    The only thing getting me through hearing his bullcrap is the "pulling hankies from his nose" that I'm superimposing in my mind every time he does that stupid finger gesture.

    Do you, in fact, have any builds in this shop at all?

    When Trump started talking I just started laughing uncontrollably for like a minute straight

    May or may not have gone insane

    It's the dawn of a new era. An uglier, more bigoted era where the most vulnerable will be stepped on for ideological reasons.

    The world has become both more parochial and more unstable as the US continues the trend seen across Europe.

    Welcome to the new world, everyone.

    Reminds me a lot of how Harry Potter 5 starts with Harry thinking that the colossal downpour as they arrive at Hogwarts is truly fitting.

    I'm not watching this fascist cheeto lie through his teeth to be sworn in, so you guys are my source of how awful this is.

    Cognitive Dissonance should be an actual painful, possibly lethal, thing.

    How can you honestly get up and say that "this is the people being given back power" after naming every CEO that take one a cabinet-level advisor?

    Is this one of those speeches where Trump pretends he won the popular vote and redefines "the people" to mean "the non-plurality who voted for me"?

    You know, if he follows through on what this speech says, it's going to be a great 4 years. Really, it's full of great platitu...

    Never mind, "the inner city is full of drugs and gangs... this carnage stops right now"

    Because in their eyes only the rich are people. The poors are subhumans.

    What nation does Trump think he just became President of? Because I certainly don't recognize this dystopian landscape he's describing. Not yet, at least.

    Fuck

    In Cleveland gang related violence has seen a dramatic uptick and the drug problem is so bad (re: heroine and fentanyl) that it is constantly talked about on NPR and there are billboards posting for help everywhere.

    Let's ... make that not a problem...? Somehow?
