MAGA are the high-flying Globetrotters posterizing everyone on the court. The Democratic professional class — politicians, pundits, think tankers, and operatives — are the Washington Generals, paid a lot of money to be pantsed.

  1. It’s 7. One of whom has apparently issued a mea culpa for all the nothing that’s worth.

Sure but around here the republicans can’t get arrested. 100% of Rs support fascism, 2% of Dems do and what’s everyone frothing about?

Yeah. It gets old especially after fucking up the chance we had to avoid all this.
