  1. what's her face that communes with the spirits was laughed at all the time.
  2. I think it is assumed the wave size gets tamped down in Presidential years, though.
  3. for a lot of those: it's a product of the US slowly losing its place as the shining city on the hill. when it was unquestioned, it's easy to assume whatever we were doing was the best. majority=good. order=good. status quo=good. now you have wealth inequality, lack of economic opportunity, population crunches. things get questioned. as for 'melting pot = good', I doubt that was ever a majority opinion. it was just something people that wrote textbooks would pay lip service to. i don't think we need to catalog how every new group over the last 150 years was considered a plague on the pristine population that was here.
  4. Wow. That reads like Jussie Smollett except actually true. Good lord.
  5. I've seen too many polls to believe there will be any reckoning here. Rs start with about 190 electoral votes. He just needs 80 more to get it done. I don't think he will, but I think it will be very close and probably differs based on who is nominated.
  6. Pretty healthy win in Texas for Trump over any D. https://www.texastribune.org/2019/11/04/democrats-dont-have-candidate-who-would-beat-trump-texas-today-poll/
  7. It’s the best defense they have and I hope Ds have been working on how to counter it. Best is to workshop the best one sentence summary of the act in terms that are obviously corrupt. “We cannot allow a president to [undermine elections] by [inviting foreign interference] [trading our military for political favors]”. Something that no one can dismiss as innocent. Workshop it, repeat it ad nauseum.
  8. I literally have no idea what the Addams family one is even saying. I get hunters hand in the cookie jar. I get the whistleblower is unknown. Everyone else is just a drawing of a someone in character of the show.
  9. Remember the “deliverable” Trumps team had been insistent on: not an investigation, but the public announcement of the investigation. that should clue you in to whether he was getting political advantage as an ancillary benefit to carrying out his duties, or if the political issue was the goal itself.
  10. He’s going to lose this fight because shifty Schiff and nervous Nancy are weak nicknames and “perfect call” is too dumb even for his base to repeat.
  11. Can't wait for the DOTARD gloat tweet. Predicting a Robert Francis comment.
  12. lower approval and lower disapproval than cruz. weird. almost as much undecided about a multi-term senator as either the approves or disapproves.
  13. no gay person has ever had that sloppy of handwriting.
  14. Thinking about this morning how much of the news is focused on proving the actions were wrong. Here, circumstantial evidence of knowledge of guilt. Yesterday's went the other way with testimony that the dude said he "didn't think anything was concerning" about the call. With Watergate, you had a break-in. Something people could point to and say that was wrong and it was understandable at the 2nd grade level. D's have a lot harder job this time than in the 70s.
  15. couldn't spring for the officially licensed MAGA hat. SAD! also, can you imagine this kid having a little bit of something inside him and growing up and doing something? he's a pediatrician in 40 years or something, with this pic out there. incredible.
  16. yeah, crimes don't count if you declare bankruptcy.
  17. haha. an actual quote. "I wasn't even a racist yet." is wonderful on its own. Add in the very true parenthetical: "I wasn't even a racist yet (until I spent some more time at A&M)"
  18. Jesus is the son of God. No he isn’t. He broke the law when he was 16. Ah, but you see, a judge found he met the elements of his affirmative defense. Thus he is God again. Good point. Thank goodness his lawyer was competent enough that he was able to keep his God title.
