Ninety percent of the time. It takes very little to govern good people.Very little.And bad people cant be governed at all. Or if they could I never heard of it.

@chucktodd Wonder how you covered this “serious issue” during the Obama and Biden admin?

@chucktodd Gee, way to step out there Chuck. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

A note to my friends who still back Trump:

I am not here to dunk on you. I am writing because you have a working brain, and this story insults it.

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool got a $14 million paint job. Shortly thereafter the water turned green and the new “American flag blue” coating started peeling off the bottom in sheets. Trump says vandals did it. He claims, without evidence, that someone took a knife and cut a 300-foot slit, a number that grew to 350 feet while he was still talking.

Back on May 4, Trump bragged about that same coating and said, if you had a knife, you could not even cut it, so strong, like powerful rubber. He cannot have it both ways.

And the green water?

A George Mason scientist tested it and found ordinary, non-toxic algae, the kind that blooms in any shallow sunny pool. To fight it, crews dumped hydrogen peroxide into the water.

Hydrogen peroxide is also a paint stripper.

That, not sabotage or vandalism, is the obvious reason the paint came off. They wrecked their own paint job, then blamed phantom vandals for it.

The lone "vandal" they paraded is a 67-year-old Olympian who touched a flap of paint already peeling on its own.

Here is the thing. If they will look you in the eye and lie about something this small, something you can see with your own eyes, ask yourself what else they are lying to you about.

Again, you have a working brain. People like Karoline Leavitt are counting on you to stay loyal instead of exercising independent thought.

Prove them wrong.

Today it’s the reflecting pool next it’s polling places. Armed, uniformed military everywhere. The kind of stuff republicans pre-Trump would have lost their shit over.

John Oliver exposes Trump for portraying the JCPOA payment to Iran as a giveaway when it was a repayment of a preexisting debt, while simultaneously supporting a deal that gives Iran $300 billion.

"If Iran called Obama a stupid son of a bitch for letting them get $1.7 billion, I think we're about to find out what the Persian word is for someone 300 times dumber than that."

Reflecting Pool story:

Under Obama, responsible people carefully studied the problem, sought best solutions - and failed.

Under Trump, irresponsible people imposed a hasty solution that enriched inept cronies - and failed even more spectacularly.
