Friday Night Open Thread

I love me a movie twist.

For instance, the twists at the end of Planet of the Apes, The Usual Suspects, The Sixth Sense, and such either change the whole film, or provide a shocking twist on another shocking element (such as in The Sting).

Sometimes, though, the twist isn’t enough, as this video adequately explains.

Oh, SPOILERS!

I actually liked a couple of these. Well, maybe one. Maybe two. And I’m not sure if they left out Sleepaway Camp because they though the twist saved the film, or if they forgot about it, or if they just didn’t think it’s enough of a twist. It’s enough of a twist. And it doesn’t save the film. They just forgot about it.

No surprise what comes next, though. It’s Friday Night Open Thread. Time for you to offer your twist on things.

Stop Trying to Prove Trump Is Awful

Hey, want to hear the 7,543rd instance of Trump saying something in the past that directly contradicts what he’s saying now? If you’re on the fence about Trump, I’m sure this will finally convince you about him.

The media and the opposition are still trying to gather further evidence that Trump is awful, like there are people out there who aren’t settled on that issue. The late night comedians are still trying to mock Trump even though he’s already this glorious spectacle of which they have nothing to add. So basically, no one has learned anything.

The focus is on how awful Trump is, but the issue — and the reason he was elected — is how awful everyone else is. The other politicians. The media. They think it goes without saying they’re much smarter and better than Trump, when they are regarded by much of the population as worse than him. And that they’re still refusing to face that.

Trump is this obvious clown, but Barack Obama was an idiotic, incompetent clown too and they won’t admit it. All of Congress is full of useless, terrible people, but the Dems new slogan is reportedly “A Better Deal: Better Skills, Better Jobs, Better Wages.” How many idiots are left who believe anyone in D.C. can deliver any of those things?

But it’s still the current message from the “opposition” that if you don’t like Trump, go back to the usual incompetent idiots that will continue to screw things up as they always have while the media tells you that you’re the dumb ones. On our current course, Trump will go into 2020 with a 20% approval rating and easily win reelection. And I’m sure the usual suspects will be baffled.
