Trumpocalypse: No hanky/lanky

This accolades were brought up. Also put the abortion clinic bomber in jail, too.

 

They have sent dozens of mean worded letters

 

When are we gonna find out that Don Jr fell for a gag WWE storyline like his dad did?

 

Alabama conservatives:

 

Bragging about a negative approval rating

 

Average of all polls have him at -17.7 (or 38.7% approval).

Bragging about the one outlier poll, which is STILL negative

Link

 

I remember him bragging about that poll when it was at 50%

 

Nothing says commander in chief like tweet-bragging about approval ratings, nevermind how shitty the numbers are

 

To be fair, he won the election with only 46% of the votes.

 

No it’s worse, it’s like a p5 program getting 5 wins and bragging about going to a bowl game

 

It's like Spurrier giving Duke 1 vote in the initial poll every year

 

I have a feeling the Trump team and republicans will go on a major offensive today. They will pepper Sessions with Uranium One questions only. A Uranium One Special Counsel or Investigation will ensue. Look for some monkey business to take place with a legitimate candidate replacing Roy Moore. If they can convince Sessions it will be an ultimate win/win for them, because then a non-recused AG can appoint the counsel and Sessions can win in a write in vote. Not looking forward to it.

 

He's basically Butch Jones.

Claims champions if life after being awful

 

To be fair he won the election with three million fewer votes than his opponent

 

It's incredible how willing one party is to attack the foundations of our government. The gdamn president is directing the doj to investigate a political opponent and ultimately the previous administration

 

Never thought we'd have a Brand New reference in the Trump thread, yet here we are. In the "emo" scene (for lack of a better term), they're probably the best band of my generation, but I don't know if I can think of them the same again. I'd say it's a shame for the other three band members, but they have to be complicit in this.

 

Yeah but it feels like it did so that’s what matters.

 

siap

 

Capitalism is great, you vote with your dollar, so everyone gets the best outcome. No! Not like that!

 

Fuck Nate Silver. He’s so insanely disconnected from reality. Quickly moving into Mensch or hot tub guy territory.

 

He's the face of radical centrism and the pundit class.

 

Trump literally called the motherfucking Ghostbusters

 

So we can't like FiveThirtyEight anymore?

 

Silver’s take on this whole deal on the 538 pod was pretty bad. He’s normalizing the whole thing as typical team politics, not gross people defending grosser things.

 

I do. Don't even care. The information is interesting, it's useful, and it helps sort shit out without a wholly partisan lense.

I hate the purity test for everyone who comments on politics. "Nate Silver isn't perfect! Never again!"

 

Are those the same...

 

He's the editor in chief of FiveThirtyEight so, yes, to me they're very tightly coupled.

 

I think saying a pedophile is bad isn't team politics. Having that message out there for people to latch on to is damaging. Fuck Nate Silver for doing it.

 

I agree, but I can disagree with or really hate something someone did without just writing them off completely. I didn't listen to his pod, so I don't really know what was said. I find it hard to believe it's quite as bad as your first sentence, but then again Nate Silver is a (borderline?) autist...sooo........

 

The tweets are on this page

 

Yea, that tweet was pretty fucking dumb.

 

Ice burn

 

Ready to be infuriated

 

... polls that had...

 

who has a sessions stream for ryan mallett

 

When in doubt, PBS News Hour probably has it. Lovely stuff.

 

Conyers doesn’t sound great.

 

I think Conyers is about to die

 

Nobody cares about these stupid fucking speeches

 

Can't wait for Rs and Fox News to unironically accuse Lieu of tweeting things that are unbecoming of his office.
