I hope your dad is writing his representatives and phoning their offices every day.

I don't. Boomers are a tumor on the US Democracy. I love my parents, I really do, but man their generation has been bad for this country.

Well you know your dad, so I suppose you have your reasons for giving up hope.

Don't work on my parents, most certainly won't work on yours. We need to get GenX and Millenials to vote everyone from the Boomers out of office and shove them to the sidelines of our government and culture.

Shit. Warren Ellis wrote a comic book about Trump's election... in 1997!!

Nah, Trump is the Beast, not the Smiler. He's neither smooth not cunning, he's just Nixon part deux.

goobster  ·  2966 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Nah, Trump is Heller.

Scarily close to Heller, actually.
