He deleted his nephew from reality. Fuckin Thanos snapped his ass.

I've heard that kind of thing before, and don't remember it amounting to much. I recommend that y'all temper your expectations. As for me, I'll believe it when I hear about the effects of it being done, not about people saying it's totally happening.

Even in that case, it should be pretty straightforward to get that amount with some property or other as collateral. Hard to believe he wouldn't be able to do that on short notice even with a bad reputation if the property valuation is from a neutral source.

It took only a decade for the founders to throw the Articles in the trash. They could have done the same to the Constitution if it was comparably bad, but it wasn't. But I fear this is wandering into the weeds: let me try again. The AoC's Congress was made up of states, basically. They sent...

And then everyone realized the Articles of Confederation sucked.

I would love to hear that argument since as far as I know the 16th amendment is about permitting an income tax, not requiring it or requiring the IRS to be involved in its collection.

In general I don't like speculating more than 4 years out about nominees but I would like to point out that in 2028 DeSantis will have been out of office for a couple years (term-limited to let someone else have a turn before potentially running again in 2030). That doesn't stop people from...

Sure, I'm not arguing against the argument that Trump could declassify it all by waving his hand over it, or just by taking it home, or that if he did anything that would be illegal if it wasn't declassified we are to assume that he declassified it prior to committing that act. However, there...

This would have been so easy to clear up if only Trump had taken that memo home along with all the stuff he declassified with said memo. I wonder why he didn't?

I disagree with chumlee's response but I have my own problem with that evidence you posted, which is that it doesn't actually dispute the charge that people dislike Trump. Rather, it seems to be about Joe Biden having even lower likability than Trump in polling, which is a non sequitur. Trump...

He improved his score by 10; I believe the best improvement by an incumbent Dem was 7 (CT). Gubernatorial newcomers in MA and MD had even larger majorities of the vote but the R incumbents were retiring or term-limited so it's not exactly apples-to-apples. To address the larger point I think...

I agree with the fact you cite but it seems a little too narrowly focused for the conclusion. But more importantly, I'm confused that The Immortal Watch Dog "liked" it. Wait, what is the "it" that is objectively wrong?

It's true that words can change political meaning over the course of a century, and some organizations just have misleading names in the first place. But do you agree with him that Theodore Roosevelt was more right than left for his time?

Teddy "Progressive Party" Roosevelt was on the right?

It may not have mattered in this case, but it's always best to have one's facts straight. The easiest thing to nitpick from your list was that 1981 was significantly less than 45 years ago.

Fixed that for you

C'mon man, regardless of whether you think it's legitimate or illegitimate you can hardly deny that "Trump things" are happening constantly right? I mean it feels like you could hardly pick a date for a Biden scandal to happen that would be more than like a fortnight away from some Trump...

With the caveat that too many police forces when given discretion over their own training opt for "warrior mindset" shit. Control is needed.

But still doesn't get to dictate to the states that they have to put someone on the ballot or remove someone, right?

Perhaps a minor detail, but I thought the purported blocking of ballot access was to be done entirely on the state level?
