So good to see Biden already bringing the country together with that coveted pro-segregation endorsement from NRO.

Not an uncommon sentiment, from what I’ve been hearing…

Well, cool! Trump 2020 then!
To be totally honest, I think Ol’ Joe’s just riding on sheer brand recognition right now, the way Jeb! did. A lot will change when the actual campaigning and debates start. I sincerely doubt he will be the frontrunner when it’s time to vote.

Sweet FSM, do I want you to be right. Biden as the Dem nominee is how you get another 4 years of a Short Fingered Vulgarian. I have grave doubts the country will survive to 2024.

I think black women are tired of coming to the rescue of white America and getting shit for it. It would be nice if white voters would get their head out of their collective asses and start voting to dismantle white supremacy.

Even speaking as a foreigner and a man, I think can I understand your frustration. But it’s unfortunately the burden of being a responsible adult: you can’t just let things go, no matter how satisfying it would be in the short run. (Sort of tangentially, I think that a lot of Trump’s appeal lies in that he gives an opportunity for his supporters to give up responsibilities and acting like an adult.)

Which is exactly why white Americans should step up, they need to be adults instead of children acting like others getting things like equal rights isn’t taking anything away from them.

Black women are the adults here…

I like her platform, but Harris is arguably in a better position to “get down to business” on gun control as a legislator than she would be as President. So why wait?

Yeah. I bet it’s endlessly frustrating.

I can imagine so.

Jimmy plays a game with the audience about all the white guys running for president (at 2:09)

Libertarian to the rescue??

“Even if Amash didn’t take much of the vote nationwide, if he overperformed in his home state, he could be depriving Trump of its 16 electoral votes, which would be a significant strike against Trump winning reelection. And it’s not difficult to see Amash’s more tea-party-oriented politics appealing to the limited number of disaffected Republicans in other states as well. Trump has pretty unified support in today’s GOP, but there are also signs that it’s somewhat soft. And given that as much as 56 percent of the country says they won’t vote for Trump, Trump cannot afford to have many would-be Republican voters peeled off by a third-party candidate.” -WaPo

Definitely super worth legitimizing Fox News.
