Clearly Trump being elected 2 weeks prior to the end of season one, and everything associated with Trump since that time could take up spots 1-200 on this list — but let’s try and keep this as trump free as possible

We had a congressman - Steve Scalise - shot at a baseball practice for a congressional baseball game - which is very scary stuff

White Nationalism at Charlottesville ripped open longtime wounds and shined a spotlight on how emboldened racists and racist nationalism have become

Hurricane’s wreaked Havoc on Houston and in Florida but most notably destroying a modern day way of life in Puerto Rico - a way of life “electricity and fresh water” that is still not fully back on the island for its citizens

Patriots Falcons Super Bowl 51 Hot Takes & Women's March in DC Hot Takes

P-word Power March hot takes - Women’s March on Washington 

Amazing to see that many people (mainly comprised of women) band together around the nation - and throughout parts of the world

Couple questions / takes

Where was this mobilization and energy during october and november? More importantly why wasn’t it there? Were people too confident that Hillary would prevail? 

Can women band together like that to drive the result of the 2018 midterm elections? 

They only way to beat small minded voters and essentially Tea Party voters is by finding a way to get Congress Back — essentially it’s time to think globally and act locally about politics and liberals have a nasty habit of being less focused during the midterm elections. The issue is 2/3’s of congress gets elected during the midterm elections. 

I’m starting with the man in the mirror on this one — i’ve only voted in a midterm election once, and starting in 2017 I will. I’m even going to start voting every local elections

We are less than 22 months away from the midterm elections — the nasty women need to nasty then — do you think they can sustain this momentum? And/or summon it when it’s time? And to all the “Dead Beat voters” aka the 50% of the electorate who sat 2016 out — get your crap together and vote — even if you right in mickey mouse — do not no show — it’s a shame that 25% of the country voted for this guy and he won cuz 50% of the country didn’t give a crap — and i’d say the same for hillary winning.

Aziz Ansari’s Saturday Night Live hot take — The Closet Racists who have flung open the closet because they think Trump winning is a license to be openly racist are really jamming things up. One: The majority of the country won’t be swayed to be racist Two: Trump got elected because of how many “never hillary people existed” — Next time, he ain’t facing hillary and the non-racist Trump voters are going to run away screaming from this now openly racist base of voters

Home about the split screen image of Obama’s 2009 inauguration and Trump’s in 2017— Very Telling. 

Outlandish ideas to agitate Trump and his supporters for the next 4-8 years

1. Jon Stewart needs a new weekly show on HBO dedicated to Slamming Donald and his Cronies 
2. Jon Stewart’s show should coax Rage Against the Machine to Reunite and become Stewart’s house band
3. If Zach De La Rocha won’t rejoin Rage - Bruce Springsteen Should — this would really tick of Rosco P of Drilling 3’ by the way 
4. Michael Bloomberg should run as a Republican in the 2020 Primary - Forcing Donald’s hand to spend money to get nomination
5. Michael Bloomberg should then run as in Independent in the 2020 General Election — 67% change Either he’ll win, or the Dem nominee will win and trump will get way less than total of 50% of total vote — further diminishing his fake mandate 
6. People should refer to Trump as “Interim President” until and unless he can win a second term in 2020
