This is the earliest I have woken up since March.

Amy Klobuchar is such a cornball.

Lol they could've gotten literally any celebrity in the country and they chose Lady Gaga.

Mike Pence screams "Dobby is a free elf"

What's wrong with Lady Gaga? She's an awesome performer and singer.

Not as bad as Jennifer Lopez, I'll grant you that.

New president, new username!

4Chan is saying that the Deep State used advanced technology to swap Biden and Trump's faces like in that Nic Cage movie. So when Biden is being inaugurated, it's really Trump. And when Trump goes on trial for his crimes, it's really Biden.

"Let us unite in prayer" is such a uniquely Christian type of ignorance.

Can Atlas go one day without becoming completely unhinged over Harris, even on the day she broke a major barrier for women?

Maybe we'll be able to do that on the same day that her supporters can give us a reason to like her aside from the fact that she's a woman.

She's smart, likeable, and good on policy. What more do you want?

Good on policy? When she actually takes a definite stance (which isn't often), it's usually horrible, as her needlessly cruel record as DA shows. As for "likeable"... you guys need to wise up on this soon before you make the mistake of nominating her in 2024.

Anyone who voted for Trump because of "economic anxiety" is a f---ing moron.  Trump was an idiot blowhard with absolutely no economic knowledge/experience and zero interest in changing that.  You might as well elect a baboon for president because it has "they took our jerbs" shaved on its chest.

That said, I've never believed the "economic anxiety" thing.  I always felt that Trump's election was by and large a cultural phenomenon.  People really learned to hate Hillary.  People really learned to think Trump was quirky and interesting and "hey let's give him a chance."  People really bought into all these lies and conspiracy theories propagated on the internet by the extremists on both sides.

Also, I guarantee you that even if Biden walks on water and enacts his entire agenda, there will still be plenty of people who run around saying he got nothing done.  Or people who misrepresent what he did to blame all the problems in the world on him.  Or people who just constantly move the goalposts to say he "didn't do enough."  Or people who highlight the handful of bad things that happened under his presidency, ignore all the good things, and use that to declare him evil.  They're dishonest actors and their opinions shouldn't matter.  They should also be degraded regularly for being assholes who poison the public discourse.  I'm talking people like Glenn Greenwald, or Briahna Joy Gray, or the CHAZ morons who were wandering around my neighborhood of Capitol Hill in Seattle last night looking for people celebrating things fundamentally changing so they could try to ruin our days with the "nothing will fundamentally change" Biden quote.  Or the sorry Bernout son-of-a-bitch behind that "Has Biden Done Anything Yet" Twitter account.

One of the areas trump did a really good job in was economic policy

One of the areas trump did a really good job one of the worst jobs in was economic policy

Uh no , Trump economic policies when it came to taxes and regulations where great and if you want to blame him for the recession then you have to give him credit for the recovery which was much better than the recovery after the Great Recession

What recovery? Trump is leaving office with a net loss of jobs.
