I like the attack that Donald has lost it. Let people have the out - they can think he was great before, so they were right to support him, but now Donald has changed so they can oppose him without ever admitting they were wrong.

It would suck not to hold people accountable for their very bad decisions, but at this point if it means putting this shit behind us, I’d begrudgingly take it.

Those people would never admit they were wrong anyway

It's all about creating a permission structure for people to change their minds without breaking their minds.

Allow them to change with grace and acceptance and embrace them for changing.

Is this how deprogramming works? Many of his followers have made him their way of life.

Changing a person’s worldview isn’t a trivial undertaking.

Keen observation. And here I was, focusing mostly on the Couchfucker aspect of the ad. I’m glad you pointed this out as I hadn’t caught that.

I’m usually for taking the high road, but I have to admit- I like this new ‘hitting below the belt’ vibe she has. Trump deserves no mercy. No courtesy, and no quarter.

Yeah, probably shouldn't let Ignatius J Riley be one flagging heartbeat away from the nuclear codes.

I don't get that reference.

He's the main character from A Confederacy of Dunces. Ignatius is who Vance would be if he was from New Orleans and didn't get picked up by Thiel.
