Trump: I’m going to ignore all your policy questions because I have no answers and instead blame immigrants for your problems and mine, and I’m going to do this over and over again. Jake Tapper: Thank you Mr. President.

this. that’s the most frustrating part of this debate. the mic cut is awesome. but why does no one step in when they aren’t answering a question, they’re using the time to spout nonsense?

They're starting with the economy because it's at the top of voters priorities but the problem is voters are kept so economically precarious they have to care more about the economy than the democracy

the space between “aging person who tells the same story a lot” and “aging person who can no longer safely have independence” is filled with anxious, heartbroken texts between family members.

i’ve reached such a stage of apathy with this country. i know it’s a dangerous way to feel, but i just can’t muster a single fuck about trump’s conviction. it doesn’t matter. his voters don’t have a red line. they 200% don’t care what he does.

this forever. when saving private ryan was all the rage, people would tell me that i *had* to see it…because its graphic nature would help me better understand the “horrors of war.” y’all, i don’t need to watch people being dismembered in HD to internalize that.

sure, if that was how they framed it. if the right is good at anything, it’s framing their messaging to appeal to fear and xenophobia.

I know that Trump is no friend of Gaza, no one disputes that. But we’re already 7 months into Netanyahu turning Gaza into a parking lot. It’s not a compelling argument to say Trump will be worse when I’ve seen video of two dead kids today. I’ve seen images of dead kids almost every day since Oct.

there is a very big stack of medical data that shows us when we don’t allow our bodies to process trauma or grief, it deeply increases the likelihood that those traumas or griefs are more likely to stick around physically or mentally.

Anyway they're annihilating an entire country, leveling or sniping the people in apartment blocks, schools, hospitals, babies in incubators, and aid trucks alike. If you're worried more about some teenagers reading theory in a tent you are a Nazi.
