    Author of the book is Oliver Libby [nominative determinism]

    This will go great as a slogan for Bane memes, as ‘strong floor, no ceiling’ essentially describes a pit.

    When the ceiling is the limit to the extent an individual has power over society’s production and eventually the government itself, it turns out that it kind of undermines your ability to have a floor to not have a ceiling.

    Hear me out I have this groundbreaking idea. What if we make a communist party, but we call it something else instead. We’ll sneak it in, nobody is going to be able to see it, they’ll look at the party and say: “Who are those people? Must be my party, says it right there.” And there it is, we will win like this, so simple. Genius.

    The minority leader is trying out a venture capitalist’s new book title, “Strong Floor, No Ceiling,” as the Democrats’ centrist answer to “Make America Great Again.”

      venture capitalist’s

      It’s wild how fiction has to make sense and be plausible but reality just does whatever it wants however much it’s on the nose.

      I keep trying to mothball “fiction/reality” jokes because I’ve overused them to death at Hexbear. But - once again - it’s too juicy for me to resist.

      Somebody should secretly follow all of Jeffries aides around everywhere and record everything they say. He and his aides must bathe 24/7 in sauceless and weird stuff. What Jeffries says publically is surely the tip of the iceberg.
