Nah, Trump wouldn't even be the first moronic rapist we've had in office. We just didn't real have press that gave a poo poo about covering things like that in ye olden days.

Has anyone kept up with Louise Mensch? I remember weeks ago she was saying the President has already been indicted. I know it's a load of BS but I am curious if she is still spinning that web or if she's just casually moved on to some other attention grabber.

I was fairly sure he had lat least one sexual assault accuser and I'm willing to assume any white man in power accused of sexual assault is guilty because they usually are.

Presidents Harrison through Buchanan were all pretty worthless, though at this rate Trump will be lucky if he ranks above Pierce

aaaaaaaaaaaaa I don't really want to be backed into the lovely rhetorical corner of defending a potential rapist, so I won't. It's possible he raped her, sure, the allegation was made and should be taken seriously. But the fact is that nothing compelling was ever produced as evidence, and the leap from allegation to "well Clinton is a rapist so checkmate libtards :smugdog: " is just so vast.

I did that before posting here, they threatened to increase the chemtrail output over my house, I felt good about my decision to block a bunch of them a while back and worse about my decision to leave the others.

Trump will have the dubious honor of being corrupt in service to a hostile foreign power which puts him in a league of his own w/r/t lovely presidents, IMO.

What are the chances that Trump is under an investigation, but Comey would have maintained otherwise?

Also I started to re-watch The Thick of It. It is really cathartic right now and we are blessed that there is no Malcom Tucker running around to do damage control on the WH's endless fuckups. Even if you've seen it before, I recommend it. it has matured very well in light of our daily circus of political insanity.

I mean, I feel like there is a broader point to be made about the continued exploitation of prisoners than just screaming "Hillary owned slaves." Like, maybe we should consider that these practices (and far, far worse) are still going on? And that the current administration is increasing this poo poo?

Or we can just poo poo on Hillary for not ending the program as first lady of Arkansas
