Donald Trump: *slowly drools a thick viscous cream colored substance* Elton John: 🎶 But the biggest kick I ever got Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock 🎶 50 year old who bought a 130,000 dollar truck and owes 135,000 on it: we are taking this country back

I keep hearing "more take-home pay" in pro-Trump messaging, which is a truly impressive bit of bullshit. It makes the GOP sound pro-worker without doing anything to fight for higher wages or stronger labor protections. As an American, I hate it. As a copywriter, I'm impressed.

this is the clearest evidence possible that there is no way for harris to satisfy either the call for more media hits or the call for more details. the political press has its narrative and it is not going to budge for it, even if it has to make up a reason to dismiss actual engagement with media

"Understand that what you're doing, you need to expect this to happen." 100%. When did people stop being ashamed of being assholes in public? When did these dipshits stop thinking they'd just be laughed at or yelled at? When did it stop being embarrassing to be a College Republican?

Blend it all into a slurry and sluice it down my throat

This is the debate moment, right here.

Walz got the sound bite of the night when Vance wouldn’t answer the 2020 election question. That’ll be in the ads. Might be the only thing that matters from tonight.

I will remember this exchange for as long as I live.

Intellectual diversity is important, and faculty tilt strongly to the left. We should also acknowledge that a big part of this tilt is the complete collapse of the intellectual strand of conservatism in the US. It's hard to be scholarly and right-leaning today. www.nytimes.com/2024/09/14/a...

Should a ‘Diverse’ Campus Mean More Conservatives?

Republicans are demanding colleges embrace “viewpoint diversity.” They aren’t the only ones who are concerned.
