He just gave up military cooperation with South Korea in return for North Korea "maybe trying to think about possibly looking into thinking about contemplating denuclearisation at an unspecified date in the future"


Oh wait...

Zero impulse control. The frightening thing is his staff is supposed to cover that, and they're lying doggo.

He's not my president. Which is nice.

He's making Queensland look very logical as a relocation choice.

I will say this, the Dems may get ahead for a short while by being "Not Trump" (extremely low bar), but to win in the longer term, they have to give their base what they want. Or at least honestly try to.

That would be democracy at its worst, pandering to those whose interests can only be served to the detriment of the greater good.

Democracy at its best Involves confusing the base as to make the base believe what is good for the whole is actually good for the short term selfish interests of the base as well, which is false at least half the time.

The reason why republicans are successful is it managed to enlist the technique of democracy at it best, but not the goals of democracy at its best,  to benefit itself in a way only democracy at its worst can.

Something nice about President Trump.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

Is that a countably null set or an uncountably null set?

Okay, I will go away now.

Well the base wants them to focus on healthcare and guns.

We have crises with both issues.

Other countries have had some sucesss after treating these issues with the seriousness they deserve.
