  1. BTW I'd take that poll with a grain of salt. It's a shocking swing and is only one poll.

    That said, I expect this to at least be a lifeline to Democrats who are in tight races. Republicans are spiking the ball here and it isn't a good look.

    It's actually pretty damn important. If he truly believed the bullshit he was spouting, that would have an affect on the types of crimes he could be found guilty of.

    That's what I figured.

    IMHO this is the kind of thing that will sink Trump ultimately. It will be something financial or mail fraud.

    can it? I seem to remember plenty of people being convicted of crimes they "didn't know were wrong." no knowing is not an excuse. guess I am naïve, but does not the same principle apply here?

    It just means that he wasn't lying about the fraud - he was convinced (by Rudy, Sidney, et al) that the election was stolen from him. It doesn't cover him from other crimes if applicable. 

    One of the lawyers on here will have to provide details.

    It appears that HIMARS is going to make a big difference. I understand why it took time to get them going though. You can’t give someone an advanced rocket system without 100% of the proper training. 
     

    I hope they have good missile and counter battery defense systems to protect them because they’re extremely valuable.

    HIMARS are also a logistical nightmare. One can launch an entire cargo plane full of missiles in a day. That’s why we only sent four at first - to see if Ukraine can handle the logistics to support them.

    here’s a Reddit post talking about this:

  4. My only advice is not to get caught up in the political hyperbole. 

    And for those of you who think the rest of the developed world will welcome you with open arms - you're in for a rude awakening. You'd better be fucking rich or have a job lined up. They don't want freeloaders.
