Normally I keep CNN on during the day as background noise so I can hear the latest breaking news because they're pretty good for that at least. But my god Sunday mornings are the worst when they let this shitlib centrist bozo on to both sides why actually the democrats need to embrace racism to win.

Special second place shout out goes to Michael Smerconish who's another clueless boomer asshole who gets to go on for an hour on the weekend and complain about young people.

    oh man, I can't even deal with a TV running, let alone cable news. last time I was subjected to that was probably 7 years ago I was visiting a friend (lib) who was intently watching Zakaria, with his $300 hair it in a $4000 suit sit on a modernist barstool with one leg cocked and relaxed in front of the calming chromakeyed infinite blue horizon.

    he was blathering authoritatively about how Trump's cluster bombing of some airfield in central Asia under Russian control was when Trump became "presidential" and signaled an intent for America to reclaim it's recently lost moral authority.

    I spent the next minutes yelling at the TV questioning any perceived historical existence of America's moral authority, or that such a thing could be built by bombing infrastructure on the other side of the planet. and railing against libs as warmongering for being eager to grant trump a pass for everything else, simply because he went ahead and blew some shit up to fuck with the Russians.

    friend complained he couldn't hear zakeed's "analysis" over me.

    I think hearing that guy's voice kills brain cells.
