Fun tidbit from "Team of Vipers" that the Washington Post has been excerpting: when Trump shows visiters around the White House, he tells them that the dining room had a big hole in the wall when he moved in and that Obama used sit in there and "watch basketball all day." I'm surprised he didn't add that there were piles of fried chicken bones and watermelon rinds.
The amazing horrifying exhausting depressing thing about the Trump admin is that the endless tsunami of bullshit, racism, and insantiy has rendered jaw-dropping grotesqueries all but invisible, supplanted as they are within the minute by further assaults on whatever shreds of decency we still cling to.
At this point, Trump could do the SOTU in blackface and just go "booga booga booga" for 20 minutes and all it would do would be to firm up his poll numbers with his base.
That which doesn't kill you weakens you slightly and makes you less able to cope until you're completely incapacitated
