I used to be a movie critic for a teen girl magazine, so clearly you've heard of me.

Jalen Brunson took $100M out of his own pockets so the New York Knicks could re-distribute the wealth and sign critical talent needed to win a championship.

Like it or not, socialism already winning in NYC.

It’s impossible to overstate how fucking stupid the United States looks on the world stage right now.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @alloughery And there you go, dropping “retarded” again.

God, you’re pathetic

[(((Harry Enten))) @ForecasterEnten]

The big problem with these UFC fights for Trump is that they reinforce the idea that he's is out of touch with Americans.

Just 16% say these fights are appropriate. Even just 31% of the GOP do.

This comes as 60% of voters & 80% of indies say the White House is out of touch.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump You make me deeply sad.

I used to think so much better of you, but you aren’t just conservative: you don’t have standards. You don’t think anything matters. That’s sad.

I can’t imagine what it must be like to assume nothing has consequences.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump If the White House holds itself to the same standards of entry as the local racetrack or parking lot, lowers itself from a place of dignified work to a theme park, then why should any ally treat the people who work there with greater respect?

Symbolism matters.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump It means that every time Trump promises that someone else is paying, they aren’t, we are.

Every. Single. Time.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Basic literacy is not paranoia.

You’re an educated person.
You represent the law.

If you were an incurious illiterate with no knowledge of how anything works, I’d just pity you for how actively obtuse you are for the joy of pissing people off.

But you aren’t.
Be better, man

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Sure sure, just like Mexico paid for the wall and donors are paying for the ballroom

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Do you realize how naive you are?

Jesus, you embarrass me

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Diplomacy, not democracy.

Diplomacy is the act of negotiating and maintaining power without violence.

MMA is violence as a sport.

I love fun. It’s good to have fun.

It’s great when that fun doesn’t cost us $60M in taxpayer dollars while making our allies laugh at us

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump That logic, again, is the problems.

If our allies don’t take us seriously, they won’t work with us.

If our enemies think we’re insecure clowns, that puts lives in danger

If our debt holders think we’re pathetic children, they’ll increase their rates.

This is real.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump The event is the basest performance of masculinity imaginable.

I like MMA, but it fundamentally represents the opposite of diplomacy.

Ring girls in bikinis and dirt bike jumps at the White House is embarrassing because it shows our government thinks very little of itself.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump That the White House matters.

That the way America represents itself matters.

You may think that we’re the biggest game in town and therefore everybody else can eat shit and deal with what we do, but events like this affect how the world treats us.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump We all represent more than ourselves.

To show no respect for anything you represent, to show no respect for others who came before you who fought and died for the rights you defame, to act like careless asshole children, is pathetic.

It doesn’t make you look strong.
It’s sad.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump The argument that nothing matters is the problem.

Would you hang out with a neighbor whose favorite game is watching their kids shit on the lawn?

Would you date a girl who spits on the floor of the restaurant?

Would you lend money to a colleague who keeps keying your car?

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Sometimes I genuinely don’t know if you’re just being a troll. If you aren’t, if you truly mean that, my respect for you just plummeted. Have some dignity, man.

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump …do you not find using the Honor Guard to introduce MMA fighters and having dirt bikes doing jumps on the White House lawn embarrassing and disrespectful to our country?

[Hankla @Hankla]

@toellsnemesis @doggintrump Because I think this event is beyond embarrassing for America. I think it’s right out of Idiocracy. I think it’s not just crass, it’s shameful and pathetic.

I’d rather my country not be represented by the worst we have to offer.

[Catholic Sat @CatholicSat]

This is the reason the Knicks are NBA Champions. Spike Lee knew what he was doing.
