Fact: There Is No Conservative Solution To A Crisis Conservatism Caused
If I was to continue the alliteration, I’d say: Ka-ching!” That’s because it’s so on the money. We are in a crisis… no, we’re in a storm of crises. If only we had just one crisis to deal with this second, it’d be bad enough. But Donald Trump and the Republican Party have brought us…

Maybe It’s Time To Make “Stupid” A Verb — As In “Donald Trump & The GOP Are ‘Stupiding’ America To Death”
The very worst part about going down the shitter the way we are is how stupid we are for going down the shitter. Watching other countries not go down the shitter because they weren’t as stupid — it’s salt in the wound. But, Republicans aren’t just being stupid here. They’re being very deliberate. They still…

Damn! “Worldwide Pandemic” Was NOT On My “Shit That Could Happen During MY Lifetime” Bingo Card
On the other hand, I didn’t have “Treasonous POTUS” on my card either.
