People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

I saw this on Saturday Night Live last night. It's from last month (I didn' see the episode), but it's pretty clever and shows what idiocy Trump and his followers are fomenting:

Not available here. But having seen more than sufficient idiocy from Trump and the Trumpanzees, I can live without it.

That was funny, BigRR! Not sure how I missed it first run but glad you posted it here.

I agree; I thought it was extremely clever, and really showed how stupid the Trump campaign leaders and Trump supporters are.

I just read an alarming piece this morning on how FOX is doubling down on insanity and purging the newsroom in response to the ratings drop off post insurrection, which the news side covered with the horror befitting the event.

FOX and ilk are a scourge on democracy, but I’m not sure how we fix the toxic environment it has created over the past couple decades. The Murdochs must be psychopaths to care so little for the impact of their legacy on society.

Just a reminder that everyone is welcome to join in my long-standing contempt and loathing for Rupert Murdoch (which now extends to his execrable spawn, Lachlan and James):

Oh, and speaking of "you" and "Faux Newz," Aus has a lot to answer for, having not suffocated Rupert Murdoch in his crib.

There will also be lunch with News Corp boss Rupert Murdoch
Hope she brought enough strychnine.

Alternatively, she could just choke him to death with her bare hands.

I am certain that stabbing Rupert Murdoch in the throat at their meeting would improve Ms. Gillard's polling immensely.

Rupert Murdoch
Again, Australia has a lot to answer for. If this isn't a casus belli, I don't know what is.
ETA, also too:
For all of the right-wing media's talk about the dangers posed by immigrants, "I think Rupert Murdoch is the most dangerous immigrant in America," longtime Republican strategist Stuart Stevens says. "He's a classic example of somebody who never assimilated American values. If he understands America, he profits off the appeal that he doesn't understand it."

It's not like they lacked the means having most of the worlds deadliest snakes, spiders, sea creatures, &c. And the worst drunks as well.

I think it's a case of contracting with the devil and getting a ripe old deal out of it.
