Unlike the Democratic side, the Republican side in New Hampshire is actually somewhat close. Trump will actually be there so we'll see if he can stop this slide he's on.
I don't have the proper words yet to express the depths of fear & loathing I'm approaching this R debate with. I'll have to default to posting savage Ralph Steadman imagery, for now.
According to the wiki, NH was 98% white in 1990, 96% white in 2000 and 93.9% white in 2010, with a population of just over a million during those census years.
A nuke in a satellite? ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH? You'd need a Saturn 5 to loft a thing that size. The NK's don't have miniaturization tech to lift a nuke anyway,
China doesn't have total control over that lunatic hermit regime in NK. The North is pissing off China at least as much as they are us. China just doesn't want them to fall, so that a capitalist US client state would be on their border. I could see the Chinese telling Trump that, and laughing behind his back
The dynamic on stage tonight with Marco Rubio is a bit like at the poker table when everyone else is eager to play hands with a certain player because they know he’s on tilt.
My favorite conspiracy theory of the night was a person who claimed ABC stood for "All Barak Channel" and that the crowd was stacked with Clinton supporters.
Kasich: "We have the lowest number of state employees in 30 years."
He says that like it's a good thing. "Hell, in my state, we are firing people left and right from decent government jobs and forcing them to work at Wal-Mart."
Cruz : "Sending them in with their arms tied behind their back." Wow, that is exactly what the Republicans said about Viet Nam. See, he does read history!
Horseshit, Cruz. Since Gingrich in the 90's the R's have been relentlessly dismantling Congress and increasing the authority of the President (remember the Unitary Executive theory?).
OF COURSE our armed forces are smaller! Technology, you oaf. It doesn't take 200 sailors to hoist the sails on the Navy's newest Littoral Combat ship. For Fuck's sake.
Trump: "Every thing bad that is happening right now will disappear and go away quickly. Don't ask me how, it just will."
Christie: "Ham."
BTW, one of the funniest Wonket comments I've ever read was from hammypants. It was a caption contest after Hurricane Sandy and the picture was of Barack and Christie walking together, side by side. I believe the comment went a little something like this:
Obama: "What are you thinking about?"
Christie: "Ham."
To be fair, they were interviewing students that happened to get together to watch Republicans debate. Probably not a good sample if looking for smart people.
So Rubio and Trump looked worst tonight by a pretty significant margin. Considering those two were in the top two in the polls, who knows where New Hampshire might end up.
I heard no in-depth policy prescriptions, nothing at all about funding science, nothing on Obama's declared War on Cancer, little about our crumbling national infrastructure, an utter disregard of the actual national perspective that the Republican Party is wildly out of step on social issues, nothing about radical anarchists' armed occupation of the American people's land for their own personal profit, nothing at all about the grave civilizational threat of Anthropogenic CO2-caused Global Climate Change, nothing about the widespread proliferation of deadly military grade weaponry in the country, nothing at all about the deliberate poisoning of an American city with heavy metal tainted water, done purely for profit, no workable strategy for expanding the wealth of the middle class, little but homilies about "growing jobs", when automation and trade deals have permanently eliminated an entire class of well paying jobs, not much about an overly militarized civilian police that act like an occupying force, and nothing about an increasing intrusive surveillance state.
I did hear an unbelievably simplistic and dangerously naive military and foreign policy, though. A combination of ignorance and arrogance that exactly like the Bush Administration.
I wouldn't trust any of these people to park my car.
Fiorina has a better complaint but Gilmore is a meme candidate at this point.
at this point Gary stands a better chance than Jim
I'm choosing to read Gary as that snail from Spongebob.

Tired of this already. When's South Carolina?
February 20: Nevada Democrats, South Carolina Republicans
February 23: Nevada Republicans
February 27: South Carolina Democrats
Love your service-y comments, snow.
Thanks! I have no idea why Nevada and South Carolina are flipped for Democrats and Republicans, by the way, it makes no sense.
When does this turd start to emerge?
Not soon enough.

No shit. Dafuq?
I'd love to see what it looks like. It's worth more delegates than Iowa or New Hampshire and yet they're being completely ignored.
Gonna eat first. I'll catch up to y'all.
Good move. Dry heaves are the worst.
ABC calling Trump the frontrunner lol
Are there any not-white people in New Hampshire? Both the Democratic debate crowd and the Republican one seem even whiter than 96%.
NEVER MIND ABC FOUND TWO

The musical interlude is rather uninspired compared to MSNBC's
Um… There's only 8 days between Iowa and New Hampshire. Of course it's the only one between them.
Oh God, here they come…
Huh…the applause for The Donald was rather muted. I'll bet he's pissed…
Well, here we go.

MORE COWBELL
Oh, right… Ohio Governor John Kasich. Sorry.
And the mods get to the point and pick a Cruz – Trump fight for their first question…
DING. Is is over yet?
"Donald, do you have a temper?"
"Immigration ISIS stronger military!"
"The Problem! The Problem! I must have fruit!"
Cruz: Radical Islamic terrorism!!!
They barely clapped at the "everyone here is better than their side!" quote.
Trump: Cruz didn't answer your question so he's weak. I'm a winner!
Trump attacking someone for not answering a question? That's different.
I think I'm de-evolving.

One of Carson's volunteers died? wtf?
Yes, sadly. He was killed in a car accident a couple of weeks ago.. Braden Joplin, aged 25. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ben-carson-vo…
Oh wow, that's really sad. Seems weather-related too. Hope his family is doing all right.
REAGAN! Everyone punch through a wall.
"Dr Carson, please stop being nice and lash out against Canadian Anchor Boy!"
"Ronald Reagan!"
"Canadian Anchor Boy, why did you pull a dirty trick on your friend?"
"I apologized after the fact! Come on, man!!!"
I want to know why Carson had to go to Florida for clean shirts.
You try and get waited on in a men's clothing store in NH or IA as a black man. He'd probably still be trying to catch the eye of a clerk.
Yeah, but he has people for that. White people!
There are no clean shirts in Iowa. They all have butter stains on them.
He was cold
Wolf Blitzer! You listened to Wolf Blitzer?
Dr Carson: Cruz is lying again.
Why are all the questions trying to get people to fight each other? I'd still like to hear about some issues.
"College Boy, aren't you a little young for this?"
"I did things in the Senate! Let's vote for OHJB!"
Someone tell Rubio that Joe Biden isn't running.
Joe Biden could kick your ass Rubio.
I hope the media calls Marco Rubio out for raising his voice!
Christie: I think about problems.
You might start by thinking about the state of your party, Christie…
That GW Bridge closure problem, for instance…
Rubio: When I'm President, America will be nothing at all like the rest of the civilized world!
And that's a good thing.
REALLY, College Boy? You want to talk about fiscal responsibility with YOUR personal finance issues?
Christie: enough with the speeches, College Boy!
Christie coming out REALLY strong so far tonight.
Swan song.
Maybe, but if he keeps running all over Rubio there might be some hope.
Oh, this College Boy – Bridgegate Man throwdown is delicious!
"Marco and the Fat Man" (sorry)
Excellent.
OK, the mods have already lost all control…
D debate vs R debate: compare & contrast style and substance.

Jeb!: the warmakers think I'd be cool!
Is Kasich going to be involved here tonight?
"Senator Cruz, you also haven't accomplished anything. What makes you think you can handle North Korea?"
"Clinton's fault!!!"
Why are we blaming Hillary for something under Bill's administration? Seems kind of sexist to blame her for her husband's work.
Carpet bomb North Korea!
I like how the catastrophic GWB administration has slipped straight into the Memory Hole.
"Senator Cruz, what would you do about NK?"
"Fuck if I know!"
Wait, what are the people of New Hampshire called? New Hampshirites? New Hampshirians? Um, Hobbits?
"if it's a threat to land"
but it wasn't lol
College Boy is being suspiciously nice about agreeing with Cruz. Wonder if it's a trap?
A nuke in a satellite? ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH? You'd need a Saturn 5 to loft a thing that size. The NK's don't have miniaturization tech to lift a nuke anyway,
These people are dangerously deranged.
Kasich: let Japan take care of North Korea.
"The Donald, what will you do about North Korea?"
"Obama is incompetent!!!"
Bush literally just interrupted to say he'd bomb them harder.
Hey, Jeb: You know Who Else believed in preemptive war to solve a perceived threat?
BARACK OBAMA
BARACK OBAMA
BARACK OBAMA
BARACK OBAMA
BARACK OBAMA
BARACK OBAMA
College Boy: Obama hates Israel so North Korea is on the move!!!
Bush perpetuating the sailor lie again.
Jeb!: our sailors were in Iran and North Korea did something. Obama's fault!!!
China doesn't have total control over that lunatic hermit regime in NK. The North is pissing off China at least as much as they are us. China just doesn't want them to fall, so that a capitalist US client state would be on their border. I could see the Chinese telling Trump that, and laughing behind his back
And if Obama didn't pay ransom, you'd have been yelling at him for not caring about Americans. And Reagan did the same.
Bridgegate Man: we need to bust balls, not
keep our agreementspay ransom!Aaron Sharockman
North Korea was removed from the state sponsored terrorism list in 2008 by President George W. Bush.
I'm sorry, we've sent that information down the Memory Hole. Dismissed!
"Kasich, you said the voters don't want to throw all the brown skinned people out, but they do."
"We have to lock our doors!"

Kasich is the proof of how bad Republicans are. He's bad but looks sane next to the rest of them.

This makes me want a Raging Bitch. http://flyingdogbrewery.com/?beers=raging-bitch
Seriously. That happens to me a lot with Steadman's art these days. Fortunately they brew the stuff in Western Maryland now.
Canadian Anchor Baby: Clinton and W kicked the brown people out! It can TOO be done!!!
"College Boy, did you flip flop on immigration?"
"It wasn't going to pass anyway, so fuck it!"
Christie really wants to go after Rubio tonight, wow.
Bridgegate Man: Rubio cut and run!
Bridgegate Man: the NJ legislature didn't raise taxes because I was going to watch the Mets.
Christie's view of leadership, for some reason, is just to take your ball and go home.
"Christie to Democrats: Drop Dead"
Christie thinks Mary Katherine Ham looks delicious.
"Mmmmmm. Ham."
"The Donald, are you Bernie Sanders in drag?"
There are so many examples and I'm not going to mention any of them!
"They're out there. Trust me"
The Donald: no one will die on the street on my watch!
Trump called for helping the homeless. Not much positive response, weirdly.
Okay, not that weird at a GOP convention.
Unless you're in the middle of 5th Street.
No one dying in the street, huh? I guess they can die in their own beds, like Flint.
Canadian Anchor Baby said "socialized medicine" three times in fifteen seconds. Is that a record, or a lagging performance?
Watch Cruz try to repeal it and forget to repeal exactly one word. That word will be orange.
Oh, right Ted. Like there's no medical rationing in the US. Maybe not for you, with your Goldman-sachs Plated coverage.
"Dr Carson, what will you do about health care?"
"Dammit, I wanted the North Korea question!"
Who's this woman? She's sharp. How did the Republicans let her in?
Jesus, are we EVER going to get a commercial break?
"The Donald, why do you like it when the government seizes property so you can make money?"
"There would be no hospitals or schools or other good stuff without it!?
<img src="http://funkyimg.com/i/26rYr.png" />
I feel like this makes more sense now than when I posted it half an hour ago.
You know who else liked the seizure of private property for the benefit of the state?
Jeb!: The Donald evicted an old woman!
The Donald: be quiet!
Trump just got booed twice. He's tanking big time.
WOW, those boos for The Donald are LOUD!
"A Something Solution for a Temporary Tomorrow!"
Trump just lost big time there.
QUIET JEB
BOOOO! I hope the audience starts throwing eggs next.

The dynamic on stage tonight with Marco Rubio is a bit like at the poker table when everyone else is eager to play hands with a certain player because they know he’s on tilt.
Talking heads: Bridgegate Man got the Best of College Boy.
That's not a monkey. That's an orangutan. And not even a real orangutan. Why are your gifs so full of lies?!
Its' the Republican Debate! Please pay attention.
They're back!
<img src="http://www.motherjones.com/files/demon-sheep-630x354_0.jpg">
My favorite conspiracy theory of the night was a person who claimed ABC stood for "All Barak Channel" and that the crowd was stacked with Clinton supporters.
A recap of the debate so far:
<img src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ExJTu1f9wEA/Uh86YZKGj1I/AAAAAAAAF1E/LgNyHc2C56E/s1600/pool-jump.gif"/>
That pool looks like Marco Rubio's performance.
HA, I had a "Blooper" record (!) where an announcer tried to say "recap" for like 5 minutes with increasing levels of laughter.
"Kasich, how will you change conservatism?"
"When I was a kid Daddy lost his job, so I think we need jobs!"
"The Donald, are you really a conservative?"
"I want to conserve my money!"
"So, you're a Conservationist?"
"No…No!"
Hey
Just in time for a redefinition.
Oh. It's the same horseshit less the saying the hate outloud.
Front-runners getting booed, lower people getting cheered. What a weird night.
"Bridgegate Man says you don;t know how, Donald!"
"I will bring back ALL the jobs!"
Ooh, the Economy, now! Do you think they'll mention tax cuts?
That awkward moment that Donald Trump agrees with you on a thing
"Great Companies are leaving"
They're clearly not so great if they're screwing people over for money!
"Bridgegate man, Kasich has a surplus and you don't. Why is that?"
"Kasich doesn't know WTF! Things are finally getting better after years so I rock!"
More people working for government is not the same as more layers of government, Christie.
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/onrZfd1.gif">
Christie's plan is to beat up on Rubio. That may be smart considering they're competing for a lot of the same voters.
Kasich: I've done good things. How come no one is paying attention to me?
Kasich: "We have the lowest number of state employees in 30 years."
He says that like it's a good thing. "Hell, in my state, we are firing people left and right from decent government jobs and forcing them to work at Wal-Mart."
That sounds like Ohio!
And Wisconsin! And Michigan! And the great state of ALEC! Funny, that…
That's my favorite.
Dear Marco Rubio: You need to beat the Republicans first.
College Boy: Obama sucks!
Rubio: you say "redefine this country" like it's a bad thing.
"We want more millionaires" is going to be used in ads all over the place.
"Jeb!, people want to tax the rich."
"Make them rich too so no one wants to tax anyone!"
Dear 68% of America, you're stupid.
Love, Chris Christie.
Bridgegate Man: 68% of Americans are wrong. Yeah, that'll win over the voters, Chris…
Christie, the millionaires left because it was New Jersey!
I like how the top people are attacking Obama and the others are actually trying to win the nomination first.
Canadian Anchor Baby: bombs away!
"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
Jihadist University? What's the tuition?
"Canadian Anchor Baby, do you really want to kill civilians?"
"Fuck yeah!"
Yeah, because Overwhelming Air Power worked so well on the insurgency in Viet Nam.
Doesn't anyone study history any more?
Cruz wants to just bomb every country he doesn't like and then leave them in shambles. That will end well!
"College Boy, WTF would you do?"
"Well, first I need to answer a different question!"
Shouldn't have eaten. It's interfering with absorbtion of alcohol.
I can't deal……………..
Cruz : "Sending them in with their arms tied behind their back." Wow, that is exactly what the Republicans said about Viet Nam. See, he does read history!
Do you know who else thought their group wasn't radical enough?
"The Donald, you said you'll kill ISIS quickly. How?"
"Steal their oil and make a profit!"
How the fuck do you take oil?
Bomb the oil and take the oil? What?
Oh, FUCK THE ATMOSPHERE
"Jeb!, Libya sucks. What are you going to do to help it?"
"Jeb! can fix it!"

The crowd cheers illegal overseas dungeons with torture!
Because of course they did.
Jeb!: we need to get intelligence.
That's it, he'll never get another GOP vote…
So the Middle East is suddenly full of savages, so we have to act like savages too. Because we have to keep up.

"Canadian Anchor Baby, you've promised a lot. How the fuck are you going to get this shit done when everyone in Congress hates you?"
"I'll undo stuff!!!"
"Executive overreach" is an opinion, not a term.
I'm going to issue one executive order for each one Obama did because I hate them so much!
"The Donald, aren't you just another deal?"
"Reagan did it!"
Rubio just took a sip of water! DRINK!
Hug 'em, stroke 'em, fuck 'em and make a deal!

I would take drugs too if you were my brother, Ted…

So how are they expecting to do all of these things when they'd probably have to sign an executive order to do it?
For fuck's sake, where is the commercial break? I need to pee…or vomit…

Yes, because frightened, misinformed and furious people always make the wisest choice in national leaders.
Playing off the typical Republican voter.
Awwww
"The Donald, do you think the cops should be able to kill black and brown kids if they want to?"
"They said it was just a mistake! Give them a break!"
Trump wants to kill more black kids and gets cheered, yay!
Those poor policemen. They are afraid. We need to give them YOOGE respect. Then they will treat citizens with respect.
"Respect ma authoritah!"

Oops, sorry.
The Donald: cops love everyone!
Kasich: our cops and communities get along.

To be fair, Kasich has actually been trying hard on this issue.
College Boy: I'll go to a mosque, but fuck if I'll do anything about discrimination!
Rubio says Muslims aren't discriminated in America, are you fucking kidding me?
WOW FUCK YOU RUBIO, SAYING CHRISTIANS ARE THE ONLY ONES DISCRIMINATED AGAINST. FUCK YOU.
okay sorry that pissed me off
"Bridgegate Man, are you going to quarantine people again?"
"I cured that nurse of Ebola!"
How are they planning to prevent mosquitoes from immigrating to the US?
The Big Wall will do it!!!
On zika virus: Christie: "I will shoot all the mosquitoes!"
CHRISTIANS… are being discriminated… more…than… MUSLIMS?
My brain hurts.
I give Christie a 9/11 for this debate performance.
They gave a doctor a medical question! For once I'm glad.
He's a highly specialized surgeon, he's no fucking epidemiologist.
We're comparing to Donald Trump and Ted Cruz here.
Christie, you stupid bastard, you arrested and quarantined that nurse FOR NO GOOD REASON AT ALL.
When I think of a rapid response, I think of Ben Carson.
HA perfect
Should have added: "…eventually."
Carson: we need to hurry the fuck up and cure things.
Far too sensible. His comeback run is doomed.
"College Boy, should women have to register for the draft?"
"Obama is making us weak!!!"
Our Air Force didn't exist 100 years ago, did it?
They used observation balloons in the Civil war, but no.
Technically, yes. Although, as any military historian will tell you, it consisted of one horse with wings sewn onto its back.
" 'Cause nothing can stop the Army Air Force!"
Trying to imagine us having more people in that in 1916 when we barely had planes lol
Jeb!: our military spreads the word.
OF COURSE our armed forces are smaller! Technology, you oaf. It doesn't take 200 sailors to hoist the sails on the Navy's newest Littoral Combat ship. For Fuck's sake.
Barack, during the 2012 debate, something like: "Our military has fewer horses and bayonets, too!"
And all the Keyboard Kommandos furiously hit Google…
Bridgegate Man: I have daughters, so don't fuck with them!
All this talk about women and they won't back equal pay.
For pay!
Dr Carson: won't someone think about our veterans, not just the military?
OK, he's done.
Christie: Women can do anything! Except fully control their own reproductive systems, of course.
That would be wrong.
"All of you are chicken hawks…"
Glad one of the talking heads brought that up, FFS…
Jeb!: take care of veterans by busting the unions!

WHY IS RUBIO YELLING AGAIN
FIRE SOMEBODY. ANYBODY. AND FIRE SOMEBODY WHILE I'M WAITING TO FIRE SOMEBODY
IT'S A REPUBLICAN'TANDWON'T DEBATE
Cruz: "I don't want us to negotiate with parrots, er, terrorists."
Longstanding US Policy? Every single President in the last 35 years at least has negotiated like that. Cruz is lying his ass off.
Ted Cruz: Podium Thumper
The Donald: I raised money for vets, so all of my opponents suck.
Update: Cruz lied when he blamed CNN for the Carson thing
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statement…
What? Show your data on those social issues.
BTW, support for abortion rights is up, not down.
That would require them to actually think and not favor one side.
I think the RNC said they have to treat the candidates with kid's gloves or they won't get to host the debate.
Rubio just admitted to being against rights for women and got massive cheers. Disgusting. That right after saying gay people shouldn't marry.
Ho, the Democrats are the extremists, now?
Reality has an extremist bias.
Do we get free skateboards for being extreme?
No, you have to be XTREME
It's infuriating that CPCs receive state funding!! Grrrrr
Trump: "Every thing bad that is happening right now will disappear and go away quickly. Don't ask me how, it just will."
Christie: "Ham."
BTW, one of the funniest Wonket comments I've ever read was from hammypants. It was a caption contest after Hurricane Sandy and the picture was of Barack and Christie walking together, side by side. I believe the comment went a little something like this:
Obama: "What are you thinking about?"
Christie: "Ham."
Maybe you had to be there.
College Boy: I would rather lose.
I'm with him there….
I would rather you lose an election too!

Planned Parenthood baby parts! DRINK!
So many lies at once oh my god
Christie just went full Fiorina. Fuck him.
Christie's been like Fiorina for months now, it's awful.
Who gives a fuck who these assholes think will win the Super Bowl, FFS?
BABY PARTS REAGAN RAPE INCEST AAARRRGH
4 Carolina, 2 Denver, 1 Ben Carson
@ForecasterEnten
Guys, it's going to be Buffalo.
Mod to Christie, "One last word?" Christie: "Denver."
Should we assume he's talking about omelettes?
We call them Western Omelettes around here.
Welcome to the Republican Party, where women are just objects to control!
And now, a word from our audience:

It really has been that grotesque tonight.
Stream within a stream! WE NEED TO GO DEEPER!
This girl just said Christie impressed her. Right after lying to try to take away her rights. Fuck this.
I miss the nice, mostly sane Democratic debates.
So it is just me or is Rubio assuming he'll easily win the nomination? He's not even going against them, he's going against Clinton in this debate.
Yeah, he reminds me of a Mitt Romney that can actually show emotions.
Kasich: I've changed after listening to you and figuring out what you wanted to hear.
WHY ARE WE DINGING PEOPLE DURING CLOSING STATEMENTS LOL
That's not much time. Not that they're really saying anything of note.
Bridgegate Man: I serve the people who I can trick into voting for me. Also, 9.11 and Sandy.
"Not about partisanship", says the person who claimed the other party was a bunch of extremists.
Jeb!: Happy Birthday, Saint Ronnie!
She just said "Governor Carson", whoops!
REAGAN He wasn't 105 in office, he just acted that way.
Carson: pass the Benadryl, please.
"For many months the political class…sss………..zzzzzzzzzzz
College Boy: I have kids I hardly ever see. Vote for me.
It was Bush.

Canadian Anchor Baby: I hate ethanol and played dirty tricks to win Iowa. Vote for me.
Trump just took a HUGE snipe at the end and got booed, wow.
The Donald: Cruz is a cheater. Also, our nation is a loser. Vote for me.
How many times will we win? Only three?
"We don't win with health care, we don't win with trade, we don't win in Iowa…."
Cruz: "Forward into the past!"
IT'S FINALLY OVER
Praise God, it's over. Time to walk the dogs and then have several drinks finally. Have a good night, everyone!
Night!
Goodnight, and no nightmares to you.
May you sleep as well as Carson does all day.
Trump has Relations with New Hampshire?
IT'S OVER WE SURVIVED
These people, all of them, disgust me.
I'm embarrassed that they're American.
I know it would be bad, but… not this bad.
Wait, people watch those?
I saw the college kids in the commercial breaks, they were awful.
To be fair, they were interviewing students that happened to get together to watch Republicans debate. Probably not a good sample if looking for smart people.
Hey, they found the lone Bernie supporter. Lighten up!
Missed it. Damn!
Three if you count Ben Carson!

Perfect.
So Rubio and Trump looked worst tonight by a pretty significant margin. Considering those two were in the top two in the polls, who knows where New Hampshire might end up.

Damn it I forgot to use this
There's another debate for the Republicans just one week from tonight!
I plan on staying drunk.
That will come in handy during the general election debates.
Well. Correct me if I've got this wrong, but…
I heard no in-depth policy prescriptions, nothing at all about funding science, nothing on Obama's declared War on Cancer, little about our crumbling national infrastructure, an utter disregard of the actual national perspective that the Republican Party is wildly out of step on social issues, nothing about radical anarchists' armed occupation of the American people's land for their own personal profit, nothing at all about the grave civilizational threat of Anthropogenic CO2-caused Global Climate Change, nothing about the widespread proliferation of deadly military grade weaponry in the country, nothing at all about the deliberate poisoning of an American city with heavy metal tainted water, done purely for profit, no workable strategy for expanding the wealth of the middle class, little but homilies about "growing jobs", when automation and trade deals have permanently eliminated an entire class of well paying jobs, not much about an overly militarized civilian police that act like an occupying force, and nothing about an increasing intrusive surveillance state.
I did hear an unbelievably simplistic and dangerously naive military and foreign policy, though. A combination of ignorance and arrogance that exactly like the Bush Administration.
I wouldn't trust any of these people to park my car.
Other than all that, it was a pretty good debate.
Other than everything, it was pretty good. Amazing.
C_R-Eature/Warren 2016!
Seriously. I haven't read a better summary of our collective problems anywhere.
Golly, thanks! Those are just the things that get under my skin, I'm sure I missed something.
I don't think that the USA's ready for a Cephalopod-American President, though.
Missed tonight's debate because I had to go to a "party" and engage in "conversations" with "people."
That sounds horrible.
You have no idea. But any mention of Trump evoked nervous laughter at the prospect that he might
seize powerget elected.Well, it was a relatively sane crowd, at the least.
If it makes you feel better, I'm pretty sure the US will have a Cephalopod-American President before we ever have a woman as President.
Oh, and my favorite part was what Trump essentially said FUCK THE ATMOSPHERE.
It's amazing how a serious presidential candidate in 2016 can have a campaign point be that the atmosphere isn't that important.
Every. Fucking. Monday morning during drive time. They do it just to piss me off.
Oh, and yes, I'd pay to make her go away.
Please. Although is is fun yelling COKIE FUCKING ROBERTS on the road every Monday morning.
Sorry.
