Joe Biden is now POTUS

"Under Senate rules, Sanders has the ability to keep the chamber in during the holiday week and likely mess with the campaign schedules of Sens. David Perdue (R-Ga.) and Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.). Those two face Jan. 5 runoff races for control of the Senate against Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, who are both campaigning on the $2,000 checks," Politico reported.


"A source close to Sanders said the Senate races were a factor in his decision — part of a bid to keep Perdue and Loeffler in D.C. and focus the campaign on their position regarding the $2,000 checks. Sanders also threatened to shut down the government earlier this month if the coronavirus relief bill did not include direct payments; ultimately it included checks of up to $600 and the government stayed open, though now Trump wants to go much higher," Politico noted.

Both of the Democrats in the races are running on $2,000 aid, which is also supported by President-elect Joe Biden.








 
Pretty much this. You can't look at how the world has shaken out post-Obama and pretend that effective messaging was the issue at hand.

There are people now, even after four years of Trump doing exactly what they accused Obama of doing or worse, that will still have the same baseless claims about Obama. They'll still talk about how Obama didn't do enough worked, golfed too much, embarrassed the country internationally, was divisive and wouldn't reach out to political opponents. They'll still try to say these things with a straight face. Because it was never about truth with them.

And Obama wasn't perfect. I would love to deep dive some of the things he could have done better or differently. But I'll be damned if I'm going to be the springboard some asshole uses to try to confirm that "black people weren't happy with him, either". I'll keep my critiques low key, and share them in trusted company.

One big takeaway for me in all of this is reconfirming that all of the white folks that were scared of Obama with power and didn't trust him with it got exposed for what they are. Because when the (allegedly) rich white guy that spouted the hate they like weilded that same power in uglier fashion, they didn't say shit. In fact, a lot of them liked it. So it was never about having "too much power" for them. They just didn't like the person with the power.
THIS.
 
I really don’t care, do you?


Trump fumes that first lady Melania was overlooked by major magazines

201226-melania-trump-magazines.jpg


First lady Melania Trump hasn’t been “in Vogue” — or other fashion mags — nearly enough, President Trump said this week.

Not a single major magazine has featured the former model on its cover during her husband’s presidency, prompting the Commander in Chief to vent on Christmas about the lack of attention.

He shared a tweet from Breitbart News on Christmas Day complaining how “the elitist snobs in the fashion press have kept the most elegant First Lady in American history off the covers of their magazines for 4 consecutive years.”


Melania Trump is “the greatest of all time,” Trump added.


A count by the Daily Mail found by contrast, Michelle Obama, graced at least 12 magazine covers during her time in office — including three for Vogue alone.

“First Lady Melania Trump departed the White House for Palm Beach, Florida on Wednesday in a sleek ensemble with knockout thigh-high leather boots,” gushed Breitbart’s in-house fashion guru John Binder, alongside images of the first couple departing the White House to spend Christmas at Mar-a-Lago.

The website additionally reported she was wearing an Azzedine Alaïa wool coat which retails for a cool $6,610.

Maybe something called "class" is a part of the criteria???
