Pie charts are legitimately poo poo for more than two or maybe three segments. Bar charts are right to mock them.

I mean yeah, UKIP blew their wad and immediately jumped poo poo, but they were rising bigly until then. I'd say that the same could hypothetically happen to Trump, in a world where hope still lived.

UKIP is a one-issue party. They won. They have pretty much nothing more to do, so it's normal they're deflating like a cold soufflé.

If the British Parliament nixes Brexit, UKIP will be reinvigorated, though. You can be sure of it.

Really we need some kind of Secretary of Zoos and just shove Newt in that position. He'd be happy, he'd probably actually try to do good things. It's honestly really weird to see pictures of Newt with animals, knowing how vile he is, because he goes from hog jowled hatemonger to kid in candy store. If only he had gone into veterinary medicine or something and never been within 1000 miles of DC. :smith:

I'm in disbelief about this

He's not saying "hey everyone please do not commit hate crimes in my name"

He's not even saying "Dear protesters, I understand your concerns but I promise I will represent your interests and be the best president ever #MAGA"

The President-Elect of the US is whining on Twitter about the fact that people are protesting him. :psyduck: Everything he does is baffling.

It's going to be amazing when someone gets into a flame war with the literal president of the US. I know Obama was on twitter too but he was all statesman-y and restrained in that "what percentage of your posts are actually made by you personally" kind of way, Trump's gonna be subtweeting drama or whatever and it's going to be surreal

It's not just the governor's race though. I want to make drat certain that Sherrod Brown doesn't end up like Russ Feingold did. But yeah, it's a start. Well, the start is at the local level, but I get the point.

Oh gently caress off. This is the left wing version of "Obama taking our guns and instituting sharia law!!!" This isn't the first time the Republicans have ever been in power and some of these are god drat ridiculous. Banning vaccines? Get the gently caress out of here.

Except these are things Republicans openly admit they want to do, Obama doesn't really want to take your guns and definitely doesn't want to institute sharia law. Whether they succeed or not isn't the issue, the fact that those are things they would do given the chance is bad enough.

Now that he doesn't have to play favorites Ramirez is free to spend the next 4-8 years bemoaning the decline of his once great party. We'll probably see an increase in that soon enough

Im thinking an enormous, overly detailed golden throne, tiny trump sitting in it wearing huge oversize crown that says "THE KING OF DEBT"

I think trump will be tiny in all political cartoons

edit: or the throne is on a big indistinct pile of rubble labeled debt, crown just says "the king", that seems more insulting to the readers intelligence because of course he's a king he has a loving crown ramirez you hack

Please indicate to me where the Republican party has suggested banning vaccines because I fail to see how that isn't the same hysteria as "mild gun control laws = taking all our guns"
