Trump has already offered to deal on the Dreamers in exchange for the wall, and the Democrats turned him down.

Nancy could have extracted a lot from Trump, but she foreclosed that opportunity.
The reason there is no negotiation is because Pelosi has made the whole thing win-lose, and the only way out for both sides is gut Trump to build the wall using emergency powers.

Just to be clear about why I’m quite satisfied with this; I would not be opposed to funding for new sections of border wall in a variety of locations. Democrats don’t seriously oppose border security with those elements. As all the right-wing press is rightly noting, Democrats mostly voted for that on several previous occasions. What they are now opposing is anything that would give Trump a talking point about how he fulfilled a campaign pledge.
I am satisfied with doing nothing right now, because I hate the amnesty deals that seem to be in play. We can get better border security anytime as long as we aren’t dealing in terms of a big political win for Trump. Democrats really want pro-amnesty immigration reform. They really, really, really want it.
Republicans should be resistant to anybody who wants a “wall” so bad that they are willing to give the Democrats that gift.
Wakey, Wakey! Now we learn, according the the bezos garbage pail (washington compost), the dems want to subpena the translator notes from President Trump's meetings, Rep Menendez was quoted as saying? He was interviewed while on the beach in Puerto Rico where he, his family and staff, along with 30 other compassionate dems, their families and staffs,and a gaggle of lobbyists met to discuss the plight of furloughed federal employees who missed ONE paycheck and the influence of big money in politics! Oh yes, and see "HAMILTON"!!!!!
Lindsey Graham wanting to trade illegal immigrant amnesty for a border wall, is why I identify as a conservative, rather than a Republican. Stop selling our security for political comity, and do what's necessary, regardless of whether the Dems agree to play.
Maybe we should get out in front of this thing and establish our own Deplorables Social Credit System.
For example, under the Deplorables system, this woman would gain significant points on her score:
"WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS — Police were called to a Texas Walmart after a woman was reportedly drinking wine from a Pringles can and riding an electric cart in the parking lot. Officers responded to a call around 9 a.m. about a suspicious person in the store’s parking lot, the Times Record News reported. Investigators found the woman at a nearby restaurant and told her she was banned from the Walmart. The caller said the woman had been riding around the store’s parking lot since 6:30 a.m., drinking wine from the potato chip can."
Lindsey Graham is now talking about a possible deal, where the President gets some kind of Wall, and Democrats extract a major compromise on DACA, amnesty, etc.
That’s the deal that the Democrats could have had this time last year, but they, and their boot-licking lackeys in the press and elsewhere, torpedoed it over whether Trump referred to countries that are shitholes as “shithole countries.” Based on what I have seen of Trump’s negotiating strategies that deal is off the table, essentially forever. You don’t reward people who have acted in bad faith with the same deal they could have had if only they had negotiated in good faith. That’s not how it works in the real world. The only way to force people to negotiate in good faith is to punish them for negotiating in bad faith.
If walls are immoral, then gated communities must be banned. Tear down the walls around gated mansions (e.g., the homes of Hollywood actors) and remove the gates from gated communities.
There will be no general amnesty in a deal for the wall- that ship sailed away a long time ago. I don't doubt that Graham would like to get that, but Trump surely knows that won't get him reelected. A DACA deal might be acceptable, but I will wait to see if even that is on the table any longer.

It's a commonplace to observe how hard it is for a parent to bury a child. Well think how much harder it must be for a parent to have to butcher and kill their child in order to put meat on the table. There have already gen several cases where unpaid TSA agents have had to resort to such drastic measures in order to feed their starving families. I certainly hope this border dispute gets resolvd before there are many more such cases.

APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Boys and Men
PRIVILEGE
The concept of "privilege" was favored by certain special and peculiar interests in the early to mid-20th century Europe. It's intellectual belief formed the foundation for recurring cycles of redistributive and retributive change in some, perhaps many, societies throughout Sub-saharan and Southern Africa. The concept of privilege rationalizes the irreconcilable conflict of diversity or color judgment, but not, notably, selectively, other doctrines of the Pro-Choice Church.
This is all about Pelosi keeping her leadership position. Full stop. She can feel the knives at her back from her Left. Alas, everbody falls off the tightrope eventually.
Half breeds, exclusive of individuals with white, brown, yellow, and orange skin colors, and alt-Americans. Selective and opportunistic leads to principles that are internally, externally, and mutually inconsistent.
“For example, under the Deplorables system, this woman would gain significant points on her score:
"WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS — Police were called to a Texas Walmart after a woman was reportedly drinking wine from a Pringles can and riding an electric cart in the parking lot.”
Great stuff. If she’d been waving a Bryco .32 while doing this, she’d have enough points for first-class air travel.
The wall to limit human rights abuses at the border. Emigration reform to mitigate collateral damage from immigration reform at both ends of the bridge and throughout. To clear the trail, the seas, and secure the civil rights of all unPlanned Americans without social justice or diversity.

Chuck, did you really write what Full Moon quotes you as saying?: Chuck said...
"I am afraid you are mistaking me for someone who has an interest in fair treatment of Donald Trump. I'm not your guy. I am interested in smearing him, hurting him and prejudicing people against him."
Chuck said... "Clutter; personal attacks; low grade idiocy. It comes from a controllably small number of commenters, that could be subject to moderation. But Althouse chooses not to make the effort."
It seems to me, Chuck, you are lobbying, and quite reasonably so, for having your own comments moderated.
I am pleased to see that gadfly, the Poor Man's LLR Chuck, remains ever vigilant in his defense of the noted racist commenter LLR Chuck (he of infamous "Department of Black People" infamy).
Of course, gadfly does not remain so vigilant as to remember the quite incriminating comments made by LLR Chuck, who was possibly quite heavily inebriated at the time of those comments, as that does not advance the lefty narrative.
Gadfly you will recall, attempted to utilize althouseblog to drive traffic to his/her own blog.
Needless to say, the "quality" of gadflys cut and paste comments rendered that tactic ineffective, to say the least.
You know, Meade, I now regret using the word "smear," because my critics are correct that a strict definition of that word includes the notion of "damaging the reputation of another by false accusations." As I have said before and repeatedly, I would not want to hurt Trump by false accusations. I would want to hurt Trump by true and accurate accusations.
In an interesting bit of turnabout, I had it out with Althouse before on the usage of "smear." She thought it had been a "smear" of Trump to link him with the alleged usage of the "shithole countries" phrase. At this post. Remember? Althouse thought it a "smear" that Trump had been linked to the phrase. And I tried to drill down on whether TrumpWorld was ever going to agree on whether (a) Trump didn't say it; (b) Trump said it and was right to say it, or (c) Trump said it but it was private and should never have been made public. With Althouse, I was hammering on the notion that it wasn't a "smear" if it was true. Ironic, you might say. And I would have to agree.
So yeah, Meade. I wrote that. It's an accurate quote. I'd like to see the context in which I wrote it; no doubt it was in the midst of more insults and abuse of me by the Althouse commentariat. But I wrote it and I own it and I have never once denied it.
I'm not a journalist; I'm not a judge sitting on a case in which Trump is a party. I am not a government official owing a duty of fairness and fair dealing to Trump. I don't feel that I owe any duty of fairness to Trump. I think he's hateful and despicable and an asshole and I will be very happy when something very bad happens to him.
And as I wrote yesterday, Meade; I would not ever lie about Trump by suggesting that he might not have been born in the U.S., and claim that I had sent my own private investigators to Germany to look into a matter of Trump's birth, and tell the world that they were reporting back to me that they were discovering things "they can't believe." That would be crazy. It would be stupid. And it would be a lie, that would only diminish me, and enhance the stature of the man I sought to attack.
Dunno, I hear Graham now saying it's time for Trump to go emergency route..what he calls the last resort. How ever did Chuck sit through an opera with such relentless butthurt?

Trump told reporters today that Democrats can call the wall "peaches" so long as they give him the money.
LLR Chuck: "You know, Meade, I now regret using the word "smear," because my critics are correct that a strict definition of that word includes the notion of "damaging the reputation of another by false accusations."
Supposed self-described hot-shot cracker-jack lawyer suddenly realizes the implications of using the term "smear" in a repeated and loud and proud fashion.
Almost as if he is not really a hot-shot cracker-jack lawyer at all.....
narciso: "Well there is the matter of Obama's own memoir jacket blur, that identified him as Kenyan born and the son of a finance minister for some 17 years,"
Shhhh!
Self-appointed legal "expert" LLR Chuck has already ruled all information that runs counter to the far left narrative irrelevant and not germane.
His mini-me gadfly has also chimed in, but only after receiving the hi-sign from his lawful Narrative Lord Chuck.
"It was truly hilarious to watch the parade of objective ABC notables solemnly intoning what a reprobate Bill was throughout the Lewinsky fiasco. It raises the question: where were they in the 1990s, when he was apparently molesting and raping his way from Arkansas north to D.C., and jeopardizing U.S. national security along the way (blackmail, anyone?)? And it raises the yet more tantalizing question of what has changed. Why now?"
narciso said... Well there is the matter of Obama's own memoir jacket blur, that identified him as Kenyan born and the son of a finance minister for some 17 years,
...that by all accounts, including Obama's and the blurb author's, Obama didn't write. (This subject is so profoundly uninteresting to me, I'm not even sure that you characterized it correctly.)
But what's your point? Is it that in fact Obama was born in Kenya? Or are you arguing that Obama somehow made it hard to figure out where he was born? (Which now even President Birther agrees was "in Hawaii.") On the assumption that Obama lied, to make himself appear more interesting to prospective publishers, it has nothing to do with his later qualifications as President, which was Trump's moronic point in promoting Birtherism.
Some of you shit heads have been trying to excuse Trump's insane "John Miller" tape when I brought it up. Are any of you simultaneously excusing that insanity and yet also attacking Obama if (as I think is proven untrue) he tried to promote himself with a fabulist publishing blurb?
"I'm not a journalist; I'm not a judge sitting on a case in which Trump is a party. I am not a government official owing a duty of fairness and fair dealing to Trump. I don't feel that I owe any duty of fairness to Trump."
You left out 'I do not possess a sense of integrity'.
LLR Chuck: "Under what moderation rule/standard/"suggestion" should I leave, Meade? I'd like some specifics. That is, if you are an Althouse Blog Moderator."
Alternate Chuck: How dare you apply rules to me, a clear bad actor, instead of adhering to my demands that you unfairly apply said rules to non-bad actors??!!
Can you imagine how LLR Chuck addresses Ann and Meade in his private treatise-length correspondence when this is how he speaks to them in his public over-wrought commentary.
@ Seeing Red There is an extension for Chrome and Firefox browers called killfile. I use it here and it's marvelous. It hides all comments from the commenter that you "hush." Makes this blog much more enjoyable. :-)
Let me say something. I think the [blogger] is right. And that is that the [Althouse readers] are sick and tired of hearing about [Chuck's] damn emails.
The Increasingly Desperate LLR Chuck: "...that by all accounts, including Obama's and the blurb author's, Obama didn't write."
By all lefty, after the fact, accounts.
LOL
But this subject, as any subject which shows the lefties lying/misrepresenting/fabricating etc, is simply uninteresting to the self-admitted pro-left smear merchant Chuck who has demonstrated time and again his willingness to openly lie to help Team Left.
Drago said... Can you imagine how LLR Chuck addresses Ann and Meade in his private treatise-length correspondence when this is how he speaks to them in his public over-wrought commentary.
Meade said... "Release the Chuck e-mails!"
Let me say something. I think the [blogger] is right. And that is that the [Althouse readers] are sick and tired of hearing about [Chuck's] damn emails.
You and I both know, Meade, that I haven't sent either you, or Althouse, any treatise-length e-mails, and that I have probably sent Althouse about three emails in the past three years. And that you and I have never corresponded.
And further, that before Trump, I had only the most occasional correspondence with Althouse, and that it was quite friendly.
The attack on me by Drago as posted above is false, and has nothing to do with anything else that I or anyone else posted here. It's a personal attack and in the description of Althouse, "clutter."
As was Full Moon's repetitive quoting of me with regard to my wanting to "smear" Trump. Althouse's comments pages are now filled with Full Moon and Drago and a couple of others doing the same thing time and time and time again. Not because those comments are remotely on point. More "clutter."
And (again) moreover, you've got lots of Althouse blog comments pages where I haven't even commented, yet Drago and others are calling me out by name, with imagined quotes from me, phony purported positions held by me, and more personal attacks on me.
Pick any Trump-related blog post you want, Meade. Go to the comments page. I will almost guarantee you what you will find. It will feature comments that call me out by name, replete with personal attacks, when I have (a) not yet commented or (b) commented by directing myself squarely to the subject of the blog post.
This is your problem, not mine. ~ I didn't start these personal attacks, they did. ~ My initial reaction was to suggest to Althouse better moderation. She declined. ~ It's clearly not in my power to do moderation, but it is within Althouse's. ~ It matters not to me whether the Althouse blog is a success, but I think it matters to Althouse and you.
after 10 years some like shaked and bennett, who wish a more secular but firmer hand re the Palestinians suggest a better way, a similar things occurs in Colombia with uribe, who vanquished the guerilla and most of the cartels, perhaps using unorthodox methods,
Lawrence O'Donnell/MSNBC Fanboy Chuck: "As was Full Moon's repetitive quoting of me with regard to my wanting to "smear" Trump."
Chuck gets very very very angry and violent when others quote him accurately because it tends to clearly illustrate the degree to which he is here in open bad faith.
sorry lawfare, with uribe his deputy, a respected publisher from the 80s, Guillermo santos when most knuckled under to the cartels, decided to surrender to the guerillas, in an oslo type agreement, his most likely rival, in the party a mr. arias was forced to flee to the states on threat of bogus indictment, a third party candidate, prevented uribe's proxy from taking office years later, the candidate finally one over a former guerilla,
scary larry is like belushi on snl, I'm not saying he's on some offlabel intoxicants, I'm not saying he's not. but he does have to dig for the rich vein of crazy at MSNBC,
LLR Chuck: "It matters not to me whether the Althouse blog is a success, but I think it matters to Althouse and you."
LOL
What astonishing narcissism!
LLR Chuck is clearly asserting that if he is not free to write whatever pro-dem and self-serving tripe that he cares to vomit out AND be shielded from criticism and accurate quoting of his previous comments that somehow this precludes the possibility of Althouse Blog success!
Wow!
And I thought yesterdays assertion by Chuck that a single alleged phone call by Trump decades ago was literally equivalent to Serial Killing/Mass Murder/Genocide of entire populations was too much!
But now this?!
I tell you, we have struck the Mother Lode of LLR Chuck's pro-far-left insanity!
Birkel: "Ha. I just noticed Chuck, fopdoodle extraordinaire, air-quoted himself with the word "smear" as if he didn't honestly type that word."
As I noted earlier, this is simply another attempt by LLR Chuck to rewrite his previous comments which give away his game here.
Bad faith indeed.
Obviously. Undeniably. Irrefutably.
If I didnt know better I might suggest that Chuck is a Russian troll whose task is to sow division amongst the only party that truly represents a danger to him: the republicans.
Where is Mueller when you need him?
Oh yeah..over at DNC HQ coordinating strategy with congressional dems and the media.
Inga is sometimes good for a laugh. Chuck has made a. couple of funnies, though his percentage is abysmally low. PPT? He is just way too concerned that anybody should diss Obama.
He is not alone. Today on the Golf Channel, they showed Obama’s swing and asked for a word to describe it. His swing is abysmal, am I overusing that word? Anyway, one of the commenters was like “It’s a smooth swing, like you would expect from “No Drama Obama.” It’s only a “smooth swing” if you compare it to Charles Barkley. I would have said it was the swing of a man who won’t let anybody tell him anything and who thinks he is a better golfer than his pro.
Royal ass Inga wants me to use a different word than the one she prefers. Given all Royal ass Inga's whinging about things, I think I will pass.
First, commenting on spelling (unless making light and in good humour) is always bad form. Second, correcting somebody else on spelling or grammar always means you will make the same or similar mistake in short order.
I stopped having it on all the time as background (lots of pretty green golf courses, calming) because they kept running “promos” that were nothing but clips of Joe Scarborough doing his famous “gadfly”. impersonation.

It's a commonplace to observe how hard it is for a parent to bury a child. Well think how much harder it must be for a parent to have to butcher and kill their child in order to put meat on the table. There have already gen several cases where unpaid TSA agents have had to resort to such drastic measures in order to feed their starving families. I certainly hope this border dispute gets resolvd before there are many more such cases.

Copy&Paste for readers new to Althouse who may accidentally take commenter Chuck, (who threatened bodily harm to Greta van Sustern [sic] because he disagreed with her) seriously:

APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Boys and Men
PRIVILEGE
The concept of "privilege" was favored by certain special and peculiar interests in the early to mid-20th century Europe. It's intellectual belief formed the foundation for recurring cycles of redistributive and retributive change in some, perhaps many, societies throughout Sub-saharan and Southern Africa. The concept of privilege rationalizes the irreconcilable conflict of diversity or color judgment, but not, notably, selectively, other doctrines of the Pro-Choice Church.
Although boys and men, as a group, tend to hold privilege and power based on gender
Based on sex, yes and no. Certain physiological gender attributes, correlated with sex, yes.
This is all about Pelosi keeping her leadership position. Full stop. She can feel the knives at her back from her Left. Alas, everbody falls off the tightrope eventually.
among African American and Latino boys
Half breeds, exclusive of individuals with white, brown, yellow, and orange skin colors, and alt-Americans. Selective and opportunistic leads to principles that are internally, externally, and mutually inconsistent.
“For example, under the Deplorables system, this woman would gain significant points on her score:

Chuck, did you really write what Full Moon quotes you as saying?: Chuck said...
"I am afraid you are mistaking me for someone who has an interest in fair treatment of Donald Trump. I'm not your guy. I am interested in smearing him, hurting him and prejudicing people against him."
If you really did write that 3 years ago, is it still your interest to smear, hurt and prejudice people against POTUS?
If it isn't still your interest, exactly how long ago did it stop being your interest?

@Meade, marvelous squelch.
I am pleased to see that gadfly, the Poor Man's LLR Chuck, remains ever vigilant in his defense of the noted racist commenter LLR Chuck (he of infamous "Department of Black People" infamy).
Of course, gadfly does not remain so vigilant as to remember the quite incriminating comments made by LLR Chuck, who was possibly quite heavily inebriated at the time of those comments, as that does not advance the lefty narrative.
Gadfly you will recall, attempted to utilize althouseblog to drive traffic to his/her own blog.
Needless to say, the "quality" of gadflys cut and paste comments rendered that tactic ineffective, to say the least.
You know, Meade, I now regret using the word "smear," because my critics are correct that a strict definition of that word includes the notion of "damaging the reputation of another by false accusations." As I have said before and repeatedly, I would not want to hurt Trump by false accusations. I would want to hurt Trump by true and accurate accusations.
In an interesting bit of turnabout, I had it out with Althouse before on the usage of "smear." She thought it had been a "smear" of Trump to link him with the alleged usage of the "shithole countries" phrase. At this post. Remember? Althouse thought it a "smear" that Trump had been linked to the phrase. And I tried to drill down on whether TrumpWorld was ever going to agree on whether (a) Trump didn't say it; (b) Trump said it and was right to say it, or (c) Trump said it but it was private and should never have been made public. With Althouse, I was hammering on the notion that it wasn't a "smear" if it was true. Ironic, you might say. And I would have to agree.
So yeah, Meade. I wrote that. It's an accurate quote. I'd like to see the context in which I wrote it; no doubt it was in the midst of more insults and abuse of me by the Althouse commentariat. But I wrote it and I own it and I have never once denied it.
I'm not a journalist; I'm not a judge sitting on a case in which Trump is a party. I am not a government official owing a duty of fairness and fair dealing to Trump. I don't feel that I owe any duty of fairness to Trump. I think he's hateful and despicable and an asshole and I will be very happy when something very bad happens to him.
And as I wrote yesterday, Meade; I would not ever lie about Trump by suggesting that he might not have been born in the U.S., and claim that I had sent my own private investigators to Germany to look into a matter of Trump's birth, and tell the world that they were reporting back to me that they were discovering things "they can't believe." That would be crazy. It would be stupid. And it would be a lie, that would only diminish me, and enhance the stature of the man I sought to attack.
Dunno,
I hear Graham now saying it's time for Trump to go emergency route..what he calls the last resort.
How ever did Chuck sit through an opera with such relentless butthurt?

Self-appointed legal "expert" LLR Chuck has already ruled all information that runs counter to the far left narrative irrelevant and not germane.
His mini-me gadfly has also chimed in, but only after receiving the hi-sign from his lawful Narrative Lord Chuck.
Mind you Joe Ellis had his bio as a special forces veteran assigned to Westmorelands staff, which was a little dubious.

But only utterly.
"It was truly hilarious to watch the parade of objective ABC notables solemnly intoning what a reprobate Bill was throughout the Lewinsky fiasco. It raises the question: where were they in the 1990s, when he was apparently molesting and raping his way from Arkansas north to D.C., and jeopardizing U.S. national security along the way (blackmail, anyone?)? And it raises the yet more tantalizing question of what has changed. Why now?"

...that by all accounts, including Obama's and the blurb author's, Obama didn't write. (This subject is so profoundly uninteresting to me, I'm not even sure that you characterized it correctly.)
But what's your point? Is it that in fact Obama was born in Kenya? Or are you arguing that Obama somehow made it hard to figure out where he was born? (Which now even President Birther agrees was "in Hawaii.") On the assumption that Obama lied, to make himself appear more interesting to prospective publishers, it has nothing to do with his later qualifications as President, which was Trump's moronic point in promoting Birtherism.
Some of you shit heads have been trying to excuse Trump's insane "John Miller" tape when I brought it up. Are any of you simultaneously excusing that insanity and yet also attacking Obama if (as I think is proven untrue) he tried to promote himself with a fabulist publishing blurb?

Let me say something. I think the [blogger] is right. And that is that the [Althouse readers] are sick and tired of hearing about [Chuck's] damn emails.
You and I both know, Meade, that I haven't sent either you, or Althouse, any treatise-length e-mails, and that I have probably sent Althouse about three emails in the past three years. And that you and I have never corresponded.
And further, that before Trump, I had only the most occasional correspondence with Althouse, and that it was quite friendly.
The attack on me by Drago as posted above is false, and has nothing to do with anything else that I or anyone else posted here. It's a personal attack and in the description of Althouse, "clutter."
As was Full Moon's repetitive quoting of me with regard to my wanting to "smear" Trump. Althouse's comments pages are now filled with Full Moon and Drago and a couple of others doing the same thing time and time and time again. Not because those comments are remotely on point. More "clutter."
And (again) moreover, you've got lots of Althouse blog comments pages where I haven't even commented, yet Drago and others are calling me out by name, with imagined quotes from me, phony purported positions held by me, and more personal attacks on me.
Pick any Trump-related blog post you want, Meade. Go to the comments page. I will almost guarantee you what you will find. It will feature comments that call me out by name, replete with personal attacks, when I have (a) not yet commented or (b) commented by directing myself squarely to the subject of the blog post.
This is your problem, not mine.
~ I didn't start these personal attacks, they did.
~ My initial reaction was to suggest to Althouse better moderation. She declined.
~ It's clearly not in my power to do moderation, but it is within Althouse's.
~ It matters not to me whether the Althouse blog is a success, but I think it matters to Althouse and you.
Shut up with all the whinging.
It's not manly.
meanwhile they are waging warfare at Netanyahu, on some equally dubious charges:
https://saraacarter.com/gazan-violence-continues-at-israels-border/
after 10 years some like shaked and bennett, who wish a more secular but firmer hand re the Palestinians suggest a better way, a similar things occurs in Colombia with uribe, who vanquished the guerilla and most of the cartels, perhaps using unorthodox methods,
Lawrence O'Donnell/MSNBC Fanboy Chuck: "As was Full Moon's repetitive quoting of me with regard to my wanting to "smear" Trump."
Chuck gets very very very angry and violent when others quote him accurately because it tends to clearly illustrate the degree to which he is here in open bad faith.
sorry lawfare, with uribe his deputy, a respected publisher from the 80s, Guillermo santos when most knuckled under to the cartels, decided to surrender to the guerillas, in an oslo type agreement, his most likely rival, in the party a mr. arias was forced to flee to the states on threat of bogus indictment, a third party candidate, prevented uribe's proxy from taking office years later, the candidate finally one over a former guerilla,
"it would be unfair to withhold beatings from those who work so hard to obtain them"
Ha. I just noticed Chuck, fopdoodle extraordinaire, air-quoted himself with the word "smear" as if he didn't honestly type that word.
He still cannot acknowledge what the plain meaning of his sentence is.

What astonishing narcissism!
LLR Chuck is clearly asserting that if he is not free to write whatever pro-dem and self-serving tripe that he cares to vomit out AND be shielded from criticism and accurate quoting of his previous comments that somehow this precludes the possibility of Althouse Blog success!
Wow!
And I thought yesterdays assertion by Chuck that a single alleged phone call by Trump decades ago was literally equivalent to Serial Killing/Mass Murder/Genocide of entire populations was too much!
But now this?!

Bad faith indeed.

It’s unknowable.
I cannot decide if Chuck or Ritmo are more responsible for my growing disinterest in this blog.
Inga was always god for a laugh.
Inga is sometimes good for a laugh. Chuck has made a. couple of funnies, though his percentage is abysmally low. PPT? He is just way too concerned that anybody should diss Obama.
He is not alone. Today on the Golf Channel, they showed Obama’s swing and asked for a word to describe it. His swing is abysmal, am I overusing that word? Anyway, one of the commenters was like “It’s a smooth swing, like you would expect from “No Drama Obama.” It’s only a “smooth swing” if you compare it to Charles Barkley. I would have said it was the swing of a man who won’t let anybody tell him anything and who thinks he is a better golfer than his pro.
So is the golf channel run by ESPN too. Good grief.
Royal ass Inga wants me to use a different word than the one she prefers.
Given all Royal ass Inga's whinging about things, I think I will pass.
First, commenting on spelling (unless making light and in good humour) is always bad form.
Second, correcting somebody else on spelling or grammar always means you will make the same or similar mistake in short order.
Whinge about that, Royal ass Inga.
I stopped having it on all the time as background (lots of pretty green golf courses, calming) because they kept running “promos” that were nothing but clips of Joe Scarborough doing his famous “gadfly”. impersonation.
Personally, I just skip Ritmo.
Morning joke can be taken in small doses like the poison inigo montoya did.
Golf Channel is an NBC property.
But I no longer have cable but there's still plenty of stupid offerings in the morning.
Pretty much all of them, on tv.
