"Hilariously, Trump, a guy who allegedly used to keep a copy of Mein Kampf on his nightstand, then pivoted with zero irony into why Jews should vote for him more."
People keep saying that, but it is not true. It was a compilation of Hitlers speeches, not mein kampf.
Nearly everything Trump says is disqualifying by any rational standard. Fortunately for him (and unfortunately for everyone else on the planet), that must not be the standard that something like 46% of America's voters are working from.

One of literally hundreds of things that should be disqualifying even if he were perfect in every other way.
But America likes him better than a woman.
I am trying to have tope, but damn, America is a shitshow.
Not a fan of Sidney Blumenthal: he misread the room at an event trying to promote Hilary Clinton at which I sold books at a Brentwood enclave which was solidly Obama. I've never felt a room temperature drop 20 degrees in 15 minutes. However: didn't know the Trumps were ACTUAL NAZIS per: Blumental, so:
"Friedrich Trump, Trump’s grandfather, was deported from his native Bavaria as an undesirable and had his German citizenship revoked in 1905. Born in the town of Kallstadt in 1869, he dodged compulsory military service and emigrated to the United States in 1885. In and around Seattle and the Yukon, he owned restaurants and hotels that also did a brisk business as brothels. He returned to Germany a well-to-do man, married Elisabeth Christ, and took her to New York. But his wife did not like America and was homesick.
He returned to Kallstadt to settle, but the authorities investigated him and ruled he should be banished for dodging military service. He wrote the Prince of Bavaria a letter begging to stay. “Why should we be deported? This is very, very hard for a family.” His plea was rejected. He was expelled. Upon his return to New York, in October 1905, a son, named Fred, was born. The Trump family saga began.
"She wants to go into a communist party type of a system."

I've noticed that the lesser intellectual lights on the right use "communism" as a global term for anything they don't like, but more specifically, as anyone with more power than they have making them do something they don't particularly feel like doing.
Seat belts? Communism.
Masks? Communism.
Vaccines? EXTRA SUPER communism.
Companies price gouging? Communism.
Facebook fact checkers? Communism.
Capitalism? Communism.
Fascism? Communism.
If they're being made to do something they dislike only a LITTLE bit, it's socialism.
If something is ACTUAL socialism, but they benefit from it -- e.g., disaster relief -- that's not socialism, it's their tax dollars at work.
Along with everything else wrong with that statement, humans are unusual in the animal kingdom for our lack of genetic diversity. Scientists figure we had a near extinction event and are all descended from the same few people.
For an example of real genetic diversity, look at all the things it's been possible to breed from wolves.
"look at all the things it's been possible to breed from wolves."

We were out and about the other day, and a couple was walking their two dogs. One was about the size of a pony, and had enormous, slobbery hanging jowls. The other was MAYBE five or six pounds.
As we came alongside them, I gestured toward the smaller one and said, "Who's this? The DOG's dog?"
I wouldn’t engage in discussions about “good genes” when you are clearly suffering from several mutations yourself. Looking at you chinless atavist Hewitt and Mr Sharp As A Blunt Object PAFB.

Yes, that’s very different and much better. As a Jew I am wholly convinced.
Upfist for "Show the sun who's boss."
Speaking of the respected science of phrenology, I wonder what the misshapen head of Charlie Kirk tells us about Republicans.

Unfortunately, that's about the percentage of American voters who are also racist. Oops, I meant "economically anxious "!
Gene, Gene, the Farting Machine.
"governmentally?" Border crossers are murderers and some have murdered more than one person?
Somebody make it stop, like Jack Smith.
Can you imagine how tacky Chump Calipers would be?
A pair you could buy for $5 at any hobby shop, spray-painted gold and with "TRUMP" stamped on them, and priced at $350.

"Your price is going to be $100,000 dollars more now. ... First of all, you have to let the private sector do it."

Yeah, God knows the private sector hasn't price gouged the shit out of houses.

Ummmm. There were more than one. Humans as a species skated close to extinction then. Of course you go outside and trip over them everywhere now

The dog's dinner.
If it's older, it might be the boss of that slobbering beast.

Of course you'd say that- you have the brain-pan of a stagecoach tilter.
