Side discussion: I don't use the word "circus" anymore for politics
We've probably all done it: "this is a circus", etc.
But a friend of mine is a circus performer and she just convinced me to stop saying that.
A circus is an incredibly skilled and controlled presentation of the illusion of chaos. This government is the real thing.
No circus performer would ever be as unprofessional or unskilled as the shit we see from Republicans right now.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
