Every time I remember that he's still in prison, my day gets a tad brighter.

Exactly. Everything is framed as a horserace and not like it has actual consequences for real people.

I hate those losers so much. My absolute loathing of them motivates me to fight them and their horrific plans with every fiber of my being.

As I wrote, elite lawlessness also proves out the basic premise of Trumpism, which is that all of governance is finally just rich creeps doing whatever they want, whenever they want; the degeneracy of the people doing it, and what they do, is a self-perpetuating thing. defector.com/kingdom-of-t...

I'm also in the Twin Cities and last week there was a stag casually walking around my backyard. I've seen lots of deer in my life but I can count on one hand how many were large bucks.

Lmao, either way not great!

My 5 year old has been into the Trolls movies lately and I have used this opportunity to teach him about NSYNC. In the 3rd Trolls movie, the whole group shows up in a cameo as a troll boy band!

Correct. It was clear when he came down that escalator in 2015. We had several off ramps. "Grab em by the pussy" should have been the end of it. Just a total moral failure.

Right, and this was already known!! AND YET

Very unlikely. What was already publicly known is damning. Trump's cult doesn't actually care about sex trafficking; they only use it as a cudgel to beat their enemies with.

Hmm weird it's almost as if their deep concern and moral outrage was just a cudgel to bash their enemies and not actually a concern for victims of sex trafficking

Because everyone from voters to the press to leaders in industry and academia decided it was just fine because something something grocery prices, or the horror of having a woman POTUS

I'm about halfway through the Revolutions podcast on the French Revolution (recorded fall 2014/winter 2015). Just the other day, I said to my spouse in response to the podcast, humans really do just make the same mistakes over and over to (not) learn the same painful lessons.

At this point, I don't think they would care if Trump straight up said it out loud.
