    He heard about that Hawk Tuah girl getting famous and he figured he’d give it a shot and spit on that thang himself.

    Trump just made the right populist noises and voters elected him over whoever the Democratic Neoliberal Committee decided to stand up this time.

      I love and hate this gif because it illistrates so clearly what the problem is but our entire political system cannot begin to address it. Trump can sit there and fellatiate a microphone because our norms say there is nothing wrong with it. Our politics say, that is one of the most egregious acts someone can display in a political setting and it will surely result in a loss of support. One of these two things is wrong.

      I blame stupid fucking Americans.

      They chose facism over a candidate they weren’t enthusiastic about.

      Let America burn. It deserves it.

          Viewing politics as a spectator sport is certainly the fault of a misinformed, unenlightened electorate. The crappy candidates continue to pop up because that’s the best our corporate trash parties can do with political couch potatoes that are less interested in whether or not their neighbors suffer and die than about which walking cosmetic surgery mishap was a removed at brunch, or which bimbo was chosen on the bachelor.

          Trump himself is even a product of this couch potato culture and was well known before running for office for being the biggest, baddest boss of them all in a reality TV game show full of complete idiots pretending to run companies in front of cameras for the prize of a fictional job at a scam corporation.
