He was getting the exact education conservatives say they want more of! Studying a technical trade instead of any of the humanities. God are they morons.

NATO's commitment isn't to Trump's concept of winning, it's to regional stability. Which takes way more nuance to sustain than he's capable of.

Kirk's position on MLK was that he was "not a good person" and that he turned Black America into a bunch of lazy, freeloading welfare cases in crime-infested hellhole cities. But sure, let's put them next to each other.

True. I guess I hoped the school had learned some lessons and evolved since then. But one thing the last few years has made clear is that hardly anyone has evolved on anything.

I can see them thinking they can ride "stopping the cuts this year" to victory, then stop them from going into effect after the midterms. Which, to be clear, I also think is galactically stupid, but Dems' strategic skills these days really seem to be that bad.

Kash was put there to tear the FBI down, and now the Trump admin is shocked when they actually need it to be a functional investigative agency. Dipshits.

Right? He wasn't even married to Melania yet. He could say "I sent a risque birthday card to my rich middle-aged bachelor friend who I used to party with. I had no idea this other stuff was going on." I don't think anyone would believe him about the second part, but it's not absurd.

And spare me any responses about how it doesn't matter or explaining to me that it's part of the fascist urge to create their own reality or whatever, I'm aware.
Gary Legum (@glegum.bsky.social)
Trump could say "Yes, I sent a birthday card to a friend, this was 2003, before I realized what he was doing and cut him out of my life." But as is typical with him, he has to deny everything to the point of logical absurdities and make himself and his lickspittles look more and more unhinged.

That second graf seems worded in a way that will allow them to blame some long-gone assistant for making and sending the card in Trump's name, so he can continue claiming he knew nothing about it.
