    I think it essentially boils down to a Pascal's wager of sorts for Brisket and others like him. Maybe this is a blip that will revert to normal, in which case Brisket is overreacting. But, what if it isn't? I think his point is that the destruction of norms is a portent of things to come and that it will continue to get worse.

    Yeah, that’s almost a perfect “old man yells at cloud” speech, but he left out race, so only a B+.

    Except (and I am sure you don’t know this) the comics were explicitly told that no jokes about the orange baboon’s wealth were allowed. The snowflake made it a precondition of his appearance. I don’t recall if anyone did it anyway, but the stories behind that roast show what a child he is. As for the cyclone, he’s from fucking Iowa - what does he know about anything?

    Sick comeback, bro. Attack her routine (it was a little off the rails at times) but attacking her appearance is hilarious given the bridge trolls that currently “run” the country.

    Trump is so broke that his lawyer needs to pay off his mistresses. i thought she was fine. It’s a thankless job and mouth breathers like the geniuses above are always going to complain about “muh president” being attacked.

    It’s really unfortunate that there isn’t a kill shot here. It’s not like vmw doesn’t have a long history of being a fucktard.

    That Trump didn’t show up for this event (again) automatically makes his minions look like fools. The entire point of this is to get roasted, and if you can’t stand up like a man you don’t get to bitch about the results.

    Other than "nothing matters" I cannot see how Finding 32 isn't sufficient. As kevwun says, ineptitude isn't innocence and there was a clear expectation that a foreign "agent" was going to give them information to harm their opponent.

    That totally makes sense and that's fair - I guess I just expect pols to revert to their prior behavior once the spotlight is off.

    This sentence right here says everything wasn't fine. The stuff Mulvaney pulled the other day with the bankers was the garden variety corruption (albeit more explicit than normal). Money has always equalled access - that isn't new. This was your assertion - what has Trump done with regard to this? If you are really saying "the Clinton Foundation would have acted as pay-for-play" that is a textbook "but Hillary". If not, just clarify what he explicitly did because I don't see it.

    Maybe a Kool-Aid sipper, but not full-blown chugging. My point is more that I expect that garden variety corruption to revert to normal levels after Trump, not disappear. The fact that it's 100x worse now but in a different way isn't really a good thing about his presidency, is it? I don't see anything he has actively done to curtail the typical stuff. If this is all a "but Hillary" based on the Clinton Foundation, then my reply is misplaced and I am sorry.

    Talk about not sure if serious... Now, the foreign countries just funnel money directly to Trumpco via hotels, resorts, etc. Read about Trump Hotel DC, for example.

    Mattis. Also, we finally have an administration that can fully fill up the 24 hours news cycle.

    There was likely more to the story, which is why the cops were pointing her to the driver. I did love her passing out PBA cards (I assume) when she first walked up. Those things usually work wonders, so it shows how terrible she was.

    I don't have a lot of good things to say about Schumer, but good on him for this. It's not going to go anywhere, but he's doing what he can here.

    That was a bizarre interview. The part about walking down Broadway and becoming someone’s wife was hysterical - I thought her head was going to explode.

    No, they have been on tour since last September or so and the Austin show is the first show of this leg. I saw them at Voodoo fest In October.

    And the manager is gone...doesn't solve the main issue of the thread, but it completely aligns with their corporate culture.

    I think you left out cuck, but it was pretty close. responding to Brisket, obviously.
  20. VRHorn
    Why not done?

    Sure, if the norks were getting bombed by Britain and France and if the Norks attacked Japan or the South. They would never waste bombs on other norks. Assad is an active war criminal and Kim is a passive war criminal (like us, am I right?)

    Note to self - when I take over the world, don’t record conversations or appear on recorded conversations. this really is Stupid Watergate.

    Again, I was pretty onboard with this until the “what, we’re so innocent” bit. If you are a true isolationist, at least it’s an ethos, but you have to own the results. The Brits and the Frogs signed up for this, you are aligning yourself with Putin here.
  24. VRHorn
    Nope, we should not, in a vacuum. The issue is that Assad has no compunction about killing every Syrian he can. As with everything else in the ME, there are no right answers. That said, the moral argument for attacking Assad is pretty solid. the whole “no evidence” bit is something you haven’t fully answered. Either Assad has a history of gassing his people or he doesn’t- the preponderance of the evidence is that he did.

    It’s pretty remarkable the gymnastics happening here. MIB has been posting bullshit, carrying water for Trump, etc. for months and now he’s pissing on Trump for attacking Assad. One last time - Trump is human garbage and is likely trying to wag the dog. Assad is human garbage and deserves to die. I don’t give anyone credit in this situation, but all you do is hang onto conspiracies -why? I know we all thought we figured out the Illuminati when we were 18, but most of us grew up.
