So, want to expand a little on this, because it’s important (and probably because I am now in Day 4 of my third evacuation in 4 weeks, with a scary ass fire 2,5 miles from m front door). Donald Trump is an evil, racist, misogynistic narcissistic conman. But he has been absolutely transparent. He

I think I meant to type “raped”, and I assume I can include all of us in that. I’m not defending bad journalists (most on TV) or weak politicians. I am saying Trump is something different. It’s a delusion that better journalists would have prevented Trump. We the people got what we deserved On

Best possible outcome is Trump refuses to accept new rules and we have no more debates. Unlikely, both because Trump is behind and needs the at bats to catch up, and Trump is a narcissist who needs attention more than oxygen On Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 12:09 PM Adam Bowie wrote: > It sounds like

I specifically resist your last point. Yes the media is lazy and ratings driven; yes Democrats are weak and cowardly. Those are serious but baseline problems. Trump is something qualitatively new and toxic. We don’t blame intoxicated people for getting taped; we don’t blame journalists and other

It sounds like the Presidential Debate Commission is going to change the rules. 'The commission said Wednesday the debate “made clear that additional structure should be added to the format of the remaining debates to ensure a more orderly discussion of the issues.”'

Mad World is one of the first films I remember ever seeing in the theater. I have seen it a few times since. It was better when I was 4. Mermaid was on almost constant video loop when my girls were young. There was a time I could sing the songs word for word in my sleep, like a nail in my brain.
