It’s a full-fledged theft of representative government in slow motion. We will soon all be ruled by poorly educated red state buffoons who are just rotten to their very core.

Women are not permitted to question or challenge Trump. They may, on the other hand, give him back rubs and set him up with underage girls

The problem is that this is in CNN and not Fox. It’s all just preaching to the choir. We’re not the people who need to hear this.

Imagine this in Russian on Russian state TV

The word for what Jesse Watters is describing here is un-American. A shredding of the constitution.

There nothing funny about it.

I know Tim Cook is just trying to protect his company but saying the president is a β€œwell endowed and quite generous lover” seems a bit too far

Redistricting to gain more seats is just β€œgaming the system.”

Everybody knows this.

Everybody understands that it’s wrong.

It defeats the purpose of having representation at all.

And yet the GOP and its voters are perfectly okay blatantly cheating if it helps them win.

This is not ok.

Things have not improved since Trump was elected king.

Economic outlook - worse.
Global relations - worse.
