Open Thread Nov. 22: No Recipes
Here’s a shocker — Donald Trump supports Roy Moore. After days of silence on the matter, Trump must have figured out that he and ol’ Roy are attracted to the same thing — young girls (remember when Trump looked at a 12-year-old and said he’d be dating her in a few years?). Plus Trump loves to brag about his conquests — right, Billy Bush? — and he knows Moore will be all ears when he talks about walking into the beauty pageant dressing rooms. Yes, this is a match made in the holding pen for perps on Special Victims Unit.
Trump also got back to his favorite pastime, taunting black people on Twitter. He tweeted up a storm against La Var Ball, who has had the nerve to question exactly how much Trump had to do with getting those three UCLA freshmen freed from China. Personally, I’d pay folding money to find off if Trump knows how to dribble a basketball. I’d bet not.
Turns out John Conyers has been a member of the Roman Fingers Society for a while. His case was settled for cash but he did not acknowledge wrongdoing. The question a lot of people had was why the settlement was leaked to Mike Cernovich, an alt-right figure of ill repute. The answer might be found in a fake Russian Twitter account that claims to have been involved.
The hair-shirt-donning left has been re-examining the case of Bill Clinton, with New York Sen. Kristin Gillibrand staking out the position that he should have resigned. The Daily Beast’s Michael Tomasky doesn’t just say no, he says hell no to that notion.
The hair-shirt-donning left really is getting on my last nerve.
Today is the deeply saddening anniversary of the murder of President John F. Kennedy.
Speaking of jfk, knowing of his many extramarital affairs while in offfice I think all monuments to him should be removed
All were consensual, as far as we know.
Hey Arthur, fuck you.
Hahahahaha. He was a serial cheater who won the nomination with the assistance of his fathers connextions to organized crime and his Catholic platform. He is now lionized.
“He is now lionized.”
Not really true anymore. He was once lionized, but most of the biographies of the past 20 years have taken the shine off his star. He endures as a nostalgic symbol of a lost era of optimism.
LOL… commenter Mouse has expertly trolled Pandora at Blue Delaware.
Carper conspires with Cohn to shut Trump out of a phone call:
