Some wisdom from Charlie Pierce: I have NO patience with the endless sops to the people who looked at the USA and decided that just what we needed was to have it run for a while by a Manhattan real-estate grifter and career public nuisance because he was going to bring jobs and money back to a bunch of states he very likely couldn't find on a map.

Holy mother of god, I'm tired of reading quotes from people who live in places where the local economy went to hell or Mexico in 1979, and who have spent the intervening years swallowing whatever Jesus Juice was offered up by theocratic bunco artists of the Christocentric Right, and gulping down great flagons of barely disguised hatemongering against the targets of the day, all the while voting against their own best economic interests, now claiming that empowering Donald Trump as the man who will "shake things up" on their behalf was the only choice they had left.

You saddled the rest of us with misrule and disaster. Own it.
