Just keep going....
My thought was that someone who has been laughed at over something that you cannot change and is most likely result of chance- like a fly sitting on your head, would have a broader sense of human dignity, which I think is inherit in all people no matter if they are friends or enemies.
When your coworker walks out of the bathroom with his fly still open or finished his meal with food still sticking to his face, you would discreetly point it out or ignore it. If he turns it into a joke, you’ ll laugh with him.
If the same happens to your boss, which you have a grudge on because you found him treating you unfairly, will you take a picture and send it to all you coworkers and on facebook to have a good laugh?
I would hope not, but in these days, one cannot be sure.
To resort to ridiculing someone in political difference as well as the huge resonance it has, is a sign for me how far we have come from true political debate towards superficial fight for the vote of the popular twittering masses.
Now that’ doesn’t mean there is no place for the art of true cartoonists.

Just because the media you choose to believe never tells you what is actually going on in the world doesn’t mean nothing is actually going on in the world.
Trump has a legal right to contest the election. Think about what kind of crooks would try to silence his defence. Oh ya, losers.
That’s how you get a republican president and Democrat vp.
just because your Media tells you there is no evidence, doesn’t mean that is true.
But, enjoy your bubble, and then be shocked again like in 2016! And then don’t wake up again and keep following some twisted story that avoids reality.
I’ve got Trump at 90% for the win. This election will be thrown out. Lots of evil caught and reported. It can’t be undone.

Oddly it isn’t the media that says there is no evidence. It is judges, predominantly Republican judges. They are tossing out all these ridiculous challenges
i can’t for any reason see how people can think any differently. He lost. He lost the popular vote. He lost the electoral college vote, he hasn’t found any fraud. Recounts have not changed anything
judges are laughing at him. the world is laughing at him

Dan Dennett made the statement that cognizance is a delusion (in many cases) and thus very dramatic and shocking to those that don't see clearly because the glare from their passion on fire.
I was once told that if I didn't play golf with the leaders ... you wouldn't be part of the top level ... a statement of bottom line philosophy about hidden truth? Imagine truth being buried and ordinary people have to dig for it ... explains the buried talent fore shore ... it is beyond us when there is no critical process like once thunk in the night! A blow of hope ... knockson ...
Expect wittle exceptions! Possible carving of watermelons ... albeit the result would be whetted ... See Deis?
There is even a rumour that the President plays the dark game while his council is being placed in the precarious position of being disbarred for peculiar activities that go against democracy and democrats as emperors find them demonic ... divine drama?
This too may be beyond the normal and thus paranormal ... running aside the theme of par Alon ( Hebrew word). The latter being very ambiguous as root of English spinning ... it leis there as bottom griffon ...abstract Lei? Ba Tous, or my Babau ... resembling fracture ...
There may be no end to IT ... thus twittai ...

And just because the media you chose to believe tells you there's a conspiracy doesn't mean it's happening.
Trump does have a legal right to contest the election. It's not the media that's silencing him. It's the courts.
Ever wonder what it feels like to be entirely alone against an insane world regarding your seemingly position of losing it that you cannot accept in a right mind because you failed to to grasp what it is like to be against yourself?
I don't know ... but perhaps the POTUS could tell us if ever getting around to speaking of gospel! The elusive truth ... thus stuff escapes normal thought process ... thus generating paranormal functions ...

It has just occurred to me exactly what Trump's problem with conceding defeat is. I've never seen his television show, but I understand from hearsay/mimicry that his most famous phrase is "You're fired!" The American people have just said "You're fired!" to Donald Trump, and he never really thought he'd have to hear that publicly directed towards him.
To resort to making fun of Trump and his team is what everyone does. Including you. What right do you have to single me out and make an example of my disability because you want to make your point?
If it were anyone else here you wouldn't have said that. That's the point.
If my coworker had food stuck to his face - thinking of one in particular - I'd laugh first, while I pointed it out. And he'd be fine, because he has a sense of humour.
Also, laughing at the most powerful in the world for farcical mishaps is not the same as making fun of someone's physical disability. Trump did that too, though.

I think the "You're fired!" meme's been going around Twitter for years. I'm sure he's seen it.
In any case, he can't stand losing because his narcissism just can't handle it - and he's just not wired to be capable of accepting it like a grown up - so he'll concoct a fantasy - using media manipulation and propaganda - whereby he won, and get his narcissistic supply team, aka supporters and lackeys, to indulge him with rallies and tv attention as long as possible.
In Trump country strongholds in the south people are truly heartbroken, angry and dismayed that he lost. They can't believe it because everyone they know and every bit of media they watch supports him. It's quite the opposite elsewhere but they cannot and will not believe it. They are locked into his narrative, and the media channels that ignore all factual information to the contrary. They are living in an alternate universe and they believe exactly the opposite of the facts because he gets in front of the facts with grandiose lies. And that is scary. And then there are some of his supporters who know he's lying and they support him anyway because they enjoy watching him get away with lie after lie - they cheer it on. That's even scarier.
Like the Birther conspiracy - which plenty of its spreaders knew was about nothing other than racism, and they spread it anyway because they were unabashedly racist - he and his supporters could drag this election charade on for years after it's been officially concluded.

“Putin’s puppet” and a “favorite of the Russians,” information-gathering might have ceased by May 2016 if Clinton's campaign and the DNC hadn’t decided to continue funding it. Establishment media have again and again proven themselves willing marks for disinformation campaigns cooked up by both foreign and domestic 'intelligence' agencies.
George W. Bush in a speech days before invasion:
“Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised. This regime has already used weapons of mass destruction against Iraq’s neighbors and against Iraq’s people.”

“I’m neither left or right, just staying home tonight, getting lost in that hopeless little screen.” Leonard Cohen (from my fading memory)
Politics, whatever the form, is a means for minorities to manipulate the experience of majorities. High rhetoric is employed to reduce citizens to consumers. This is made plain in the thought of ancient and modern philosophers.
Our democracies are a sham, a spectator sport, presented to obscure the increasing global control by corporate powers. With prophets and poets of all times and places, I am deeply saddened as I watch the patterns of power lead us toward catastrophe.
“Come out of her, my people, so that you do not take part in her sins, and so that you do not share in her plagues; for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.” The Book of Revelations

I always sing scream instead of screen ... and keep on holding up that little wild bouquet.
Everybody's saddened.
I'm saddened by people who don't vote because they think both sides are exactly the same. I'm saddened that people still believe there's a centre line to walk that hasn't been shifted way over to the right. I'm saddened that people are falling down disinformation rabbit holes.

And all due respect to Leonard Cohen but he wasn't God himself, he was a flawed human with exceptional poetic talent (as were those who wrote the book of revelations) - and he hasn't been here to comment on the past 4 years. (Also he was Jewish and a Buddhist, and didn't believe in that book). He might be saying something else if he were alive.
Also, he died a day before Trump was elected. I'm confident that Cohen, like a regular guy, had a few expletive laden conversations around the kitchen table and shouted at his TV or computer screen, or newspaper a few times, in the year leading up to that election. And he probably wasn't saying both sides are equally wrong.

From the speech by Bush: “Free nations have a duty to defend our people by uniting against the violent.”
The irony is too deep for words. Among America’s ideological roots we find memories of indigenous persons and peoples massacred while their ancestral lands were appropriated for the growth of agriculture and the advance of industrialization.
This same pattern is exposed in the words of America’s Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright, who stated the death of half a million Iraqi women and children was necessary, in service to America’s expansionist agenda. They wanted oil and they did what it took to get it.
Bush did not attack Arabia either, he attacked an innocent country instead.
