Adam Baldwin isn’t related to the others.
I think Stephen Baldwin is Trump supporter though?
Irrelevant. He’s an awful human being, but I’d still take him over Donnie.
FB is showing me that the primary Trump supporter reaction is simply one of denial. Label it fake news and wrap oneself tight in that blanket of epistemic closure.

The trump supporters I’m seeing on Facebook are just doing the obvious deflection into bullshit:
“It’s no worse than what Clinton did, except for that she deliberately sold classified information to the highest bidder!”
For fuck’s sake.

Lots of people digging up old tweets from R’s demonstrating their bald faced hypocrisy netween Trump’s leak and those doggoned emails from Hillary. The whole lot of them need to be tossed into a pit of starving vipers.
Seriously? They are saying that, that she sold information? I haven’t even heard that charge before.
You know what? At this point I’d trade Hillary being charged as long as Trump is also charged. It would be worth it almost.

If I could kill the person who wrote that, with my mind, right now, I would do so without hesitation.
If that’s your friend, you should really pray for him. Perhaps that should be your response to everything they say.
“I’ll pray for you. God bless you though you don’t know the truth.”
(Actually, do not do this, it gets under their skin really quick.)

I’d say it and then actually pray for them, because they sure as hell need it.
I know dudes like Kevin Evans. They love that sort of argument. At the same time, they are none too happy with someone like Red Don being the CIC of the military.
Been saying for months: this is the blueprint. You know what to do.

We need Ossoff to win his race in Georgia. That would be a BIG wakeup call.
David Brooks – a guy who spent 8 years defending GW Bush – is having none of this nonsense in today’s Times:
We’ve got this perverse situation in which the vast analytic powers of the entire world are being spent trying to understand a guy whose thoughts are often just six fireflies beeping randomly in a jar.
Ouch.

The GOP’s decision to back Trump, despite his obvious gross incompetence, is embarassing and tragic.
When the floodgates finally break down, I expect to see a dramatic and almost instant abandonment of him, perhaps resulting in a quick impeachment. But I don’t know how long it’s going to take to get to that point.

Precisely why you should do it. Rub their noses in it.
I am laughing and nodding in agreement with David Brooks. What is going on?!
