Just your daily reminder that Donald Trump is president-elect and the world will die in 100 years from global warming.

"Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) says he's supporting President-elect Donald Trump's pick of Sessions, journalist Salena Zito tweeted Friday afternoon.

Manchin's support is a big boost to Sessions's chances. He needs a simple majority in the Senate to be confirmed, and the GOP is expected to control 52 seats in the chamber after next month's Louisiana runoff elections. "

To be fair, Manchin is probably the worst Dem senator by a country mile, but Sessions was going to get approved the second he was announced due to Senatorial chumminess.

I think they're going with the strategy of helping them get the worst people so they can point at the horrible poo poo they do later to try and sway others to their side. You know, the famously successful strategy they used for the Republican primary.

Even if Trump completely destroys the EPA, I don't think he can undo free market forces going towards climate change

Even capitalists have some survival instincts

In that sense, what is W. Va going to do in 4 years when they realize Trump hasn't brought back coal?

If things don't change they'll vote Republican again because winning the culture war against mexicans and muslims and gay liberal city-dwellers will make up for their economic situation.

Unless someone shows them who the real enemies are.

M.A.M.O.N. (Monitor Against Mexicans Over Nationwide) is a satirical fantasy sci-fi shortfilm that explores with black humor and lots of VFX the outrageous consequences of Donald Trump´s plan of banning immigration and building an enormous wall on the Mexico - US border.

The dark comedy showcases a spectacular fight involving bizarre weapons, and numerous dark jokes about the cliches and stereotypical antics of the Mexican and Latino community, as the quinceañera, the quetzalcoatl, the lucha libre, the mariachi, the chapulín colorado, etc.

Came out before the election, apparently.
