“GREENVILLE, S.C. – Year two of the Trump presidency began here overnight much like year one had ended: With his alleged ex-mistress smashing people’s faces into her bare chest at a strip club between an airport and a cemetery.”
—Dan Zak, Washington Post
Mornin.
Got a bunch of things. Hedlines to click.
“ICE will not comment on the case and has held no hearings. A bond hearing may not come until February, and it is unlikely it will be granted, according to immigration law experts.”
If you want @TheDemocrats to have power, then VOTE THEM INTO POWER.
EVERYTHING that’s playing out was predictable (and was predicted by me and others) when Trump was put in office and the GOP gained the majority in BOTH houses of Congress on 11/9/2016.

Co-signed and fucking underlined.
2016 should have been a wake-up call that you cannot just withdraw from politics and you certainly can’t just bail when you don’t have the possibility of a perfect outcome.
We have to stay in the fight and further we need to cut every piece of dead weight. That’s protest voters, that’s smug ‘two sides of the same coin’ nonvoter idiots, that’s everyone that isn’t willing to do the work and push.
This ^ is the #TrumpEffect and it is absolutely counter to what our country is supposed to be about. This is why Trump supporters won’t be redeemed. Ever.
Repeat after me:
The. Entire. Point. Of. This. Deal. Is. That. Senate. Democrats. Expect. McConnell. To. Break. His. Word.

This is chess, not checkers.
And a traitor at that.
“On Monday, Trump approved duties of as much as 30 percent on solar equipment made abroad, a move that threatens to handicap a $28 billion industry that relies on parts made abroad for 80 percent of its supply. Just the mere threat of tariffs has shaken solar developers in recent months, with some hoarding panels and others stalling projects in anticipation of higher costs. The Solar Energy Industries Association has projected 23,000 job losses this year in a sector that employed 260,000.”

What a piece of shit.
Fuck. Every. Single. Trump. Voter.
Though I really hope some of the Trumpists that own solar companies will get burnt by this.
Things I’ve learned from a year spent arguing with Trump-supporting morons online: There are a substantial number of fragile MRA dudes out there who have no game at all so they bought Teslas thinking that was some sort of finish line and going forward in life they could just play it like a Wild Card in conversation and people would instantly give a shit in spite of how little sense that doesn’t even *attempt* to make.

Plus,
your Trump supporting, flag waving, pretend-patriot moron friends are doing Putin’s groundwork for him:
“At this point, the only reason left to support this President, is that he reflects your hateful heart; he shares your contempt of people of color, your hostility toward outsiders, your ignorant bigotry, your feeling of supremacy.”
