Evil Fluffy posted:It's gonna be awesome once Sinclair owns 80% or so of all local broadcasting since they're ramping up their acqusitions and tens of millions of voters will never see anything negative about conservatives and everything negative about their opponents prior to elections. They're easily as evil as Fox News, if not moreso, but much better at not coming across as blatantly in the tank for the GOP. In a saner world, the FTC and FCC would block this, but they certainly aren't going to under this administration, and of course Sinclair is going to be doing their best in the meantime to make sure that situation continues.

DeathSandwich posted:Norquist was never a sane person. His whole schtick is that when he was a teenager he wrote a pledge that he still to this day gets all GOP politicians to sign saying that they promise to never ever raise taxes for any reason. He acts like this makes him a serious person. He's not muslim crazy though. I think a lot of people assume that means he isn't just doubling down in other areas, which is obviously does.

Everyone falls asleep every loving day, they'll understand. Or got interrupted and set it down but accidentally hit the Tweet button. They'll have a giggle, but they'll move on. Trying to cover it up as being intentional when it wasn't even a complete thought is beyond retarded, even for this exceptionally retarded administration.

seiferguy posted:On one hand, Barron is 11. On the other hand, there's a near 100% chance he's going to profit off the family name and be complicit in the poo poo they do when he's of age. But I suppose I'll give him the benefit the doubt! Eh, for all we know he hates his father. He might end up like Ron Reagan Jr. or that one Koch that never gets mentioned. The gay one.

Replace all instances of Barron with Eric in this whole thing and it becomes way funnier and also kinda more believable.

Apoplexy posted:Which one is Eric again? The bad Star Trek Changeling or the exotic animal murderer. Or is that the same one and Junior is housing other awful traits? The changeling. Though he probably also murders animals. Told everyone how they get all their money from the Russians these days, told everyone that the Syria strike was meant to prove there's no ties to Russia, extolled the virtues of nepotism, he's loving dumb, even for a Trump.
