Absolutely bonkers stuff here

Have you read Shanahan’s overview on Wikipedia? Calling her a wackjob is insulting to wackjobs.

You know how Charli XCX said Kamala is brat? That’s not even close to true. You know who is 110% brat? Nicole Shanahan, because, in the words of Charli herself:

You’re just like that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes. Who feels herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like, parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile. Like, does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat.

Brat Is not a compliment.

I can't remember where I saw this reference today but it was referring to the 1800 Presidental election where Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr tied on electors. There was a reference to a letter from Alexander Hamilton to Harrison Grey Otis who was a member of the House at the time (representing Massachusetts). 
Very appropriate for today 

Quote

Mr. Jefferson, though too revolutionary in his notions, is yet a lover
of liberty and will be desirous of something like orderly Government – Mr. Burr loves nothing
but himself – thinks of nothing but his own aggrandizement – and will be content with nothing
short of permanent power [struck: and] in his own hands – No compact, that he should make
with any [struck: other] passion in his [struck: own] breast except [struck: his] Ambition, could
be relied upon by himself – How then should we be able to rely upon any agreement with him?
Mr. Jefferson, I suspect will not dare much Mr. Burr will [inserted in margin: dare every thing in
the sanguine hope of effecting every thing –]

Can you believe how low this has actually come to be?  How do you have a candidate for the American Presidency be this disgusting, and have millions idolizing him? How do you rationalize this with your children?  It’s nauseating.
