Aside from your crème brûlée not being crunchy enough or your helicopter-limousine's wet bar being insufficiently stocked, when the fuck have you ever faced even a millisecond of discomfort in your entire entitled life?
I retract a bit.

It was probably "discomforting" when mom said dad raped her.

And it was probably "discomforting" when 20+ other women said it too.

And it was probably "discomforting" when dad took out a full page ad calling for the execution of 5 innocent black men.
And it was probably "discomforting" when dad called Mexicans rapists and murderers.

And it was probably "discomforting" when you saw all those kids dad was locking in cages.

And it was probably "discomforting" when dad and stepmom were pushing birtherism.

THREAD: Family got "swabbed" today

1. Calling it a "swab" conjures up visions of a Q-Tip, which is wrong. It's far more like one of those plastic, serrated toothpicks.

2. The test wasn't as bad as I had expected (disclaimer: wife says was worse than she had)

3. But...

The only word to describe the overall experience is "dystopian."

Like, Disney from hell.

To be absolutely clear... the people were amazing, warm, calming and I couldn't be more thankful.

But the experience? It was the stuff of science fiction nightmares of my youth.

First, there is the gate and the masked officer who was NOT, in fact, just waving hi to me as I initially thought. He verifies you have an appointment before you enter the maze of orange traffic cones that lies ahead like I hadn't seen since getting my learner's permit.

Golly, I wonder why so many Republicans would be supporting Bernie?

See, Election of 1972.
In '72, Republicans already knew Nixon was a crook.

Democrats nominate McGovern, a Senator from South Dakota. At the time, McGovern was about as liberal (progressive) as it got in politics.

What happened?

Plenty of moderate Democrats didn't turn out and, instead of staying home, Republicans did turn out against the liberal boogeyman.

Electoral Scorecard?

Nixon - 520
McGovern - 17

I lost my dad 5 years ago. He lost his when he was 14. This picture of him (far left) with my grandma and my uncles is something else.

My uncle Paul passed many years ago. Try to tell me he couldn't have been a movie star. Instead, he went to Vietnam. He returned and was never the same.

2/
On top of his severe PTSD, he suffered a bad motorcycle crash and lived the rest of his life riddled with paranoia, anxiety disorders, and even the kids at my summer camp knew him as "the crazy guy." They weren't shy about saying that to me either.

As we all watch @JoeNBC & @morningmika clutch their pearls over the #Nats fans last night, let's just recall a few of their better moments that brought us to where we are.

1. Trump was brilliant to avoid taxes...

businessinsider.com/morning-joe-tr…
@JoeNBC @morningmika 2. Hillary was just a big fat liar about her secret email server...

@JoeNBC @morningmika 3. That time Joe said Hillary was wrong to seek recounts, but Trump was just fine having questioned the validity of the results... before the results were in.
