Seriously. I have this knot of pain in the middle of my chest. Especially today. I can't bear it. We have to really think about how we can rise up against this.

This, this is one article that pisses me off so bad I almosf can't respond. Im just going to say that the people above who claimed Republicans use logic and such is a damn idiot who votes against there own interest. They believe Trump when he spews the fucking bullshit. Trump doesn't believe in scientific facts, for example him denying Climate Change is real. These idiot, worthless, whiny ass pieces of shit can write their bullshit articles but all these articles just light a fire in us, liberals! Keep up your bullshit, not factual opinion pieces and just wait until 2018. By 2018 Trump and his horrible republicans in Congress will most likely have destroyed all things in government that helps the 95% of Americans that aren't rich. Some of the people who voted Trump believes one day they will be billionaires (even though they are uneducated idiots who work at McDonalds and manage to fuck up that job) so they support the fact Trump and his immoral worthless idiots in Congress makes sure OUR government works ONLY for the top 10% of the country. People are stupid.I honestly feel like I'm living in an alternate universe! It's hard for me to admit to myself our country voted for a flawed Trump. And why the fuck did Paul Ryan get re-elected. What is wrong with his supporters? Voting against their own interests and Ryan is so totally bought by the rich it's pathetic! How can all Americans know Ryan is a puppet for the rich but his constituents can't see that. Living in today's reality is hard to swallow. I still cannot believe our current president colluded with Russia to steal the election from a woman who is so competent it's sad. We KNOW the Russians worked with Wilileaks, made up articles of fake news, and it's becoming so obvious Trump is a puppet for Putin it's nuts.

Exactly! The irony and hypocritical supporters of The Donald are ignorant people. We will NOT be able to change their minds about Trump because they are really brainwashed by his Twitter feed and when he speaks on the TV's making people like us scream and holler and hit our TV's. We have to remember This, (I can't remember who said this) you shouldn't argue with stupid people because those watching can't see who is the stupid prick.

I wouldn't put it past these fuckers that have the R label to all the sudden realize car insurance works basically the same way as health insurance. Next thing you know the ignorant Trumpkins will be hollering about paying car insurance because a poor man may be able to get his truck fixed. If we allowed these uneducated, immoral pieces of shit to stay in charge for 4 years they would destroy out country. They would work to pass laws that screw the poor and those laws would make the cash flow to the rich a continuing factor. We would be living with a caste system that makes sure "those" people never get ahead.I despise Trump, more than I can express, and his Republican supporters in Congress make me sick! And honestly I'm scared shitless! We are watching the downfall of our country as we know it. Hopefully his cult will observe all the damage inflicted by the republicans and flip from red to blue. I know Trump's cult like followers are too brainwashed and too filled with hate for people who look different from them to flip blue. I honestly think Trump paid a person to hypnotize his supporters at his rallies. That's the only thing that explains why people voted for a truly ignorant, misogynistic, xenophobic, racist who believes Alex Jones as he spews harmful and hateful conspiracy theories. It's beyond my belief that so many people voted Trump knowing he's a dumb ass. It must of been that they are hypnotized to love an unloveable sociopath. Thanks to all who voted Trump. Here's a fuck you for voting Trump. Thanks to them for ruining the progress our country made under a real President Obama. Trump supporters are all assholes and we won't change their minds.

Thank you for ranting, Shelli Kae, because I wanted to as well, but I am tired and ready for PBS and bed. (This, I suppose, is logic, which we liberal elitists are not supposed to possess. Which makes about as much sense as all those fragile white folk in red states voting for a corrupt businessman who cares nothing for their interests.) Vive la France, et bonne nuit, Wonkettes.

I had a Lhasa Apso whose crescendo growl reminded me of the ascending "oh oh oh' in the song.

I love how you're an elitist if you're rich and want taxes to go for healthcare for everyone. But if you want to get rid of near-universal care just to further line your own pockets as a rich person then you're smart and logical. Also I hate fucking wingnuts and I'd be sad if Charles lived up to his last name falling down a flight of concrete stairs....that would terrible. Very sad.
