« Trump Is Right: CNN's Ratings Are Terrible | Main | McCabe Suspected Rosenstein Was Part of RUSSIA Plot to Fire Comey; Wrote His Own Memo About It, Which He (Of Course) Gave to Meuller »

Early Night Open Thread

Democrats spent years demanding higher taxes on the rich. Trump actually did that, by reducing the amount of state and local taxes millionaires could deduct from their federal taxable income.

And bam!, just like that, Democrats are scrambling to provide tax relief to these poor 1%-ers.

For some reason, conservatives think the media employs a double-standard about who gets fired and who gets endless second chances for controversial statements.

Julie Kelly writes a deliciously nasty kiss-off to her former friends in #TheResistance.

Hey, what's up. Long time no talk.

I think the last civil conversations we had occurred just days before November 8, 2016. You were supremely confident Hillary Clinton would win the presidential election; you voted for her with glee. As a lifelong Republican, I bit down hard and cast my vote for Donald Trump. Then the unimaginable happened. He won.


And you lost your fucking minds.

I knew you would take the loss hard--and personally--since all of you were super jacked-up to elect the first woman president. But I did not imagine you would become totally deranged, attacking anyone who voted for Trump or supported his presidency as a racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic Nazi-sympathizer.

The weirdness started on social media late on Election Night, as it became clear Hillary was going to lose. A few of you actually admitted that you were cradling your sleeping children, weeping, wondering what to tell your kindergartner the next morning about Trump’s victory. It continued over the next several days. Some of you seriously expressed fear about modern-day concentration camps. Despite living a privileged lifestyle, you were suddenly a casualty of the white patriarchy. Your daughters were future victims; your sons were predators-in-waiting. You threatened to leave Facebook because you could no longer enjoy the family photos or vacation posts from people who, once friends, became Literal Hitlers to you on November 8 because they voted for Donald Trump.


I admit I was a little hurt at first. The attacks against us Trump voters were so personal and so vicious that I did not think it could be sustained. I thought maybe you would regain your sanity after some turkey and egg nog.

But you did not. You got worse. And I went from sad to angry to where I am today: Amused.

Speaking of, MSNBC "Conservative" and chronic attention whore David French needs to be on TV:






The New York Times under-reported attendance at Trump's latest rally by 80%. Whoopsie-pie!

Speaking of, Trump's targeting Red State Democratic Senators.

Thanks to Instapundit, start-ups are scheming up a new age of supersonic commercial flights.

And from last week -- the FBI agent who interviewed Michael Flynn is prepared to testify that he found Flynn honest and forthcoming.

Okay, I'm having some rough days lately. Gonna take an early night.

Thanks so much to the cobloggers who kept the content flowing for three days over the long weekend. I actually did keep checking in to see if I needed to post -- but I never had to. In fact, I kinda looked for a reason to post, but the cobloggers were putting up enough stuff that there really wasn't even any space.

So thanks to them. I appreciated that time off so much.
