They want the kind of higher education that gave legacy admissions and gentleman’s C’s.

And while they are motivated by racism as well as class prejudice, they also hate poor white people gaining class mobility. Actual meritocracy makes the dimwitted offspring of the upper class look as dimwitted as they are. I’m a working-class white guy who went to an elite university on a full scholarship-- the dolts with surnames for first names assumed I was a preppie like them, since I was literate and did well in my classes. Most of them weren’t and didn’t.

After seeing what the privileged classes are like, it’s a miracle I didn’t become a bolshevik.

“You could murder this child in Gaza-- or you could turn the page.”

My dad drove until he was 88. He was an excellent driver and never had any tickets or caused any problems for others.

My mom quit driving in her early 80s because she didn’t like driving and could afford to take Lyft when she needed to go somewhere.

So I’d say it depends on the person. Having said that, I’m all in favor of more frequent testing for older drivers. When things go wrong, they can go wrong quickly. And I wouldn’t trust Trump to know how to operate a paper bag, let alone a car.

“Make-up sex”? Like using bronzer for lube?

Whose job is it to wash the spunk off the seats?

“Protestors” -> PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATORS.

They should hand them over to the Hague.

It’d be fine with me if there futures were short.

On the other hand, Vance is a loathsome piece of shit who even the MAGAts don’t like much.

Let’s see if it’s real or more kabuki.

If Trump announces cancellation of major contracts with Musk-owned firms, it’s probably real. Otherwise, not.

Yeah, maybe they phrased the headline that way for the people who thought the bombers just did that to themselves.

And who’s controlling the CBO these days? What reason is there to believe that they’re capable of impartial forecasting anymore?

That implies that each party has its own media ecosystem, and they’re equally effective. But there is almost no center-left or leftist media in the US with any reach at all.

Polls generally don’t model the results of electoral fuckery.

Nothing is more indicative of Trump’s character than attacking a man in his 80s with metastatic cancer, while at the same time licking Putin’s arse.
