The election is over, and one thing is clear: we have a lot of work to do! Please join us Tuesday evening at the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally for a post-election debriefing and discussions about the future.
We meet every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the small room at the back of the tavern beginning about 8pm.
Can’t make it to Seattle on Tuesday night? Check out one of the other 189 chapters of Living Liberally, including twenty in Washington state, three in Oregon and one in Idaho. Find, or go out and start, a chapter near you.
I learned a new word this morning.
Kakistocracy.
“a government… for the benefit of knaves at the cost of fools.”
Certainly that is what the GOP has done for us in this latest election. We’ve gone from a Constitutional law professor to a man who couldn’t pass a basic high school level civics test without daddy writing a check to someone.
He doesn’t knowanything. He just doesn’t have the basic intelligence to understand the functions and responsibilities of the position he has found himself in.
I doubt he has ever been held responsible for anything, and has learned no lessons in his life. He has never been told “No” by anyone in his life who could make it stick. He just bulldozes his way over people and then ignores them when they become a little too annoyed at whatever scam they’ve just discovered he’s pulled over on them. His total business model has been built around just ripping people off for his entire life. He pays no taxes, he pays no fair value for anything, he’s been involved with incredibly shady shit and shady people since he became a “businessman” in his own right.
And now he wants his kids to have top-level security clearances?
For what? To do his homework for him? To handle the day-to-day reading and information analysis that all Presidents have had to do since this Nation was founded so they can translate it into language that he can understand? How the hell could they understand any of it?
I wonder about that, because there has been some indication, certainly from his personal vocabulary and apparent beliefs about what he knows about the world, is that he cannot read anything written above the third-grade level. He is functionally illiterate. He just doesn’t have the basic intelligence necessary. He’s not going to be able to retreat behind an Army of Lawyers, he’s not going to be able to tie people up in litigation for 10 or 15 years when there is shit that needs to be done right fucking NOW when some turd hits a fan somewhere in the world and he just doesn’t have the basic speed of thought to handle that.
So what, he’s going to put his kids in charge?
It isn’t a fashion show, it’s not an exhibition, it isn’t a fucking game. There is more to the job than looking good for the cameras. Even Ronald Reagan had some understanding of that, and he was completely senile by the time he was up for his second election. He just let his staffers handle everything, and to a man, they were all criminals. Drug smugglers, gun runners, fraudsters and racketeers. People who used their own positions in the government to manipulate finances to their own benefit, even when confronted with emergent situations. Fucking chiselers.
That shit isn’t going to hang in this day and age.
@ 1
Trump didn’t do this:
In part because Americans like a check and balance on their president, in part because Republicans played their cards right, Republicans grabbed more of America’s statehouses and governor’s mansions during the Obama administration than at any time in the modern era. And they held onto those majorities Tuesday.
Results are still trickling in, but it looks like Republicans will still control an all-time high 69 of 99 state legislative chambers. They’ll hold at least 33 governorships, tying a 94-year-old record.
That means that come 2017, they’ll have total control of government in at least 25 states, and partial control in 20 states. According to population calculations by the conservative group Americans for Tax Reform, that translates to roughly 80 percent of the population living in a state either all or partially controlled by Republicans.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/11/12/these-3-maps-show-just-how-dominant-republicans-are-in-america-after-tuesday/
How might that have happened, you might wonder. In case you missed the clue above, another one rests in this tweet:
Joe Scarborough @JoeNBC Nov 13
Democrats Under Barack Obama
-11 seats in Senate
-60 seats in House
-14 governorships
-900 state legislative seats
Worst since 1922.
That’s a lot of accomplishment. Even for a constitutional law professor.
Enjoy your retirement, Mr. President.
Where did all of those formerly Democrat-held legislative seats go, you might wonder.
Well, they walked, or retired, with these types:
Gone is the pro-life Democrat, the gun-rights Democrat, the Democratic hawk, the Democrat who supported the traditional definition of marriage, the Democrat concerned with religious liberty at home—and good riddance to them, in the eyes of those who remain. Joe Manchin, the very popular West Virginia Democratic governor who got himself elected to the Senate in 2010 in part due to a television commercial that showed him firing a bullet through the cap-and-trade bill, is reportedly considering a party switch before he runs again for the Senate. In 2012, the Republican got 65 percent of the vote in Manchin’s state. This year, Donald Trump won West Virginia with 69 percent. What would you do if you were Manchin?
https://www.commentarymagazine.com/articles/bare-ruined-choirs/
Not the first time I’ve seen Manchin named as a guy thinking of switching seats. He’s more likely to remain a Dem because of President-elect Trump, than he would be were he facing 2018 with President, er, Clinton.
I guess it might depend, at least in part, on how much help DNC chair Keith Ellison provides to the white guy from the coal-producing state over the next year or so.
Hey, how much help did the DNC chair provide to Senator Sanders this past election cycle?
It’s the arrogant attitude that many liberal progressives have towards non-college educated whites that won states like Ohio and Wisconsin for Trump. Trump was effective in winning those states because he used liberal progressive snobbery to win over people who work with their hands fixing cars and installing sheetrock.
Darryl’s first sentence of this thread says a lot: you’ve got work to do. Stop whining and get to it.

Bernie ain’t having none of it.
Bernie Sanders ✔ @BernieSanders
I come from the white working class, and I am deeply humiliated that the Democratic Party cannot talk to the people where I came from.
7:55 AM – 14 Nov 2016
Clearly what Sanders means is that liberals are not doing a good enough job hiding their condescension toward those with whom they disagree, and that more dishonesty and misdirection is required.
The revenge-taking has started. Allies of Chris Christie are being thrown off Trump’s transition team in a “Stalinesque purge.”
“Multiple sources indicated that Christie was demoted because he wasn’t seen as sufficiently loyal to Trump, failing to vocally defend him at key moments on the campaign trail. But he has long been in a precarious position with Trump, due in part, multiple sources say, to a longstanding grudge sparked when Christie prosecuted Kushner’s father in 2004. Due to Christie’s investigation, Charles Kushner eventually pleaded guilty to 18 felony counts, including tax fraud and witness tampering, and was sentenced to two years in federal prison.”

@1 The Constitution allows voters to elect an eggplant, as long as it’s a citizen and at least 35 years old. It must be noted, however, that in this case a majority of voters did not choose the eggplant and he ascended to power through a system designed to perpetuate slavery.
President-elect Slimeball has pledged to appoint SCOTUS justices who will overturn Roe v. Wade. If that happens, it doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the world for women’s liberation. There is, after all, an alternative to abortion. Let’s see how Republican males enjoy living in a world of abstinence.
@5 Apparently you’ve forgotten that respect has to be earned.
So the reports are in that Ben Carson declined a role in the administration becaus,
Think about that. He wanted to BE president but agrees that he isn’t even qualified to WORK FOR a President.
Or maybe it was a con all along to get the rubes to buy his book and rent the Cuba Gooding Jr. movie,
To put Seattle’s housing crisis in perspective, “Since 2005, 100 percent of the growth in King County homeownership has occurred among people age 55 and older.” That’s because no one else can afford to buy a home here.

And because young, sane people with children do not want to raise their children in seattle. Even seattles best public schools are dismal failures.
Cost of living is cheaper and the schools are x10000% better in Bellevue SD, Northshore SD, Tahoma SD, Issaquah SD, etc……
@12 Are you fucking kidding? No way could we afford to buy the house we’re living in now. I doubt you and Mrs. Rabbit could afford to buy yours either.
I certainly hope Obama pardons Hillary. If she gets a pardon, it means the end of Hillary’s political life. Let’s hope she gets pardoned so we never have to see or hear from her again.
While we’re at it, let’s look at keeping any Bush or Clinton out of government forever. Those families have done enough damage.
@20
No, no, no. No pardon. None needed.
Your side can continue embarrassing themselves trying to “pin” something on her. The rumor is Mike Rogers is out because he didn’t find that she ordered the Benghazi attacks personally and he couldn’t find the “stand down” order. He’s gotta go. We didn’t google him before we hired him and he doesn’t have blood dripping fangs. He’s unacceptable.
The FBI still can’t find an actionable case from the e-mail server. Well hell, let’s just keep trying. Eventually we’ll get the right FBI director and AG to charge her and then lose in court.
By all means, have her up on the hill testifying every other month. Nothing like letting everyone know you’re spending another hundred million or so trying to find ANYTHING that is actually criminal about Hillary.
That’s a good plan.
All the dumbasses who gave best-it-can-be karsen kook-koo what? 70 million plus to run for Preznit? Any regrets?
Naaaah. They’re freaking oblivious.
The Donilld. Oh it’s going to end the “war on coal”..
Sniff.. sniff.. 50,000 coal jobs were lost between 2008 – 2012. Thanks a lot Obama you globull warmist..

Wrong! Reality check time.. Those 50,000 jobs were lost due to mechanization.. They’re not coming back..
Drumpf promises to loosen regs on fracking which can only mean MORE cheaper fracked gas..

He looks to me like a burnt-out, washed up investment banker who nowadays just excels at being a white supremacist and nasty misogynist.
I’m sure the fiend is hell-bent on doing as much damage to this country as it can. What else has it got going for it? That hate website?

“President Donald Trump is a small-penised sex-obsessed pervert who stands accused of raping a 13 year old girl and who, given his temperament, has in all likelihood sexually abused at least one of his own children. He is mentally unstable and among the dumbest individuals ever to hold any public office anywhere, is quite probably colluding with Russia to undermine American interests, and spends his evenings aggressively masturbating to National Geographic footage of burrowing meerkats. His sole aim in acquiring the presidency is to convert the Lincoln Bedroom into a Rape Room, and he will sell an American nuclear weapon to ISIS for fifteen dollars and change if he thinks he’d make two dollars worth of profit on it.”

@2 The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Eight years of peace and prosperity weren’t enough. The Republicans want to turn the entire country into Mississippi. The American people agree. We have yet to see where they go or how that plays out. But if the past is prologue, it won’t be pretty.
@31,
The only thing wrong with Mississippi is the weather, the gimmedats, and the illegals.
Nobody expects Trump to fix the weather.
They lost those jobs between 2008 and 2012. We’re in 2016. Do the arithmetic.
Are you saying they were too lazy to find other work? Or all the good jobs were taken by “mongrels”? Apparently, “Real Americans” were having trouble reaching their bootstraps since 2012. Was obesity an issue?
Well Father Drumpf is coming to the “Real Americans” rescue. They needed saving I guess.
Whaaaaateever.
Nobody expects Trump to fix the weather.
Nobody expects the small-penised sex-obsessed pervert to do much of anything beyond tweeting and groping women and children.
Military Leaders Urge Trump to See Climate as a Security Threat
Dozens of military and defense experts advised the president-elect that global warming should transcend politics
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/military-leaders-urge-trump-to-see-climate-as-a-security-threat/?WT.mc_id=SA_DD_20161115
I’m sure the small-penised sex-obsessed pervert will take that seriously. Oh wait,
The man planning how a Trump administration can obliterate Obama’s environmental legacy is Myron Ebell, a Washington fixture who has long been a cheerful warrior against what he sees as an alarmist, overzealous environmental movement that has used global warming as a pretext for expanding government…
Well so much for that.
@33,
“Whaaaaateever.”
You make an excellent point.
It is “whaaaaateever”. From now on, with corrupt liberal elites pushed aside, it’s whatever Real Americans say it is.

Puddy heard on libtard news that 210 counties that voted for B HUSSEIN Obummer twice flipped to Trump in 2016. So why did that happen HA DUMMOCRETIN fools?
Your candidate SUCKED!
Your candidate LIED!
Your candidate HID!
@36 i.e. +1 vote for mob rule. Given the type of stuff “(sur)Real Americans” read on Breitbart, it’s going to be a time of ugly mis-governance for this country.
@38 Do you need a cigarette after that?
Yawn, yes those counties flipped and when all is said and done Drumpf won’t get many more votes than R-Money in 2012 and still less than Hillary got.
I blame Super PACS and non-stop bullshit ads in 12 battleground states. People turned off to politics in 2012 and 2016 is the untold story. Voter suppression in those battleground states especially WI didn’t help either.
@39,
that’s 290 votes to you. 290 sweet, sweet electoral votes from rural, redneck, “gun hugging”, Real America. And it’s only going to be ugly for fragile daisies cowering in their safe spaces.
For Real America its the dawning of corruption free government in service to the real majority.
Oh, are you calling those 210 counties that voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012 and their ill-advised choice to flip “cowering fragile daisies”? Sure seems like it.
They had guns back then right?
You want to KILL those folks in the streets right now. Is that it? Makes sense. Kill them now before they organize to pick up the pieces after Drumpf ruins the place.
How SURREAL of you.
I don’t understand why Drumpf supporters don’t like Paul Ryan.
All he wants to do is eliminate Social Security, Medicare and taxes on rich people.
@42,
Eliminating Social Security and Medicare eliminates taxes…
on everyone.
@43 And introduces dog and cat food to many people’s diets.
If they don’t die first.
What’s the price of dog and cat food these days? I bet it’s gone way up.
@40 Thanks for all the comments. You generated enough Google ads page impressions all by yourself to buy me a beer tonight.

Well which is it? Are you limousine liberals all rationing your cat food and starving or rolling in Google ads revenue while playfully splashing each other with imported beer?

You didn’t attend Soros’ Democracy Alliance (AKA dumb ASSes) donor club? Did you know people who make $400,000 or more they voted BIG time for Hillary Clinton? It was at the Mandarin Oriental hotel. That’s a pricey place.
Your benefactor didn’t send you? Ddn’t get rub ASSes with other DUMMOCRETIN peeps like Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Congressional Progressive Caucus co-chairman Keith Ellison?
@46 A lot of Drumpf supporters took Drumpf at his word when he said he wouldn’t mess with Social Security or Medicare.
Cash assistance type welfare was block granted in 1995 and never increased since. Perverse incentives drive states to spend the block grants to balance their budgets. As a result, it serves fewer and fewer. Very hard to impossible to get and barely enough to die on.
EITC however was increased on a bi-partisan basis several times since then. Many working poor people rely on it to make ends meet. It’s hard to make ends meet when Wal-Mart or another outfit cuts your hours and demands you show up whenever it wants so you can’t work another job.
Sorry if Drumpf MIGHT disappoint a surreal American like you on that score. We’ll assume the worst anyway.
DUMMOCRETINS still don’t get it. They chose the rich elites over the poor middle class. Still doing it now!
SMACKDOWN!
http://www.politico.com/magazi.....men-214454
Interesting article.
@48,
Your new leader Trump is good for his word.
Neither he, nor Speaker Ryan has any plan that would affect Real Americans currently depending on Social Security or Medicare.
Future freeloaders like you will have to plan better, though. You’ll have to learn how to invest in things other than scratch tickets, Economy-sized Malt Liquor, and loose Air Jordans.
When Michigan finalizes Trump will be at 306; 100% probability!
@47 Did you sit at the toddler’s table at this confab?
Isn’t that “welfare”? Didn’t you just argue for the economy-stimulating benefits of eliminating those redistribution programs?
Oh you must be so disappointed that politicians you support have compromised with socialism.
This must cause raised blood pressure in any surreal american. I feel so bad for you.
Hmmm. Pretty loaded language there. Did you learn that from a certain criminology section on the Breitbart website? The babbling jackass loon who has just babbled about Soros and is creaming himself over Michigan is a big fan of that. You’ll hit it off.
How could surreal americans have made the choice to be “dependent”. Oh my..
The emmessemmm must have made them do it. Thank heavens for glorified pimp and sadistic pervert Roger Ailes and his Faux News Channel.
Hmmm.. And didn’t something like 87 thousand Michiganders vote their entire ballot and didn’t bother to fill in the bubble for President?
Yes that’s the case.
Pretty bad way to say the 24/7 bullshit ads on their TV’s made their lives miserable.

I just realized that after January 20th, YLB won’t be able to worship a TWO TERM president for at least eight years.
That’s 2,922 days of effeminate behavior and misuse of caps and exclamation points.
At least YLB’s got Goldy.
@67 yeah that “unpopular” President (see comment 59) will have served TWO WHOLE TERMS in Jan 2017..
And whipped the ASS, in approval rating, of the miserable failure you voted for twice.
Imagine that.
As for that other unpopular democratic President who did not serve two terms – Jimmy Carter.
He survived brain cancer. Wow. Had to have been divine intervention. Had to have been.
For that we can thank the prayers of the SDA kult of the babbling jackass loon. They have the direct dial to the man upstairs. How could it be otherwise?
Yesterday evening the perpetually unemployable ‘froggy informed us

He was sure of this, apparently, because one man tackled another, on camera.
Not so fast stepping out of that unemployment line to get your free shit, ‘froggy:
Tim Adams, the protester who was tackled inside the Ohio Union during a Monday night rally protesting President-elect Donald Trump, announced on Tuesday that he is seeking to drop the charges of assault filed against Shane Michael Stanton, the student who tackled him.
In a public Facebook post, Adams said the decision came after “it was clear that my assault was not politically motivated in the way that we previously thought, nor was it committed by a Trump supporter.”
…
Stanton’s mother confirmed to The Columbus Dispatch on Tuesday evening that her son has Asperger Syndrome, a developmental condition on the higher-functioning end of the autism spectrum.
http://thelantern.com/2016/11/.....e-charges/
It’s easy to see how ‘froggy was wrong. There’s not much separating your average Nazi from your average, ballpark mentally ill Trump-opposing college student these days.
Which reminds me: Has the Fucking Moron been around lately?

How’s it looking in ’18 so far?
Less and less separates you from Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit, Goldy.
Almost 219 million are eligible to vote in this country..
Just over 200 million were registered for Nov 8, 2016
122 million voted for either Drumpf or Clinton – so far.
Final results are a couple weeks or so out.
Some people out there never give a second thought to what’s going on or can’t or believes it doesn’t matter.
@75,
100 million sheeple yearn for the leadership and protection that emanates from a High Energy Top Dog like Trump!

The majority of voters threw the lever against #CrookedHillary.
She’ll win a plurality. Not a majority.

But by and large they’re not cheering for any good Drumpf is going to do.
No, Drumpf will almost certainly not help the white working class or the urban poor. No matter how hard it tries.
But Drumpf shills will say it should get points for trying.

Nope.

Republican Real Americans aren’t expecting Our Leader Trump to do anything for us. We get along okay without any safe spaces, gubmint quotas, or socialist life rings. But we do expect to enjoy watching all you gimmedats and boat people struggle to stay afloat without them.
Nice to know the country will get along fine without a feckless wall at the border and bridges will collapse on his watch.
No money wasted on billion dollar plus military hardware boondoggles either.
But that tax cut is coming! Oh yeah. Will it be a $1000 check this time?
And you want to watch people you hate suffer. Nice fantasy. Thanks for playing.
The purge of Christie and his people was too freaking funny – a host of Christie cronies and hanger-ons.
Christie only prosecuted and humiliated Drumpf’s son-in-law’s father and threw him in the slammer for two years.
That purge was sweet payback – bait and switch. Dangled relevancy to the embarrassing hack Christie and then took it away when it was most unexpected.
Too funny to see. Now that drama has meant Drumpf has wasted 5 whole days in the transition. Off to a roaring start.
