Looks like Trump’ hysteresis ‘lag’ is ~48 hours or so. Based on that in ~48 hours from now he’ll be tweeting some nonsense that’ll cancel out his KKK, etc. denouncement.

May not work. His teeny baby hands could easily slip the rope.

What did I miss?
Undergirds. Isn’t that something those Russian prostitutes subjected him to?

Well. That pretty much comes close to blowing my ~45 hour hysteresis lag theory out of the water:

Thank you to those who flagged.
Attacking other posters is never permitted. Your posts will be eaten with prejudice, as will rules lawyering.
You are free to declare us an echo chamber, though if you are so disappointed in Boing Boing why are you taking the time to post here in the first place.
Be cool. This is a charged topic. Discuss, don’t accuse. Don’t disparage.

That is the ‘6 Million Dollar Question’, isn’t it?
Mark, Cory, Rob and all the rest of the authors are not hardly perfect, but I often have to wonder what is to be gained from bitching at them about their content ad nauseum - it’s not like they’re gonna change what they do and how they do it.
For instance, ‘it is known’ that even mentioning Rob’s horrific shoops only encourages him…

Thanks for cleaning up the mess. And I’d have thought this was obvious, but alas: the reason I personally bother mentioning it as opposed to erasing BoingBoing from my reading list is because I love BoingBoing and hold it to a high standard. Ditto the BBS, usually.

If that’s the case, then adhere to the ToS and CoC, instead of just white knighting when you see someone else who isn’t.
I don’t think anyone one here wants an ‘echo chamber,’ but it’s totally possible to disagree with others without needlessly acting like a disrespectful jerk.

Hell, timeliness would be a step up.
As usual he’s (intentionally) missing the point.

Good.
The sooner everyone realizes that the only side 45 is on is his own, the better.

I interpret that tweet as meaning they are making an excuse for him, not in any way turning against him.

It just show again what a weasely shithead the orange bastard is. Not only does he say this (too little, too late), not because he actually means it, but because he doesn´t want to be more unpopular with the mayority of the country for not saying it, no, it also shows how willing he is to thow his loyal fanbase, the racist, fascist, insecure, stupid white trash that liftet him as “one of them” (gooble gooble) into the white house, under the bus, just for the mere perspective of getting some brownie points.
The fascists are the scum of the earth, but at least they stand with their principles, how vile, disgusting and wrong they may be. The orange bastard is worse, as he has no principles, and if he had he would not care about them.

I don’t know anymore… I can’t tell if it’s my ears or his voice in how disingenuous this sounds. Maybe it’s just that he constantly shows that division he so hates every time he spits words on Twitter.

Me too. And of course the Cheeto In Chief did everything he could to convey the impression that it was just formality.
And oof, I just went to the daily stormer website, scary stuff. It’s so goofy and absurd that it almost reads like a far right Onion. Anyway here’s a quote from the article the tweet is referring to:
I knew Trump was eventually going to be like “meh, whatever.”
Which of course is dead on.

Eventually that will cease. Everyone has a line, even Nazis.
