Born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.
Trumps illiberalism is sadly a distinctly American liberalism. Likewise his corruption too is very American, but the more often we compare it to Putin’s or anyone else’s alleged corruption, the less likely we can come to terms with it and address the root causes in US society.

Did we really need to compare/contrast Carter w Trump based on marriages, contrasting lifestyle? If not, why not point out the criminal investigations, the lawsuits, the misogyny, the racism vs Carter’s more sincere approach and legacy? Maybe Egypt-Israel vs Abraham Accords? NYT gonna NYT it seems 🤷🏽‍♂️

Old hat. Republicans in Florida legislature immediately passed laws effectively undermining the initiative to restore voting rights to convicted felons. The question in both places is whether there were enough democrats in the legislatures to do anything about it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

It’s also a question of what else one is following and the posting activity of the media outlet. I have had to my regret unfollow a media outlet here b/c it dominated my feed as it posts virtually every article it writes.

Tom Cruise has his MI franchise, Liam Neeson gets to run around Europe searching for his wife or Albanians. Denzel - as accomplished as any actor - deserves his one-(older)-man army franchise. 👊🏽

Perhaps his polling errors can be explained by the fact that he misspells the candidates’ names?

Gotta respect his sincerity and transparency.

A certain first lady was also keen to promote healthy food. But the right wing echo chamber would have none of it. Perhaps it would have been different if she weren’t an Obama. 🤔
