‘Star Trek’ saw it coming

March 7, 2017 by Dave Knadler

You run out of metaphors to explain Trump. In the shit-hits-the-fan scenario, is Trump the fan, or is he the shit? In the Hitler scenario, is Trump really Hitler, or is he Mussolini’s feckless brother Doug? In the comet-destroys-Earth scenario, is Trump the comet, or is he just a guy on his toilet, tweeting […]

Papers, please

February 22, 2017 by Dave Knadler

Imagine if all those thousands of bored, unfriendly TSA screeners at the airports were turned loose to harass folks on the street. That’s sort of how Trump’s deportation plans are shaping up. Instead of you going to them, they’ll be coming to you. Taking off your shoes will no longer suffice. Now they’ll have […]

Words to live by

February 16, 2017 by Dave Knadler

You get used to President Trump blowing bullshit, but this has to rank as the most inelegant non sequitur in the history of presidential remarks. Here’s Trump on Wednesday, fielding a question about the “sharp rise in anti-Semitic incidents across the United States:” Well, I just want to say that we are, you know, […]

February 10, 2017 by Dave Knadler

No matter what happens with Trump’s dumb travel ban, we’re nearly certain to see another ISIS-inspired attack sometime this year. But that’s not the scary thing. The scary thing is that Trump and Bannon will be absolutely delighted when it happens. It’s been nearly eight months since the last big incident, in which an […]

It’s a buyer’s market

February 4, 2017 by Dave Knadler

In the tragic wake of the Bowling Green Massacre, you’d think people would be lining up at gun stores. That’s the normal response when guns are used to kill large numbers of Americans at a single sitting: People immediately think to themselves, “hey, how better to honor the memory of the victims than by […]

Worst of both worlds

February 2, 2017 by Dave Knadler

Not all morons are assholes, and not all assholes are morons. In a nutshell, morons are people who don’t know what they’re doing, and assholes are people who don’t care. Very few of either category wind up president of the United States. So now that we have a president who is both a moron […]

Some kind of president

January 14, 2017 by Dave Knadler

President-elect Trumpachev. Every day it’s a new fucking travesty with this guy. On the day after the election I dared hope he might not be as bad as I thought. I was right: He’s much, much worse. He’s the most unpopular president-elect in history. I wonder why? He can’t articulate a single policy beyond […]
