Mourning in America - Trump Year One: November '16 to

youre thinking of frank surely

Sylvester Stallone is artsier than people tend to think. This cabinet post is also less important than the Secretary of State or Department of Ed positions so I'm not going to worry about it to much

(Quick cheap plug for the drunken podcast convo I recorded about Stallone movies with some folks a couple months back)

xp, yes a collector and a painter - though a fairly terrible one. He must have pretty good contacts to get shows at MoMA and the Russian Museum.

RIP Old Lunch

Stallone wrote/directed/produced a lot of his flicks, morseso than anyone else in the American 80s pantheon.

Moreso than Woody Allen?

I hope woody allen gets a cabinet position

Lena Dunham, too. They could hang out in Comet Ping Pong and talk policy and life, that'd make a movie I'm sure

Director of the Office of Head Start

so...what's up with this guy

He seems less impressive than his relative, Barack.

Best guess: he's trying to cash in.
Second best guess: he's mentally unbalanced.

I think it's a lil bit of both.

full credit for biding his time

One of the shitlords (Ch4rles J0hnson) is maintaining his account.

"shitlords"? not gonna Google that

I hate the world.

Moreso than Woody Allen?

American action pantheon, should have specified

hopefully there's an alternative universe somewhere where a roid-fuelled woody allen spent the 80s enacting reaganite justice against terrorists in a string of highly successful action movies

I bet a lot of not-voters are having not-buyers remorse.

So just the usual insult added to injury for the thousands of Midwestern POC whose attempts to register and/or vote on the day were rebuffed.

i think we all know what needs to happen to this pile of shit. not putting it here.

I agree that he needs a stern talking-to.

At the very least, he needs a pie thrown in his face

i agree the ghosts of past, present and future need to visit him on christmas eve to show him the error of his ways and encourage him to reform

so the reason they sat on this for a year is...

wait for it...

...they thought they were gong to win!

smdh it's like the mantra at the root of every fuckup.

"They thought she was going to win, so they were willing to kick the can down the road," NBC quoted one government official familiar with the situation.

Damned if you, damned if you don't tbh. If he'd brought it up he'd be 'un-presidential', meddling in the election and all right?

is "newsmax" actually a real news source?!

if you really trash yr definition.

may i ask again: who read the Podesta emails and had their minds CHANGED by them? I don't think the ppl who found satanic rituals and pederasty in them count.

is "newsmax" "nbc" actually a real news source?!

things the public needs to know, things they don't.

The issue with the hacks and emails is that they created conditions for vague innuendo. It was a totally substance free scandal, which is why she couldn't exculpate herself. How can you prove your innocence it you never hear the charges? Xp

Trump could have pulled something like that off regardless, but the frequent leaks just led to a slow bleed of "scandal," even though in this case she was a victim of a crime not a perpetrator. The power of the "emails" was that no one was sure why they should be upset about them.

I might need to sit with that Newsmax story for a little bit and really let it sink in, but at the moment it's making me angrier than almost anything else that's happened wrt the presidential election.

I don't think it would have made much of a difference tbh

think about what you are saying

xpost It's less about whether it would've made a difference and more about the administration making that determination themselves on our behalf.

marcos, fwiw, it's an NBC News story reposted by whatever the hell Newsmax is. If I get what you are saying.

the NBC News story to which it linked is real

everything is fine

I bet Trump is asking his people if the US can just give Taiwan to China.

Man, I hope he does not start a war with China before he becomes president.

I have a question, does he have or is he trying to build hotels or other holdings in Mainland China?

Dalai Lama named US ambassador to China.
