Trump, July 2017: Tweet more

Ugh we're going to get rolled. Tillerson is a fucking incompetent lightweight.

Per @jonathanvswan, likely the only other people in Trump-Putin meeting will be Tillerson, Lavrov and translators https://t.co/i7Pk4kiRWc

Haha

christ on a fucking cracker, these lazy dipshits had YEARS to come up with something

The White House waited too long to book a hotel in Hamburg, forcing Trump to stay at the Senate guesthouse, while his staff sleeps at the US Consulate.

If only he had some pull in the hotel industry.

THE DEALMAKER

Tremble: http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/07/10/americas-future-is-texas

Nearly every state in America is Texas, with one or two Austins each.

That article has got a lot of neat info about Texas politics, but the title seems like it was chosen by someone who hadn't actually read it.

TBH I stopped reading it after 15 pages maybe, when I realized a), there was a whole lot more, and b), it was pretty much just an article about Texas politics.

p thin "admission" but given how tight-lipped he is this is probably indicative of ... something

Who could have predicted this would happen?

no one knew it was this complicated folks

They should just explain to everyone that once they get the supply going, the demand will follow. That's economics, folks.

GOP health bill is a mess because no one thought Trump would win

Republican leaders expected Hillary Clinton to become president, and that left them paralyzed about how to proceed when she didn’t.

If only they had SIX ENTIRE YEARS TO WORK SOMETHING OUT???

It's much easier to toss bricks when you are outside glass houses.

the other reason their bill is a mess is that there aren't actually any great ways to get more people health care that involve spending less money without the government getting involved. it really doesn't matter how much time they prepare a health care bill, that will always be the case.

Huh. Republicans creating a workable healthcare bill would be an act of self-annihilation.

Not sure it'd be any different with the current incarnation of the Democrats, either. Wonder why it hasn't happened yet. All the non-ghoul Americans are on their own, so what to do about that.

The New York Times and the Democrats are trying to build and secure their base of the well-to-do who have a philosophy pretty similar to the Republicans on this front. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/10/opinion/sunday/stop-pretending-youre-not-rich.html

At the very least, they see a threat's out there. And what's that threat? People demanding a humane quality of life. Ohohohohohoh, so horrible!

oh good I'm glad your opinions are finally here

Hey man, I've seen too much fucked up shit under both the Republicans and Democrats philosophies. I'd be a monster if I didn't speak out about it.

Meanwhile, for what it's worth, Illinois, with the help of both Democrats and Republicans (though of course mostly the former) overrode the disliked GOP gov's veto to pass its first budget in two years, I think the longest any state has ever gone with no budget. This came not long after Dems and Republicans overrode the disastrous Kansas GOP governor's budget veto, and after the disliked GOP governors of Maine and New Jersey lost their own budget battles, ending their respective shutdowns. Something's afoot. At the least, just saying no turns out to be a pretty shitty way to run a government.

Well, cool, I'm glad you've been able to marry your gay boyfriend and get Medicaid expansion under GOP presidents.

Lol

Alright, Democrats aren't as bad as Republicans in total, but that creates a dangerous situation since the only other alternative we've got are the Republicans. "You want some of this nice stuff? Well, you gotta take all our shit, too, fuckface."

I'm learning things today.

where's that stupid mind explosion gif

Got mine, fuck you. It's a sentiment shared by both Republicans and Democrats. Just different constituencies.

How long do you think that can last? It's a mindset that's not going to create a more humane society, just one with yet more tribes who fight each other with increasing violence.

"HURRRR all this unrest, this anger, this misery, where's that coming from?" I guess nowhere, according to you guys. Guess what exists doesn't, because the desire to pretend it doesn't. Whatever.

Iago Galdston was more fun iirc

It's because this isn't fun. Maybe it is for you. I just remember the elderly woman who was tossed to a hospital who got drugged to death because she was an inconvenience. Watching her mind and health decline, while Republicans beat their chest in euphoria, and Democrats say "hey, not me!" and cover themselves in piety.

Maybe you could teach me a thing or two about blood lust hidden in costume, Democrat style.

It's related because both Republicans and Democrats both hold fast the ideology of free market Capitalism, a hierarchy based on the "best use" of humanity decided top down. And that use is profit. The unprofitable must be eliminated. Nothing different b/t the two parties there, gay marriage or not. Luxury laid on bones.

Is this some kind of Carlin bit.

No, it's haunting shit I've seen that I can't stop thinking about.

Hey larry appleton.

I actually agree that there are inherently fucked up aspects of society that our political system is structurally unable to address, which has rendered us vulnerable to nihilism.

I don't think this justified the nihilism though.

What this is isn't nihilism. We've seen it before, it's just learned from experience.

Just imagine what you could learn from the experience of being launched into space.

It's an onion, it has many layers within layers, and will drive you to tears when you try to slice the whole goddamn thing open.
