What?!! I never would have guessed.
We’re deep in the ‘Fat Elvis’ stage
It would be hilarious if he dies on his golden shitter with a half eaten cheeseburger hanging out of his mouth.
…and his top secret toilet reading scattered all across the bathroom.
Lol he didn’t read that stuff, he had staffers make up single-page summaries that he would refuse to read unless they peppered in his name and little compliments about him into the summary. Very possibly the next (and in that case, likely last) President of the United States.
I really really wish I could say that was a joke…
Like giving a toddler a fucking kids menu and crayons at a restaurant.
Jesus fucking Christ, America, this shit is so embarrassing. I’d say we deserve the fascist hellhole we’re creating, but I’ve got young nieces and nephews, and they don’t deserve to be born into this shit.
I’m with you. I’m trying to stay positive about the future. We have made some progress fixing what they fucked up last time around but it seems like every step forward we take, they pull us back 1.5. I’m trying to not grow into the cynical old man that some have become (I’ll be 43 in a few months, not really old I know) but it’s getting harder to see a future without a theocratic dictator in charge of this country. That’s what they want and they said as much at cpac.
Our only hope in the short term is that they have pissed off enough young voters (who usually don’t vote) that we keep our current adults running things and add enough to actually make some shit happen.
If trump (or even haley) wins this year, this will usher in our first dictator. It won’t be trump but it will definitely be whoever they install after him (or her) or the ones after that.
My real fear (and I don’t actually fear much) is that if trump wins again, the left despite having an actual majority, will never hold power again without an actual civil war.
My only solace is that conservatives are generally stupid. Even their most intelligent “thought leaders” are charlatans for the most part, and their smartest (relatively speaking, of course) politicians are all hubristic narcissists.
They’ll toe the line just right for some time, get cocky and do something so outrageous that turns the slow boiling frog pot into an instant rolling boil causing them to jump the fuck out. But that could take 30 years, who knows.
Despite that, they have done and continue to do serious damage. First abortion (really women’s health care), now in Alabama and likely others, embryos are considered children.
I will never vote for a republican over a dem but holy fuck, the dnc and the dems need to get their shit together and start fighting back and stop appeasing the terrorists.
There is no god so this won’t happen

When you can’t do your normal morning line off a hooker’s ass cause you’re being political and shit.

He’s like Hitler in more ways than one.
At least Hitler liked dogs.
Trump tweeting 300 times between 3 and 6 AM wasn’t evidence enough?
I just want to note that they’re referring to modafinil/Provigil as a controlled substance and a stimulant. It’s technically a controlled substance, but it’s Schedule IV (low priority, low chance of abuse) whereas Adderall is Schedule II. It’s also not a stimulant, but some people would say it’s better because it doesn’t have the teeth-grindy, methy feeling that many stimulants do. Modafinil “promotes wakefulness” but doesn’t prevent sleep. So you can imagine people taking it to stay awake for long hours working, but they won’t be pacing around or talking rapidly like with some stimulants.
The medical unit was still irresponsible in prescribing meds without proper record-keeping and evaluation, but I wanted to clarify about modafinil specifically.
Marijuana is a schedule 1 drug and therefore “more dangerous and prone to abuse” than fucking prescreption meth. I’m not going to put much weight into drug classifications written largely by companies that stand to profit from their own and their competition’s standing.
I’m not arguing that the drug schedules are legitimate. Clearly having weed and heroin in the same category is ludicrous. I’m arguing that the authors use of “controlled substances” is technically true but a little dramatic as modafinil is schedule IV. I’ve been prescribed both modafinil and Adderall, and I can say that modafinil does not act or feel like a stimulant, and it’s not habit-forming.
Hey, remember the last right-wing fascists that was really into amphetamines? Europe sure does remember.
I didn’t know The Queen was a crank fiend.
She was definitely on “E”[arl Grey tea]…
As one former senior administration official puts it: “You try working for him and not chasing pills with alcohol.”
Everyone’s joking about “big surprise” but it’s helpful to have documentation of any kind rather than suspicion. There are also probably plenty of people who are less extremely online who didn’t make the connection, and now here’s an established journalistic outlet doing so.
Ronnie Jackson was also the main White house physician for the last few years of the Obama administration. It would be interesting to compare the receipts from that time vs. the Trump administration.
I saw it in this documentary, I wouldn’t want to watch any more series though.
Good thing they had all that Xanax to help with the anxiety caused by the treason and shitty decision-making, otherwise they’d have to deal with it like the rest of us.
Hey lookit! Just like the nazi’s! Yall know the Nazi’s were tweakin 24/7 dontcha?
