Personally I choose not to make light of McCain's death. Not because of decorum, but because of a superstitious fear of getting his brain tumor as punishment. Its like not whistling when walking past a graveyard. Skeletons have power.

A preview of the 2030s "We may disagree on how President Trump served his country in the late 2010s, but during his time on this Earth he served his country according to his steadfast beliefs unwaveringly and inspired many Millenials to follow in his footsteps on the path into politics. I offer condolences to his family and wish them well." and now back to coverage of Hurricane Bob, the hurricane with the worst possible name and the worst possible wind speed, hitting in the worst possible major cities to be within during a hurricane, with casualties massive enough for it to be said that no one could have predicted them. galenanorth fucked around with this message at 05:49 on Aug 26, 2018 |

Corsair Pool Boy posted:Does what Trump is doing count as serving his country? No, he is serving himself, and he has been using every method possible for sucking American dollars into his bank account since before his time in office, such as requiring the Secret Service to stay in Trump Tower. That won't stop people from rushing to compete in magnanimity by saying otherwise, though.

But I am never going to hold public office so I am glad there's one less Republican on Earth.

The entire concept of a "circular firing squad" is dumb, because there is zero evidence that such a thing actually causes any net harm (or at least causes more harm than people who try to encourage false "unity"). The only explanation I've ever been able to come up with for people who complain about that sort of thing is that they just flat-out disagree that the thing people are condemning is bad, but lack the bravery to directly make that argument. edit: If anything, it is heartening how so many on the left won't excuse dumb poo poo even if it's coming from someone like Sanders or AOC or whatever.

"The BernieBros are a cult that think Saint Sanders can do no wrong and never criticize Dear Leader, they can't even see reality!" later "BernieBros criticized Bernie for doing something wrong, circular firing squad!
