Remember that they were all elected - congresscritters and POTUS alike. That should tell you something about the quality of the electorate.

Yes, we gen-Xers got a lot of things for cheap or free, and we had a lot more opportunities for sure - and our boomer parents even more so - because we rode the tail end of the post-WW2 economic boom.

I totally get the jealousy. What I don’t get is the hate: I can’t count the number of young people who actually hate me because I happen to have had it better than them. Sorry… It’s not like I planned it or anything, and I didn’t set out to ruin anybody’s life after me neither.

I am honestly sad that I never got to experience that America

I’m so sorry. But it was like that. Sure it had its many, many flaws. But it was a place where studying hard, making it to and through college and being educated were valued more highly than being a vocal cretin, where science was respected, craziness was fringe, religion was retreating, working hard gave you a real - albeit small - chance at striking it rich, and where you could expect your children to be better off than you if you did everything right.

All that is gone. I really feel sorry for you and those of your generation who never got to experience the “good” America - at least good if you were white…

The recorder is like the guitar: just because generations of talentless kids inflicted them on their parents doesn’t mean they’re bad instruments incapable of producing good music. It’s just that most people have also heard good guitar and know what it can sound like, while very few have heard good recorder.

Always remember that Trump’s unhinged dementia-fueled stuff is of concern because there are morons who listen to him. If nobody did, he’d be as harmless as my stark-raving mad grandfather’s rants were.

It looks like all airlines and pilots are afraid of the threat posed by the rogue country on the American continent - and I’m not talking about the one on the map.

I’m old enough to remember the America of best education, top science and engineering in the world. The America that proudly went to the Moon. The America that developed the Internet on public money.

I guess I can feel the contrast with the idiocracy of today a bit more keenly than younger folks who have never known anything else.

How a man this crass managed to be President twice, I’ll never know. What a fucking disgrace…

Well duh… Most politicians can talk.

Mohammed, when I said “You gotta take care of that journalist, chop-chop!”, I didn’t mean it literally!

Oh for crying out loud… It’s been 30 years.

Something tells me the royal family is desperate for any distraction from Andrew and whether he’ll be invited by his inbred relatives for Christmas, and if it takes digging up Diana’s corpse, they’re not above doing it.

Is this kethead Nazi still in the news? Who cares about him now that he’s not in a position to hurt anyone anymore?

What a loss. Oh the humanity!

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

How would he know without knowing himself?

Something tells me the brother’s hands aren’t super clean either.

Something also tells me he’s setting himself up to fall off a window or accidentally hang himself without the camera rolling soon…

Like everything the Trump regime does, the cruelty is the point. Because this is of no practical value to anybody.

You know what? Call me a hopeless square, but if you think Jeffrey Epstein was creepy, his brother is sketchy as fuck too if you ask me. He seems to know entirely too much for a man who isn’t in prison. Maybe a couple of interviews with the house oversight committee would do America good.

But I guess we shouldn’t antagonize the only source of credible material that has any chance of bringing Trump down. So painful though it is to admit it, I’m willing to let it slide for the brother.

Oh and yeah, where I come from, “bubba” means “brother”: maybe he was the one Trump sucked off?

Yeah, when my Dad was being examined to figure out how his dementia had progressed, the doctors didn’t tell him what they brought him in for exactly either, for fear of triggering rage in him - which, like Trump is constantly displaying, is a clear sign of frontotemporal dementia, which was the variant my Dad suffered from too.

Me and my siblings had to deal with my Dad’s dementia for years until he passed away, and we feel like we’re watching the exact same movie all over again whenever we see or hear Trump. He’s at the stage where it’s starting to become quite obvious that he’s not completely functional anymore.

I’m pretty sure others who’ve had to deal with loved ones with dementia - particularly violent forms of it - recognize the symptoms too.

Well, even if it’s incorrect, I’ll use it. One of the powers of the English language is that you can mold it to your liking and it’s a-okay as long as other people understand you. And if Shakespeare can invent 1,600 words, surely I can invent a few myself 😜

Dershowitz has made a career defending the indefensible.

But worry not: there’s a special place in hell reserved for him already, and at his age, he’s probably starting to feel the flames lick his feet.

Alan Dershowitz likely murdered his wife

Never heard that in my life.
Sources?

molested children with Epstein

Agreed on that one.
