Which would be fun if Trump wins reelection.
I, too, would enjoy to see certain heads explode in that case. But I would also enjoy to see another set of heads explode if Biden wins. I can't quite decide yet which one would be more fun.
Take a tour through WTF and TNCR and tell the the personality types that are more unstable around whichever politician happens to be elected. Or extrapolate that to pop culture in general. Or even better yet, eschew the common tack of equalizing both political sides and explore the systematic psychological differences between the two. Self selected groups should be fruitful for such explorations.

The only truly terrible President in my lifetime was Jimmy Carter. Too young to remember Gerald Ford. It’s just the oppressiveness of having to listen to facist idealists that bothers me and why I would like to see them lose.

There was a lot of "We defend anonymous sources, just look at Deep Throat!" talk today.
Deep Throat told them where to look. But they still produced their own hard evidence. That's a huge difference.
Please love yourself.

Exactly. That kind of comparison is weak. Do the "legwork," Mr. "Journalist," don't report what unnamed people tell you.

Atlantic, where is your promised follow up?

So, do we believe John Bolton? If so, then we should believe the things he said also in his book, no?

Like I said bizarre. But the Atlantic has its work cut out for it.
