part of and they choose to stay and fight on behalf of that movement. This is akin to finding some nazis that weren’t cool with killing Jews and would have taken the party in a different direction.
  8. Was thinking about this earlier today, on some level I almost respect the commitment to absurdity. I’d expect half of these GQP people in office to have periodic public mental breakdowns just trying to keep their bullshit straight. It’s some real Colonel Kurtz delusional energy but on a massive scale.
  9. The assumption that Allen flipping would result in Trump consequences was ridiculous anyway. There isn’t a lack of evidence or a missing smoking gun to bring charges against Trump. There are however, plenty of excuses and an endless supply of “flippers” to keep kicking the can on holding Trump accountable.
  10. So I hope for the best on this but my expectations are low. Democrats have a real hard time controlling the narratives or going on offense in information spaces and Republicans are exceptional at distorting reality to suite their interests. The corporate media establishment nor the Biden administration are going to do us many favors here either. Trump literally organized and mobilized an attack on Congress in broad daylight, while they were certifying an election and people were murdered. I don’t know how the government maintains credibility without using its authority to punish Trump and his co-conspirators. But at least they’re going to try I guess.
  11. But I was told America was chosen by God to be a paradise for white christians.
  12. (Biden using the NSA to get Tucker taken off the air would be dope tho)
