"I voted for Trump because he assuaged my sexist resentment from living in a family with some of the most famous women in the world." - Kanye West
his social interactions are much more on the autistic side of things for me. he could be both for all we know, but "bipolar" is one of the most abused misdiagnoses out there.
He’s the perfect example of a maniac depressed. Which is pretty pathetic that his wife and family base let him just roll with this hullshiy constantly.
I know and I have seen a lot of those flavors. You might be right but I haven’t seen anything like that.
Im tired of rationale of "Kayne is supporting Trump, wow he's mentally ill. Somebody needs to help him". No, he's just a selfish asshole.
Kenya: “if he don’t look good, we don’t look good” Trump: “It’s true” that’s some Vidal Sassoon shit footage made me uncomfortable
*he's also mentally ill. Source: dude, listen to him talk for 15 seconds. That's not an excuse for his support of Trump, of course, which is, I guess your point. "well, yeah, but he's just got a health condition" is no more an excuse than a guy who gets hammered and runs over a pedestrian "yeah but he's an alcoholic so..."
I 100% agree. It's not like he's going to take a prozac and snap out of it and say "holy shit guys, I was a Trump supporter?!?". The dude has been a shithead for nearly a decade now and has a god-like view of himself. His narcissistic personality disorder is compounded by his diehards viewing him in the same light.
Susan Collins Gets Six Figure Dark Money Payback For Kavanaugh"Yes" Vote. But It's Not A "Bribe". Republicans like Collins always accuse their opponents of their own crimes and misdeeds. So when Collins called the crowdraising fund dedicated to ousting her for voting “yes” on Kavanaugh an attempt to bribe her sorry ass, we can only suppose it’s because the amount was simply too small to take seriously. She’d apparently already accepted a bribe from some dark money group that was much more lucrative. Collins calls crowdfunding to get her to oppose Kavanaugh a 'bribe' Spoiler Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) says she is not swayed by crowdfunding aimed at encouraging her to oppose Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, comparing the effort to a "bribe." "I consider this quid pro quo fundraising to be the equivalent of an attempt to bribe me to vote against Judge Kavanaugh," Collins told conservative news outlet Newsmax. thehill.com/... Susan Collins Gets ‘Six Figure’ Payback From Dark Money Group After Voting ‘Yes’ On Kavanaugh A “dark money” group that spent millions promoting Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation effort announced on Tuesday that it’s rewarding Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) with a new “six-figure TV and digital ad campaign” in support of her re-election after she voted for Kavanaugh’s confirmation. The group, Judicial Crisis Network, issued a press release expressing its gratitude to Collins for her “yes” vote. “Thank you Susan Collins for thoughtfully reviewing Judge Kavanaugh’s judicial record and weighing the evidence, and for being a reasonable voice during this incredibly divisive time,” Carrie Severino, the group’s chief counsel and policy director, said. Judicial Crisis Network was one of several well-funded dark money groups to support the accused sexual assaulter’s nomination. This raises a serious question: Did Collins accept a bribe in exchange for her vote? snip politicaldig.com/... dk
I’m fucking dying. Did we already know Papa Vlad gave him a miniature World Cup trophy? We didn’t even qualify.
I'm really tired of the "We should feel bad for Kanye because he has mental illness" bullshit that folks like Glenn Greenwald try to put out there. Kanye doesn't actually want help for his issues and the folks that use him as a political tool don't want to see him receive help.

Facebook is removing hundreds of American accounts spamming political misinformation By Colin Lecher@colinlecher Oct 11, 2018, 2:29pm EDT Share Spoiler Facebook is taking down hundreds of United States-based accounts and pages, many of which spread political misinformation, for breaking the company’s terms against “inauthentic” content and spam. The company said in a blog post that 559 pages and 251 accounts would be removed. While the accounts used “sensational political content,” Facebook did not say that was the reason for the purge. Instead, the accounts and pages will be taken down after they had “consistently broken” the company’s rules against gaming its platform. Facebook noted that many used strategies like posting on fake or multiple accounts to generate traffic, or to inflate their popularity. 559 pages and 251 accounts Still, Facebook noted the proximity to the US midterm elections, and said that networks like the ones it removed today are “increasingly” promoting political content that is “often indistinguishable from legitimate political debate.” The company said this was the reason it has turned to “behavior” instead of “content” when searching for bad actors. The removal included accounts like Right Wing News, which The New York Times reports posted false stories about Christine Blasey Ford following her testimony at the Brett Kavanaugh hearings. “As we get better at uncovering this kind of abuse, the people behind it — whether economically or politically motivated — will change their tactics to evade detection,” Facebook said in its post. “It’s why we continue to invest heavily, including in better technology, to prevent this kind of misuse. Because people will only share on Facebook if they feel safe and trust the connections they make here.”[/spoiler
Called Tritch's office and asked how I could help. I'm sure Carson, Thornton and Donnelly offices would all love the help too.
Kanye West’s expletive-laden Oval Office rant leaves President Trump speechless salon.com/2018/1... Kanye West’s expletive-laden Oval Office rant leaves President Trump speechless There was also that incredibly awkward hug Spoiler Matthew Rozsa October 11, 2018 6:27pm (UTC) Whatever mental illness Kanye West has — whether bipolar disorder, with which he claims he was misdiagnosed, or something else entirely — was on full, raw display Thursday afternoon in the Oval Office. As Trump sat behind the Oval Office desk looking palpably uncomfortable, West awkwardly pirouetted from one subject to another. In theory, many topics touched on things that Trump should have supported, but the best Trump could muster up after West had finished was a half-hearted, "I'll tell you what, that was pretty impressive. That was quite something." In other words, West left Trump speechless. And that's really quite something. And what did West discuss? It's almost beside the point, at least in terms of its political content, but can be depressingly instructive as a look at how an unraveling mind will jump from non sequitur to non sequitur thanks to logical connections that only it is capable of discerning. During his nearly 10 minute rant, West discussed: (1) why we should abolish the 13th amendment because it is a "trap door," (2) how he was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder but he now believes he merely had sleep deprivation, (3) his admiration for Trump's trade policies, (4) a plane that West believes Trump should be flying as the new Air Force One. There was also that incredibly awkward hug, with West proclaiming his love for Trump and the president awkwardly insisting that he didn't want to put West "in that position." Let's pause for a moment to look at what West said about his so-called sleep deprivation, and bipolar disorder misdiagnosis, in its entirety. "What I think is we don’t need sentences, we need pardons. We need to talk to people. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, I was connected with a neuropsychologist that works with the athletes in the NBA and the NFL. And he looked at my brain," West told Trump. He later boasted about his intelligence, claiming that it was in "98th percentile IQ test" and insisted that "I actually wasn't bipolar, I had sleep deprivation which can cause dementia, 10 to 20 years from now when I wouldn’t even remember my son’s name." What's intriguing here is how West ostensibly started off by talking about prison reform, an issue on which he and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner have hoped to push the president to the left (and even got Trump to say that he would overrule Attorney General Jeff Sessions on fighting for African American rights there if necessary). Yet instead of describing the plight of African Americans who have been wrongfully incarcerated or discussing racial disparities in sentencing, West made a bizarre effort to connect prison reform with his own supposed misdiagnosis. Taking things one step further, West became defensive about his intelligence, seeming to imply that someone with bipolar disorder is mentally weak. What Americans saw, in short, was a man suffering from a mental illness who — in the midst of an incoherent rant that was most likely connected to that illness, and which left the traditionally garrulous president in stunned silence — accidentally admitted that he would find a mental illness diagnosis embarrassing. The entire spectacle miraculously managed to render Donald Trump speechless.
