Yeah, the piece of crap still not caring about the deaths. Oh look! A tweet promoting his business.

Democrats are the best! I will never ever question a Democrat again. I LOVE the Democrats!
Fake news at best.
Delusional lies at worst.
The advice i would give to you is to continue.
Just like here in the UK, the best thing for the Conservatives was the Labour Party shooting themselves in the foot, you guys are doing the exact same thing in the USA.
Left is killing itself from within.
Trump has already won.
Yes, Trumpsters also like to scream, "FAKE NEWS" whilst supporting a guy who lies constantly. Once again, that means nothing coming from you guys.
I'm. A. Conservative.
I get that is difficult for you Trumpsters to grasp, but dealing with facts and reality was never something you were terribly good at:

Now, Trump is fake news. He's also a shitty racist.
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect. There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time. --Frank Wilhoit
White House advisor Hassett goes on CNN and CBS to admit we're looking at 20% unemployment.
I'll clarify: I'm guessing he's talking about official unemployment. A Trump supporter has to rate it much higher, of course, based on Trump's 42% claim earlier.
Hassett also predicted what he called growth, but an honest person would call recovery, in Q3 and Q4.
The range of topics is anything from Andrew Jackson (and the notorious White House cheese) to Hugh Glass (the real story behind the Revenant film) to "The Marblehead Smallpox Riots" (which proves that the anti-vacc/"herd immunity" arguments we're seeing today have been with us forever and from the same dipshits). From the 1600's to current day. They are primarily American-centric since that's the conceit of the podcast, but there are also a ton of Australia episodes, UK episodes and several EU countries (including the Netherlands) due to various tours. I'm always fascinated and/or horrified depending on the topic...but the comedy lessens the blow.
And then he waited 24 hours, and claimed he was being sarcastic and trolling the press (while facing his doctor, so we're clear)
Meaning, we're now in the part of the game where Trump can say anything from "the sky is blue" to "we begin bombing in 5 minutes" and we have to wait 24 hours to see if he claims he was being sarcastic.
Our history with that i mean all of mankind is rather dark and very confronting especially if you know how things were just a few life times ago. When you first start out with history in school you very much get a kid friendly version of it all, if that interest continues to stick with you as you get older there are quite a few moments in there where you go "We did WHAT?", Belgians and the Congo is one of those things for me.
I like to know where what happened regardless of region so it being mostly American-centric does not bother me, certain things are connected on some level.

Amen for that.
Terry Pratchett often referred to it as "lies to children", meaning we're given a very simplistic--and wrong--version of things to give us some form of basic understanding until we're old enough to comprehend the truth, which is in itself sometimes another level of "lies to children" until we further broaden our minds and flex our reasoning muscles.
Almost all of the topics they cover turn out dark in some sense or another, because as you said, all of our history is rather dark, but the past year or so they've been covering things (possibly intentionally) that are almost exactly what we're going through today. Their 2-parter on Reagan vindicated my belief that he was the previous version of Trump in a system that was slightly less broken.
This was a very disturbing read on the background of Trump's history of lying.

"The difference between stupidity
and genius is that genius has its limits."
--Alexandre Dumas-fils
Well both of them were figures know in the media for their personality, both of them were not political. Trump still isn't he does not really have a political ideology he simply picks whatever thinks will get him the most adoration and is steered into a certain direction by people around him much like Reagan.
Both of them had no real clue what they are doing and both of them are looking to be leaving a rather bad legacy if we look at it historically but kept alive as something great by a following. It wouldn't surprise me that trump will get something similar as the lie we now know as "reaganomics".
I think the only big difference might be is that unlike Reagan, trump won't remain silent because the media is far more open now.

So it runs in the family, it's a miracle the sister turned out sane.
