Presidentress

scholarly and irreverent discourse about presidents, past and present (but mostly past)

[Presidentress @MsPresidentress]

No need for popcorn gifs or tea-drinking Kermits. For the rest of the Trump administration, Richard Nixon has us covered.

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

Oprah's about to tell us there's a democracy under our seat

[Janey Godley @JaneyGodley]

No president of America has ever given birth - I don’t understand why it’s suddenly an issue

[🐉 Seb of the Stormlands 🐉 @Schroyers]

Okay guys we gotta get Kamala in office. The Hall of Presidents is such a sausage fest.

[Ben Jones @BW_Jones]

This will be the first Presidential election since 1976 to not have a Biden, Bush, or Clinton on the ticket.

[Presidentress @MsPresidentress]

“Lower the temperature and unite the country.”

I just can’t fucking believe this asshole. He voted to overturn the election AFTER the attack on the Capitol.

Josh Hawley Condemns Pro-Trump Rioters For Upstaging His Own Theatrics https://t.co/1fDHKBJurI

[Sean Casten @SeanCasten]

Under Hawley's logic, every despot in history, from Hitler to Stalin to Bin Laden is guilty of nothing more than bad ideas; he would have us believe that the true responsibility lies with the soldiers and terrorists they inspired.

[Brian Beutler @brianbeutler]
