Hieronymous Alloy posted:It's actually really bizarre if you watch older shows on Netflix how often in the middle of some random 80's sitcom there will be a joke about what a goddam buffoon Donald Trump is. I have no idea what it must have been like to see Reagan become President after remembering him as an actor who did movies with monkeys, but this has to be way worse. We have a lifetime of media that will constantly pop up to show us what a total joke the 45th President of the United States was always recognized as. Except for 1 year where the entire country pretended he wasn't a clown.

I just am having a bad day and was frustrated to see people seemingly play into the RWM narrative as I feel like we've seen a lot of this week. And I just wanted to repost that link because I feel like the inability to embed that video is stopping people from plainly seeing that this is another example of Trump watching Fox News and misunderstanding what was being said. I mean to be fair it is absolutely so bullshit some people do buy into. But yeah a little self care is not a bad idea.

Reagan at least had the ability to act. Presidential. You've got to put it into context. He could put on a show of gentility, clear speech / but down-home southern goodness, and this was a a bit before the entirety of America saw/regarded hollywood actors as limp-wristed artistes (sans Jane Fonda). The country needed an antidote to the hippie 60's/Steve Miller 70's. We WAR, we MAKE MONEY and we ARE SUCCESS. In comparison, the president is a spoiled, teen-aged social media troll. It's WAY WORSE!

you guys are right, its much more likely that russia, in concordance with cambridge analytics, hacked into the us voter rolls and changed registrations from dem to republican for just enough people that the election swung to donald james trump, and has successfully covered it up entirely with no leaks despite the fact that every other thing from this administration is leaked within the hour thats much more likely than hillary clinton does not appeal to midwesterners

KickerOfMice posted:Reagan at least had the ability to act. Presidential. You've got to put it into context. Yeah, I never actually put a lot of stock in the "Bedtime for Bonzo" criticism of Reagan because like, he had an entire political career. Maybe it was weird for California voters the first time he ran for governor but national voters weren't electing the actor, they were electing the governor. And even before governor he was heavily involved in politics. I just brought it up as kind of a weak comparison of something I grew up with where people would joke about it being this embarrassing thing from Reagan's past. But for Trump there's hundreds and hundreds of "Bedtime for Bonzo"s that aren't going to go anywhere. People will just keep binging some show on Netflix or watching random wrestling clips on Youtube or reading old books of comic strips and see random insults or clips of that total buffoon Donald Trump and have to process that he was ever considered valid as a candidate for the President of the United States.

UglyCrackBaby posted:Not sure if this came up already but does anyone know how serious this situation about Bernie and Jane Sanders being under investigation is: Pretty serious. There are two allegations: That Sen. Sanders used his influence to coerce the bank into making a loan and that Mrs. Sanders misrepresented the financial state of the college when applying for the loan. Both are felonies. But no one knows what evidence the do or do not have. Lawyering up is a smart move, even for the innocent.

In all seriousness though I'd be very surprised if it happened. If many votes had been suppressed via faulty registration, we would have found out quickly through people complaining on social media, so it would have had to be a very small-scale attack. But Putin wouldn't have done this for funsies, because the consequences of being found out would be devastating - before signing off on it, he'd have had to know it would swing the election result. And no-one in America, including Obama with the full power of the US intelligence services behind him, thought things were gong to be that close, so it seems very unlikely Putin had that knowledge. Also, Hillary really did run a gently caress-awful campaign, so it's not like the alternative explanation is implausible.

It probably didn't happen, but unless the Russians kept records of their hacks that we get access to we'll never know for sure. Ever. The Voter Registration Systems and Voting Machines just aren't in a state where we would tell they were tampered with.

Nothus posted:Isn't the big remediation issue that the lead comes from the pipes, and because the more acidic water has dissolved away a century's worth of mineral deposits that sealed the pipes, there's nothing to be done but replace the pipes, which is hideously expensive and a non-starter for a economically bereft town like Flint? Mostly yes but also flakes of lead/lead-coated metal have broken loose from the service pipes and were carried into people's faucets and water heaters and stuff. That stuff is mostly downstream of the filters. And also the pipes themselves also sustained like 30 years worth of corrosion damage at the old rate (out of a 50 year lifespan) so Flint also basically needs to start figuring on ripping out half the pipes in the city at the normal rate of replacement (lol if you think "normal replacement" was going on, they just need to replace everything). edit: you know what while you're ripping it out anyway how about some fiber and easy-access conduits for future understreet work and poo poo? would be a good way to attract tech... (j/k, the thing about Flint being Michigan's Detroit is absolutely correct, nobody's going to do anything) Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 04:40 on Jun 24, 2017 |

Reagan had the embarrassing "Bedtime for Bonzo," Trump has been arguably the candidates that has carried his own childishness into office. A careful, thoughtful child is still those things. That is not shameful, shame is lost in this equation anyway. Here is a person who I don't believe the cultural historians of America will ever leave alone, for good reason. This. Is. Unreal. I just want the younger posters/lurkers to know that. This is deeply hosed up. A man advertised himself as a greedy juvenile businessman, and then had his metamorphosis there into a hideous explosion of childish greed, even when everyone saw the chrysalis.
