Trump is a genius. I have to admit I never saw that coming.
I wonder if it can be tested.

There is a Brazilian saying: "Of genius and mad everybody as a little" (It sounds better in Portuguese).

The proportions may vary though, some go more towards genius, some go more towards mad.

Or, as the joke has it:

There's a thin line between genius and insanity. I have erased that line.

The Genius of the Carpathians didn't come out if it too well.

Is it just me, or is Bannon's back pedal terrifying?

Or as Bill Bailey said:

A lot of people say there's a fine line between genius and insanity. I don't think there's a fine line, I actually think there's a yawning gulf. You see some poor bugger scuffling up the road with balloons tied to his ears, he's not going home to invent a rocket, is he?

There is rumours Ophra will try to be nxt candidate for the Democrats and Ivanka for the Republicans.

Come on. There is 300 million people in that country. Can we get way from media stars and multimillion fashion stars? There must be people more qualified to be President.

Like Bernie Sanders?

It is like a Hollywood movie production. Who likes Tom Cruise? I hate movies with Tom Cruise because they are predictable and all about Tom Cruise. If there is a plot twist, it turns out to be Tom Cruise.
So why make Tom Cruise movies and pay him so much money per movie? Because people pay to see Tom Cruise movies. As a society we get the movies and governments we deserve.

Only true if voting isn't fixed.

[Little stoned kiwi]

Fixed or not, it wouldn't be much different. People are consumed by what they want instead of values.
The people who enjoy a movie that makes you think are heavily outnumbered by people who just want to 'switch their brain off'. To complicate things, the former like different movies for different reasons while the latter all go to see the new Tom Cruise movie.

Hilarious.
Real lawyers taking on a legal shill willing to write anything for his client as long as he gets paid.
I wish this would go to court, but that will never happen.
Chuck Harder is going to have to chuck a little harder.

Banon's out of Breitbart and likely pushed by the Mercers.

The Mercers, terrifying fuckers. Bankroller's of Trump, former funders of both Bannon and Milo and supplier of market data for social media to the leave campaign in the UK.

And why do they have such influence in the political sphere? They have a lot of money. See also Barclay brothers.
