A lovely Reporter posted:What does this even mean? Please use complete thoughts and sentences. I impolitely suggested we level small towns and turn them into national parks and forests and assist the poor whites who live there with relocating to a city and retraining them for the new economy. Caught a probation for it, and now apparently I'm being called out because I think Trump is a racist?

HorseRenoir posted:https://twitter.com/HayesBrown/status/798744126292455424 The scariest thing Trump ever said was that he would've ordered American sailors to fire on Iranian sailors who were taunting them and was confident it wouldn't've started a war. Trump could start WW3 without even realizing he was doing it

It's going to be a waste of a disaster if we don't get Jared "KUSHMASTER401K" Kushner as director of the office of drug policy or whatever cabinet slot deals with weed.

FlamingLiberal posted:The reason the wars overseas have not become political issues (other than Iraq) is because the average person is disconnected from it. With Vietnam everyone knew someone who had to go and we quickly lost interest in fighting that kind of war. Any war we wage now would be one of choice, and very few are going to sign up for that People lost interest because draft deferments for college kids ended. The war was very popular among respectable classes and liberals like H. Humphrey because poor people's kids died in Vietnam which rich kids got off on those deferments. Once the deferments ended the protest movement really ramped up, which taught military leadership that a draft is a politically lovely idea and it's easier to sacrifice a volunteer army instead.

Yeah, it's completely insane. Like Jared Kushner is a real estate investor with no real political knowledge or a working knowledge of international politics that's crazy he would be given top secret clearance...

At this point uspol saying there won't be a draft is making me entertain the possibility that they'll reinstate it. Also, no he won't be impeached. That's about as much wishful thinking as electors going faithless.

Probably lots of heritage/AEI/supply-side types. When Trump rolls out his tax cuts Laffer will make his CNBC/FN appearances to remind everyone he's still in it.

I think I am going to start submitting my resume for job openings and try and nab being a Department Head. There's like 1600 of them and 6000 other positions why the gently caress not. I kind of do want to work for United States Institute of Peace Like they're posting Head of Department positions. What the gently caress.

Quorum posted:Don't exaggerate. Bush would never in a million years have issued the Clean Power Plan, his Justice Department wouldn't bother trying to investigate or get consent decrees on police departments that extrajudicially murder black people, and his Labor Department wouldn't ever issue the kind of rulings on overtime and safety requirements that Obama's has. And neither will Trump's. There's "Obama wasn't as groundbreaking as I would like" and then there's "Obama is just Bush but black and with the serial numbers filed off!!!!" and one of them is a stupid loving thing to say. Bush's aversion to climate change, racism, and crushing bootheel on the American worker count as heinous things he discontinued. None of those things were remotely acceptable, but anything leftover from the Bush years that didn't offend the senses got left alone pretty much.
