What he didn’t do is act like a Russian asset. He didn’t steal government documents. He didn’t hawk food at the Resolute desk. He didn’t spend his time watching TV and bitching writing about how he had it worse than anyone especially Lincoln. He wasn’t impeached twice or call for the deportation of anyone with a brown skin.
There is much to loathe about Reagan, but to argue he was similar either shows INCREDIBLE naïveté or just plain ignorance of history.
This is a moronic take.
Stewart is also lying about Reagan: he wasn’t a man who was voted in because he was a criminal, a rapist, a sexist and stole sensitive government records. In fact, as bad as he was, he wasn’t even close to being as bad as Trump. No candidate has been as bad as Trump.
This idea this is normal is one based on delusion or unfounded optimism. It sure as fuck not based on history.
Stewart is gaslighting.
Reagan cut taxes for the rich and middle class. True. He also made the US a debtor nation.
Jon Stewart gets it wrong—surprise me 😑
“They didn’t do the woke thing. They acted like Republicans for the last four months. They wore camo hats and went to Cheney family reunions. Do you know how dangerous it is to wear a hunting hat around the Cheneys?”
Several things here:
1) Dissing supporters is a bad thing
2) A 30 year old reference makes you sound like Dennis Miller who is conservative and also out of touch
Republican “woke” means being kind.

The AP has called Democrat Mark Takano the winner in his reelection to U.S. House in California's 39th Congressional District. #APRaceCall at 9:08 p.m. EST.
The problem is that Sanders has a lot of anger towards the rich. I get that.
What I don’t get is him thinking he is one of us. He hasn’t been one of us for a VERY LONG time.
Raise your hand if you make $174,000. Hell, our combined salaries never came close to that and I’m a software engineer.
I’m really really tired if the rich pretending they know what the rest of us think.

60%? You know who said this? A company called The Lending Club. Where did they get their numbers? No fucking clue. They point to CNBC’s study which says 70%. However, it may come down to Survey Monkeys, an online survey company.
Sanders: "We are living in an economy today where people on top are doing phenomenally well while 60 percent of our people are living paycheck to paycheck."
That didn’t make Trump a better candidate or Harris a worse one.
Try again.

John Oliver FINALLY gets it: “I am mad for trans people who’ve been threatened. I’m disgusted at the prospect of mass deportation. I’m furious at Biden for not dropping out earlier and that the egos and inaction of two men older than credit cards themselves have led us to this point,”
Still arguing both sides are the same, eh John?
This is why Trump is President-Elect. You should have picked a side. Instead you decided to go with blaming Democrats.
Own it.

We’ve all thought this. It’s not really stunning.
“A former Kamala Harris adviser shocked a CNN panel on Sunday with a wild proposition: Joe Biden should resign the presidency and allow Kamala Harris to reign as the first woman president.”

Nope. Slate gets it wrong.
“ When faced with the options of chaos, greed, and anger or relative common sense—the kind wielded by a competent, qualified Black woman—voters overwhelmingly chose the former. It wasn’t the fascism-loving guy who spurred an insurrection whom they couldn’t trust. It was the Black woman.”
It was the Fourth Estate. When you have “news” corporations sane-washing a candidate? That’s not news, that’s propaganda.
They are still lying.

Work on my git client was going great until I started playing with Draw Things, a free client thingy that allows the download of AI’s and it wasted two whole days so far. And free.
It’s a lot of fun, doesn’t use a server farm and oh, free.
@DarkAlfred What are the three things most Americans are afraid of?
So, the "I don't know what project 2025 is" thing we all knew was bullshit is now the cornerstone of his plans for the next 4+ years.
He's going to piss off a large portion of the country if they try to enact prohibition again. Same with banning porn. (Fun fact, some researchers/students in Canada tried to get info to compare men who look at it to those that don't, couldn't find any men who hadn't.)
It's like they are actively looking at options to tank the economy...
“SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality,” he wrote in another post. “Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further.”
A billionaire thinks he’s in touch with the common man.
JFC if they weren’t going to destroy the US it would be funny.
