Yeah, that's my feeling. People think Trump dropped unemployment by 10 points, when in fact he dropped it by slightly over 1 point. He inherited a booming economy, and then propped it up with the usual Republican tools - tax cuts for rich fuckwads (with the resultant huge deficits) and low interest rates. He's given far more credit than he deserves for the economy.
Then you've got Democrats promising a huge change in the economy, when not that many people want huge change. Most of us just want to get back to having a president who doesn't shit post on Twitter, and who obeys the law, and isn't a fascist and a racist. All we had to do was run a normal candidate, and promise to make prescriptions more affordable, and we could have kicked Trump's ass. At this point I'm just hoping we hang on to the House.
A friend in an open marriage lamented years of lost opportunities with me because she didn't realize we also had an open marriage. Surprising how often that doesn't come up in casual conversation.
She wished there was a button or something to signify these things.
Peter Jackson related the story of Christopher Lee correcting him when he wanted Saruman to suck in a great breath after Wormtongue stabbed him in the back. Lee explained that the proper reaction would be an exhalation with a grunt.
A bit of on-the-job experience from his time in the OSS in WWII.
Damn, we need a secret handshake or something.
Saved for future use.
Some of us are, sadly some are not.

I sense an IgNobel Prize in their future!
He favors smaller tax cuts for the rich than Trump?
Damn, I would like to shake his hand.
Yeah, but did he get someone else's purple heart out of it? Huh? Trump did.
Me too. I have such respect for he and Michelle.
Those moose? I hear they bite.

I thought it was about heritage. Or something.

Clint can vote for whoever he damned well pleases. Dissing Donnie in public does more harm than his single vote in the voting booth.
Personally, I thought Harpo Marx was hysterical.
