It's also a world where the republican party exists as a reasonable counterweight to the democratic party, a blend of forward thinking, fiscal conservatism and interpreting the constitution for the 21st century and both parties cooperate with each other for the sake of the American people

Presumably this is the same place where Newt Gingrich is a respected science television personality, like Bill Nye but for zoos and space. Every once in a while, he thinks about the good he could have done for the environment and science education if he had gone into politics instead, then sighs and shakes his head; he just finds working with animals and educating children so fulfilling.

From here on out expect the media to parade the social justice freakshow 24/7 with spoiled upper-middle class kids blubbering incoherently to the camera how the very idea of people voting for Trump or disagreeing with them in general sends them into spasms and is exactly equal if not worse then slavery.

Is it just students being a bit silly about things? Why is this a news story? The administration failed to create a safe space by not addressing the "Trump: 2016" chalkings. They are now reviewing security camera footage to track down and possibly punish the chalker(s).

Yeah, the well is pretty dry for mocking these people, the concepts of 'trigger' 'safe space' and 'microaggression' are functionally dead other then as a punchline. Hopefully they will refill it with their tears and creative media stunts before November!

As I left for work this morning, I discovered to my horror that the sidewalk in front of my house had been marked with an oppressive number grid commonly known as a "hopscotch." I was shaking so hard that I could hardly get my phone out of my pocket to call in sick. The next call I placed? The Mayor's office.

My prevailing hope this year is that Donald Trump eventually gets saturated in the way that Green Day did with American Idiot or Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. Maybe after the 1001st racist/bigoted/insane thing he says people will just start to roll their eyes because its old news. I feel like all Hillary has to do at that point is in a humoring tone at a debate say something to the effect of " We know Donald... you're the toughest there is... how could we forget?"

As soon as his opponent can say things like 'I don't think we should build a wall between here and mexico" and "not white people are not actually sand demons" he's going to have problems. The issue is his opponents can't attack him on his stances.
