he thinks "Bleachbit" refers to actual Bleach and that the F-35 is literally invisible, so yeah I believe this is probably the case

It's widely accepted that the 1998 impeachment push halted the bipartisan work on - of all things - partially privatizing Social Security. https://t.co/tTEuxWGinf

Privatizing social security is the most evil idea.

btw the Senate could write its own rules, and I'm sure Mike Murphy isn't exaggerating by much.

He humiliates them daily. They’re blackmailed into being spineless supplicants because all their voters (inexplicably) love Trump.

Wooooooow @ that Trump clip. He's finally just...all the way gone, huh.

Those who are retiring could theoretically be like "Whatcha gonna do? Primary me?" and vote their conscience.

A nice fantasy. It would give me good cheer if it happens even once.

Instant Carmax (Ye Mad Puffin), Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:18 (four years ago) link

as far as i'm concerned, he's not the president of the united states anymore.

is the "Okay everybody, thanks a lot, hope you enjoyed it" button that trumpity puts on the end of his lil' press talks a new development? it just ups the absurdity factor so much.

The great tragicomedy of Trump's presidency is that if he was willing/able to be a little flexible, to try and learn the ropes just a smidge, to surround himself with competent advisors, and I mean just to exert the most minute amount of effort imaginable, he could have really gotten some sinister-ass shit done. But instead he's a dumbfuck who insists on shooting himself in the dick and complaining about how unfair it is that he keeps getting shot in the dick.

Whistleblower complaint being delivered to Senate this afternoon.

Note to those in close physical proximity to the president: now might be a good time to introduce him to the bottle.

Welcome To My Lifemare (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:28 (four years ago) link

He'd probably just stick his dick in the bottle.

It would be funny to show up to, like, one of my local spots to grab a beer with Trump as a guest. So l, if you’re listening Trump, open invitation

treeship., Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:36 (four years ago) link

He probably wouldn’t be well received

This feels somewhat surreal, like Capone getting brought down for tax evasion instead of the worse crimes committed.

Just wait until he passes out after a beer and a half and then have someone give him a full-sized tat of Hillary's face on his own face. Classic night out.
