Very different to the old boss

Ended every bit the cluster**** as the rest of the year was

Are we allowed a do over? I think we need another try at 2016 to see if we can do any better.

I hope everyone copes okay with the impending Trumpening. It's gonna be a long road.

Yeah, good luck to all here in 2017. I suspect we'll need all the luck we can get.

Wrong person steering.

Trump just can't quit hm.

IT'S 2017 !
Crooked Hillary lost, get over it, lib mod
winning

Cue R.E.M.

There's a thread in atf if anyone wants voice their disapproval of the Dessin bull****.

Can we just montage the terrible things that will happen between now and 2020? Can I go into a coma please??

Least excited I've ever been for a new year.

If I get into professional school, 2017 even with Trump might be alright for me

I think the headline is overstating things, but this is how Canadian media is framing Obama's recent sanctions:

'An Incredible Chess Move': Putin checkmates Obama after symbolic sanctions maneuver

When Obama goes low Putin goes high.

Lou is a #NeverTrumper, y'all.

lol? Pretty sure the brilliancy here was having his intelligence services tip the election in favor of his pawn/dupe/whatever.

In the battle of language the reactionaries won total victory on 'smug' and 'self-righteous'. They used to apply to like rich Mr. Howell types and churchy poeple respectively.

By the way to continue a convo we had last LC thread Trump's bizarre "we should use couriers because computers are easy to hack thing" is just a culmination of a huge number of absolutely insanely stupid statements by Trump about "the cyber", and we all laugh at him.

Another thing we laugh at is how MSNBC has the youngest average viewership of the cable news networks and it's still like 59 or something.

Trump is speaking these people's language and the media can't respond appropriately without insulting their audience. "Finally, someone like me", as that one article said.

(another bizarre nod to the ego of cable news is how we pretend the GOP base isn't retirees, all these conversations about trade and jobs and **** make ~zero impact on the lives of Trump's most reliable voters. That's why the War on Christmas gets more coverage than climate change or abortion, seattlelou over in the other thread explaining his "understanding" that climate change won't end humanity but what he really means is he's going to be dead by the time Miami floods either way)
