Owlofcreamcheese posted:Are you disagreeing with me that he hasn't already won 8 years, won the supreme court for the rest of our lives and won every investigation against him regardless of the outcome because he is untouchable? Or are you just mad when I write it like a fan instead of like this thread normally does? The issue, you see, is that he didn't 'win' anything. He was handed it by a broken system and a little help from Putin. If he had 'won', I don't think the vitriol would be as bad, though the depression would certainly be worse.

Is it just dems or is it also reps in Colorado that are burning their voter rolls? Any kind of American can get overly paranoid of their privacy and this could be a preemptive "I never voted for Trump" duck by any moderates in the area as much as giving the Rs what they want.

So the Senate GOP is going to make a last push for their healthcare bill once Trump returns from Europe. If it fails then they can't push their tax bill through since it relies on the removal of the ACA's taxes. What would they move onto next?

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Dozens of posts have said he gets eight years the Supreme Court, voting districts and can not be impeached. I mean if he gets even a fraction of those he gets the rest, right? We know he'll probably get the SC. If he gets 8 years he definitely will. If he gets the SC he gets voter disenfranchisement, and if he gets disenfranchisement he keeps a Republican congress and never gets impeached. No one is jerking off to this idea in this thread. You being uncomfortable with these possibilities is no excuse not to bring them up. We have to acknowledge our built in disadvantage is only going to get worse. That doesn't mean we're doomed, it just means we probably are.

Mnoba posted:there is no collusion between trump and russia because there is no evidence, again unless you know otherwise? What is with this weird thought process that relies on the assumption that an investigation process that does not immediately publicly disclose any and all material prior to the conclusion of the investigation is therefore proof of absence despite this never being how things work, especially when dealing with ongoing matters of national security where public exposure could compromise ability to maintain and leverage assets that operate in a capacity to monitor state activity. Like, I completely understand a skeptical position of distrusting the veracity of statements issued by the agencies concerning the existence and ongoing collective of evidence related to Russian state sponsorship of proven events and the potential weakness of tying it to Trump collusion since investigations in the past conducted in secrecy have been accompanied by public deception to pursue an agenda and it really helps feed need to maintain ideological purity in order to bolster the walls of denial necessary to protect themselves from having to experience the pain of critical thought and adapting belief to fit evidence and fact. But you can still remain delightfully unchallenged without having to embrace a "proof of absence" position predicated on investigation standard procedure that had literally never been true coupled with a conspiracy so vast that it is even propagated people who would be better served if there were no evidence claiming secure presentation of information that has compelled them to support the full scope of investigation. In fact, it requires ascribing specific motivations to a large consortium of players that run counter to historical record. Just about the only group of people that need to maintain a completely fabricated conspiracy are grieving centrist democrats needing to externalize all machinations that foiled what was embraced as an inevitability in order to justify a lack of painful introspection and they are only a minor player in the overall collective that has publicly adopted a position of concession toward the legitimacy of the investigation. Tldr your core world views are so fragile that you must adopt an illogical adherence to a grand conspiracy rather than a rational skeptical view that preserves your dignity instead of at best casting you as a blathering idiot who doesn't understand the difference between a stopped clock and actual analysis.

Any day now the NRO is going to publish satellite photos showing Russian spies sneaking into a Google datacenter and then leaving with a briefcase of Podesta emails. ... Seriously though, the US intelligence apparatus is huge with specialized parts. The relevant parts to any hacks have stated that they have a high amount of confidence that Russia was behind it. Why do other intelligence agencies need to sign off? What could Coast Guard Intelligence POSSIBLY say about this? ONI? It's not their field.
