"Quick! Look over there at that dumpster fire!"

There are important issues we could be discussing

Or we could talk about whether its right for The Don to attack the deceased John McCain

GOP senator says he's fed up with Trump's attacks on McCain
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Mar 20, 2019, 10:19 AM ET

... Johnny Isakson of Georgia is quoted Wednesday as telling The Bulwark conservative news and opinion website that "nothing is more important than the integrity of the country and those who fought and risked their lives for all of us" ...

Trump has escalated his feud with McCain in recent days, saying he was "never a fan" of the former GOP presidential candidate and "never will be." Over the weekend, Trump renewed his long-running grievances in some caustic tweets.

McCain's daughter Meghan McCain called Trump's life "pathetic."

And there are other important issues we could be discussing

Or we could debate the expertise Junior and The Don bring to the UK's Brexit confusions:

... In an op-ed published Tuesday in the London-based Telegraph, Donald Trump Jr. said the failure of the country to navigate an exit from the EU by the deadline is an example of how establishment elites try to subvert the will of the people. Trump Jr. likened Brexit to the political landscape of the U.S., in which he said Democrats and "deep-state operatives" have been "colluding to subvert the will of the American people" ...


It seems some people want to learn less and less about more and more, until finally they know nothing about anything

Meanwhile there still are other important issues we could be discussing
