Can’t wait for Trump’s spittle-filled Christmas message of hate, invective and retribution.

“That’s what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown”

Bingo.

McConnell was quick to criticize Trump after January 6, but he still voted against barring him from office after he was impeached for the second time. He has since critiqued Trump on a few more occasions, but he certainly will vote for him next year.

Yeah, I get it too, the “Democrats are much worse” argument and the “I like him because he hurts the people I hate” argument. I had my own “How can trump still be a viable candidate?” thread, so I feel like I’m pretty well schooled on the sad realities of trumpism. But I _ **still** _ cannot for the life of me understand how even the most venal, hate-filled, anti-Democratic American can read that Thanksgiving screed and not, at least in the back of their mind, think “wow, he is kinda nutballs”.

Hell, @Smapti 's better at this than I am. Maybe we should get him in here and let him try.

Well, that’s what we need–a President who is their kind of nutballs. Them regular nutball types are just RINOs.

This is why I kind of hoped @hurrilon would stay in the thread and play with us a while longer. I would really be interested in his rationalization of this.

ETA: corrected spelling

I figured as much; wasn’t knocking your spelling of an unfamiliar username, I just wanted to help you find his posts.

Also, I admit I amused myself with the ‘2 r’s, as in insu_ **rr** _ection’ comment.

Oh, I know it only too well. It was just a dumb joke. I’m starting to get overloaded again - I’m gonna need a news break before long.

Brian Roberts, its Chairman and CEO, is a slimeball who has been able to get away with these constant attacks for years. It is the world’s biggest political contribution to the Radical Left Democrats who, by the way, are destroying our Country. Our so-called “government” should come down hard on them and make them pay for their illegal political activity. Much more to come, watch!

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems to me that MSNBC is not carried over the air. It isn’t a broadcast network anywhere and is carried by cable and satellite providers only.

This is Melania, so Donald-adjacent:

All the living First Ladies attended Rosalynn Carter’s funeral service. All of them wore suitably somber black.

Except Mrs. T, who stood out (as she no doubt intended) in a [light grey outfit](https://www.newsweek.com/melania-trump-outfit-rosalynn-carter-memorial-service-1847697#slideshow/2315691).

About as classy as one would expect from her.

I’m no fashion expert, but from my lay-person perspective, that outfit is not offensive for a funeral.

Not per se, but when everyone else of your status is dressed otherwise at a solemn occasion, it reeks of “Look at me!”

Don’t forget, she wore a jacket with “I really don’t care. Do U?” on the back when doing a visit to the Texas border during the family separation crisis.

Well, Little Donnie Fail-Fail has a point about shutting down MSNBC. I mean, look how the government shut down Truth Social so he can’t twooth anymore. SO UNFAIR! Oh, wait. They didn’t.
