She did this quickly and overall has been basically fine through this process.

The concession was the big surprise to me. I don’t know anything about her but I assumed she’d drag it into the courts, which was to my understanding, the only path to a ‘recount’ in Mississippi

The senate confirms cabinet positions.

You’d think Don John would want this senate to confirm his pick rather than the incoming one…

To cash the check the GOP AIPAC gave her?

FTFY

Ok but he has the charisma of a soggy gym sock. I don’t personally understand Trump’s charisma but I can’t deny it exists.

I do t think the Make America a Soggy Gym Sock thing is going to get very far.

Like histrionically? Or at the realization of how pathetic her life is?

Let me know when he floats face down in the reflecting pool

You’re gonna be really sad when you miss that headline…

Is it the platform that makes the difference for you?

I live in a contested state and voted for the democratic socialist candidate in the primary but I will, of course, vote for the mainstream dem in the general.

As a counterpoint, my uncle lives in a blue state and voted for a third party candidate in that last presidential election. My mom has basically gone no-contact with him over it. I think she’s just about equally as angry that I didn’t vote for the mainstream candidate in the primary but gives me a bit of a pass because I’m her son?

I think you make a good point about Tom having a platform that I hadn’t considered before. Did he use his platform to encourage people not to vote for her?

I hate this title - it’s a bit misleading with respect to the point he’s making.

Sen. John Kennedy said Sunday that President Donald Trump “can go from zero to a-hole in about three seconds,”

I’d argue both are persistent states…

EOs only have power over the Executive Branch. The president is essentially the CEO of the executive branch and EOs dictate how that branch should run.

Yes. And a person who was good at their job of asking questions would ask good questions.

You are terrible at your job.

A conspiracy so vast there is no evidence it even happened.
