Ice Phisherman posted:I think Spicer actually did a fantastic job given the circumstances. Press Secretaries are supposed to deflect blame and absorb heat onto themselves. That's what he did and he did it while justifying the unjustifiable. A completely unenviable task. He also somehow managed to do it without ending up with the image of a contemptible rear end in a top hat. More of a diaper wearing duffus in over his head. Laughable not scornful. Like the court jester. Which is kinda hosed, with the way he's normalized public bold faced lying.

I think that was the problem with Shuckabee, she came across as a true believer and had a pretty big "gently caress you!" vibe when reporters asked questions that went against their narrative.

Even if the US pulls out, it's not a massive loss. The US is already on the way to meeting it's goals just by market forces: natural gas and green energy are cheaper than heavier polluters. Recycling is also becoming cheaper than new resource extraction over time. Electric/hybrid cars are ready to explode over the next ten years, etc. It'll be a lovely setback, but it's no death sentence, luckily. Especially as China is also starting to push for cleaner options as well. Even rich assholes need to breathe

RuanGacho posted:Apparently that's a joint suit by Vilerats mom and another parent just being idiots. I know it's been said that Vilerat's mom was an unhinged far right person even before his death, but it's still hosed up just how much the GOP used her. 707"] It seems like a major flaw in our system that signing a treaty requires the legislature to approve but breaking one doesn't. Or is this even a treaty? [/quote] The process to quit the Paris accords takes something like 4 years and can be stopped during that process IIRC. In other words: if Trump started trying to bail on the accords he'd have to win reelection in order to see it through. The US bailing on the accords won't stop China and others from pushing ahead with it and will only erode the US's position as the world leader that much faster. China would be beside itself with joy if Trump kills US participation in this. The real damage is him trying to electro-shock a dying coal industry via taxpayer bailouts when the entire coal sector needs to be allowed to die and the coal region needs to be heavily invested in for new uses. Setup a bunch of wind farms in West Virginia or something and then hire&train ex-miners to maintain their operation. Climbing a 200ft tall ladder is going to be hell to most people at first but ending up with legs of steel and lots of time outside is infinitely better than being in coal mines getting Black Lung.

You guys do realize that with Jared out, Steve Bannon is back in. Edit: also, lol, Trump totally quit the Paris accords after getting shunned by the mean kids at the Euro summit. Macron deserves some kind of medal for humiliating Trump.

The fuckup was a bipartisan affair. The republicans for instance gutted protections for embassies and then threw all of that poo poo on Hillary. Despite that during the Bush era the death toll was in the sixties for the same crises and we don't talk about them. VR on the other hand didn't even list her as family for his job at the state department. The "Got a crazy forwarded political email from your family? Post them here" thread was started in part due to her. Her grief has little bearing on her behavior previous which was bad. Her behavior afterward was more of the same. Her grief wasn't transformative. Her grief was a soapbox. So I don't give a gently caress.
