Trump voters feign offense at Hillary's endless depredation, but that's obviously not true... They wanted a proxy for their eternally squashed personalities of the 8th grade, for which that orange guy from the cheapjack teevee show had proven to be a compelling exemplar. It was never about decency.

It's like when little boys would watch Batman, and then go out the next afternoon and pretend to be crime-fighters with their friends. Mostly they wanted to imagine winning fistfights no matter what.

Maybe that was harsh...

...Naw.

If corruption isn't what offends Trump voters, why have preference at all?

Under Obama nearly all economic indicators went DOWN while Obama's net worth went UP 438%.

Under Trump nearly all economic indicators went UP while Trump's net worth has gone DOWN 16%.

Trump sacrificed for America. Obama sacrificed America for Obama.

The article stole my punch line...

The Seattle Times reported Monday night that Council President Bruce Harrell “without warning” scheduled a meeting for Tuesday to vote on repealing the $275-per-employee annual tax, with which the city hoped to raise $47 million annually to fund housing and anti-homelessness programs — a move widely praised by progressive activists nationwide.

According to the Times, Mr. Harrell, Mayor Jenny Durkan, and six other council members signaled their support for repealing the tax, which had provoked a furious backlash from businesses such as Amazon.

“Council members said polling and talks with constituents had persuaded them to change course,” the Times reported.

So, polio is making a come back in the western hemisphere? that's awesome. Now, if I understand things correctly, polio has one remaining source: infected humans.

One of the few remaining places you can find polio in the world is the tribal regions of Pakistan, which probably also extends into Afghanistan. That's troubling...

Yet another brick in the wall of "why normals don't trust the media".

If you want to know why polio was such a terrifying disease, read this. The book drags a bit in places, but it's worth the slog.

If Im doing the math right I will be 39 this year, 27 years ago in 1991 when I was 13, my 8th grade shop teacher was an odd fellow, the entire left half of his body was nearly 30% smaller than his right.

Seems he had had a MILD case of polio as a child
