I’m sorry he got conscripted and had no control over his choices. Truly a terrible tragedy.

Tell me a scenario in which Trump accepts that his completed ballroom is being used by a Democrat or a Republican he hates. This is, literally, a monument to permanence. It’s not the action of someone planning to leave.

It’s going to be so funny when White House demolition ends, but somebody fucks up and construction can’t begin.

Uncanny.
I will never for a moment wonder again how it could have happened. I see exactly how it happened. You just need one malignant narcissist and then a whole lot of ordinary, stupid people to give themselves over to either raw hate or determined indifference. It rides again.

It is, as they say, fire.

The fellow is a catastrophe. But that is no reason why we should not find him interesting, as a character and as an event.
Consider the circumstances. Here is a man possessed of a bottomless resentment and a festering desire for revenge; a man ten times a failure, extremely lazy, incapable of steady work; a man who has spent long periods in institutions; a disappointed bohemian artist; a total good-for-nothing. And here is a people obsessed with powerful though far less justifiable feelings of defeat and inferiority, and unable to think of anything save how to retrieve its lost "honor." And then he— who had learned nothing, and in his dreamy, obstinate arrogance never would learn anything; who had neither technical nor physical discipline, could not sit a horse, or drive a car, or fly a plane, or do aught that men do, even to begetting a child—he develops the one thing needful to establish a connection between him and the people: a gift of oratory. It is oratory unspeakably inferior in kind, but magnetic in its effect on the masses: a weapon of definitely histrionic, even hysterical power, which he thrusts into the nation's wound and turns round. He rouses the populace with images of his own insulted grandeur, deafens it with promises, makes out of the people's sufferings a vehicle for his own greatness, his ascent to fantastic heights, to unlimited power, to incredible compensations and over-compensations.

It’s OK if you don’t immediately recognize the Nazi symbols. But maybe listen to the people who do?

So instead of Trump supporters being millions and millions of people, it's only millions? What a relief.

This makes me yearn for the days of the early 80s when I used to get stoned and watch televangelists for entertainment. Benny Hinn, Paul & Jan Crouch, and the ruler of televangelism, Robert Tilton.

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

You pour concentrated carrot juice in your eyes. Not only will it solve pepper spray issues, in high enough doses it will give you X-Ray vision.

For spicy chili, the correct remedy is full-fat sour cream. Don't put that in your eyes though.
