"Trump's chaotic management style is how he operates."

I've always compared him to Littlefinger (Lord Baelish) on A Game of Thrones. "Chaos is a ladder."

Presidents always break some of their campaign promises when coming into office, and do dubious stuff with executive orders and pardons on their way out. This seems like just another pointless faux outrage thread.

----. If I'm agreeing with EffetePoser on something, hell truly has frozen over.

"Stop yammering about issues of morality."

The OP and the author of the article are engaging in fake outrage, just like of many of you engage in fake outrage over practically everything Republicans do, regardless of the circumstances.

A forest fire on both of your houses.

Who wants to see another Joker sequel?

I didn't realize until yesterday that both Tom Baker and David Lynch had birthdays on January 20th. I always wondered what Doctor Who would have been like if it were made by Lynch. It seemed like Steven Moffat was aiming to emulate that sometimes, but unlike Lynch he couldn't write satisfying finales to his storylines.

"Which ones did I mention?"

I'm not gonna play this dumb game with you. Save your sea-lioning for the lefties you're having "fun" with here.

Whatever, dude. The people who defend the BLM rioters have lame conspiracy excuses too.

At least I'm consistent. I don't have any sympathy for either the violent BLM rioters or the violent J6 rioters.

"What about police who shot unarmed Americans?"

What about them? Sometimes it's justified, sometimes not. Just like I've been telling the BLM supporters for years.

I beg your pardon?

I really don't care if he pardoned the ones who were non-violent, like he said he was going to do, but showing any mercy to the ones who attacked police with flagpoles and fire extinguishers? ------- indefensible. And pathetic.

"Who?"

The owls are not what they seem.

It's kind of ironic that the first time Russell Davies brought Doctor Who back, there were concerns that the content would be too much like his other projects like "Queer As Folk", but it wasn't. And then when he came back, no one expected him to do that, but he did.

Fine, when bad things happen the next four years, now you know the reason why.

Because you forgot to meditate.

You all participated, right?

"I've never understood what the word "queer" means."

It literally means strange, odd, or abnormal. It was commonly used that way in the Sherlock Holmes short stories.

If it think about it, Biden is sending a grim message with these pardons. He's basically folding and acknowledging that this is basically what the American people wanted when they reelected Trump. It's actually kind of Daoist in nature. Is this what you really want, America? Okay, then, let's find out.

The same one. It truly is a variety show.

"You voted for and supported Bill Clinton. GFY"

I never understood why people make excuses for either Clinton or Trump, other than just dumb partisanship.

"Boaz, lay off the moronic headlines and opinions, traitor"

How else is he gonna troll you guys, then? Either offer alternative solutions or stop complaining.

"is "drill baby drill" the new slogan for Tesla?"

It could be, if Tesla moves into the automated dental equipment market.

"December, 2020.
Jake Tapper asks President-elect Biden about the rumor that Trump may issue some preemptive pardons before leaving office.
Biden: You're not going to see me do that."

Democrats definitely shot themselves in the feet with statements like that, as well as huffing over anything that was "unprecedented". That said, no rational person could really blame him under the current circumstances of someone who previously abused his power threatening retribution as soon as he gets back into office.

We live in interesting times.

"Bannon: This is all a process, right? This is a populist, nationalist revolution in this country. It's been building for a long time. It takes a real understanding of how the system is and what solutions are populist solutions to change it. So is President Trump using us? No, it's his movement, right? We wouldn't be a movement if President Trump hadn't come along."

Cripes, you could copy and paste the naivete here from apologists for practically any Marxist revolutionary leader.
