Support republicans, support racism.

Defeat republicans, defeat racism.

It’s that simple

BLACKLASH!

So...defeat racism by being...racist.

Okay, hypocritters.

Dopes.

BLACKLASH referred to the Obama voters who switched to Trump. Read the article, nitwit.

Peggy tends to be one-note in his posts.   As the article noted,  a wide array of sociological studies support the theory that racist and xenophobic attitudes were key in switching Obama votes to Trump votes.   As discussed here yesterday, "identity politics" became skewed from its original meaning and turned into a right wing dogwhistle.

Just for the sake of a break from extreme partisan scare stories, here is a Nobel prize winning economist on who actually supports Medicare....

(regarding the tweets, I can only say it's probably healthy for the mind to occasionally study the actual policy positions of both parties and their candidates, rather than try to figure out the moral character and political integrity of hundreds of millions of Americans by means of footage of lone lunatics acting out their mental health issues in the street....just a thought)

Russ Douthat is right, this week.  Warren let Trump troll her and get her to play the game his way.  If he is the 2020 GOP candidate, the Democrats definitely need a different frontrunner who might be able to reach some of the now-40% of Americans who are Independents.

Fuck a James Woods!

“James Woods is a giant, manic-depressive, cokehead baby whose evolution into a right-wing troll as a means of ascribing political reasons to his natural slide from cultural relevance is as transparent as his septum from doing so much fucking cocaine.”


“James Woods is a cocaine-fueled gasbag who acts as some sort of aggrieved proponent of moral certitude despite telling Obama supporters to ‘put down their crack pipe’ while gleefully celebrating the death of a man who said something similar to him—and who, lest we forget, at the age of 66, dated the 19-year-old daughter of a golfing buddy he’d known since she was 5 years old, then dumped her after she turned 26 and immediately took up with another 20-year-old, which suggests, at best, a deep emotional immaturity and a desperate need for validation on his part, and at worst, a knowingly predatory relationship with women who have clear psychological complexes about their own fathers...”

Or his Economics Degrees from Yale and M.I.T.  And since credentials obviously mean a lot to Red, he should probably ask to see his supply-side buddy Larry Kudlow's economics degree.

Absolutely.
If you haven’t noticed economists as a group are hardly non-partisan.
