You can't blame the citzenry for gerrymandering Madison was brought to a standstil for days after Act 10. We forced a recall of a sitting governor, only I think the second or third in American history. It's not our fault the Wisconsin Democrats ran the exact same guy that lost the general election to Walker. And yeah, we're gerrymandered all to gently caress. The Dems won the popular vote in this state but only got 33 of 99 state legislature seats.

The Trump cultquote:Unhappily for Mr Lance, who is known for his decency, bipartisanship and opposition to last year’s tax cuts, they may not. Having won his district, a belt of New York commuter-country packed with affluent college graduates, by 37,000 votes two years ago, he is now trailing his opponent, Tom Malinowski, a former human-rights specialist for Barack Obama. That represents a broader recoiling of well-educated voters against the Trump party. Yet while coverage of the mid-terms has focused on such ways in which Mr Trump has rearranged the electorate, the degree to which he has not done so is far more remarkable. https://www.economist.com/united-states/2018/11/01/the-trump-cult

My personal theory is that Kellyanne agrees with everything her husband says, but has no soul & is happy to lie for Trump as long as she gets to keep her job/salary/status. Pure mercenary.

No you're not. Go away, Joe. You'll win against Trump by running some standard campaign if you win the primary, but so would any competent human being who can connect with people. We don't need your blue dog rear end. Stop creeping on women.

pookel posted:AFAIK, Leonard Leo is not a supporter of massive personal financial fraud, at least. OTOH, he's willing to overlook it as long as his judges get nominated. At this point, Kellyanne Conway could leave the Trump administration and walk into a wingnut welfare/lobbying job that pays her easily 10 times what she's making at the White House. If she's purely a mercenary, she's terrible at it.

Taerkar posted:I was listening to NPR on the way in this morning (Because there was nothing better) and they had some political professor on who was talking about it. He went on to mention that Democrats have done the same thing in the past, though not as blatantly, but for some strange reason didn't actually name any specific events. I heard that too. It needs to be pointed out that, at least on a small scale, Republicans and Democrats do many of the same awful things. But it's the difference in degree that matters. Yes, Democrats gerrymander, but no where near the scale of Republicans. Yes, Democrats probably tried to usurp power somewhere, but no where near the scale of Republicans. Etc.

eke out posted:"We've definitely gotten screwed so far, so the only thing to do is further legitimize Kim" It's not even about legitimizing Kim Jong-un at this point; that ship has sailed. This is about letting him dunk on Trump in front of a worldwide audience, and for some reason Trump is super-happy to let him do it because everyone around him is saying it'll get him a Nobel Prize.

I'm arguing with a person on facebook who says they won't vote for Bernie if he's the nominee, because of what his supporters did to Clinton. I was a Clinton primary vote and I was pretty peeved at Bernie by the end of the process but drat if that isn't a pretty disgusting thing to say. The liberal-left alliance against the right needs to go both ways or it isn't an alliance at all. For 50 years the left has been told "you gotta vote for liberals, or else the Republicans win!" and now even the possibility of a marginally left wing person competing for the presidency is enough to make some people lose their minds. This is why I wanted that macro.

5.1 Million Pounds of Beef has been recalled due to salmonella Hmmm...I am going to take a WILD guess in light of the most recent romaine lettuce recall that relaxed regulations had something to do with this. Isn't it pretty rare that the FDA does a recall? Usually its the company that sells the product.... Edit: Jesus Christ. This is an expansion of the recall in October of 6.5 million lbs of beef friendbot2000 fucked around with this message at 16:05 on Dec 4, 2018 |
