Today's Robert

In the end it's just a well-organized pile of sticks and rocks, but...

And it becomes even more obvious that Trump is going to absurd lengths to tell us he gets to do whatever he wants, and what he wants right - more than anything in the world - is to keep us focused on stupid shit like his little vanity project instead of the reasons behind it.

• Epstein files
• Outright, swamp-wallowing corruption
• His constant nuzzling of Putin
• The unbelievably stupid "policies" that are sweeping away far more than part of the East Wing

Find Out What They Want

In sales, you need to figure out what your prospect wants, and then figure out how to get it for him, without giving away the whole store.

In this resistance movement thing, we need to figure out what the other guy wants, and then figure out how to deprive him of it, without dying on a hill that doesn't really matter.

The One Big Bamboozle (updated)

The Instagram post truncates, so I went looking for the full version.

Tearing It All Down

On Love For Our Kids

No Kings Wrap Up

She makes a good point about the next Dem POTUS. We have to have somebody who'll figure out how to get after people who are trying hard to fuck this thing up for the rest of us. And do it in a way that makes it obvious that it's not just political. The shit Trump is pulling has an inoculating effect, so it's gotta be righteous enough to withstand the shit we're going to get from the wingnut media.

BTW, the Trumplefuck who crashed and burned on the curb (starting at about 16:50) - that was in Denver. A Giants fan to boot. The kid shouldn't have grabbed his glasses, and that other kid shouldn't have tripped him - these are dumb things to do. Of course, maybe the guy shouldn't have called anybody a "fag" - these are "fightin' words". Just sayin'. Very glad it wasn't worse.

Wait - What?

If only we could count on people being reasonable.
