The Seattle Chapter of Drinking liberally will meet this evening. Please join us for conversations over a drink.
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? Check out one of the other 200 chapters of Living Liberally, including nineteen in Washington state, three in Oregon and one in Idaho. Find, or go out and start, a chapter near you.
The Hillbillies want to depose the Queen!
After all. They have their limits.
White supremacy? Of course!
Advocating rape? He’s just being provocative!
Support for neo-fascisim? Maybe the trains will run on time!
Pedophilia? Wait. What?
“Tolerance” is after all not a suicide pact. Just remember that next time one of the toothless sister-fucking unfathomably ignorant hillbillies demands that you “tolerate” their bullshit.
Yeah, just keep using terms like “hillbilly” and “sister fucker” to describe the voters in place like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and you’ll help Trump get re-elected in 2020.
Maybe that’s what you want and are really a Republican conservative provocateur.
2,
No sale, hillbilly.
Enlightened, healthy, educated, tolerant, modern progressives are not about to fix up a room for you over our garage. You burned your own fucking house down. Now you have to live in the ashes.
Anybody who can read the data knows exactly who you are. And you will never vote for another candidate with a (D) after their name unless it’s either Joe Lieberman or Jim Webb. And that isn’t happening.
So go fuck yourself, when you can be bothered to climb off your sister.
Democrats are planning an all out effort of mayhem and disruption to undermine the results of the 2016 elections. They've put together a training handbook for protestors with detailed instructions to harass and intimidate. They are targeting Republican members of Congress for defeat in 2018.
The WSRP is shining a light on the Democrats' hypocrisy and we've posted their manual on our website. We want you to know what the American people are up against. To view the protesters' training handbook, click here.
The handbook is deceptively entitled "Indivisible," but the Democrats' plan is just the opposite – their modus operandi is dividing the American people. The handbook bears the names of former Democrat congressional staffers, but is clearly the work of hard core agitators who have taken Alinksy's "Rules for Radicals" to new levels of disruption against the democratic process.
This effort is a disrespectful slap in the face of the American people. Donald Trump is the duly-elected president. And the GOP members of our state's congressional delegation – Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Dave Reichert, Jaime Herrera Beutler, and Dan Newhouse – were all re-elected by huge margins, defeating Democrat candidates who supported Obamacare and the rest of the progressive agenda.

OBEY AND BOW DOWN TO THE PUSSY GRABBING PUTIN PUPPETS! WE TRADED OUR SOVEREIGN LIBERTY FOR RUSSIAN OIL LEASES. NOW YOU MUST AGREE WITH US!
You have to forgive Elijah. He grew up poor, probably in a trailer, probably with shitty parents, etc…..
See, he hates himself and his life. His self loathing and hatred shows itself in his constant, over the top hate-spew of people just like him…its a way to cover up who he is and to make himself look superior.
He’s an easy psych 201 class study.
People with a lot of self loathing often turn it outward towards people just like themselves.
Called it.
6,
Careful there, snowflake. You don’t want to negate your bullshit theory of the electorate now, do you?
All us guilty liberals are supposed to be feeling deep remorse for having forgotten the “Traditional American Working Man”. Your WSRP is working their sleazy tax cheating asses off every single day to drive home the idea that “liberals” are “elite” and “out of touch” and only care about the fat cat intellectual chattering classes.
Without the hillbillies you have no other option but to embrace White Supremacy. Is that really what you want?
Okay E., just keep on keepin’ on, and we’ll all see how it plays out.
You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. An old saying that still applies.
8,
which of course, assumes that one enjoys the company of flies.
It is well past time to stop pleading that Democrats should carve out safe spaces for ignorant, self-destructive, racist assholes to be comfortably conveyed into a future these same racist assholes deny.
You chose a corrupt, racist, incompetent, traitor who as you read this is selling our national security for
Ukranian Peace Plansoil leases. Whatever hopes or ambitions you may have held for him are dying rapidly before your eyes with every #alternativefact, every humiliating press conference, every leak revealing expanding corruption and deception, and every idiotic 3am tweet. Given how desperate the enthusiasm of Trailer Trump America was to defeat “The Bitch”, I don’t expect you to advance beyond the Kübler-Ross stage of denial for at least a decade. So be it. By then your Hillbilly Jesus will be dead. And Milo Yiannapolous will chair the RNC. We’ll see how that plays out too.“their modus operandi is dividing the American people.”
Unlike what has been happening over the last 8 years when Blackie was President.
You people are a bunch of Hypocrites. You divided – we will conquer!
Stick with Milo. He’s your man.

Yep….called it.
11,
just bear in mind precious snowflake precisely what it is you are yearning to defend:
“And you know what? I’m grateful for Father Michael. I wouldn’t give nearly such good head if it wasn’t for him.”
So where’s Hillbilly Jesus come to the rescue now? Republicans are plenty eager to defend “free speech” assailing Islam, racial minorities, women, trans-gendered, Jews, Latinos, journalists, intellectuals, and anybody who reads books with words instead of pictures.
Pro tip: after all this time, and all the excuses for “locker room talk”, drawing the line at child molestation does not make you principled. It makes you a prostitute.
12
Huh? What have I defended? Care to quote me?
Oh, thats right…..you just making shit up so you can complete the narrative.
Called it.
So, let’s see now. Milo after 24 whirlwind months as the dreamy spokesmodel of “young gun” conservatism: Social media banned; $250k book deal pulled; CPAC appearance canceled; Promo tour canceled; Fired from Breitbart; aaaand disavowed by his own carefully cultivated herd of perverted racist cowards.
Meanwhile Leslie Jones: 3 feature films in 2016, 1 in 2017 so far, year 4 as a cast member of SNL, plus two other guest roles on television, etc. All that and she’s fine.
There’s just gotta be a lesson in there somewhere.
13,
Your President called. Not to kvetch, but it seems you missed a few headstones in St. Louis the other night. He’s wondering if you can be a mensch and get back to that some time before the Sabbath.
After all, gotta “keep the skeer on ’em”.
Shalom.

A Word From the Chairman
Susan Sez:
As a mother, I thought the triumph of Donald J. Trump would be a precious moment for America, a time when we sent our children away to sing patriotic anthems and beat off the ethnic hordes menacing our borders.
But so many protests have happened since the inauguration, so many attempts from within to threaten all that Mr. Trump believes in.
Today the cult of extreme liberalism is spreading across our nation, and no one is safe from it—not you, not me, and certainly not our children, because this so-called “Resistance” is directly targeting the vulnerable with hardcore sex and marijuana and the allure of socialist revolution.
These degenerates gather on our nation’s darkened edges, cavorting in reckless animal abandon. The young and passionate are drawn to that flame of human desire. Shoulder to shoulder these ruffians stand. They chant wildly and sing raunchy songs. Some wave explicit sings. A heady musk emerges from the protest crowd, the lust for power and change.
Later, they channel that fury into a writhing sexual congress, men on men, women on women, threesomes, groups, furries, leather and Latins. Wine flows eternal. Moral decency is lost in a cloud of reefer smoke. And the sweat will drip down the hairy chest of an illegal named Manuel as he tongues deeper and deeper into our country’s hidden crevices and then mounts us, owns us, completely, utterly, undeniably violates us!
Each of us has to put forth a blind obedience to Trump Nation, whether in social settings or in the workplace, and to denounce those who flirt with that socialist dystopia. There’s no moral middle ground. Indifference is not an option. We want you to help us create a nuclear atmosphere for any hint of dissent. For the sake of our children, I implore each of you to be brutal in your opposition to the Resistance.
So, to my young friends out there: America can be great, but not when it’s overrun by unions and illegals and civil rights. Open your eyes to the national community President Trump is offering. See the fires and wars only he promises to bring! He will make America thrilling for white men again! Even the dull ones! So say yes to the coming purges! And when it comes to the Resistance, just say no!
Re: 14,
correction: Milo was not fired from Breitbart.
He resigned. So he could spend more time with other people’s children.
@2 I don’t see what we can offer to the people who voted for Trump. We don’t want their votes if we have to get them on their terms. If they come back to us, and vote for what we represent, that’s fine. If they don’t, and it turns out there are more of them than us, and it’s goodbye America, well shit happens and sometimes you can’t do anything about it. It’s their funeral as much as ours, in fact probably more so, because as the educated elite we’re better positioned than they are. Take me, for example. I don’t need Obamacare, a higher minimum wage, or a job. As a greedy capitalist, I’ll do just fine living on their low-wage labor. It isn’t fair to them, but I didn’t tell them to eat this shit sandwich. It is what it is, and I merely take the path of least resistance, like water flowing downhill. For example, I made $1800 in the stock market today without lifting a paw, while the toothless sister-fucking hillbillies made $58 apiece in their $7.25-an-hour jobs. They’re welcome to vote for Trump, against unions, etc. All I ask is that I get to be me than them.
@4 “They are targeting Republican members of Congress for defeat in 2018.”
Is this against the law?
@7 As a member of the fat cat intellectual chattering classes, I’ll probably do okay under this fascist regime. As I said in #20 above, it’s all about positioning yourself. I didn’t create this shitty state of affairs; I merely milk it.
Man. Never heard anyone in the construction industry use words like “Called It”. Sounds like you would say to your mommy, while she’s cleaning up after you in the basement,
Who the fuck is Susan Sez? Simon’s wife?
@8 Give it up. You hillbillies have nothing we want, and if you intend to douse yourselves with gasoline and light a match, we have no duty to talk you out of it.
@14 “There’s just gotta be a lesson in there somewhere.”
Which is of no use to people incapable of learning.

25,
as I see it the hillbillies have had more than 50 years to grow the fuck up about it. If they are still feeling “uncertain” about participating in a tolerant, egalitarian, multi-cultural, educated and informed modern free society then let them remain rooted in the 17th century living like animals, burning witches, and “pleasing” his lordship. I guess that’s why Jesus invented trailer parks.
Meanwhile the few true conservatives left out there will just have a tough choice. They either abandon their principles to follow these idiots on their glorious journey to authoritarian hell, go their own way and face irrelevancy, or let go of their orthodoxies and compromise with the left for a change.
9 & 25,
Um, I didn’t vote for Trump.
@29 Apparently that doesn’t stop you from telling us we should suck up to those who did. Personally I don’t care if they all go to hell in a hot air balloon.
29,
you’re free to make that claim. And I have no doubt you’ll have lots of company in the years ahead.
But whatever the fuck you did on November 8th of last year is irrelevant now. What matters is what you are doing today. Which as far as I can see is pleading the case for a dangerously terrified bunch of authoritarian reactionaries. And the last time we were graced with a concentrated dose of such pleading America followed Preznit Mountainbike McFlightsuit into a thoroughly meaningless and unnecessary war that our children our still dying over almost fifteen years later.
Again, no fucking sale.
So if you picture yourself as one of the “conscientious” true conservative “Never Trumpers” then like I said, you’ve got some tough choices ahead.
-Collaborate, and maybe for a couple of years you can see one or two of your most cherished political ideals advanced. But it comes at a significant cost. You’ll have to abandon forever any ambition for free markets, limited government, balanced budgets, individual responsibility, or moral authority. And watch in mute impotence as The Party of Lincoln becomes the party of self-promoting pussy grabbing kleptocratic pederasts.
-Splinter off as the loyal opposition by vocally opposing Trump, his Congressional authoritarian collaborators, and offering a clear, unambiguous “true” conservative alternative. Reverse the Tea Party tide and maybe elect a small handful of House members, win some local races and even a few Governorships. Limit the hillbilly damage and start rebuilding. Give up competing on a national level for the next thirty years.
-Compromise on some of your conservative orthodoxies and work with Democrats where you can. Yes, taxes on the very wealthy will go up. Yes, lots of special tax treatment for huge multi-national corporations will be eliminated. And you’ll have to accept that most Americans really and truly like the New Deal and Great Society social programs that you’ve sworn to destroy. But as the experience with Obamacare should have taught you if you could see through the fog bank of Birfer lunacy, you can get a lot of what you really want. Provided you can live in a world where Democrats get a lot of what they want (let’s face it – that’s always been the real hangup).
Thing is, were going to get it eventually anyway. We always have.
How do YOU two plan to defeat Trump in 2020 if you’re calling those people whose votes will be needed in 2020 “hillbillies?” Why would those voters vote for people who look down upon them?
You both need to develop some common sense.
@27 I don’t get the Susan Sez thing. Didn’t KellyAnn Cuntway write that Propaganda shit?
@ 20
For example, I made $1800 in the stock market today without lifting a paw…
Part of my Notadumbfuck Method to investing in stocks keeps me from having to check my own on a regular basis.
I simply log on to HA, read what Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit is bragging he made on any given day, apply a healthy multiplier to it, and I’m good.
It’s always good to review one’s investments.
That multiplier turns out to have widened, significantly, over the past several months.
The Notadumbfuck Method. Read what the Dumbfuck does and do the opposite.
It’s fast. It’s simple. Best of all, it’s more solid than a Treasury bond issued in the Obama era.
S&P 500 is up 0.6% today.
Today @ 20 Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit claims to have made $1,800 in the stock market.
$1,800/0.006 = $300,000 stock portfolio
What a fucking pitiful showing for a career as an attorney.
The future of work:
“Boeing (BA +1.7%) is taking steps to build satellites more quickly through new production practices that will rely more on 3-D printing and involve fewer workers, which eventually could transform its traditional way of turning out high-end commercial and military spacecraft, according to Paul Rusnock, who leads the company’s satellite business.”
http://seekingalpha.com/news/3.....email_link
Roger Rabbit Commentary: In other words, workers don’t have a future. Meanwhile, I’ve made $4,500 on my Boeing stock, and I didn’t even show up for work. Everyone needs to be a capitalist, because soon there will be no workers.
@35 I own a block of Unilever, idiot. Get back to us after you figure out what that means, and how it skews your calculation.
@ 37
And I own blocks of UL in four separate accounts, three of which I had forgotten about.
Like I wrote @ 34, the multiplier is widening. If this is Trump’s failure, The Apocalypse is gonna be a fucking jackpot.
Of course, the dumbfuck doctor (yes, it’s possible for a doctor to be a dumbfuck, as Boob proves over and over) completely misses the point, which is, how many jobs pay $1,800 a day? And I don’t even work for it. The stock market GIVES it to me! For doing nothing!
I’m simply pointing out what a racket capitalism is. That “work ethic” Republicans love to tout? Their ethic, your work. That’s how THAT works. Well, all I’m doing is horning in on that racket.
By the way, Boob, could you explain how many Treasuries you’d have to own to collect $1,800 a day of interest? The current rate on the 10-year is 2.442%. Even if we assume interest is paid only for days the stock market is open, you’d have to own $18,574,938.57 of 10-year Treasuries to make that happen. So, I think it’s reasonable to argue that what I made in the stock market today is equivalent to an $18.5 million Treasury portfolio.
@38 Well, goody for you, then your portfolios underperformed the averages today, too, didn’t they? Unless your Unilever holdings are the size of four fingernails.
@35 Using Boob’s math, a $300,000 portfolio earning 0.6% a day would return 151.2% a year:
300,000 x .006 x 252 days = 453,600/300,000 = 1.512 x 100 = 151.2%
I don’t know about Boob, but I’ll take a 150%/yr return any day, whether it’s on $1, $20, $100, $1,000, $300,000, or $1 million. So he can squawk and flap his wings and eat rats all he wants to, but a wiser owl than him says my $1,800 beats the wages Republicans want to pay. And I can manage to live on $1,800 a day, which is what really matters.
@ 39
how many jobs pay $1,800 a day?
How many jobs take that much per day out of your checking account when the market’s down, Dumbfuck?
@32 I don’t plan to beat Trump in 2020. I can’t fix stupid. So I’m planning to profit from his re-election instead, which means being a capitalist instead of a worker.
At some point, Trump’s plan to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. has to mean paying Chinese wages to American workers. Either that or make consumers pay a lot more for everything they buy by slapping tariffs on most of the goods sold in our country. And either way, Walmart is going to shed a lot of those lovely right-to-work jobs. So instead of working for Walmart at $7.25/hr, all those blue collars who voted for Trump will be working for ABC Plastics Molding Co. for $7.25/hr. At least under Obama they had Obamacare, but they won’t have that anymore, or their food stamps either. The latter will be redirected to buying more F-18s from Boeing.
(Full disclosure: Roger Rabbit owns Boeing stock and will personally profit from this clusterfuck, but as Roger Rabbit holds no public office, this is legal and he’s not responsible for this mess.)
@ 41
@35 Using Boob’s math, a $300,000 portfolio earning 0.6% a day would return 151.2% a year:
Well, in a Lake Wobegon scenario, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit, that would be the case, wouldn’t it?
Which is what we hear from you. Crow about your wins, stay quiet about your losses, and we should believe that you never lose.
Your excuse about Unilever? Weak-ass excuse. As if the S&P 500 didn’t have any losers to lower its overall gains today.
You crow about being a capitalist and not having to work. Ya know what work lets you do, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit? It lets you cover the risk of selling naked puts.
I’ll miss not working. Living off of dividends is boring.
@42 Ah, the old Greasy Pole argument. Climb 2 feet one day, slide back 1 foot the next day, etc. Can you do that math, too? I assume you can. If we didn’t come out ahead in this game, we wouldn’t play, would we doc? Dumbshit.
If we didn’t come out ahead in this game, we wouldn’t play, would we doc? Dumbshit.
Even the fat, slow kid gets picked to play sandlot ball.
One team loses, too.
@45 “Crow about your wins, stay quiet about your losses, and we should believe that you never lose.”
As I explained @46, if I weren’t coming out ahead on this calculus, I wouldn’t be in the game and I would need a job.
“Your excuse about Unilever? Weak-ass excuse. As if the S&P 500 didn’t have any losers to lower its overall gains today.”
Yeah, well, a -7.5% drop in Unilever caused my portfolio to underperform the averages today, which as it happens throws off your $300,000 calculation by quite a bit. I’ll bet your Unilever dropped -7.5% today, too, so you can’t possibly have overlooked this skewing effect unintentionally when you performed your little calculation.
“You crow about being a capitalist and not having to work.”
Not really. I’m mocking the capitalist system and bemoaning the lack of reward for honest labor under that system for the workers who produce ALL of the wealth. What I’m really saying is that I shouldn’t be getting away with this, because unlike you, I have a conscience.
“Ya know what work lets you do, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit? It lets you cover the risk of selling naked puts.”
To each his own. If you want to hold down a job for the purpose of putting money in other people’s pockets, that’s your business.
“I’ll miss not working.”
Going back to work? Wow, that didn’t take long. Fortunately for me, my personal money management is better than yours. Also, I don’t screw around with naked puts.
“Living off of dividends is boring.”
It certainly is. No commuter traffic jams, no bosses yelling at you, no coworkers stabbing you in the back, no customers getting in your face. I’m fucking bored to death, which is perfect for me, being the fat and lazy rabbit that I am. If you crave adventure, send me your address, and I’ll send you brochures on Mt. Everest climbs and Nile crocodile hunts, or I can line you up with a mercenary gig in a remote country.

@47 “One team loses, too.”
Well, I suppose so, if you’re screwing around with naked puts. Your loss is someone else’s gain.
However, the fact someone else made $1 million in the stock market today doesn’t mean I “lost” by making only $1,800 on the same day. I came out ahead, too, simply not by as much. If you want to look at this as “losing,” then I’m willing to “lose” every day!
The real losers, in case you haven’t noticed, are the shmucks making $10 an hour without benefits because they voted out their union and voted in the GOP’s anti-worker agenda. You know who I mean, the people creating wealth for capitalist leeches like you and me.
See how this works?
I weigh in, and in little more than an hour 34 spews becomes 50.
Confidential to Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit:
You’re not wealthy, nor a capitalist, until you learn how not to wail, twice @ 38, 48 in a day, about how one stock dragged down your daily return.
One stock in one day should not be noticeable. That’s the point of diversification.
Your daily return should not be noticeable. That’s the secret of wealth.
Here endeth the lesson. Fool.
32,
you need to look at the numbers more carefully.
Make 2008 a four way race with the same turnout demos and John McCain ends up cleaning up after Mountainbike McFlightsuit instead of the “Kenyan-Hawaiian Exotic Usurper. Your Hillbilly Jesus is well on his way to defeating himself. So unless you think moral midgets like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are preparing a primary defeat for Preznit Bumblefuck he’s your horse in 2020. Next toss in the fact that the mainstream media including FAUX News will no longer give equal time to #AlternativeFacts.
I like Democrats chances in a two way against a guy who sold the 2016 election for oil leases, spends $3 million taxpayer dollars every weekend to avoid feeling lonely, and appears utterly incapable of expanding the base. Won’t come easy. But I figure the Dems start from about where things were left on Nov. 9th. Which in case you didn’t notice came down to about 70,000 votes spread out over a few dozen counties. That’s just about how many people spent Monday yelling at Republicans in town halls.
@52 “until you learn how not to wail … about how one stock dragged down your daily return”
Unilever was up 14% on Friday, down 7.5% today, so that’s up 6.5% in 4 days, which is almost a 600% annual return, and you think I’m wailing? Are you drunk or high on drugs?
@53 Not to be overlooked is that he’s already pissed off nearly every female and minority voter in the USA. I won’t say I like our chances in 2020 at his point — it’s too early to tell. The bottom line is Trump promised an economic miracle, and if he doesn’t deliver, about half of his voters could prove to be quite fickle.
If history is any guide, like other new presidents, he has a window of a few months to get his main accomplishments done. But the biggest pieces of his agenda are in danger of going nowhere because of all the controversies bogging him down.
The D.C. chatter now is that “tax reform” won’t get done this year, and if it doesn’t, the stock market’s “Trump rally” will collapse, and then – boom – before he knows it, the midterms are just around the corner, and absolutely nothing will get done because all the congressmen will be busy running for re-election.
And then, if the midterms put the Democrats back in power because he didn’t get anything done in his first year, that will shut him down for the next two years, and he’ll have to run for re-election in 2020 on a record as a failed president.
That is, if he’s still around. He’s 70, and lots of people with stressful jobs aren’t still working at 74. I don’t get the impression he’s having fun.
“What a fucking pitiful showing for a career as an attorney.”
And that idiot Dr. Jonas Salk failed to score big on his polio vaccine. No brilliant Pharma-bro was he. And that fool of fools, Dr. Albert Schweitzer, wasted years of his life in Africa making a pitiful showing for himself when he could have been making the big bucks.
Your values fucking suck, doctor. Probably explains why you became a fucking traitor.
@56 On time of that, we don’t actually know whether Boob has a farthing to his name. Attorneys meet lots of bankrupt doctors. You can have all the income in the world, but if you do a shitty job of managing it, then it doesn’t mean a damn thing. I’ll bet I don’t have his expenses.
I weigh in, and in little more than an hour 34 spews becomes 50.
There’s nothing magic about that. Making bizarrely contrafactual personal attacks on a prolific and pedantic commenter will have that effect.
All you’re really doing is demonstrating there’s an area of knowledge with which you’re less familiar than you are with politics.
Hey, that is an accomplishment!
57,
any way you slice it most doctors get a raw deal financially.
Eight years of school followed by 5 to 7 years of advanced clinical training where they work 80 hours a week and get paid no better than janitors. At 35 they wake up and they are just getting started. The same people on Wall Street or Silicon Valley are Senior V.P.s at 35 looking to cash out and form a hedge fund or a v.c. partnership.
It’s a shame he didn’t do it “for the people”. Because if he did it for the money he got screwed hard.
@ 57
I bet you never had my tax bill.
@60 A Republican who pays taxes? Hahaha, that’s a good one …
@ 18, 20, 32 etc.
He cannot read a single word. He is literally, completely illiterate. He will not run in 2020, because he won’t even be in office to run. He’s morbidly obese, he’s lived a life of abject luxury and sloth, he has never had to actually do any work as he has never had anything resembling a job. This Job he now apparently holds will either kill him or destroy him utterly. He does not have the physical strength nor the psychological wherewithal or the intelligence to support this sort of position.
If he is still in office in 2018 I’ll eat my hat.
A Job being defined as, a place where one is required to show up every day, perform acts of labor or decision-making that complete or compliment tasks set by other people. Donald Trump has never once had to do any of that in his entire life. He hires people to hire people that make decisions in his favor and make him money. That is all he cares about. This relieves him of any responsibility for his own decisions, it indemnifies him from the consequences of those decisions, and permits him to remain aloof in the decision-making process while still making enough to support his lifestyle of pure luxury and absolute protection from the Law no matter what he does.
He is the first President in the history of this country that cannot read a single word, does not care to, and doesn’t give a rats ass about what the people around him put down on paper because he can hire people to hire people to manage the people that read things and make the decisions for him. When he himself is required to make a decision, he merely has to make a phone call to the person he knows is in the right position to advise him on what that decision should be and runs with that. He knows his lawyers will protect him, he knows the Attorney’s General of the various States where he has some financial interest will protect him by refusing to look too hard at what he’s doing because he has them all in his pocket. He’s spent his entire life manipulating and buying people, and when someone won’t be bought, he replaces them with someone who can. He has never once at any time in his life, ever been subjected to the Law.
He is DONALD TRUMP. Dumb as a STUMP. But he has money, and money is enough.
Speaking of precious snowflakes, I give you the WSRP.
