scott adams met Trump today

2018-08-03 01:11:55 UTC  

Washington Post occasionally wakes up and posts something decent, and then goes back to scraping at the hole they've made in the barrel

2018-08-03 01:12:15 UTC  

There's a few sites like that actually. It's bizarre

2018-08-03 01:12:23 UTC  

also

2018-08-03 01:12:39 UTC  

such pettiness

2018-08-03 01:15:03 UTC  

Why are they so determined to go to war over an election?

2018-08-03 01:15:11 UTC  

looking into the reddit thread with ceddit. It appears most removed comments were calling out the mods for deleting other threads. And then they look random. Mostly hitting joke comments.

Here's a good deleted comment [+138]
Where did the other thread go?

Anyway, the NYT standing by this person reinforces that two things can be true imo-

Trump is a blowhard

It is totally understandable why rural whites flocked to him and believe him when he says that the media lies and hates them.

For another example, look at the contempt the VOX interviewer has for rural whites in this article:

"Fair enough. The title of your book, The Left Behind, rubbed me the wrong way. It seems to me that many of these people haven’t been left behind; they’ve chosen not to keep up. But the sense of victimization appears to overwhelm everything else."

They also seem to be hitting posts about a 'white backlash' of any sort or people celebrating her staying.

2018-08-03 01:15:46 UTC  

Interesting.

2018-08-03 01:16:34 UTC  

@Beemann because they can't dare to challenge each other. Because the base lives in a bubble.

I seriously think the Democratic party is afraid of their base.

2018-08-03 01:17:12 UTC  

A mere year ago you had College Democrats defending the College Republicans and arguing the Republican speakers should be allowed to speak and they should be allowed events without getting harrassed.

2018-08-03 01:17:20 UTC  

I feel like their prior advantage is fucking them a bit

2018-08-03 01:17:41 UTC  

Without fail, the College Dem leadership would be excoriated by their rank-and-file and the SJWs on campus and they'd be forced to backpedal.

2018-08-03 01:17:53 UTC  

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a similar dynamic in play with the left right now.

2018-08-03 01:18:18 UTC  

Republicans were split between multiple factions and then had to make compromises (or refused to, in some cases) while Dems just drifted toward the mean

2018-08-03 01:18:24 UTC  

They're collectively hyperventilating over Charlottesville and are desperately out-competing each other to oppose the Republicans.

2018-08-03 01:18:33 UTC  

But now neither party knows where the establishment base is

2018-08-03 01:18:53 UTC  

But Republicans know the other factions exist, and Dems just have to throw darts because they're so removed

2018-08-03 01:19:04 UTC  

At least that's the way it looks to an outsider

2018-08-03 01:19:07 UTC  

holy fuck i didn't know tucker interviewed tommy ?

2018-08-03 01:19:39 UTC  

It's a good example of why that format sucks.

2018-08-03 01:19:49 UTC  

He's about to start talking about attacks on his family "OOP. We're out of time."

2018-08-03 01:20:05 UTC  

Oh we're out of time. Oh well.

2018-08-03 01:20:09 UTC  

Bye everybody.

2018-08-03 01:20:17 UTC  

Story over.

2018-08-03 01:20:26 UTC  

@Scribblehatch you know that shit bothers me when tucker does that

2018-08-03 01:20:33 UTC  

It's not his fault.

2018-08-03 01:20:35 UTC  

i don't like it

2018-08-03 01:20:44 UTC  

i know it's not his fault but it's fucked up

2018-08-03 01:20:47 UTC  

But it's turbo-annoying all the same.

2018-08-03 01:20:48 UTC  

Yeah.

2018-08-03 01:21:13 UTC  

it's Disingenuous

2018-08-03 01:21:35 UTC  

...Eh?

2018-08-03 01:21:56 UTC

2018-08-03 01:21:58 UTC

2018-08-03 01:22:05 UTC

2018-08-03 01:22:18 UTC

2018-08-03 01:22:39 UTC
