Clickhole can be brilliant at times, they had a great Gamergate article a while back too.

Not sure where this goes…
Shame we can’t do that here.

To be fair only like 43% of Texans voted for this to not happen.
Seems they don’t really give a fuck either.
Mind you he called special sessions to vote on bathroom bills and unconstitutional abortion bills, but our state is fucked? Meh. Sounds like not our problem. Also the irony of a “rainy day fund” not being for literal rainy days is kind of funny.
“Don’t tread on me. Also how about the feds pay for everything for us.”
Yeah, the bizarre EPA thing happening right now is the AP released a scary story about the toxic waste sites flooded in Tx and the EPA not being there or actively monitoring. Then the official US EPA wrote a response to the AP calling them fake news and attacking the reporter, without disputing the facts (perhaps following Breitbart and others’ lead). Then the EPA deleted its response.
Yeah, he’s doing a Local Good cop, EPA Bad cop with checkbook routine.
2017 mad-libs theme:
“Republicans, who were almost universally critical of Obama for ***, had no clear proposal of their own.”
Actually, you should get with the times and make it a card for Cards Against Humanity.
all the good ones are taken
It just drives me crazy that conservatives would produce a Category 5 hurricane of horror if Trump were swapped with Hillary in that story. But now? Crickets.
In their minds, Hillary got millions for Clinton Foundation access, so it’s fair play.

I thought it was the fact that Trump was richer to begin with, so he wins? Winning?

Dozens of lobbyists, contractors and others who make their living influencing the government pay President Trump’s companies for membership in his private golf clubs, a status that can put them in close contact with the president, a USA TODAY investigation found.
Members of the clubs Trump has visited most often as president — in Florida, New Jersey and Virginia — include at least 50 executives whose companies hold federal contracts and 21 lobbyists and trade group officials. Two-thirds played on one of the 58 days the president was there, according to scores they posted online.
So business guys belong to expensive country clubs with other business guys. And, maybe they gain access to Trump from that membership.
That’s kinda how country clubs work in much of America. You know it’s not like these guys write a check every month straight to Donald J. Trump.
The fact they posted scores “online” means they have handicaps and are probably not just brand new golfers who joined to smooze with the Donald.
I think that USA Today is implying something here that may not exist.
Trump owns the clubs. Hasn’t divested. Interests conflicted.
