    In any case, it is a win for Trump aesthetically because he can say that he killed it. And the press will fawn over it.

    It's going to happening a lot over the next four years- taking credit for others' achievements and also blaming others for his policy failures. Only thing we can do is continue pressuring the press to do their jobs and continue pointing out his lies ourselves wherever possible.

    He's a PR/spin master. It only seems that way because of how good he and his people are at message manipulation.

    She's become much better in the last couple of years, to the point where I get the impression that she really is a moderate who did what she had to to fit in at Fox.

    But Santa still just IS white.

    I get this impression that it is less ideological and more to do with the predatory nature of management. But even so, she's still shitty. She's the moderate who feels your pain, but doesn't understand why "all lives matter" is fucking stupid.

    Remember when MSNBC fired Phil Donahue for opposing the Iraq war? Good times.

    Liberals have been trying to latch on to any conservative that has opposed Trump slightly, then tried to recast them as moderates. See: GWB

    "Hey, uh, I know he let black people die and suffer for five days, but he never would have disrespected the office of the presidency and he didn't even have authoritarian tendencies. Huh? What the fuck are Iraqis? We are talking about America, man."

    Andrew Cuomo is a fucking snake

    "Andrew Cuomo wants to be loved. He wants to run for president. He is also the embodiment of a morally bankrupt Democratic Party that has failed, at every juncture, to live up to any of the ideals it purports to hold dear. Andrew Cuomo is a snake. He should be allowed nowhere near the 2020 presidential election.


    Over the weekend, in the dead of night, Cuomo vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have required the state to fund legal services for the poor—a bill that the New York Civil Liberties Union called “the most important criminal justice reform legislation in memory.” The proposed legislation would have limited public defenders’ caseloads, allocated resources ensuring that defendants receive adequate representation, and shifted financial responsibility for providing legal services from counties to the state. These reforms, and others, were based on the result of a 2014 settlement in a lawsuit brought by the NYCLU."
