Yean Quayle told Pence to do his job and perform his Constitutional duty on January 7th. I alawys thought of Danny Boy as a lightweight in over his head BUT he did save our democracy. He is one of those footnotes you read and go, "How come this isn't the entire book?"
I can’t stand the cat, but I sure as heck am glad he gave Pence solid advice. There is a long list of folks that wouldn’t have.
I get an impression of a policy wonk trying to act like a populist. He's running a yard sale and all he has in stock is deplorable baskets.
I accepted the binary nature of our winner take all system of government. One party or the other is the choice we will have, for a while, until we dump both parties as unnecessary bureaucracy. I see my interests temporarily aligning with Pubs more than Dems. Both parties are still full of people with all the crap they bring to politics, the greed, petty grudges, ambition, bigotry, etc. The MAGA dream of restoring us to a 1950s level of prosperity is probably out of reach, so more livable for most people is my realistic best case scenario.
Even more amazing, Doug Emhoff's former wife issued a statement praising Kamala Harris for being a good step-mom.
MAGAets are such terrible comedians
The basics: In the 1950s, a high school grad could get a job that paid enough for a house, car, and family. One income, no college or other professional training, bills paid. Such a family today would be homeless. There are more toys and distractions now, but also more homelessness, poverty, college grads with unpayable debt killing themselves, etc.
A few more days to admit he made some rookie mistakes, apologize, and get his wife to say he's a wonderful man, etc. He's a young guy in politics. Age is a big issue this year.
Oh jesus. Never doubt America for comedy.
