How reliable is that document? Edit: reliable as in "is there a chance it is being misinterpreted? "

Potato Salad posted:How reliable is that document? It is the literal federal exchange commision's website. It's probably pretty legit. I just don't know if it's something that gets filed every year or is a standard thing in election years. Even if it's someone who's not planning on running.

Supposedly it's been filed in 2013 and 2014. I'm not sure it's an indication that he's planning on stealing the nomination yet.

He also gave a close to Shermanesque denial the other day, but who knows if that means anything anymore.

It was filed back in the start of February, and is not the document you need to actually jump in - it's something you would refile in an election year if you had maybe an outside thought about doing so. You're going to need to see him file a lot more stuff before he can actually get in, basically.

However Romney, the guy that no one really wanted to nominate but did so because it was the sensible thing they were told by serious people to do, getting the nomination after populist darling Trump wins the majority of votes but not enough to stop a brokered election and not actually campaigning or doing any actual work winning over people would be a magnificent thing to behold.

I don't think they are either but when you're desperate you make dumb mistakes and who the gently caress knows what's going on anymore.

Boon posted:How much of that openness to socialism is natural due the aging of the electorate who were convinced that communists are the great enemy? Millenials seem much less likely to directly link communism and socialism and are likely much more aware of the role social policy plays in day to day life. Probably a lot, but I think wage stagnation and college debt are helping too. Young people are asking "why do I have it so much harder than my parents did?" and finding out the government used to do a lot more for people.

McCloud posted:In that sense, what Mark Taibbi wrote is pretty accurate, part of Trumps appeal is that he's telling the truth about things Republicans have been coy about. The GOP are helping the rich exploit illegals and drive down wages, and "ordinary" americans suffer for it. Without cheap labor to exploit a lot of these companies/employers would have to raise their wages. If I was part of the lower class, working two jobs and barely getting by, I'd be pretty pissed too. Unfortunately they choose to aim this anger at the immigrants instead of the real culprits, the companies exploiting them, but I guess it's easier to rile up anger against dem dirty mexicans than aiming your vitrol at Disney and Walmart. Yeah, contrary to popular belief the GOP establishment LOVES illegal immigration because it makes businesses and rich people money. In fact if you pay close attention to the way that they act you'll notice that they rarely, if ever, actually do things that will solve the problem. It's all either ineffective nonsense or blame-shifting from corporations to immigrants (Virtual border fence! Self-deportation!).

Naw, I promise: build a wall and nobody will ever go over the wall. Or under it. Or past it via smuggling operations. Or through it with a few bags of commercial explosives in an area devoid of human life in a fifty mile radius.

At this point there's no one that could unite all the disparate factions, let alone someone like Ryan who's already loathed by the base for [insert dipshit reasons here]. It's hilarious to watch them squirm though. Nostalgia4Infinity posted:I'm just going to start keeping tally of when you well... Unzip and Shitpost Please do.

Unzip and Attack posted:So what is the exact number of posts that need to go by before your individual poo poo posts expire and can no longer be addressed? I'm going to have to make a spreadsheet. Maybe you can tell us more about how DWS only gets criticized because she's a woman. That's one of the best threadshits you never ended up even trying to defend, but that's just the first one I could think of.

Boon posted:Well. The immigrant labor at sub-standard wages is basically what drives down the cost of food. Without said labor, wages would definitely need to be higher or we would need to import more of our food, but the end impact is that we'd also see massive hikes in a lot of staple food products. This isn't necessarily bad, but given the current state of the US economy, it means that no matter what we do, the middle class is hosed. Didn't South Carolina or Georgia have a temporary crisis in food prices or shortages in their attempt to drive out illegal agricultural workers because of this a few years ago?

At least a fence could conceivably stop the laziest 10% of people who couldn't be assed to bring some wire cutters or something. GWB's "virtual fence" was pretty much just putting up a webcam and calling it a day.

That's an interesting point - I don't know whether or not these tactics would work on Cruz. They don't work on Trump generally, but Cruz is, somehow, a lot less likable than Trump so you may very well be right.

IIRC, Cruz is much more favorably looked upon in his own party (among voters) than Trump.
