i hope that some of the more savvy dems have been waiting for the elections to get closer and then just troll the poo poo out of trump so he has an utter public meltdown in september/october, so that instead of talking about policy or whatever we can keep the news cycle firmly fixed on trump's biggest weakness, which is that he is an odious wasteland of a person who attracts the worst people as his base

Where did "The Squad" materialize from? It seems like it just became a thing on friday and I hate that it's just being used to further other-ize the congresswomen. It seems like dumbass Politico bullshit.

If it's what they call themselves, then that's fine. But if its just a label some rear end in a top hat applied to them I'd like to know.

This is an example of where the right is taking the rhetoric:

https://twitter.com/RebelNewsOnline/status/1150875308599500801?s=19


Criticizing the camps is going to shortly become (in the minds of the Trumpstaffel) a justification for censure/violence/imprisonment. I expect we are only a few months away from conservative talking heads/MSM demanding that Democratic officials denounce leftist/antifa violence at the start of every panel segment.

And Pelosi/Schumer/Biden will be more than happy to oblige.

I have a guy who is not my boss, but the equivalent of my boss at our sister location, and he looks exactly like Michael Steele, except for not being black. That's a pretty big exception to be sure, but he has the exact same build, face, hair, and mustache.

The ridiculousness of the question doesn't matter the tiniest bit. Do you really think that the absurdity of the question will somehow sink through to either the right wing or the average American?

Yeah, that's bullshit. Trump completely ended Democratic infighting, got a few Republicans to (gently) criticize him, and did it because he's stupid and rash, not because he had a plan.

I mean left primary challenges are still an existential threat to corporate D's and the house leadership so he didn't really end anything. It's going to come back.

Legit this, it’s getting the “woke” treatment and it’s gross as hell.

Like, remember when woke was a term for black people by...black people? To describe being aware of the massive systemic injustice foisted upon them since the dawn of goddamn time? Not just white people trying to dunk on other white people?

quote:

“Bond is about the guns and the girls. When it comes to the seduction of women, there is a very very large difference between a woman and a man. I’m not even going to get into the lesbian aspect of this because I don’t know if this character is going to be a lesbian — let’s assume she’s not, for a second.

“Let’s assume that she’s just black, female James Bond which means she’s bedding the handsome men. That is not in any way a wish fulfillment fantasy for the men who typically watch the Bond films because a disproportionate share of the Bond audience is male.

“So unless you’re completely shifting the character, it makes no sense.”

Ben, I don't know how to tell you this... being seduced by a beautiful woman is indeed a fantasy most men have. Unless... there's something about this particular woman that disgusts you. Is it because she's British? Hmm.... I just can't tell.

I know he got poo poo on for the Rush limbaugh stuff and for generally having the audacity to occasionally speak a bit of truth to power (while also having some really bad views on the climate and other poo poo), but it's crazy how quickly he went from one of the rising stars of the GOP to pretty much a complete nobody. In retrospect it was right around the time that the GOP was re-forming itself in it's modern evangelical, anti-obama, proto-openly-racist form so it makes sense, but he seemed to be more a casualty of Reince's ambition than anything else.
