This feels a little embarrassing to ask, but what specifically did Joe Lieberman do that everyone hates him? I live in CT and it seems like literally everyone in the state despises him.

Wow, I had no idea Lieberman had swung that far to the right. I came to the state right as his term was ending, thank god.

Rigel posted:Regarding Trump not liking the 4 candidates and starting over on his FBI director search, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Trump asked each of them to swear an oath of loyalty and start yelling that the Russia probe is fake news, and all 4 of them went "uhhh..... no, this job was supposed to be politically independent so I won't do that." I was thinking along the same lines and I think what scares me is that the Republican rank and file is so willing to go along with anything Trump does that all he needs to do is find one shill willing to pledge his loyalty and that's it. And how hard can it be to find that one guy when you're completely uninterested in finding someone who is actually experienced and competent enough for that position?

Yeah, I don't see the point of talking about Bannon's children. Trump's kids outside of Barron are one thing because they keep poking their noses into politics, but Bannon's haven't done anything so it's just gross to bring them up

Apoplexy posted:She's better at evading the question than Trump is, at least. Awful as that is, it's competent villainy. Trump would've come right out and said something about how LGBTQ kids shouldn't be allowed an education with good Christians and then he would've called them a slur for good measure. This isn't a realistic depiction of what Trump would say because you didn't mention anything about him bragging about his electoral college victory

I really, really like that Comey points out that he realized in the very first meeting with Trump that he needed to write down every single thing that happened between the two of them - something he didn't feel he needed to do with Obama.

I love that photo so much, I totally forgot about that poor dog's 1000 yard stare, I can only imagine what horror's he's seen. I like to imagine the photographer told them to smile and each one of Huckabee's fugly rear end kids tried their best but only Sarah knew that normal people smile with their teeth (although she's fuzzy on the details).

I think Spicer has just finally realized that there is no point in sticking his neck out trying to defend a president who will very likely hours later contradict anything he says at that podium and then blame Spicer for screwing up. It seems like his press briefings the last couple weeks have even more "speaks for itself," "i think the president was very clear", etc deflections than ever before.
