Northam's clearly bought and paid for by the same rich pieces of poo poo who buy and sell republicans. I don't really see any other way to explain it, honestly. Virginia got suckered into thinking they were voting for a democrat; instead they voted for another stooge of the rich. Ohhhh well.


Well he already hosed up his image with me, I won't believe it until I see it now. As far as I'm concerned he's just another centrist doing what the rich people say while pretending to be a democrat.

The bitcoin truther says it, so mote it be.

Honestly, this was one of his central campaign platforms. Watch his actions, not his rhetoric. It’s like none of you have learned anything from this year except how to blow up your own blood pressure.

I'm really hoping the Democratic Party figures out again, like they knew from the 30s to the 70s, that people like getting entitlements that improve their lives. And with these entitlements, people will fight to keep them and will *gasp* show up to vote for the party that pushed the entitlements through.

This is sort of adjacent to your point but I have a personal pet peeve of people on the left thinking the word "entitlements" is bad to use. I see this on Facebook all the time. They're entitlements; they were specifically called entitlements for a reason. Because you paid OASDI throughout your working career and now you are entitled to those benefits in your old age. They can't be taken away.

Both can be true. Initial backlash, fail to destroy in court, Dems run away from it in a failed attempt to save themselves. Then people realize changing it again would be worse, and 2017 happens.

I would push back on 2016 being a referendum on Obamacare, too, if only because 2016 was a referendum on gently caress You All. 2017 and onward appears to be a response of No, gently caress You Right Back.

A friend of mine has mined over 30 grand(not sure exactly how much he mined, but last time I was at his house he had 2.5 bitcoins in his coinbase wallet) in bitcoin in the last six months and also just made another shitload prospecting a cryptocurrency called davor coin; dropped $5000 in bitcoin into the ICO when it opened at 85 cents a coin and turned all of it back into bitcoin once it hit $10 a coin, netting over 40 thousand dollars in profit. While there's plenty of such stories, it's pretty naive to think that such a situation could possibly continue; it's a gold rush / wild west situation where the market's going to get oversaturated and is already full of scams and ripoffs. He could just as easily have lost his $5k to a company taking the money and running. He estimates he'll be able to do this for another couple months before the rush is over, but he's already made more than most people in america make in a year by shuffling fake money around on the internet. Cryptos be craaaaaazy, man.

It was a particularly funny derail. I honestly don't know enough about bitcoin to know your experience, but I know enough of the people who dogpiled you read way more about it.

I'm confused about which part of that makes me a 'truther'.

Or i guess more specifically, it sounds like these emails were used to craft the scripts used by Muellers team to question people. Those people being questioned didnt know the message were in Muellers hands.

This is so wonderfully brutal if that's how it all played out.

It's not hard to understand who Mueller's team has no leaks. Not only is it full of top-tier lawyers, but even the staffers working for those lawyers know full well that this investigation is going to make or break their careers.


The average person isn't suffering because Trump's a rapist, they're suffering because the GOP is literally robbing them to give more money to the rich.
