Trump goading NFL players and other sports players to do or say something stupid is damn amazing. The sad part is it will happen.

Nah. The only thing Trump has goaded out has been a lot of comedy gold and easy victory laps.

Has Hillary issued a statement about Weiner? I mean, she lost horribly and it's best if she just never appears ever again and it's time to move on for everyone. Especially a loser like her. But did she say something? Why hasn't she said something? Is she hiding something? Shouldn't she be speaking about this? Why is Hillary suddenly hiding from the media? Does she have any comment on George Clooney's comments? Does she have any comment on Trump's NFL and NBA comments? Oh my god why won't Hillary speak up about any of this?!?!? Why is the media not trying to uncover what Hillary is hiding? Where is Hillary hiding? Is Hillary hiding with Huma? Does Huma have a a statement on Weiner? Does Hillary have a statement on Huma's statement? Why is she just handing this issue to Bernie to exploit? Whatever, I never supported her anyway. Look at how she treats us. And her refusal to address every outstanding issue is a real slap in the face. Why Hillary why? What were wire hangers doing in this closet Hillary?

That's why I did a double take when I saw it. I thought maybe Trump got trolled again, like when he retweeted pics of a serial killer that someone said was their Trump supporting grandfather.

I guess trying to bribe Collins by securing enough money and legislation exceptions that they could essentially keep Obamacare in Alaska, while they screw the rest of the country that expanded Medicaid, just wasn't enough.

Time for Trump to take a Twitter shot at Michael Jordan or something.

That tweet is so hilariously vile that feel that Trump genuinely didn't make the connection between US and Puerto Rico and that people would generally want to help their own regardless of economic and geographical differences. I thing that is genuinely more detestable that his whole NFL debacle.

I'm stunned that Jerry Jones went out and kneeled with the Cowboys.  Genuinely shocked.  I didn't think he would tolerate any of his players kneeling, let alone that he would join them.  Good on him.

I couldn't even have decent NFL small talk this week at work without getting bogged down in politics talk. I thought this would be the one safe haven that Trump couldn't ruin. ::shakes fist::

Proposed Republican tax plan:
[The standard deduction would almost double to $12,000 for a single filer and $24,000 for married couples,]

Wouldn't this make it nearly impossible for the average middle class person to itemize their taxes? Seems like a bad trade off for some people.
