DK in the MM:
“It wasn’t that long ago that the most persistent challenge Republicans in public life presented to reporters, watchdogs, and the sanctity of the English language was disguising their unpopular, often cruel, and elaborately expensive policy preferences under layers of double talk, misdirection, and word play. With Trump it is all undisguised. Perhaps we can count that as small blessing.”
Yes, not sure if that is a blessing but as I wrote yesterday…it’s all lies now, all the time. Naked lies from every part of the R spectrum. Chump started it in 2015…and the Rs slowly have given up on the ‘disguising’ stuff to the point now where the lying just comes unfiltered from every R, top to bottom. We will see if a nation can fight for oxygen in such a smothering, suffocating blanket of lies…and if one party can subsist on lies, and lies alone.

Voted here in Texas and I’m hoping the reality based Texans (yes, they exist) will come out tomorrow as well and at least get rid of Ted Cruz.

First MM in two weeks, was on vacation and unplugged. Other than the simulated bean job (and BTW, it looks like he knows what he’s doing there), what did I miss? Reading headlines, one might think the fat fuck were actually going to win.

He mimed stroking and fellating a microphone on a rally stage in Milwaukee.
He was mimicking Lindsey Graham.
