What a goofy fucker.

Was it JEB! who teased his campaign announcement with that website that slowly revealed his logo, day by day? Or was that some other failed candidate like Rick Perry? All I remember is that I'm pretty sure they gave up on the tease like 2 days in and just put the whole thing up.

This was good. Also good are his official Louisiana governor's portrait (that makes him look like a white man) and his official campaign slogan of "Tanned, Rested, and Ready"

iirc he also looked very :madmax: in it? or maybe just in general, i honestly forget

The Trump admin announcing that they were going to give Kodak over $700 million to help develop a covid vaccine even though the company has nothing to do with medical research. Followed shortly by company executives dumping stock when the share price bumped.

Like most of his lines, Donald Trump says his nicknames for former and current GOP rivals Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) just came to him. "Let me start with Little Marco," the Republican presidential frontrunner said in an interview with New York published Monday. "He just looked like Little Marco to me. And it's not Little. It's Liddle. L-I-D-D-L-E."

Cruz's nickname, Trump explains, also has a particular pronunciation. "And it’s not L-Y-I-N-G Ted Cruz," Trump said. "It's L-Y-I-N apostrophe. Ted's a liar, so that was easy."

My favorite part is he dropped out cause he figured out he couldnt win, and said several times that if that if the rest didn't drop and solidify quick, Trump was going to win. Dude comes off as Americas Dumbest Goober but he was the only R candidate to actually figure out and attempt to solve that commonality problem.

During the Democratic primaries there was a thing about Trump trying to workshop nicknames for potential opponents. Then the best he could come up with for Biden was "Sleepy" despite the fact that his team kept lying and saying Biden wasn't leaving his basement and "Hidin' Joe Biden" would have fit better.

There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That's an entitlement. The government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what. And I mean the president starts off with 48, 49... he starts off with a huge number. These are people who pay no income tax. Forty-seven percent of Americans pay no income tax. So our message of low taxes doesn't connect. So he'll be out there talking about tax cuts for the rich. ... My job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. What I have to do is convince the 5–10% in the center that are independents, that are thoughtful, that look at voting one way or the other depending upon in some cases emotion, whether they like the guy or not.

You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. (Laughter/applause) Right? (Laughter/applause) They're racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic – you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people – now have 11 million. He tweets and retweets their offensive hateful mean-spirited rhetoric. Now, some of those folks – they are irredeemable, but thankfully, they are not America.

Why is Hillary Clinton such an rear end in a top hat?

daughter of privilege, basically been destined for great things since undergrad, then hosed up and failed the dc bar exam and followed her lovely boyfriend to his podunk home state and has deeply resented everyone around her ever since

the combination of crushing political humiliation at every stage of her public life and her own inability to live up to her own "promise" (whatever the gently caress that means) along with being a loving shark means that hillary clinton is a psychopath who believes she's entitled to the upper echelons of power because she shook all the right hands, said all the right things, went to the right school, did a good job as a governor and then president's wife, and it's her loving turn, and the fact that it never actually worked out like that made her bitter and mean

you see flashes of her humanity in stuff like her unfailing loyalty towards monumental fuckups on her staff (especially to huma fuckin abedin jesus christ) but for the most part she just has nothing left but ambition
