At this point, I’m just hoping Trump’s health lasts through this term. Because he’s so injured his own brand that I doubt many of the GOP insiders would try doing the third-term putsch for his increasingly demented ass. And if he dies before 2028, Vance would go into that election AS President.

Oh, and…more guns, of course. Always more guns.

As a clinical diagnosis?

Being ten years old in the summer of 1977 and getting to see Star Wars in its initial theatrical run. I think I made my mom take me at least 8 times by the end of that summer.

Do better, @rollingstone.com for fuck’s sake.

“Was involved in.” 🤬 JFC. People might think of him differently if the news copy weren’t so obsequious deferential. There is no real chance of a defamation lawsuit if news reports stick to the facts: “Conner Smith killed a 77-year old woman when he struck her with his truck.”

Yes, though that classification as a formal clinical diagnosis has been long-deprecated and is used nowhere now.

Idiots. Lackwits. Chowderheads. English excels at providing a choice of adjectives for any occasion, most of which aren’t even intentionally bigoted towards an entire group of people. Choosing that word is just that: an active choice to be a bigoted asshole.

“No, your honor, I didn’t say I want to divorce Daisy because she’s crazy, I said I wanted a divorce because she’s fucking Goofy.” 🥁

A man (or in this case, boy) does not have to cave to that with which he already agrees.

Be careful what you wish for, there are TONS of people older than Bazelon Jr here who would also be eager to spew this kind of poorly-reasoned, bad faith, own-goal bullshit. Nepobaby’s “unique perspective” (at least to the Monthly) is precisely that he’s 23 instead of 45 or 60.

I know, but what kind of monster interest rate would that have been?

Holy shit how is that literally possible?

M Emmet Walsh was pretty great in Blood Simple.

That is why this country has always had a Trump-shaped hole in the presidency: we’ve been building the only thing that would allow him to ascend to the pinnacle of anything.

Nope, I was less than a year old when this happened, so no steps for me. 😁

I don’t think Cotton is even lying here. I’m sure he truly didn’t see anything disturbing about it, and that is a big part of the problem.
