Kimsemus posted:Calling him a "white man" shooter is race washing the issue. He was a white man, yes, but he was also a veteran with PTSD, whom had sought help before, couldn't get it, and was unstable. He didn't shoot people because he was white. And yet black veterans with PTSD commit mass shootings at a much lower rate than white veterans with PTSD. So yeah, he kinda did.

axeil posted:edit: actually poo poo, if the House impeaches is the Senate forced to have a hearing or can The Turtle just Merrick Garland it? honestly, it's happened so rarely that the rules are going to be what McConnell says they are, but if it's actually bad enough that impeachment is a good idea, that's going to hurt republicans as well - and reporters will keep asking republican senators to go on the record. again, i don't think this is a likely outcome. i have trouble thinking of the crimes that would actually get this result if people believed them and would have indisputable evidence that couldn't be ignored.

Adar posted:It's absolutely a semi-permanent realignment. Soccer moms hate Trump and chuds with a vengeance. They might have been persuaded to vote Republican if there were any untainted Republicans left, but there aren't and won't be anytime soon, so that's over. The economy is actually an interesting factor in this discussion. Not that I want it to happen, but odds are that all of Trumps stupid tariff/tax/etc decisions will start to hurt before the 2020 elections. If so that changes the board ENTIRELY.

axeil posted:imo, if the crimes are obvious/serious enough you do it simply so vulnerable R Senators in 2020 are forced to vote on it, similar to how the GOP used the Kavanaugh hearing to force red state Dems into tough votes. If they vote Yes they piss off the CHUDs, if they vote No they piss off/motivate Dems/Indies and the handful of Republicans that still have souls which could be enough to put the Senate in play. good question - my gut says the whole 'speedy trial' thing might come up if he's obviously dragging his heels, but it's never been litigated afaik

Seems like pretty solid speculation to me that the shooter was a chud who went and murdered a bunch of likely fairly liberal college students because the Democrats took the House the day before.

That said, an old person being injured in a fall is really, really dangerous so she might die. But she won't retire, she'll die or they're going to wheel her hospital bed into the Supreme Court for oral arguments.

Gillum isn't un-conceding, precisely, but he's also going to (if he can) demand his recount. https://twitter.com/ryanobles/status/1060572931867246594 remember for 2020. if there are any close races and you're like "augh why did he concede": concessions are legally meaningless!

Here's the original New York V Trump Foundation filing: https://ag.ny.gov/sites/default/files/court_stamped_petition.pdf It's fun. also quoting it is very annoying because of formatting, but my favorite bit is probably the "lol the board of directors never met, never did anything, never promulgated any rules, and was at best a rubber stamp for donald using the foundation as his personal piggy bank" relatedly, in addition to dissolving the trump foundation, new york wants to fine the poo poo out of trump and his kids and keep them from ever serving on a charity board / executive position again Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 17:53 on Nov 8, 2018 |
