Complacency is definitely part of it, but is it any surprise so many voted for Trump secretly when people along these lines predominate a big chunk of the media?

I think the media are really made up more of boring, upper middle class, white people in ugly suits who no one listens to in the first place.

I'd have two problems with that picture. One, "Porn, probably". Huh? You might as well point an arrow at Trump and say "child molester/rapist, probably" with regard to his daughter. But there's no proof. It could just as easily be a graph or a movie or a defaced picture of Hillary or ****ing anything on the screen. That takes ultra-lame to new lows. Also, why is Trump labelled as "failed steak tycoon" when, love him or hate him, he is obviously a very successful real estate tycoon?

Because he had a steak business that failed.

In recent history American politics has comprised of conservatives and conservative-lites so nothing is ever being done for the majority of voters and so they just look at their life and go "yup still ****" and protest vote the other party in

Of course it's not an exact science. Although, I will say FDR is an unfair comparison - he got us out of the Depression AND a world war. People were pretty happy with the way he did things.

Yeah but it ignores the fact that his other businesses were successful. It's just annoying. You can fail at this but be wildly successful at that. Do people then remember you for when you failed at this or when you made it at that?

Bitter partisan political memes are rarely thesis-level social commentary.

I would've given Chula **** for it but he acknowledged that it's lame so he gets a pass on this one.
