Trump leaves own superbowl party early...Sad...

At the party I attended, the host got drunk and passed out before halftime, and yet he still had the guts to stagger back out for overtime!

Until the scheduled final defeat of ISIS! Who else is counting down with me, comrades?

KellyAnn Conway reacts to Streep!

“I’m concerned that somebody with a platform like Meryl Streep is also, I think, inciting people’s worst instincts,” Conway said. “When she won’t get up there and say, ‘I didn’t like it, but let’s try to support him and see where we can find some common ground with him.’ Which he has actually done from moment one. The moment he won, he said I’m going to be president for [all people].”

I love her suggestion that Trump has tried to mend fences since "the moment he won"! I guess she didn't read his tweet about his "enemies". Also, it is a bit much to hear Conway complain about someone "inciting people's worst instincts", considering her bosses campaign rhetoric...

Anti-Gun Control argument fail...

I was just exposed to a new tactic from the right-wing gun loving crowd: gloating about how mass shootings have increased dramatically under President Obama's watch!

I'm afraid I do not understand why the right thinks this is a winning argument, or something with which to taunt the President. Has there been any meaningful gun-control legislation passed under Obama's watch at all?

I would expect to see this article in Mother Jones, not on some right-wing site.

Uhhh, DU?

Just saw a side-bar ad for a "MAGA" ring here on DU. Does DU have any saw over who advertises here?
