Norton the First posted:I feel as though Perot had a kind of weirdo charm to him, plus the proto-Trumpian anti-NAFTA stuff. That's the thing, there's at least gotta be an angle other than "rich guy." Yeah, it was a weird time. He probably had a point about NAFTA, though the deficit hawkishness would've been counter-productive in 1992. He was basically mute on abortion, which you couldn't possibly get away with today. I wonder how he does in the counterfactual universe where he didn't drop out before jumping back in. And 18% is the best a third party candidate has done in the last 100 years.

There was a third party candidate in living memory who carried five, though it's hard to say that he isn't an argument for the two party system...

I am 100% convinced that the spell of hell dimension can only be broken if someone, anyone, of importance calls Donald Trump a fat retard to his face, because it's very clear that his entire life has been spent with literally everyone he meets saying it as he walks away. Chuck, Nancy, Pence, Mitch, Koch Brothers, Trudeau, Merkel, SOMEBODY, PLEASE, just look this fucker right in the eyes and call him dumb fat retarded bitch and put an end to all of this.

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/why-so-loyal-trump-convinced-dems-would-cavequote:President Donald Trump saw his convictions about loyalty upended over the shutdown, harboring shock that Democrats didn’t come over to his side and resentment that he couldn’t keep his own house in order. congrats, we had a 35-day shutdown because trump thought the dems would cave over the border-wall issue when literally 2 months ago they won a huge flood of house seats solely on the basis of opposing donald trump and his policies. it's true that people had opposed pelosi being speaker but that doesn't mean they'd be willing to give trump what they want...

Lol at Trump being baffled over ppl being loyal to their cause or towards their own group. No surprise since he doesn't understand loyalty in person but it's still funny he's whining about it out loud. In other news, the US has dropped out of the top 20 on the CPI for the first time since 2011. Trump derangement syndrome???? "The low score comes at a time when the US is experiencing threats to its system of checks and balances as well as an erosion of ethical norms at the highest levels of power." https://www.transparency.org/news/pressrelease/corruption_perceptions_index_2018 Oh, look, Finland is in third place
