Hollismason posted:Uh yea there was a recall and everything Pretty much. Even an offline system can be exploited given enough time to experiment, and we're talking about a concept that would be heavily reliant on online GPS, weather reports, traffic updates, etc. just to get by. People make computers out of blocks in a lego game or a gameboy running a vulnerable game just for fun, a lot of tech fetishists really underestimate the skill for abstract thought and innovation some people have.

So the whole "no cameras allowed in press briefings" thing is because they realize how awful all of their press briefings have been and don't want to be scrutinized anymore?

Donnie is outside the normal darkmoney networks and I kind doubt the GOPe would approve attacking their own like this. BTW how's Prebus/the RNC? Havent heard from them in a while.

Printing that they avoided a whole bunch of important questions looks way better than showing a video of them squirming for 15 minutes, trying to look like they know what they're talking about.

I love that CNN trolled the White House by sending a courtroom sketch artist to draw the WH briefings since they weren't allowed to film. Makes it seem like a closed courtroom.

DreamShipWrecked posted:My point is that having the GOP release such a blatantly horrible bill with awful reception is a great time to go "these chucklefucks don't know what they are doing". When the bill (I would hope) inevitably fails it opens them up to pushing hard against it. I remember when the DEMS unveiled the ACA, instead of just attacking it Republicans started talking about the AHCA in specific detail from day one, and that's why they were able to capitalize on it. Skex posted:The thing is that unless the elected Democrats actually work to enact the policies in the platform it really is just a joke. Oh and it's not like the Centrist "let" the left write the platform. that's the result of people getting active in the organization and doing exactly what the Centrists keep telling them to do which is engage and work within the system. The concessions made by centrists to leftists when they lose is literally without precedent. No losing primary candidate in either party has ever been allowed to nominate a single member of the platform writers in American history. Also, how dare Dems not pass a $15 minimum wage with no power. Seriously, are you actually trying to say that the things in the platform not coming true after they lost is Dems fault and not, you know, what happens when they don't control any part of government? Huzanko posted:https://theintercept.com/2017/06/23/democratic-lobbyists-donald-trump-mottur-podesta-comcast-prudential/ So your only response to leftists refusing to ever acknowledge the concessions made to them is to not even address those concessions and instead use anecdotes about ...christ, I don't even know what that horseshit wall of text was. What the gently caress does literally any of what you said have to do with Democratic Leadership and their treatment of the left?

Its them continuing to throw fits over not being able to control the narrative. They'd like nothing more than to shut down the press briefings, go silent most of the week, and use Fox News as their sole outlet. But every time they try and pull back access they get attacked from all sides and the narrative just gets worse. This current round will probably break in a week or two when the media gets tired of it and frustrated and start making lots of noise. They were distracted this week by Georgia and health care, and that will probably continue into next week. But eventually it will repeat the process where everyone gets annoyed at the lack of answers, criticism ramps way up, Trump tweets a bunch of explosive poo poo, etc.

Republicans weren't in power and daily screeching into the Hatemaw that they would repeal Obamacare, Impeach the Kenyan Marxist Muslim Usurper, and make it illegal to care for others, and they were rewarded very handsomely indeed. So yes, Dems should be making up wild poo poo like "living wage" and "healthcare should exist" and campaigning on it. Of course, maybe Democrats are worried they might have to actually do those things later, as they are seeing with Republicans, voters actually want the government to do things!

Notice that he just says he didn't make, and doesn't have, any recordings. He doesn't say he doesn't know of any recordings, which is something I would expect him to state if he didn't know of any recordings.

You have a massive victim complex and view all Dem actions as if they hate you and want to hurt you. Nothing will shift that perception except you.

It's important to show people you are at leasty trying to work in their interests. Republicans do that even if their interests are dumb. Trump still talks about The Wall, and that fires up the dwindling section of his base that mostly cares about the wall. Fighting for $15 is actually a good idea, and does get people energized. It's important to look like you're working for it even if you realistically can't right now.

I try and point out when folks get into turnout-bashing mode that yelling at folks both wont work and ignores the voter suppression problems that are at the core(like people working during voting days, etc) but it feels good to poo poo on someone I guess.

When Donald Trump says something is "Just Out" that's been news for awhile and something he's denied I always assume that like Tucker Carlson just did a piece on it so now Trump believes it.
