In fairness, I do make a ton of ####posts.

You don't get to 20k posts without a majority of them being of low quality.

Yeah the mayor that lolled at the 'ape in heels' comment isn't mayor anymore.

Twitter has been the downfall of so many public officials. It's hilarious.

I just can't imagine living in a social circle where you think you could just say that kind of thing and it would just be kosher.

That's amazing.

"It just made my day. Not the horribly racist part, the change in the White House part. The horribly racist part is so commonplace I didn't even notice it honestly."

Well now she has no job so she can find a social circle where it's just dandy. A mayor replied "That just made my day" and she has now resigned. They can start their own circle.

Just one time I'd like to see someone own it. "Yeah, I'm a 100% racist" instead of "But my friends tell me I'm not a racist!". Trump won, let the inner racist out (so we can mark you appropriately for future reference).

Pffft, I'm half that and mine are all junk now.

I used to care, I don't know what happened.

This is kind of how I felt after watching Obama yesterday, he's trying really hard to keep it positive but not lie that Trump's team is completely prepared.

Colbert had this moment from the press secretary. Go to 5:13.

Is the nude modeling the classy or the dignified part of the new First Lady?

Interesting that she did what most decent people do when they put themselves in that situation. Trump has said and did much worse in vast quantities and never had the decency to be embarrassed at all - and look where he is now . . .

I wouldn't be surprised to see more of the later to arise along with the spike in hate crimes that Trump has kicked off.

Chris Christie wouldn't last 15 seconds against Palin.
