Podcast Moment du Jour

Here's Obama talking about the current situation and by that I mean here's Obama talking about what a shitshow disaster fuckwad Trump is: 

You know, one of the things that I spend a lot of time doing, working with younger leaders, is refuting the notion that things have never been worse. I say, no, no, you know what, Civil War, really bad.

Jim Crow, tough. And I say that not to try to pull rank on them, but rather to pull them out of any kind of sense of hopelessness about the situation.

I know when people say this they think they’re being reassuring, but if they’re right wouldn’t that just prove that since people did something once before they can do it again? How can “people have been exactly that capable of being terrible to each other so recently in our history that there’s plenty of video footage of it” possibly be more reassuring than “nobody’s ever done that before”?

Also, when was the last time I mentioned Obama here? I MISS YOU BUDDY 😭😭😭😭
