Richard Cohen Suuuuuuuucks

Matt Yglesias over at Vox points out what a jackass Richard Cohen is:

Cohen’s career, I think, exemplifies the wisdom contained in that aphorism. He’s a guy who’s enjoyed a well-compensated, high-status, easy-to-do job for decades who nonetheless quite sincerely feels put upon by the fact that he lost a job to a woman sometime in the 1970s and sometimes get called a racist because he thinks young black men should be subject to discriminatory treatment.

He feels, on these grounds, a profound affinity for Trump voters. And because the demographic of put-upon older white men does, in fact, exert disproportionate influence over American social and economic institutions there continues to be a well-compensated and not-very-taxing job for him into his late 70s. 

"But Xmastime", you say in the voice of Craig “Ironhead” Heyward from those soap commercials (RIP), “didn't you call this bullshit years ago?" 

Sigh. OF COURSE I FUCKING DID, MANY, MANY TIMES!!!!
