Cipolla’s 5 Laws Of Stupidity:
1. We underestimate the # of stupid people in the world.
2. The probability that a person is stupid is independent of any other characteristic.
3. Stupid people cause harm to others w/o any gain for, & at times, damaging themselves.

I’m not sure I understand what “fight” means in the context Liberals use it. March for it? Yell while wearing pussy hats for it? Sign wave for it? Because, where I’m from “fight” means you hit a motherfucker.
So, what are you asking me to do, SPECIFICALLY?

The thing that makes Obama such a masterful speaker is his command of nuance. Too many Democrats think it has to be all or nothing and forget that multiple things can hold true at once.
“The key point is this: Without this abuse of power, Trump could not be unleashing such havoc. In short, Trump’s lawlessness and his economic destruction are the same story: The former doesn’t just enable the latter; the two are inextricably entangled with each other.”
“Left-leaning economic populism does appear to be the way forward for Democrats. But it can’t be right that this diminishes the case for a full-throated party-wide indictment of Trump’s abuses of power and efforts to dismantle the rule of law.” newrepublic.com/article/1936...

What’s worse? Soon he’ll begin to operate the scheme that way because the lie will become his reality and then it really will be a mess of epic proportions.
Sure he shared a video that says he’s doing it on purpose. It’s been weeks of “Sir, are you doing this because you’re a stupid motherfucker or is there a plan?” lobbed at him.
His ego can’t take it. So, he’s now going to pretend this is all part of the plan.

Trump’s, Rubio’s, and JD’s panic reactions to China’s retaliation tells me this was NOT in their playbook. So, if crashing the economy was their goal, it wasn’t their goal to crash it *this* particular way.

Caught off guard by China’s retaliation to his tariff, Trump fired off a furious response to the news that China is slapping 34% tariffs on all goods imported from the U.S.
“CHINA PLAYED IT WRONG, THEY PANICKED - THE ONE THING THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO DO!” he posted Friday morning.

Why I don’t give a fuck if Biden was senile:
1.) He cared about this country & its people.
2.) He cared about service people.
3.) He tried to do the best he could for the most people.
4.) He treated our allies w/ respect.
5.) He tried to leave the country better than he found it.
