So I just emerged from a slow teleport from the year 1996. Can someone please sum up the last 21 years of history for me, or is this joke finally loving dead after a week and a half?

God, Bill O'Reilly gets fired, Roger Ailes dies, Tucker Carlson plows Fox's ratings into the basement, and now Sean Hannity might quit in a screaming huff over a literal fake news conspiracy? Is there a term for a hat-trick where the team just keeps getting scored on? The correct answer is: A Vancouver Canucks game, but anyway

So I was watching The Flash instead (because I want to experience a sane reality where things make sense at least once a week); did Hannity nut up and quit , or was that tweet just a stunt to con people back into watching his show like I fully expected it to be?

And Joe Scarborough can go to hell right alongside them. Never forget: this man and his literal TV Wife are a huge reason the world has to endure Trump now because they lead the charge in normalizing him, and normalizing the godawful behaviour from Republicans he is now aghast at for some reason. gently caress Joe Scarborough into centre of the goddamn Sun.

Unzip and Attack posted:Some more than others. Scarborough was particularly guilty by giving an infamously softball interview where the downtime mics recorded Trump, Scarborough, and Mika giggling like idiots and reassuring each other the interview wouldn't be confrontational at all. Sure, some journalists helped Trump via inaction, but Scarborough was an active participant in the rise of Trump. Any regrets he has now can be shoved up his rear end, hopefully right before he gets fired for being a disgrace to cable journalism (which I know is saying a lot). More than that they had daily on air phone calls from Trump for nearly nine months after he first announced he was running where they basically put the show on hold and gave him like 20 of free air time to cement himself in the public consciousness even more. Joe was the #1 non- Trump hype man until Trump turned on him. And he now realizes what a terrible mistake that was and is going to be spending the rest of his media life trying to make amends for it with stuff like that stupid rant, and to that I say again, "gently caress Joe Scarborough right into the Sun."

Yeah, that's a textbook case of "senile grandpa forgets where he is and starts singing along to the catchy music." Just the way he starts swaying about with reckless abandon and is clearly singing very loudly so that he can try to be heard over the band. Now that is unsettling because he either has an utter lack of fucks for decorum and proper conduct at a remembrance ceremony, or yeah he just literally got distracted by the catchy music and couldn't help himself because he has the brain of a toddler.

America is a nation of infinite forgiveness and incurably short memory, where the Overton Window only moves in one direction: rightward.

I would not be surprised in the slightest if within the next two years we actually go from a G7 partnership to a G6 as Europe, Japan and Canada kick the United States out of the G7 ala Russia and the G8. Or, gently caress, even swap in China for America because China is literally a better faith actor and on its way to having a stronger economy than the United States is/does for the foreseeable future.

The thought of Trump just meandering up and down the halls of the White House screaming "I'M NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION!" in increasingly angry tones into any open door he bumbles across is just delightful. Chris Hayes was right, the man is still a living dril tweet.
