President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

How is it doing so? Is there someone the screen shot that I'm missing ?

 

There was a moment on CNN when they were complaining about the Trump news dump coming ahead of the hurricane. "There is a serious hurricane that we should be talking about and now we have to talk about Arpaio and Gorka..." (I thought - nobody is MAKING you talk about Arpaio and Gorka)

 

I think this is YF's winking way of acknowledging Fox needs to slow its roll.

 

I have no earthly idea. I'm mocking it.

 

Got it.
It is an interesting time to be alive, isn't it?

 

The truth hurts. They should blame their guy in the dump at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. But they can't very well do that.

 

Wow. Wonder what this is all about.

 

Whew. Trump gets to call it terrorism now.

 

knife - four-foot sword, whatever.

Is it still terrorism if you are never afraid?

 

we need more good guys with four-foot swords.

 

Lots of liberals upset with this today:

Lilla, who has expanded that article into his new, brief book, “The Once and Future Liberal: After Identity Politics,” insists that his is the pragmatic view: that in order to secure progress for overlooked and oppressed peoples—in order to advance a liberal economic, environmental, and social agenda—political power must be won, which means that elections must be won. At the moment, the Democratic Party—from elections for the White House to state legislatures—is failing. The Democrats, he says, were once the party of the working class; now the Democrats are largely a loose coalition of educated coastal élites and minorities. Why is it now possible to drive across the country for thousands of miles without hitting a blue state or county? How did the Democrats lose a decisive number of Obama voters to someone like Donald Trump? Lilla believes that identity politics is a central part of the answer.

When I read Lilla’s book and then talked with him for The New Yorker Radio Hour, I found much to disagree with, not least his cutting dismissals of “social-justice warriors” or movements like Black Lives Matter, which he sees as a “textbook example of how not to build solidarity.”
