Tell them them EVERYTHING! Morning Wonkers! Here's some of the stories Yr Wonkette will make you feel less sad about today! Obama held a brutal press conference where he spared no one from criticism. Among the highlights was a statement that Trump will have a "wake up call" upon taking office and receiving security briefings.
Them not sucking racist, flyover dick, remembering who actually voted for them, not feeding a bullshit narrative/normalizing bigotry and supporting those of us now actively resisting, maybe?
Reid's pretty centrist/establishment and HE isn't kissing cracker ass
AFAIK, they both have said to the extent Trump's interests coincide with theirs, they're willing to work with him (think infrastructure projects). That's pretty dick-sucking, you betcha.
It's the age-old problem with liberals: they're interested in actually, y'know, governing which never satisfies the purity trolls.
Hardly, again, as noted "a purity troll". I'd have no issue with seeking common ground----the problem is they also give him political capital and normalize him in the process. Additionally, they could do so without perpetuating the fully debunked media narrative of "economic anxiety" (which is, actually, self-pitying xenophobia) or excusing the actions of either racists or people who ignored racism, which makes them also racists.
It's fascinating to me that neither of them have ANYTHING to say in support of those of us now resisting, or his incredibly racist/conflict of interest appointments, etc. No, they'll kiss rust-belt butt (when those aren't the people who they're supposed to be representing) and give cover under something that's never gonna happen, anyway.
Interestingly, we've already seen others point out all that's wrong with his agenda, while still admitting areas they can find agreement.
Lastly, again, neither is part of the Democratic Party leadership nor now speaking for the bulk of the base (though that IS who elected them). Again, she's a junior senator from a mediumish state, he isn't even an actual Dem from a tiny one. Neither gets to tell me to suck cracker dick and neither represents myself, my interests nor particularly my party.
Awe!

Jesus. When Sanders and Warren aren't pure enough for you, who exactly clears the fucking bar? Jill Fucking Stein?
Who the fuck cares?
Hurr hurr boob jokes. Please review the rules, especially #5. This stuff gets on the moderator's nerves, and you'll want to avoid that.

Very strongly agree. This is a time of crisis and we need to be better.

Why do the Trump kids need their own security clearances? Can't they reuse and share Sasha's and Malia's?
So basically our brand new president elect shouldn't be able to get a security clearance for himself, much less his kids.

Yeah. Misogyny doesn't really do it for me either.

Obviously it IS how this works from here on outOh, and we can't have nice things either.
