The chance of hearing anything new from Trump is pretty low; there will be boasting and bigotry galore, of course, but I’m interested to see if he’s going to double down on his Birther criticism of Ted Cruz tonight in Burlington, Vermont.
The bar is now below ground…

I was more amazed by the other tweet you posted at the bottom of the last thread:
Undecided voters are told they face arrest at the Burlington Trump rally. Welcome to the future Merica
That is so wrong.

Maybe they can find a Mexican or somebody that looks Mexican or Muslim and beat him up. What a totally reprehensible toad Donald Trump is. No sound needed to know that. Fuck off. Just fuck off.
“We don’t need no information…all in all it’s just another…dick talking ‘wall’.”
TRUMP!: “Who’s gonna pay for the wall?”
Wingnuts: MEXICO!!!!
You know, I don’t think I will listen, live or otherwise. I just spent 3 hours on a little electrical project (new ceiling light and dimmer) that should have taken about an hour. I’m not in a mood to waste any more time. (Old light not interested in being removed, new light’s mounting plate didn’t fit on the old electrical box properly. Dimmer switch installation just a general pain in my ass.)
So instead of listening, I’ll let all the other Lizards fill me in on the highlights of derp.
OT: good news though…
67% of Americans, including most Republicans, say they favor Obama’s gun executive actions. Per new @CNN poll.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but your insurance company will pay the bill before the deductible is paid, right? You can pay the deductible back?
I tried listening again for about 5 seconds. Nope, nope, nope. Fuck this shit.
He’s not in this to win it. He’s not stupid, he has to know that the voters he needs are not voting for this shit.
lololol. I’ll sign an executive order getting rid of Obama’s executive orders.
What these rallies need is a touch of carnival to channel the violence, like a giant inflatable racist stereotype “Mexican” doll to bounce around the audience while he’s speaking. I’m picturing a double-life-sized guy with a mustache and a sombrero just being bounced through the air and kicked and punched in the foreground while he barks.

re: #19 Kid A
“Obamacare, we’re gonna terminate it.”
The GOP tried that today. They’re going to get their response in the form of nicely wrapped veto pens when the President issues his veto.
Oh, and the cost to repeal Obamacare? That’d add $137 billion dollars a year, every year through 2025 - or roughly $1.37 trillion dollars to the debt (based on the CBO finding last year of what repealing Obamacare would do to the budget).
Any GOP claim that they’d save the nation money with repealing Obamacare is pure unadulterated BS.
They know it, but they don’t care because this is all about fundraising for right wing extremists. And to feed the right wing delusion that obstructionism is actually governing. Hint: It isn’t.
I know. Maybe the sombrero-beach-balls can come out at the end. “Punch that Mexican! Punch it! I call it Pedro! We’re going to make America great again! Punch Pedro! Yeah!”
Trump: “The one good thing about executive orders, the new president comes and just a signature and they’re gone. Boom.”
— Charles Johnson (@Green_Footballs) January 8, 2016
Only GOPers seem to believe that Mexico would fund the wall.
Then again, maybe Mexico would want a wall built to keep the crazy Americans out. /

Unfortunately, far too many people I’ve seen in my circles have fallen for the Cologne and Sweden cases the xenophobic asshats have been pimping, ostensible liberals included, and no amount of correction penetrates once it’s set in, just like every-fucking-thing else it seems like. I’ve seen formerly good people turn suddenly into the most xenophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-refugee panicked screamers along with the usual suspects, and these are “millenials”. The supposed generation that’s supposed to reverse the trend on racism and xenophobia in our population. Instead, it just seems to be spiking and exploding from where I’ve been seeing, and it makes me want to tear my hair out and weep uncontrollably.
This Trump rally sounds like the perfect microcosm of a campaign built on forcibly removing people who make his supporters unhappy from US.

Erik Wemple had the best takedown on the whole cameraman nonsense.
By agreements reached years ago, the pool head on camera that is serving ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX and NBC is required to stay on a well-composed, tight shot of the person speaking. It’s protective, mainly in case something happens to the most high-profile person in the building. Every net has other cameras responsible for getting wide shots of the venue…Having a network head on camera at your event signifies stature and Trump and his staffers should understand this by now. He created an ugly scene for absolutely no reason.
Methinks it’s time for the media to realize that they’re getting played and give The Donald the 10-ft long barb-wire-wrapped curare-tipped telephone pole with no lubricants he so desperately deserves.
