Twenty-three percent of Democrats think so is itself concerning. That number should be single digits in a normal year.

Do red hats really believe passing a cognitive test apparently designed to diagnose senility is a major flex?

Sadly, too many red hats I know personally believe whatever Don tells them.

He's the only one who tells the truth.  He was right about everything.

prep on the pool image too much to believe Trump did it himself, which means it's even weirder that he has some aide working late with him just to create troll fodder.

Not that it changes his point, but that gas station is near the airport is notorious for being $1 more than nearby stations.

 

As is BP. They are always the most expensive.

Oh, that's got to be the one and only job held by dozens of people in that regime.

In a lot of places BP runs a loyalty program and discounts their list price to the same as the competition for card holders. I guess the theory is that non-regular customers are willing to pay more because maybe they are refueling at need? But that seems dumb when there is a station across the street at a dime less, which is the situation for at least a couple of the A^2 BPs. The corporate programming must tell them it works overall, but seems like a tough deal for those stations where that competitor is right across the street.

Brought to you by Project 2025, which our disgusting ethically challenged liar of a President swore he never heard of.
The damn playbook that is a checklist determined to send every woman spiraling back to the “good old days”. 

If you have a wife, a daughter, a granddaughter, a niece that you love, you need to be fighting like hell for her. It feels like we’ve been condemned to death.

Let's not forget about the online rape academy, where men are sharing how to drug their wives and rape them without being caught.

Sadly, Sue, I really think that we women are mostly on our own. I'm beginning to think that the poem that ends 'and then one day they came for me....' should have a line in which they come for the women.

It becomes more distressing every day. I honestly can’t recall when I’ve been this angry on a daily basis. It’s not good for my health - mental and physical- and yet I can’t help but feel such utter despair some days.

I really do believe there's a reckoning of some kind coming. We can debate whether it's sufficient or good enough because it may be more about material conditions (ie. Gas prices) versus issues like abortion or immigration, but people are angry and there will be a response politically

Having said all that, what I despair about is that all of this stuff is happening, and he says and does all the stuff that he does, and people who know better in elite circles, whether it be the media or in business or what have you... They see everything we all see, but they downplay it or turn away and act like it's NBD or "politics as usual"

It's really been a blackpill for me to see how much Trump has done to alienate a large majority of the American public, only to see elite circles try to downplay it all. It's enough to make me think they're fine with all this BS

The NYT (of all people) did a podcast interview with Tucker Carlson. It was interesting, one of his biggest complaints was exactly how the media was normalizing what this admin was doing  - in his case his concern was over the normalization of what he considers an immoral murderous foreign policy and all the happy talk about killing innocent people, but his complaint about the oligarchy keeping everyone distracted with issues that are fundamentally unimportant while ignoring the things that actually affect the lives of everyday Americans could have come from any progressive, and he even said as much.

Carlson: “I specifically ordered the white nationalism and this inept waiter keeps bringing military adventurism to the table instead.”

"CNN confirmed" it, but they don't have anything about it on their main page?

I'm curious-does he consider things like the Epstein files and talk of the online rape academy distractions? Sounds like the ultimate example of the tangled web we weave when we try to deceive.
