    I confess to being a member of the cabal of 80 million that stole the election.

    He’s the perfect Larry King, a string of non-sequiturs all revolving around himself and name dropping.
    Ann Margret? Fucked her. Grace Kelly loved me, wanted me to run the casino at Monte Carlo. Rao’s is a dump. Wouldn’t eat there. Every lawyer tells me I’m the best lawyer ever. Should’ve appointed myself to Supreme Court. Everyone says I woulda been da best.

    Isn’t talk of “Real Americans,” mocking avocado toast eating urbanites or people who “haven’t made a payroll” also condescension?

    He does not have to. He can either find a way to buy OAN or Newsmax or make a deal with them, using his name for marketing as he has for many years in the hotel business. Otherwise he could sign a deal with Fox as one of their commentators, since they are not troubled by facts either. I know he's bashing Fox now, but let Murdoch offer him a contract with enough zeros in it and he'll be right back to singing its praises.

    Glenn Beck attempted that years ago. The results weren't pretty.

    But they're so cute.

    Agreed. It will be more like Rush Limbaugh than Larry King. I look for Rusty to not take kindly to this, either.

    Rusty is teeing off on 18 and there is little light left on the course.

    Painting all Dems as “elites” ignores reality. There are only 3.6 million in the “Top 1%” of our 360M. That’s a fact. So no 80M voters can’t Ll be elites. It’s just an attempt by the rich GOPers IN POWER to distract and they e been damn effective.

    WAKE UP EVERYBODY (Harold Melvin shout out) it’s not a class divide. It’s about tax cuts for the rich vs taxation to help others along with supposed family values vs compassion for those no religious. It’s not a class war.

    correct. Go to any fast food restaurant in America that serves coffee, and you’ll have a gaggle of white Trump voters sitting around all morning swapping jokes about how dumb liberals are.

    Pretending to be upset by “condescension” is a bad-faith deflection to distract from the racism.

    They are also sitting around, not working, complaining about how slow the government is in processing their disabilities checks, and their kids disability checks and how the stupid teachers are making way too much money.

    Our coverage area got Trump, Pence (twice), Don Jr. and Ivanka. Trump lost our county by 15 points and 18,000 votes en route to losing the state by 7 points. In 2016, he lost by 11 points and 13,000 votes en route to losing the state by 1 1/2 points.
