Please join us this evening as the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally convenes for conversation and good company over a cold one.
We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the back room of the pub. We start at 8:00pm.
Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, stop by another chapter near you.
I wonder if we’ll wake up on Jan. 21 to discover Trump has started wars against Greenland and Panama.
You get what you vote for, and Trump supporters voted for crazy, which makes me think they’re crazy, too.
It was crazy hatred for Trump that got him re-elected. All of the bullshit turned Trump into a sympathetic character, and voters responded to that turn of events.
It’s time to ditch Facebook. Now it’s just another “X”.

@2 It isn’t hate, it’s love of country, that turns thinking people off on Trump. Obviously you’re not a thinking person. It was support for Trump, not opposition to him, that got him re-elected. Even elementary school kids can figure that out, so why can’t you?
Pamela Anderson is so famous, she gets recognized everywhere she goes. She says once on a commercial flight a passenger recognized her, but thinking she was a Dixie Chick, tried to physically attack her and had to be handcuffed to a seat by the flight crew.

That probably happened back in the George W. Bush days, which is a long time ago. But it illustrates what we’ve all come to know: That conservatives are cavemen.
The educated classes rely on the rule of law to deal with such characters: Prosecute them, make them serve jail time, ban them forever from flying.
But even allowing for our strong belief in the rule of law, which Republicans obviously don’t believe in, there’s a secret desire to knock some sense into such people by smacking them upside the head with a tennis racket.
The other half of the Greenland story is that a few years ago Trump wanted to trade Puerto Rico for it.

In Trumpian America, Greenland’s strategic location is wanted, and Puerto Ricans are unwanted. (I wonder if he’ll try to revoke their citizenship and threaten to deport Puerto Ricans?)
The sooner
GreenlandPuerto Rico gets statehood, the better.This is why vigilantism has a bad reputation. (Also, read “The Oxbow Incident” or watch the movie.)

One of the countless dumb things rightwingers do is elevate vigilantes to hero status. This is what you get when people’s brains are in their underwear.
4)To them, only agreeing with Trump is Love of Country.
@4, @8:
You have been working to get Trump re-elected since November 8, 2016. You just weren’t smart enough to realize this.
@9 We didn’t vote for him. We didn’t donate to his campaign. He was elected by Musk’s $250,000,000 and dumbass Trumpers. They’re responsible for this, not us.
Remember, I’m the guy that creates no wars and brings peace to the World. As soon as the Gulf of America, and Greenland and Panama are annexed there will be great peace and do wonders for the current great stock market conditions!
Guys like me wear the MAGA hats and fly Trump flags just to piss you off because it feels to us like guys like you look down us for being undereducated, culturally illiterate, and prone to violent self-harm.
The irony is that consequent to that support we end up with worse schools, closed libraries, and overburdened ERs staffed by the kinds of people who scare us.
Jeff Bezos has agreed to pay Melania Trump $40 million dollars to produce a documentary film celebrating Amazon Inc.
@12 Many Trump voters thought they were getting lower egg prices and can’t find Greenland on a map. We won’t sit here and pretend their gullibility and ignorance don’t matter, but we still support democracy anyway, unlike Republicans and the liars at Fox News. Somebody has to, or you’ll lose your right to vote.
