empty whippet box posted:OTOH, what if Donald Trump suddenly realized that he could be the most popular and loved president in history by instituting policies that helped everyone at the expense of the rich, and could target other rich people than himself to do it? But is he screwing over people he hates? Unless it fuels a war with someone he's mad at, he won't care. Maybe we need to instigate something between him and Warren Buffet.

As much as the idea of Ambassador Rodman travelling the world and taming autocratic regimes tickles me, I think there's also a "dude is basically a vegetable now and oh poo poo we don't want him dying on us and also he's just costing us a fortune lying there hooked up to machines so may as well release him but hey could you send Rodman cus Chairman Kim wants to hang out" aspect.

On the other hand, if he were getting "prisoner-grade" treatment in North Korea they would've just shot him (possibly with an anti-aircraft gun if they were feeling particularly randy that day).

Well, I mean he is/was still worth more alive to them than dead, else he would be, but I doubt whatever care he was getting would have been considered close to adequate by western standards.

I was just saying this is the primary thread. I couldn't find historical data but this has got to be a sign of something. Maybe all the wishy-washy folks who got burned by Trump have learned a valuable lesson about how quickly democracy will gently caress you if you go at it passively.

I don't think that means anything. VA has open primaries. People cross party lines all the time. The story going into this was that Gillespie was going to win the Republican nomination in a landslide, so plenty of Republicans crossed over and voted in the Democratic primary instead. I know my mom, a Trump voter, did.

Seven Hundred Bee posted:Posted this in the other thread, but the VA primary has a lot of local issues and it shouldn't be seen as a shift away from the far left. Northam is also progressive af and more left than Surprisingly Good gov. Macauliffe. Perriello losing his primary is not a "moderate beats progressive" it's more of a "progressive with establishment backing beats progressive without establishment backing." He'll do good as Virginia's governor. The GOP side is still too close to call with their establishment pick in a dead heat with a racist Trumpeteer. Edit: oops I missed an entire page of Virginia chat

No. When you go in, they ask you if you want the Republican or the Democratic ballot, and they give you that one. At least in VA.

Yeah, I misread about blanket primaries (which don't really exist anymore) being unable to issue partisan ballots and thought that applied to open primaries in general. I am a dumb.
