Democrats are sufficiently incompetent that they will eventually self-destruct even if their opponent does nothing other than harbor masturbatory fantasies. The threat of Iranian and North Korean missiles is illusory, yet they still overshadow important domestic issues. Only children would be entranced by racist depictions of the President and inflated concerns about deficit...

Submission: Invitation to a bludgeoning
