  1. Been saying this for a while. Zero doubt in my mind she'll be dotard's vp pick.
  2. Jesus Christ she needs to be cunt punted so hard. So very hard.
  3. Is the implication here that he's a high caliber poster?
  4. Is this you doing a trump impression? If so I will have to revoke my neg.
  5. I guess I've spent my whole life in public accounting since my old man's a CPA.
  6. He's talking about Rudolf getting into politics for the first time during his life, the failed 1989 bid for NYC mayor.
  7. I have no idea what's going on in this thread.
  8. Let me guess, guys with hugely lifted trucks and obnoxiously loud exhaust don't have small dicks either...
  9. This does nothing to change manufacturing of firearms. This does nothing to change who can legally purchase a firearm. This does nothing to stop people who can't carry a firearm to carry one. All it does is lower the financial cost to aquire a permit from $100 to $0 and saves those same people 6 hours out of their day. A complete non-issue. Your fight is against something else but IMO it's wasted on this. So your opinion is that people no longer having to go through the 6 hour course and pay $100 isn't going to lead to more people carrying?
  10. Always good to blame your kid making bad choices for your decision to basically orphan him. Especially in the context of disclosing your own shitty choice when you were young. This guy is the platonic ideal of a Republican.
  11. *** And stop watching Fox News. But no chance of that. People are just going to get more and more radicalized. Hard to overestimate how much damage that propaganda channel is doing to our country. The future costs are going to be immense.
  12. The best parts are his fucking laughable $20k per day rate for embarrassing himself, and that everyone other than Rudy knew he would never get a dime.
  13. Exactly. And if there are allegations of local corruption and conspiracy, the states can police that. Except for isolated violations of federal laws (e.g., vandalizing a federal building), it's only a federal matter if there were violations of constitutional rights, and if there were any they definitely weren't significant enough to warrant a congressional investigation. Not to mention that we already know pretty much all the facts about the riots. What the hell would congress investigate?
  14. That's a pleasant surprise. The other day I heard about a poll where something like 50% of Rs credited the GOP for Biden's Rescue Plan even though not a single fucking one of them voted for it. I'm sure most of those are pure Trumpers and unreachable, but the staggering ignorance of a large chunk of the electorate is a humongous roadblock to our democracy functioning rationally.
  15. That's the plan after this fails. Dems preferred a bipartisan commission, I guess based on the belief that it would have more credibility, particularly with the Rs. But it's foolish to think the average R would pay even the slightest attention to the investigation.
  16. I just performed the weirdest Google searches in an attempt to understand this reference. Then I realized it's about the poster.
  17. One touchy-feely recruiting ad is definitely going to diminish our fighting ability. It's science. And even if it were true that a military's ads mattered, it's stupid to act like our military doesn't put out copious ads just like the Russian one.
  18. So switch parties then.
  19. This is like saying there's no fundamental difference between habitually watching hot lesbian pr0n and habitually watching hippos fuck. Sure there's a common denominator, but I'd say there are some pretty big fundamental differences.
  20. I just recently learned that some clown known as pewdiepie became a multi-millionaire via people watching him play videogames on YouTube. This discovery short circuited my brain. I didn't even know watching someone else play videogames was a thing. I still don't understand how or why it is.
  21. It may be the inevitable fate of democracies rife with ignorance, disinformation, and anti-intellectalism.
  22. It's a race relations viewpoint that is supposedly being taught in public schools and diversity training. Or the right wingers are trying to preempt it from being taught in public schools. I'm not sure which it is, probably both. I know UT and other universities have courses based on it. From my limited understanding of CRT, it argues that policy and actions that don't have racist intentions but produce disproportionately negative effects for POC. An example would be single family zoning; it's a racist policy because it tends to limit the number of minorities. So it basically expands the definition of "racism" beyond what some (including me) conceive it to mean. But that concern is really just a semantic one. Another common objection is that CRT looking at almost everything through a racial lens is counterproductive in various ways, including nurturing resentment and guilt of whites, and all for things they didn't even intentionally cause. Note that I haven't studied CRT and the above is based on my limited reading of commentary re: CRT, so anyone interested should do their own research. Hopefully this post is at least a little accurate and useful to those who aren't or weren't sufficiently interested.
