Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Annnnnd There We Have It

A brown person dared to criticize the Trump Administration's inadequate response to Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.  Trump responded with racial-tinged invective, implying that Puerto Ricans are lazy moochers who want everything done for them.

At least Dubya feigned concern for the people of New Orleans after Katrina.  His response still sucked, but he knew enough not to be a dick about it.  Trump?  Congenitally incapable of not being a dick.

Thanks, Republicans.
