Trump Voters 'Stunned' to Learn the Horrible Things He Said He'd Do Are Horrible for Them, Too


Read HERE.

My parents raised me right, so I have compassion for people of all walks of life. So it's ironic that having the candidate they think is "no worse" than any politician win is what has enabled me -- at age 49! -- to abandon empathy for nearly half the country. (It would seem like it's a relief, only my concern for the other half has quadrupled.) My brothers, sister-in-law, boyfriend and I have been keeping a HA HA HA File for the various times people were horrified to find out that Donald Trump was going to do something that went precisely against their own interests and desires -- all of which was merely stuff he promised to do yet they voted for him anyway. While people voting against their own interests has been going on since the Republican Party brilliantly brainwashed half the country, there's something particularly satisfying about some of these examples, as this time they were duped by someone who pandered to their racist and xenophobic tendencies but were too stupid to realize where they would get them! Send examples to me HERE.

Did some queen steal Tom Brady's sweaty jersey?


I certainly hope they caught the right guy here. We watched a "48 Hours" over the weekend where two black men spent more than 20 years in prison for a gang rape they were not involved in. Even though DNA exonerated them, the lead investigator still believes they're guilty -- and thinks he's not racist because he hasn't used the n-word "in years." 


Travel ban looms as landmark case. The Times analyzes it HERE. (Hint: the "favoring" Christians bit could be what bites the "president" in the ass.)


How soon before he starts trying to clean house in the judiciary? 


FYI: It's "presidential" because he said it.

Trust me, Arizona: Tucson's the one that would be better off without all of you knuckle-draggers.
