    Most of those quotes are pretty fucking dumb, regardless.

    That's because George feels it is required that he use eloquent language. He can't say "Goddamn, Trump is dumb as a damn stump!" like normal people.

    They're very dumb.

    But, the WaPo didn't go out and interview (or highlight the interviews from a focus group) these same people in 2008, after they voted for Obama, and point out how dumb they were, and how their decision making process was flawed, to say the least.

    Obama voters were celebrated, regardless of why they voted for him, or how dumb they were.

    You have to hand it to him; he can turn a phrase.

    It's a better line than any left wing critic has come up with.

    And, since @outofplace will be along shortly to accuse me of trying to distract from the RUSSIAN INVESTIGATION!!!!, let's check back in on that.

    Any evidence of collusion turn up yet?

    Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on Wednesday that there is so far no evidence showing collusion between Donald Trump's campaign aides and Russian officials.

    Blitzer mentioned that Feinstein and other colleagues from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence had visited CIA headquarters on Tuesday to be briefed on the investigation. He then asked Feinstein whether she had evidence, without disclosing any classified information, that there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential campaign.

    "Not at this time," Feinstein said.

    "Well, that's a pretty precise answer," Blitzer said.

    They're being taken in by a simplistic argument. No different than the low information voters that have voted Republicans for generations.

    Yes. And, they were also taken in by a simplistic argument -- Hope and Change -- when they voted for Obama.

    They're literally the same people. They voted for Obama and trump.

    Only now do people want to point out how dumb they are.

    Plenty of folks threw around the "low-information voter" line at folks who voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012.

    And Trump voters are dumber than a box of rocks. He is proving that by how quickly he's jettisoning campaign promises and how horribly he's CEO-ing things. They are stupid because they fell for an obvious conman.

    That's because voting for Trump was dumb. Voting for Obama wasn't.
