It's American as gently caress. You just do it on your way up when nobody tests and you get cut if you don't, and scale it back when you're getting paid and tested

He was photographed meeting with Romney, but I couldn't tell you whether he supported him or was just doing the normal celebrity photo thing? gently caress, I couldn't be certain which of them asked to be photographed with the other.

It's fascinating when Arnold talks about the golden days of bodybuilding when theyd just eat handfuls of whatever the gently caress with no regard for the consequences.

cant cook creole bream posted:Reminder that the only flaw in Clinton's debate seemed to be "over-preparedness". Hillary is not very good at conveying complex thoughts into words in the moment, and so relies a lot on rehearsed phrasing. It is obvious to everyone, which is what I think everyone meant by her being "over-prepared". And she is not good at reading the room to know that something like trumped-up trickle-down wouldn't stick, especially with her bad delivery. And even if she was cognizant that something probably won't work, I don't think she'd stray from the script anyway, because a poor delivery of a bad new catchphrase is better than stammering and pausing from trying to figure out what to say (Obama was the opposite - very good at thinking up something novel to say that perfectly fit the situation, but often had several seconds of awkward umm's and uh's before he could blurt it out). I don't mean that she should avoid rehearsed lines entirely. It was clear she had that Alicia Machado thing in her bag, waiting to be pulled out, and it went off perfectly. But the ability to adapt what she's saying on the fly is a definite weakness of hers.

Also, that first part was something from a bad improv comic. Also, talking about making Apple make iPhone in the U.S. instead of China and Vietnam when he's president when he can't bother to get his own brand to have products made in the U.S.A.

If Trump tries a civil war, it'd last 4-5 hours. Not a single state governmemt supports him and no matter how armed his supporters are they can't beat the American army.

1. Assuming for a moment that the Democrats take the Senate, what are the chances that some Democratic Senators will break ranks? Like, will there be a Lieberman expy that's going to gently caress over Clinton on a Supreme Court nomination? 2. If the Senate is a 50/50 split (with ties broken by Kaine), who becomes "Majority Leader"?

What you would have would be a rash of mostly crazy people with guns for a few months or in small cases have small bands of previously organized people committing acts of terrorism. I'd give it three months before poo poo finally calms down.

I guess what happens is that those undecided voters start to realize that Trump doesn't have a good chance and is not a good candidate anyway. So they want the Republicans to keep the senate to limit Clinton from grabbing to much power.

I'm pretty sure that committee assignments are handled by vote early in the first day or two of the Senate session, so 50+Kaine should be sufficient to give Democrats the committee chairmanships and the majority leader. Young Freud posted:3) If the Dems take the Senate, either by majority or tie-broken by Kaine, does Mitch McConnell resign for getting the Senate Republicans in this mess? I think the best part of this whole election season will be seeing Trump's followers turn on him after he loses. I don't think he knows it's coming. He thinks they will keep following him to some new media network or whatever, when the reality is that he will be shunned and ridiculed mercilessly. And he will not take it well. The downfall will be beautiful.

Inferior Third Season posted:Why would McConnell take any responsibility when everyone will be blaming Trump? Good point. I was thinking that McConnell's obstructionism in regards to Supreme Court et al. would have cost him his job, much like Newt Gingrich resigning following the 1998 Congressional midterms.

The downfall will be beautiful. Yeah, that's why I don't he'll live out 2017. Combined with his age, health and an uncertain future now that his precious brand is ruined and repercussions from all this exposure into his business, his ego rapidly deflating from all this may actually be of lethal proportions. He basically bet it all and lost and those who invested in this mess are going to be looking for answers that he can't give. Considering that people have been suggesting that he might be in the opening stages of Alzheimer's like his father while he's campaigning, his fall post-election is going to happen super-quick. I'm at least thinking that we will stop hearing from his Twitter feed by the end of the year when he loses. I don't think he'll be around even as a novelty Twitter like the Iron Sheik.

Pence won the debate and lost the election (even harder than they already were). It would be a decent springboard for his 2020 election bid if he wasn't going to be steeped in the stench of Trump.
