His great policy idea is "let me ask other people what to do, and ignore that they might actually believe what they say and overwhelm them with my charisma".

Also, when asked to explain how the intelligence community's comments were "mischaracterised" flails and merely repeats the accusation.

Huh, real quiet here. Taking the day off and watching the American Crime Story Versacci killing with my cofffe, on the episode where Cunan takes his freind captive. I had to go to forums to make sure he did not hurt the dog before I watched the rest of the episode. Because hurting the dog is too much for me. Oh, and Corey Booker announced he was running, surprising no one. So that is my morning, that and monitoring my work email.

I stumbled in here last night. This is the mysterious “phantom thread”. If you read this article on a desktop you link to the real non-comments. People below have links to it.

Or you can just stay here in the twilight zone and see the wonkers who stumbled into this universe and never found their way out again.

Ah, that explains it. Refreshed my tablet and saw a bunch of comments. I thought, where the hell did these come from? Mystery solved, thanks.

I might believe it if Schultz shows me that he can breakdance.

So this is the place insufferable douchbags go to die. I'm in Hell!

I think we're trapped in a phantom thread.

I totally love Corey Booker but New Jersey is a little too close to Queens for my taste. Best let the PTSD subside a bit before we go with another tri-state candidate. Just my opinion.

What's your beef with Queens, if I may ask?

I assume Trump.

I think Corey Booker is fine looking.* I acknowledge I’ve only heard a few interviews with him, and he sounds articulate and has a great origin story. The “I am Spartacus” thing was silly. I’d rather Klobucher, Harris, or Warren but I’d vote for a lampshade over Trump.

*not grounds for electing him, but fine!

OP is probably not thinking AOC.

Well I can only hope most people understand that he's an exceptionally rare kind of asshole and not representative of wherever he was born. Queens had nothing to do with that abomination.
