At this point, nothing he says can be shocking anymore. The media is giving way too much attention. The more outrageous words come out of his foul mouth, the more galvanizing his base gets. He has nothing to lose and so much to gain. I have learned to ignore what he says and tweets. His words no longer get to me. I am shocked or mad. Nothing he says is unthinkable, unimaginable, and unspeakable. I won’t fall into his word trap anymore. I still love America and I still believe in our strong democracy. He will go down and out.

Masha Gessen:

To think that a madman could be running the world’s most powerful country, to think that the Commander-in-Chief would use Twitter to mouth off about whose nuclear button is bigger or to call himself a “very stable genius,” verges on the impossible. If the word “unthinkable” had a literal meaning, this would be it.

At this point, nothing about this president is unimaginable, unthinkable, and unspeakable. I have to change my view on American politics to keep me from going crazy.

David Remnick sums it up in one sentence:

The President of the United States has become a leading security threat to the United States.

In Cabinet meeting, Pence went above and beyond kissing Trump’s ass. He gave Trump an ass job. As much as I would love to see Trump impeached, I don’t think I would want to see this fuckface as a replacement.

New York Public Libraries:

To see who will be affected, simply walk into any New York City library branch. See the students who literally cannot do their homework without our computers. See the parents and caregivers who are learning English and applying for jobs online to improve their circumstances. See the higher education students, independent researchers, and scholars who need our databases and online collections to further scholarship. Imagine how frustrated they will be, how demoralized, that they can no longer access what they need.

Thank you for standing up to two fucking sexual predators. You have restored decency and common sense. You have also sent a message to these powerful creeps. They can not do anything they fucking want to young girls and women. We will continue this fight until the fucking predator in the White House is completely removed.

Jia Tolentino on Melania:

First as a model, then as the third wife of a billionaire, and now as a mostly mute First Lady, Melania Trump has spent much of her life in America as a visual object.

What a great opening sentence.

David Remnick writes in “The Weinstein Moment and the Trump Presidency”:

Breast groping, crotch grabbing, unwanted kisses on the mouth. This is the President of the United States.

It’s a damn shame.

Danica Roem who is a transgender has defeated Bob Marshall who referred to himself as a chief homophobe for the Virginia House of Delegates. This historic win is a proof that Virginia embraces diversity and inclusion. Straight, gay, transgender, black, white, Hispanic, Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Muslim and whoever you are, as long as you appreciate and respect diversity, you will be welcoming to Virginia. We have demonstrated that we can stand up to hatred and bigotry. I am proud to be a Virginian.

By electing Ralph Northam for governor, Virginia stands up to Trump. Ed Gillespie is a loser tonight and Trump has already thrown his ass under the bus. Sorry Ed, but you know the consequence when you sided with a hater who embraces white supremacists. Virginia is for lovers, not haters.
