Trump's America

In Trump's America, 'pizzagate' could be the new normal
I was home with my family Sunday afternoon when an email arrived from a reader with a proposal. He wanted to lynch me.
“Rope, Tree, Journalist,” the man wrote. “Some assembly required.” To this slogan, made popular by T-shirts Donald Trump supporters wore at his rallies, my would-be hangman added his offer: “I will assemble for you.”

Jews Are Not White?
When Stephen Bannon called his website, Breitbart, the “platform for the alt-right” this summer, he was referring to a movement that promotes white nationalism and argues that the strength of the United States is tied to its ethnic European roots. Its members mostly stick to trolling online, but much of what they do isn’t original or new: Their taunts often involve vicious anti-Semitism. They make it clear that Jews are not included in their vision of a perfect, white, ethno-state.

More Tweets From Trump About Saturday Night Live

SNL sketch that had Donald Trump fuming on Twitter
In what has already become a predictable routine, Saturday Night Live over the weekend poked fun at Donald Trump’s foibles, subsequently prompting the President-elect to thrash the program via, what else, his Twitter account.

Trump is a petty mean little man. Imagine what will happen when he has a twitter tiff with a nuclear armed country leader. We are all doomed.

Goebbel Has Nothing On Lewandowski

I woke up this morning and read an article about Corey Lewandowski -- here is an excerpt: 

Lewandowski, Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, speaking at a forum Thursday night at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government, was criticizing what he considered the media’s myopic focus on the accuracy of Trump’s statements during the campaign. “This is the problem with the media. You guys took everything that Donald Trump said so literally,” Lewandowski said. “The American people didn’t. They understood it. They understood that sometimes — when you have a conversation with people, whether it’s around the dinner table or at a bar — you’re going to say things, and sometimes you don’t have all the facts to back it up.”

Welcome to Trump Doublespeak, people, where no one should take Trump literally. I can only imagine the shock on the faces of non-knuckle draggers in the audience.

This is truly frightening. Trump's going to get us all killed.
