SE Cupp: Did that really just happen?
“The last four years have tattooed a trauma on so many Americans, and it won’t fade overnight. There’s healing to do, and Biden has a long journey ahead.”
Van Jones:
"But let’s be clear: we just hit the biggest reset button in history. "
“the day has felt refreshingly normal”
A reset button to a President who was vice-President in the years leading up to Trump’s victory. Let’s reset and do the same shit. Normal was terrible for a lot of people.
Other people saying “great I don’t have to worry about politics any more”, fuck yes you do, that attitude is how we got here.
If Democrats let Biden just be not Trump and better than Trump we are all fucked.
Clearly never been in a car where the only soundrack is your daughter’s best friend’s playlist of Only Imagine Dragons Songs.
I liked Radioactive (I also liked This Is How Your Remind Me, funnily enough) .
Then every other song of theirs turned out to be the same fucking “epic” shit. You know what all their subsequent songs remind me of? The rival boy a capella group from Pitch Perfect.
You fell. Hi! Today some bad things happened. One bad thing was a train got crashed in New jersey. Want to see? People won’t be late for work, though, because the governor lady said, “I’m sending in more trains.” Wait for me!strong text
The “wait for me” kills me. Last four years, some bad things happened. We’re sending more moderates!
I may regret asking such an open-ended question, but I’m somewhat serious about it. Things weren’t perfect in 2016, but the cure (Trump) was worse than the disease (?).
If you’re trying to reverse the direction of a large ship – or even an automobile – there comes a point where you’re headed in neither direction. To berate the helmsman because he’s not instantly headed west when you were going east accomplishes nothing.
Keep your eye on the compass and make sure the needle keeps turning.
That assumes your goal is to “reverse the direction of the ship” and not to “find any excuse, no matter how tenuous or ludicrous, to criticize the helmsman”.
This morning, I read an email newsletter griping “Today is the 3rd day that Biden has chosen not to guarantee healthcare for all.” Manwich, was that you?
