Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

Don't let Tom Nichols see this, or we'll all be subjected to a 300 post tantrum about why we are all stupid for calling it fascism.

"He's not a war hero. He's a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured."

MAGA rubes in Idaho will blame Democrats when they see Qatari fighter jets flying over their towns.

Because of course they will.

Donald Trump, who tried to overthrow the government of the United States of America in 2021, is now invading American cities with the military.

You can fuck right off, Atlantic. I'm canceling my subscription. You hacks won't get any more of my money.

The Republican party is the modern day Confederacy.

"You look at--they call it Norbiggle--and it's big, believe me. But you look at what's going on with Hussein Obama--you look at Shifty Schiff and others--and it's a disgrace what's going on with prizes. But we're doing strongly with Norwegian--and Norbiggle--so we're very happy."

A man who has declared war on American cities is not deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Sure, doctors and scientists have advanced degrees, years of experience, and submit to thorough reviews of their work...

...but none of them are wealthy failsons who are famous from going on the TV box. So how do we know who to trust?

I would've thought that W. would have been the one with the loyal cult, what with post-9/11 country music and the multiple wars (which also featured country music).

Turns out that Christian Really Real Americans prefer a cult based on a draft dodging felon with multiple wives.
