Google search results are mostly about stupid shit he says because ... that's 99% of what he says. Finding something intelligent or humane he says is like the proverbial needle in a haystack.

My Google-fu is not that strong.

Well, he did say that Kim Yung Un has a great personality and that he is a funny guy and very smart. So it's not all negative and vitriol.
Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

On top of the deliberate sowing of chaos in immigration courts, processes, and agencies; on top of DHS kidnapping kids and putting them in concentration camps; on top of ICE killing a baby and shrugging it off; on top of the neglect and mass death in Puerto Rico...there's this. It's state-sponsored ethnic cleansing.

Not wanting to sound insensitive, but why the fuck is McCain lying in state?
Does every senator lie in state or whats the deal there?

In the land of the brave and the free presidents and vice presidents are automatically granted the opportunity to lie in state. The honor may also be extended to military commanders and members of congress. The families of the dead must accept the offer.

Because he was a distinguished veteran, congressman, and senator for 40 years who showed how to run an opposition campaign (minus Palin).

Two admirals as father and grandfather doesn't hurt as well.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Ok.

Again, I wasn't trying to be facetious, it just struck me as odd, given he was never president, even at that do many former presidents lie in state? I genuinely don't know. State funerals here are quite uncommon

The White House shuffled him out the back door last week, but the actual Nazi working for Homeland Security also worked directly with Stephen Miller to shape actual immigration policy, among other things.
