Hard to say if the Haley's Comet quote is the product of a wrecked mind or some sort of sly commentary on mass media consumption in the 80s.

The Lincoln Bedroom thing must've been from Nancy. lol at the wife of social conservatives' god is a fortune telling witch who can supposedly suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.

That nun rape incident happened in 1979 under Carter's presidency but Reagan threw the CIA and fucktons of military aid into the El Salvadoran civil war that blew up because "oh gently caress Commies"

He was not making a joke about mass media about Halleys Comet. He had the same attention span and level of curiosity as our current Lol in Chief.

Reagan was not bright at all but he had infinitely more focus even near the end of his presidency than Trump has ever had in his life. I don't remember Reagan ever trailing off into gibberish but that's been a signature Trump thing through his entire career.

e: here he is at age 80, put him next to any lengthy unscripted Trump recording and just lol

I posted some Reagan lols a few days ago. Here are a few more:

1/71986

President Reagan begins his 33rd press conference by calling the Vienna airport "Vietnam International", calls 11 year old terrorist victim Natasha Simpson "Marsha Simpson" and says Qaddafi is "not only a barbarian but he's flaky"

1/15/1986

President Reagan is asked if he intends to see Halley's Comet. "If it's a choice between sleeping or seeing it," he replies, "I'll wait and see it on television."

4/9/1986

President Reagan says he rarely quotes William F. Buckley, Jr., "Because he uses too big a words."

10/22/1986

"I was in such a hurry, I wrote my last name first."

- President Reagan, after after signing his tax reform bill "Reagan Ronald"

2/12/1987

President Reagan tells a group of junior high students about how Rex barks in front of Lincoln's bedroom and won't go in, which makes the President think Lincoln's ghost is in there. "Well," he says, "I guess that's enough of a history lesson here for today."

Please keep posting these, they are awesome. The ghost history lesson was just lmao.

I think my favorite thing about Gianforte winning is the same thing I liked about DeVos winning: they are now going to have a life of non-stop scrutiny and aggravation instead of just enjoying life with their riches like normal people would enjoy.

So think about how mad this big babby got when being asked if he supports the new healthcare bill. He couldn't even handle that! Now imagine him being asked ACTUAL questions. This buffoon is going to have a loving brain aneurism if he gets asked about budget proposals or something.

He probably had his rear end kissed his entire life and had nobody question him or give him poo poo- he was the boss, after all. He somehow thinks that this is the old days where nobody questioned public officials; kinda like when police officers used to get away with poo poo before video cameras became cheap and small.

Him and DeVos are two people that could have just rode off the rest of their golden years enjoying an easy life where virtually everyone liked them, and no one really knew or cared who they were. You know how celebrities always say they of course love the money but hate being in the public and being harassed all day? These people did the opposite: they were already rich, and said to themselves "you know what I need in my life? ~50% of the population hating my loving guts and constant stress and scrutiny but if I can privatize some schools and cut Medicaid a bit it will allllll be worth it".

First they came for the Columbia J school grads

quote:

Taking a page from Trump’s playbook, Gianforte regularly made fun of East Coast reporters on the campaign trail to gin up his supporters. Indeed, his altercation Wednesday night was widely laughed off by attendees at his Election Day party, as they stared — some angrily — at the gathered press. When Gianforte apologized to the reporter he assaulted in his speech at the end of the night, an attendee yelled that he was forgiven, as others shook their head, expressing the opinion that he shouldn't have to apologize.

Earlier in the evening, the media-hatred was even a punchline of supporters’ jokes.

Eyeing a reporter’s press badge skeptically just after polls closed, one attendee explained, “We’re looking for the right press to flip off.” Then she laughed and walked away.

I'm pretty sure that sociopaths don't love to be told they're pieces of poo poo or to have their egos threatened in any way. The only thing keeping Donny Jumbo Shrimp Trump from having a literal stroke or launching the nukes is the fact that everybody at the White House hides negative press from him. A sociopath isn't going to change their behavior or their overinflated opinion of their own greatness, but they probably don't like being reminded constantly what a fuckhead they are by millions of people.

The only thing they'll love is getting petty revenge by stripping people of their civil rights and health care.

I hope no impeachment for at least a couple years

I don't think there will be any impeachment, ever, because the Republicans will forever control all branches of government! If you really think about it, American voters have basically given up and don't much care anymore, and Democrats are simply too incompetent and elitist to win majorities in the future. They will probably just continue to achieve notable minority status in Congress while looking down their noses at those Trumpian oafs, confused by their constant victories.

This has all come about because of the Democratic Party's abandonment of their traditional support of working people; the Clinton administration began the soft wandering into the conservative camp, and it has continued with reckless abandonment ever sense. Even hapless American voters have caught on and couldn't be bothered to give any shits about Hillary Clinton. She was clearly a Wall Street shill hell-bent on personal enrichment and glorification, just as narcissistic as Trump (albeit less of a jackass). When the news of the DNC's complete betrayal of the progressives spread, the Democratic Party essentially became a dead shell.

Oh, the news will continue to promote the entertaining drama of a "two-party system," but we all know it is really just one party. There is no successful opposition party any longer.

The light at the end of the tunnel is that this economic system is destined to collapse; there is no good outcome for capitalist economies, and technology will eventually press labor to the breaking point. That is when real change happens; rural poverty will realize it isn't much different than urban poverty, and out come the guillotines!
