F*ck Outrage

The Marc Rich pardon sparked *bipartisan* outrage. We could use the same now. https://t.co/UvkxmnnQyT

Outrage over Bill Clinton (for many things) mostly ginned up by Republicans but taken “appropriately seriously” by Democrats led directly to the presidency of Donald Trump. It was that outrage that attached to Hillary Clinton and wouldn’t wash off.

So I say again: fuck outrage. We’ve had enough of it. It’s past time we stopped acting like petulant children and began behaving like adults again.

Stay tuned https://t.co/bBpuDxrafz

If I get outraged, would that help?

One funny thing is that Trump also released a 14-minute video ranting about the election being stolen from him and urging his supporters to rise up and demand it be un-stolen and it has barely registered.
