Monday Short Cuts

“Chelsea” Manning says, “Taxation is a sharing of responsibility.” Not that “she” has a vested interested or anything…

The Gipper: “A friend of mine was asked to a costume ball a short time ago. He slapped some egg on his face and went as a liberal economist.”

Observations: “The difficulties the Republicans have faced were inevitable. They are divided; they don’t have the will or the base. The party is undergoing a populist realignment, with party donors, think-tankers and ideologues seeing things more or less one way, and the Trump base, including many Democrats, seeing them another. The long-stable ground under Republican senators has been shifting, and they’re not sure where or how to stand. The president, philosophically unmoored and operating without a firm grasp of the legislation he promotes, is little help. He has impulses and sentiments but is not, as the French used to say, a serious man. He just wants a deal and a win, and there’s something almost refreshing in this, in the lack of tangled and complicated personal and political motives. It makes so much possible.” —Peggy Noonan

Non Compos Mentis: “Taxation is a sharing of responsibility … only the wealthy believe that taxation is theft … they dont pay taxes … we should make them.” —tweet from “Chelsea” Manning

Braying Jackass: “Our whack job POTUS @realDonaldTrump is tweeting about me at the G20. Get a grip man, the Russians committed a crime when they stole my emails to help get you elected President.” —John Podesta

That’s racist! “Trump’s white-nationalist dog whistles in Warsaw.” —Jonathan Capehart opinion headline

More race bait: “The Racial and Religious Paranoia of Trump’s Warsaw Speech.” —The Atlantic headline

And last… “Democrats seem to believe that if they were capable of successfully impeaching Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton would become president because she came in second last November. That’s what comes of not reading the Constitution.” —Burt Prelutsky
