In which we yet again post yet another ten thousand plus interesting or amusing -or neither- tweets

With Reagan and Bush 1, we argued about policy. Starting with Gingrich, we’ve increasingly been arguing about what is real.

And some time in the Trump Era, America crossed some line and now 90% of our arguments about the federal government are about reality and not policies.

 

Fair point. Rumsfeld’s dismissal of the “Reality based community” was a hallmark of Bush II. And it’s 24-7-365 with Trump.

 

Incredibly proud of my husband @StephenM. Four years of hardwork, dedication and loyalty. And for his dedication to contribute to creating the most successful DAY 1 in HISTORY 🔥🔥 pic.twitter.com/Wr7PqZhVvc

Oh look -- she is so proud of her husband. That's why she's off getting cornholed by Elon at his compound in Texas. She's like Nancy Mace's long lost twin sister.

 

Wasn't Trump and the MAGAverse giving out nutshots to John McCain before, during, and after his cancer treatments and after he passed?

 

If I may paraphrase, with fascists, the hypocrisy is the point. Fascists either want to be ubermenschen, or they want to be ruled by worthy ubermenschen. And superior beings like ubermenschen aren’t bound by the need to be intellectually consistent. The constant lying and the weathervane political values are demonstrations of their greatness.

 

Hence the assassination of a Minnesota Democratic and her husband by a Trump supporter is met with a round of universal silence on the right. The killing of a right wing internet celebrity results in calls to arms and in flags flying at half staff.

incidentally, it’s worth remembering that, according to standard flag protocol, they should have still been at half mast on Inauguration Day in memory of Jimmy Carter. Trump didn’t like that, so his whims were, as always, catered to.

Every accusation is….

In recent days we have learned just how many Americans in positions of authority—child services, law clerks, hospital nurses, teachers, gov’t workers, even DOD employees—have been deeply and violently radicalized. The consequence of a vast, organized ecosystem of indoctrination.

The greatest irony of these ramblings is these people went to places like Harvard, Yale, and Duke. Or in some cases, Ohio State.

They couldn't get invited to a party at Michigan State they're that detestable.

 

I mean, Trump brags about going to Penn. To reiterate a point I made elsewhere, fascists revel in the hypocrisy because they revel in being above the laws, both moral and legislative. What’s the point of fascism if its leaders can’t act with impunity? It’s literally the appeal of fascism.

 

Allegedly cornholed

 

Daddy got him in there. Jared's dad got him into Harvard by donating a few mill or some crap. To sorta quote John Housesman - they did it the old-fashioned way...they didn't earn it.

 

I couldn’t get a screenshot of the reply, but it was about men looking for this and spending hours wandering around in fruitless, pathetic attempts to find it.

 

Someone wrote "Stephen Miller got into politics because his arms were too weak to strangle prostitutes"

 

He deserves to end up like that character in The Green Mile.

 

Does this seem likely? Plausible?

The ghost of J. Edgar Hoover in Hell is saying, "dude. Tone it down. That would be ridiculous even by my low standards."

 

Trump said drugs killed 300,000,000 people last year, and it’s perfectly normal.

so he's off by a magnitude of, literally, one hundred. You libz just don't get him. He exaggerates because he cares so much about us.
