@shortnormaltrip @bone_crudmeal @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW "Cult" is becoming a weasel word. It can be applied to almost any strong support.
Sanders supporters could be equally defined by their fervent devotion, though I think that is equally unfair.
Trump is just so often verifiably dishonest that his followers are forced to choose.
@bone_crudmeal @shortnormaltrip @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW Also he's a morally bankrupt, ethically reprehensible man in whom we have cause to know nothing but shame and contempt.
And his supporters are not necessarily stupid or gullible, they simply have surrendered themselves to him.
It's a moral failure that is embarrassing to see.
@shortnormaltrip @bone_crudmeal @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW Given that current judgment of the world is that America not only cannot be trusted but we are in fact not much better that China right now in terms of accuracy and transparency from the administration, I'd say we're once again reminded that Trump followers have abandoned reason.
@bone_crudmeal @shortnormaltrip @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW No, I think it's a pretty easy litmus test of, "Is the President accountable for his own falsehoods."
Given that he's accomplished almost nothing, and that only after having to be forced, I'd say it's a pretty easy test to grade.
And he's still not owed any air time.
@bone_crudmeal @shortnormaltrip @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW I'm willing to swallow pretty easily what doctors are telling us. Which is that going back to work before Easter is a great way to flood the nation with more sick people.
He's not the government. He's just a man with a job at which he's demonstrably failing.
He's owed nothing.
@bone_crudmeal @shortnormaltrip @Cornvelious_Dan @ColinLundstrom@KUOW We he literally said was a flood of misinformation. He can't be the nation's primary source of public interest if he's only accurate half the time.
People who believe him when he is demonstrably wrong, not just inaccurate but actively misleading, benefit nothing for their faith.
@partypizzalife @KUOW Trunp =/= Government.
It's their job to share public information which is what they are doing.
With the President so consistently making false and misleading statements, he ceases to become a source of public information.
He's not the government. He's just a man, failing.
@dreamfall6 It does seem to justify some stronger act of protest.
Personally I'm advocating water ballons made of condoms, but I can be persuaded to simply throw eggs at them.
@NickyB4Prez @DickNamico @174517ck @GrumpyOleDave@ianmmac10 Quite the opposite. We'll be doing everything possible to allow the world to get past Trump.
A world without him, his party, his fellow travelers, and really the whole concept of Conservativism in its current form is quite easy to see.
And, more importantly, it's necessary.
@JamesAJanisse @carebecc
You two have been very kind to chat with me on occasion. If you have any suggestions about a person who might be willing to talk business with me I'd be much obliged.
Things I care about other than politics:
ALL CALL!
Does you or anyone you know work in the Commercial Production business?
Specifically those who produce national advertising spots?
I need to learn about this part of the industry from someone so I could use some help.

The Democratic party is not here to work with a President or a party that is actively misleading the American people to serve their own interests and those of industries who have been soaking the public for years.
@AlanPearlstein@IvanTheK@SRuhle Under what possible conditions would it NOT be?
Under what circumstances is it reasonable for ANY administration to profit so directly from their own policies?
