Thursday Short Cuts

Friendly fire: “I don’t talk about impeachment. I think that’s the wrong thing for Democrats to do.” —Jimmy Carter

Friendly fire: “I don’t talk about impeachment. I think that’s the wrong thing for Democrats to do. I think the outcome of the 2018 elections are just completely unknown now.” —Jimmy Carter

Non Compos Mentis I: “The only way I see the end of Trump is if there’s overwhelming evidence he rigged the 2016 election. In which case impeachment isn’t an adequate remedy. His presidency should be annulled. … Annulment would repeal all of an unconstitutional president’s appointments and executive actions, and would eliminate the official record of the presidency.” —former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich

Non Compos Mentis II: “Two of the most powerful men in the country have been credibly accused of sexual crimes and gotten away with it. Laws cracking down on sexual assault have to be signed by a president who multiple women say assaulted them. Regulations to stop sexual harassment can be struck down by a Supreme Court justice who lied under oath to counter allegations of sexual harassment. Why would victims think a government like that is looking out for them?” —Massachusetts State Sen. and U.S. House candidate Barbara L'Italien

Braying Jackass: “Another tragic mass shooting in Florida. Republican Governor Rick Scott proudly boasted that he passed more Pro-gun, NRA legislation than any other governor. Time to close the chapter on deadly pandering. #WinBackYourState, Florida.” —Martin O'Malley

Alpha Jackass: “In many ways — and I don’t mean to sound overly, I don’t know, hyperbolic on this — Trump and Osama bin Laden have a tremendous amount in common.” —Illinois congressional candidate Sean Casten

Divide and conquer: “We are going to have so many women and that’s why the Republicans are so afraid and that’s why President Trump is so afraid. He’s afraid of all the women, people of color, LGBTQ numbers that will be added to the ranks in the Democratic Party, which is already a majority of women, and people of color, and LGBTQ. But … it’s going to be larger numbers and it frightens them.” —Nancy Pelosi

And last… “Calling Antifa a primarily black organization is like labeling Black Lives Matter a bunch of Bernie Bros.” —Noah Rothman
