So the electors were paid to vote for a specific candidate by monied interests, and it happened to be the candidate who won the plurality of votes in every state? That’s a remarkable coincidence.

Wait? I missed it?

Let’s head to the polls and support Trump’s most viable opponent.

They should adopt our free enterprise tariffs coming shortly.

The usual suspects got here quickly.

We need to arm good people with knives so they can stop the bad people with knives.

You’re right. Making a mistake is bad parenting.

I think the difference is we already had Trump as President. Thinking he might be good now is admitting you have no idea how he was the first time.

Got it.

Yeah, this one landed very badly. I try to find balance between too obvious and too cryptic. I figured I would get knee jerk reactions but it seems even when pointing the second part out readers don’t get it.

If almost everyone is confused by your joke, you didn’t tell it well.

I think people are kids into their 20s. Or colloquially, your children stay your kids their whole lives.

Cue someone writing, “Well actually, the comment was referencing the user CharlesDarwin and not the theologian turned naturalist.”

Did you read until the end?

I see that people didn’t see the comment by Charles Darwin and/or didn’t read my entire comment.

Well, actually, a minor is not a kid. Charles Darwin hypothesized that during the evolution of our species, people would tend to cue a fight they anticipated would happen in hopes it would then not happen.

“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”

I read some of the comments from AOC’s constituents. Many of them were not smart people either.

If you want to learn what it takes to sway dumb people, you can run a very unethical campaign like Trump’s and get the Presidency.

Your wife and young son, plus a sturdy axe.

When has he ever paid his lawyers out of his own pocket?

While I sympathize with your point of view, there are also people who can afford it, need it badly, but don’t use it.

I think we have to consider it different. In Back to the Future and Looper, one could travel to a past where another version of oneself exists. In Groundhog Day and edge of Tomorrow, the character travels back to become that version of his self again and again. The character can remember and learn, but isn’t cloning himself.
