The @GOP, when rarely confronted w/anti-Semitism of elected members

sheesh way to admit it

remember when the GOP ran actual Nazis for House seats last year

number of Dem Nazi candidates = 0

Judging from my 120 minutes of sustained arguing with rightist hordes on Twitter this morning, Dems are (a) the real racists (b) baby killers (c) anti-Semites.

it appears that there are no longer good people on both sides

the only ways in which the Right "cares" about racism/anti-semitism/any bigotry are 1) to use as a "I know you are but what am I!" political cudgel and 2) it super hurts their feelings to have ppl they loathe label them something they feel has been termed into a meaningless label. Like it's so obv when they pretend to give 2 shits about "the Blacks" (looky, we gave them all jobs! hey, got off the Dem Plantation!) or any other grp they themselves have marginalized. Fucking evil fucks ugh.

what if we just hire a seven-year-old to kick him in the shins every time he tries to talk

i would kick in money for this

One might even call it... a kickstarter

these are bastard moves by bastards

Denmark is a very special country with incredible people, but based on Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s comments, that she would have no interest in discussing the purchase of Greenland, I will be postponing our meeting scheduled in two weeks for another time....

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 20, 2019

....The Prime Minister was able to save a great deal of expense and effort for both the United States and Denmark by being so direct. I thank her for that and look forward to rescheduling sometime in the future!

I guess the bottom really is us getting nuked because damn wtf even

what even in the hell is that

This is a genius way for him to cancel everything.

literally scrambling for distracting attention-getters

Good luck USA.

"I told China we would cancel the tariffs if they gave us Taiwan, but they don't want to discuss it so I have cancelled the summit"

"I told Japan I would visit them if they sold me Mt. Fuji, but they said no, so I will not be visiting."

"I told Boris I would visit the UK if they sold me Stonehenge, but they said no, so I will stay here."

And so on.

is not chlorofluorocarbon gases in aerosol sprays and refrigerator coolant that decides to float up into the stratosphere and destroy the ozone layer, it's humans that decide to use those products. but yet, we just banned the fuck out of most CFCs and the problem was (largely) addressed

FP’d you for racism btw

Denmark is a very special country with incredible people

too true

beautiful letters tho

Asked about North Korea’s recent, repeated firing of short-range missiles, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said, “I wish that they would not.” https://t.co/BiUua5EVOS

what even in the hell is that

That is the President of the United States of America deciding not to leave the familiar safety of his cocoon if he can't get the lollipop he was hoping for.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said, “I wish that they would not.”

You can sense the waves of advanced 'Trump fatigue' rising off him.

[REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED]

It gets harder every day to not explicitly call for extralegal solutions to our ongoing national crisis.

So if refusing to sell him something is trump repelllent, would happen if the UK repossess his golf courses?

the guy who did perry's current during obama's first administration has a nobel prize for the "development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light"

perry's current *job

maybe if everyone just keeps telling trump no he’ll stay home

morning!

lol i saw Thurston Moore post the same Instagram thing yesterday. comments made it worthwhile.

“Thank you to Wayne Allyn Root for the very nice words. “President Trump is the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world...and the Jewish people in Israel love him....

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 21, 2019

....like he’s the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God...But American Jews don’t know him or like him. They don’t even know what they’re doing or saying anymore. It makes no sense! But that’s OK, if he keeps doing what he’s doing, he’s good for.....

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 21, 2019

.....all Jews, Blacks, Gays, everyone. And importantly, he’s good for everyone in America who wants a job.” Wow! @newsmax @foxandfriends @OANN

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 21, 2019

As we all know Jews are so down with the second coming

I heard nothing but negative comments about Trump in the midst of a hundred or so American Jews this weekend, so this lunatic conservative commentator may in fact be right about something!

Well this will get them on board no doubt

So I'm there, sun beats down upon my face like you wouldn't believe. The stars absolutely fill my dream, there's no room. And so many of these guys, big guys, they talk to me of days for which they sit and wait. But I really do think all will be revealed. https://t.co/aodDq3sKlG

My proposal to the politically correct Automobile Companies would lower the average price of a car to consumers by more than $3000, while at the same time making the cars substantially safer. Engines would run smoother. Very little impact on the environment! Foolish executives!

good news, leaded gas is coming back

Getcha sweaters jokes in asap

what if we just hire a seven-year-old to kick him in the shins every time he tries to talk

Or bring in the adult Kurt Russell to smack him about?

the politically correct Automobile Companies

I can't

VW= Very Woke

Yeah, this morning's NYT story about the auto companies seeing the financial sense in limiting fuel emissions was an eye-opener.

It's like he just walks around all day gumming a mouthful of magnetic poetry and everyone gathers around whatever random words happen to be suspended in the pendulous drool string hanging from his chin in a particular moment and says, hmm yes, very intersting, this is definitely the coherent utterance of a sentient creature, let us regard it as such.

My dog knocked over a box of Alpha Bits one time, it was the most profound soliloquy I ever encountered.

fucking bizarro world. I want off!

"Distractions" or not, every time we've hit maximum "Veep" (or "Onion") we go even further. It boggles the mind. It's like a humanoid Magic Eye run amuck.
