I'm really disappointed in Kathy Griffin and that she doesn't want life to imitate art.

TyroneGoldstein posted:This is correct. This has always been correct and I'm disappointed this even needs to be stated here when people on this very board who actually follow politics have said...repeatedly...that with the Democratic Party and it's constituents the single most important thing going into a Presidential election is to build the coalition and get everyone on board with the love fest. We cannot rely on garbage agitprop. It does not work in this era with left wing ideas. it turns out you can do... both? is that possible, doing two things at once? no, surely, this cannot be... i cannot look at the kathy griffin images while also encouraging people to vote... i must choose, a cruel choice...

Trabisnikof posted:Meanwhile, we're talking about how Trump is ruining America and how they use ISIS to threaten us. That's a win for Democrats. I agree except that "we" in this instance is the SA forums, not America at large. 99% of people who see this photo aren't going to give 2 shits about the context or about what Griffin is trying to say. It's great fodder for discussion in this thread, but this thread is not the US.

Kathy Griffin trolling is good because you know Trump will see it, become irrate, have a blood pressure spike, and be one step closer to a heart attack or brain aneurism.

I think whatever drives him to say those things despite knowing he wants to run for President will sink him because he'll keep saying them.

Clinton won her primary decidedly uncomfortably in a field that was extremely thin and consisted of only one real challenger--a guy in his mid-70s who had never run in a national race. Not to mention a party apparatus that was extremely favorably disposed towards her cruising to the nomination. In a GOP-like clown car field, she'd have drowned like Jeb did.

Possibly, but I can also see her potentially winning in the same manner Trump did - squeakers in the early days off of visibility until you've got inevitability. Romney was in a very similar situation in 2012 - he was the most likely winner at the start, and early on voters hopped from one not-Romney to the next until he was inevitable.

Wrong sort of trolling. If you want to make him angry, belittle him, don't do strange performance art which he is not going to understand except as an impotent death threat. Something like pushing an effigy of him around in a baby carriage, or dressing it up as a stereotype Russian.

Interesting convo with two Republican friends today. Main takeaways: 1. They think Trump is an embarrassment, one actually quoted Obama's note pretty accurately from memory to contrast it to dumbfuck's "thanks jews, great to be here!" 2. They are fine with us pissing off or leaving NATO, especially the one who served in Iraq 3. Surprisingly hung up on colleges not giving the Milos and Richard Spencers of the world a platform 4. Legitimately believe both sides are equally obstructionist, although the non-veteran did acknowledge the R's are more evil 5. Somewhat receptive or at least did not openly deride my "taxation at 90%, quit defunding poo poo so you can say it doesn't work, I love Eisenhower" rant.

Yeah he doesn't believe in the Russian stuff: quote:GLENN GREENWALD: Well, so, first of all, there’s a media issue here, which is that if you look at The Wall Street Journal report, it’s pretty much exactly the same as every other significant report about Russia over the last six months, many of which have proven to be completely false. It’s based on anonymous officials making extremely vague claims. Even The Wall Street Journal says, "We don’t know who’s doing this, withholding information. We don’t know how much information is being withheld." This was before Trump passed secret information to the Kremlin and it came out Kushner tried to create a secret back channel with the Kremlin.

Surprisingly hung up on colleges not giving the Milos and Richard Spencers of the world a platform they're intellectually insecure and upset that their ideology isn't respected or regarded as worthy of study. people love to dress up their reflexive hatred as some kind of movement by using jargon and the other trappings of intellectualism - people who aren't that bright do this all the time to convince each other how smart they are. sort of like spending too much on entry level luxury cars or tract mcmansions to convince people how wealthy you are
