    For the most part this just reminds me that presidential endorsements seem pretty antiquated. They mattered when information came out in a trickle and newspapers were respected for expertise. They're not any more, and the only benefit to doing them is a little traffic bump from angry folks.

    I'm sure some endorsements matter, mostly on the local level, but the big ones seem like a great way to induce rage with little payout.

    John Kerry and the State Department have lost their collective minds.

    Trump must be a lurker.

    Thanking yourself is so presidential.

    Thanks Inky for pointing that out!

    What the fuck, man. How could they possibly be dumb enough to post something like this?

    I gotta say, you sometimes write some really worked-up shit. Get a grip, man. If the NYT endorsed Trump you would have a line out the door to dump subs. That's human nature. Why continue to support something that has views completely opposite to your own?

    State makes a dumb tweet: THAT'S WHO OBAMA IS!

    Trump makes hundreds of dumb tweets: Ignore his tweets. They're not literal or serious.

    To be fair, Donald Trump hasn't publicly thanked a government that is actively participating in genocide... Yet.

    I'd like to see the source of those statistics.
