Slumming

No one is nuking anyone. We are all already balls-deep in bed with each other.

Global capital is what matters. Not countries. No one is nuking their investors, engineers, accountants, and condo-builders-for-wealthy-offspring.

Bringing Russia and America closer than ever before.

So globalism, which everyone who voted for Trump was against, is marching forward at the tip of a nuclear arsenal. Awesome.

It's inevitable. However ridiculous this all is and will undoubtedly continue to be, it won't continue to be surprising. Trump's persona will more and more become the regular, or at least 'a' regular way of doing things.

"Trump's not going to run.... He won't win a primary... He won't get the nomination... He's never going to win... He won't launch a nuke..."

damn you dime

This sounds like a welcome change to hysterical catastrophising.

Meanwhile: Ivanka Trump Accosted by Passenger on JetBlue Flight - there are some seriously damaged people out there.

Seriously, though. Why the fuck are they flying coach JetBlue? Don't tell me they don't have money for NetJets or something. They are fucking crazy to think they could walk in there after all the shit they pull and not get fucked with. And no michael jackson style facemask or sunglasses or anything? What a bunch of fucking idiots. And what about their "brand" ? She looks horrible in that photo. Just butt-nasty with a hoodie and no makeup? Billionaire row? Fuckin skanks

that really is strange. Trump must be shitting himself that his brand is damaged.

This is horrifying, Uppers.

Do some people just forget that these are actual human beings, not weird TV characters?

Dude - the United States of America is full of crazy fucking people. Brad Pitt can't just walk around in public. Eddie Vedder can't just walk around in public. The fuckin' daughter of the President-elect can't just walk around in public. It's absolute lunacy to think they could spend 1 year as the focal point of the brainwashing box and then just walk around with the plebes and expect one of them not to get all up in their face.

or were you just fucking with me

you were fucking with me, weren't you

fuck

No fucking, I was being serious!

It's weird as hell.

I'm curious what Exxon Mobil brought to the table, technology wise. Did the Russians have bountiful sweet crude ala Saudi Arabia and then needed to get into more difficult deposits more recently?

"Let it be an arms race" helped me discover my secret wish: to listen to Dolph Lundgren read Trump's tweets and statements aloud, as Ivan Drago.

We should rename this thread to "McP's retweets"
