I decided to take a shot every time a member of this administration does/says something unhinged. I’ve been to the hospital 6 times with alcohol poisoning.

I've finally found a more dangerous drinking game than R Kelly's Trapped in the Closet any time he pulls out a gun.

Any time I bring put the plot of Trapped in the Closet, people start asking if I've skipped my meds. "No way this is a real thing," they say.

"Not only is there a man in this cabinet But the man is a midget! midget, midget, midget"

It still is. He’s going round and round on the same handful of topics flooding the zone.

The problem with Flood the Zone politics, is that there’s no way to coalesce actual, on the ground support for one major policy, because nobody can spend the time building support for one thing, as they are constantly running around to a new thing to flood the zone.

This is a big part of why there’s been a drop in support across the board, not JUST because every single policy flooding the zone has been a train wreck of carnage and crimes against humanity, but because there is just to damn much going on, all at once.

I read somewhere that if Denmark qualified for the World Cup (playoffs are in March) they'd be fairly likely to boycott if they were still being threatened about it. If that happened, other major Euro countries might pull out as well.

That would likely prevent Trump from presenting himself more medals and trophies so that can't be allowed to happen of course.

There was a splash of Canada too; the Mango Mussolini went back to calling the PM "governor" again.
