Fear and Loathing in 2018: How Hunter S. Thompson would vote today

"Yeah, Conservative Jerks, We on the Left Did Have a Problem with Obama's Detention of Kids, But Trump's Far Worse "

There are two times in my life when I felt Hunter S Thompson, the infamous gonzo journalist who wrote Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, had missed out on something big. The first was in 2000 when my then boss and Time Magazine editor Walter Isaacson invited Thompson (who had just contributed a cover story) to join us on a reporting trip to Burning Man.

Thompson had never been, and was curious — but balked at the last minute when he learned the event wouldn't let him bring any of his precious guns. He died 5 years later. I often wonder what the ultimate freak writer would have made of the ultimate freak festival.

And Obama thought it might make Republicans finally make some kind of deal on immigration. Obama's problem was always that he thought he was dealing with honorable humans when he was really dealing with the syphilitic whores and deranged weasel-fuckers of the GOP, and those craven cocks were only there to piss on anything Obama wanted. Obama tried to get Republicans to devote more resources to processing people at the border and at ports of entry, but, well, Republicans.

Honestly, Obama should have called me. I could have told him he was trying to deal with evil motherfuckers who don't give a rat's ass about this country. #climatechange
