So are you saying he said "booze" each time he repeated it? Squint your eyes, tilt your head, and stand on your hands, and Trump supporters look like Abraham Lincoln too.
And what do you mean by "the direction things are going?" Clumsy deflection, by any chance?

That's what you get when your only rationale for making a decision is what's gonna eff with the system the most. You reap what you sow.

No, when I saw it live that's what I thought he was saying. Afterwards I realized what had happened. I think part of it was I couldn't comprehend someone would go on tv and say that.
A sad week for journalism when you have one going on Twitter saying the president is a white supremacist and another goes on CNN saying he loves boobs. We should be better than this.

So, the Cassidy-Graham repeal is closing in on the reconciliation votes before this month ends.

Sadder still when both are probably true.

Calling an ESPN talking head a journalist is quite the stretch, regardless of Jamele Hill's previous employment. Also, she was correct in her statement.

Clay Travis isn't a journalist. Just some jackarse former attorney who loves the sound of his own voice, and figured out there was more money to be made in low IQ stunt media. Reminds me of another presstitute we're all too familiar with.

Beyond the obvious, the guy on the left needs a suit that fits.
The boobs thing was super cringey. I just don't even know how to react to a grown man saying that thing on national television.

The knucks in my office have the same stillborn, sophomoric "humor." It comes out of misogyny and the whole treatment of women as objects.
One of the transitional moments of maturity for males, mid 20s, late 20s unless they're morons, is when they realize that women aren't Madonna/whore dualities, they don't belong on a pedestal, that they're not more moral or closer to God or any of the halfwit malarkey that conservatives and religious fanatics have projected onto them. They're. Just. People. As full of sh-t as men, and the worship/shaming mechanism that men (and most women) have hidden behind is just so much adolescent tripe.
Many guys just never grow up. They never make the leap from sex as a dirty joke or women as a mystery to pine or drool over. It's painful to watch movies from the 40s and 50s where the entire American popular culture was like this (not the 20s and 30s mind you). Most older guys, but also younger guys from dumber parts of the country, have never gotten over it.

Reading all of the scuttlebutt over Clinton's book and re-hashing the reasons she lost has left me with the notion that the movers and shakers in the democratic party still don't get it. Sadly, they are like the republicans in ways they should NOT be and not like them in ways they SHOULD be.
Clinton laments that Sanders "ran for the nomination not to help the (democratic) party but to 'disrupt it.'" Since when is it a candidate's responsibility to help the "party?" In that it is obvious she wanted voters who lean left to act like the typical RWNJ voter who votes for nothing more than the little "r" next to the name.
Where we absolutely have to resemble the other party is in how we speak, act and campaign. It is all about getting the right people in there. The republicans have have been running on a very narrow focus of scapegoating and scaring voters for a long time now and the one who scares the most people seems to be the one who comes out on top.
Clinton decries the fact that Sanders chose not to spend much time focusing on "immigration, reproductive rights, racial justice and gun safety." She is still blind. We do not need democrats to run on 275 different identity politics platforms. The party elders better recognize the fact the anyone who did not vote for trump for deplorable reasons voted for him because they bought his phony economic populism. Sanders staying power during his campaign was because of his economic populism. The American people have shown they are ready for a president who embraces this sort of economic populism. Sanders articulated a vision that can win. Where he fell short -- and is still falling short -- is on the details. Unlike republicans, democratic voters do like to see the nuts and bolts. We're actually able to think and process much more effectively than most republican voters.
The vast, vast majority of voters are working people. In other words if we quit working, we quit eating, tomorrow, next week or next month. In that huge group of people are blacks, whites, young, old, gay, straight or somewhere on a long spectrum. There are atheists, agnostics, Muslims, Baptists, Jews and Catholics. There are Juggalos, Judy Collins fans, Phil Collins fans and people who worship on the alter of KISS, Judas Priest and AC/DC. But what we ALL have in common is we need that paycheck. If you want to unite voters, unite them around that paycheck. When democrats start focusing on that, they will start winning races. And really, don't Sanders (and virtually every other non-republican elected official you can name) views on the other common progressive issues already mirror yours much more than trump's?
If my neighbor hates gays and Muslims I might not be able to change his heart, but as long as he can feed his family we have to worry a lot less about him scapegoating people who are not like him in those kinds of ways and falling for some politician who tells him he needs to fear those people for any reason.

The reality is, that's how a majority of men act when they're "with the guys" and talking about women. Is it immature? Of course it is. Clay Travis getting on TV and engaging in gym shower humor is just an example of how, depending on your POV, Trump has either emboldened the illiterati, or encouraged people to say what they really think when the PC curtain is pulled back.
They also fart regularly, but it's always you or your dog's fault.
