If someone like Mitch McConnell was President we would already be hosed and the system would have virtually no way to stop him.

Not only is he just plain old wrong on Obama's numbers, 50% is pretty fuckin awful for how recent his election was. Also that's without even mentioning that rasmussen is full of poo poo and most other places still have him significantly lower.

Indiana Jones is the gold standard of punching Nazis in the face because it's awesome, but even he knew not to punch Hitler himself when given the opportunity (in Last Crusade) because it would have worked against what he needed to accomplish.

You know, I was mostly joking when I said last week that Trump would probably brag about the Rasmusen poll again after seeing all the other ones in the mid 30s. I didn't really think he'd do it two days in a row.

AbsolutelySane posted:Everyone seems to assume it was something like ITT or ECPI, but it was really just another one of those 'get rich in real estate' seminar scams. I think every idiot that has a fix and flip show has attached their name to one at this point. Basically, they draw you in with a free seminar, then offer more and more expensive seminars and 'mentoring' from 'experts'. The problem is the 'experts' tend to be people picked up off the street and the 'mentoring' can cost upwards of $30-50,000 dollars. If you see 'I Buy Houses' signs scrawled in lovely handwriting littering the side of the road where you live, chances are that person went to one of these things. I don't know the details of Trump University, but I imagine it was something similar. No, you're pretty much spot on.

Actually 50% is pretty drat good considering the extent of wich the legacy corporate media is doing everything it can to promote his assassination, demonise and push insane conspiracy theories about him. In reality its probably much higher than 50%, those kind of polls are mostly rigged as weve seen during the election. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Yardbomb posted:Not only is he just plain old wrong on Obama's numbers, 50% is pretty fuckin awful for how recent his election was. Those Rassmussen poll numbers were from the day before, day of and day after the shooting at Alexandria. Gallup's polls were day of, two days after, and suggest a ~2 point upswing in Gallup from previous numbers, which is incidentally about how much higher Rassmussen is as well. This is basically the "Syria Cruise Missile Bump" and a lot of goons (not including myself) were asserting this is what would happen, so kudos to those goons. This also probably means these gains will evaporate in a few days. edit: Of course if you compare it to the average of recent polls, it actually looks like his numbers WENT DOWN with the Gallup polls somehow, while going up with the Rasmussen polls somehow. That's just more proof that Rassmussen = Republican. Chilichimp fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Jun 18, 2017 |

Article on Trump's lawyer that I missed: https://twitter.com/thedailybeast/status/876450301586419713 https://twitter.com/NoahShachtman/status/876449161104822272 https://twitter.com/NoahShachtman/status/876450123169103873 Also Twitter is a great service: https://twitter.com/sadydoyle/status/876130803591368709 Seriously though; the more you spend on Twitter the more absurd the absolute lack of competent moderation team it has. Even Facebook does a better job with this kind of poo poo (nevermind the fact that they have to rotate people out of the moderation team pretty quickly due to all the corpses and child porn giving mods PTSD) Party Plane Jones fucked around with this message at 15:57 on Jun 18, 2017 |

Good Soldier Svejk posted:Why the hell is GHWB so drat high up? And how did he gently caress up that good will? The high represents Gulf War I. It was basically a very clean and overwhelming military victory without years of open ended occupation. GHWB and General Schwarzkopf became America's Greatest Heroes as a result. Most including me assumed GHWB was a shoo in for reelection and were shocked when the "no new taxes" thing did him in.

Chilichimp posted:Trump University wasn't actually a university. Got it. No national/regional accreditation so it couldn't except federally subsidized student loans like the Stafford, etc? Like I realize that Trump University wasn't an actual institute of higher education but what are the barriers to being able to accept student loans at for-profit scams like theirs? Didn't we just have the debacle with Corinthian Colleges? I met a few people who went to school at Heald and could either have their credits transferred (if they were accepted) or have their student debt forgiven.

I saw that Errol Morris post up above and it had a link to an interview he did with Trump 15 years ago for the Oscars, concerning Citizen Kane. In it you can see that Trump at 55 has already been reduced to the simple speech that underlies the way he speaks now, but that he can still talk reasonably well. The big words he used in his forties are gone but the thought processes are there. If you can't watch much skip to the last 20 seconds or so when Morris asks him a question about marriage. It's amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeQOJZ-QzBk

So the ranking member of the House Intel Committee just said he thinks there is evidence of collusion? That seems like kind of a big accusation to make because I'm sure he has seen a ton of classified documents that we might never find out about or know the details of except in the abstract. Or would Schiff be making a bigger deal about this if there was more conclusive evidence pointing towards collusion?

The big words he used in his forties are gone but the thought processes are there. People mistake his normal fluent gibberish as decline due to age, but he has always talked this way when not carefully edited or reciting from cue cards/teleprompter. Even that piece is really heavily edited, have a look at some less-filtered old footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5kA2r2SE7g&t=480s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soNbfTYMb24&t=699s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8wJc7vHcTs&t=3s He never speaks in sentences, it's just a rambling flood of continuous bullshit Also he's always been a whiny little bitch baby even all the way back to the early 80s.
