Makes sense. I can see the dems buying that deal too. But I wonder if Fairfax will resign under the circumstances. Seems much more likely than it ever was that Northam would resign, but we'll see.

The accusations are serious and, frankly, he's black. And he's not the governor. So yeah I think impeachment is more likely. But I don't know how Virginia politics work. Can the governor just put another lt governor in or does it have to go through legislation or is it an election or what? That's probably the largest consideration on if Fairfax is kicked out or not.

The desperation to find ways of making her ugly in these cartoons is really telling. Garrison seems to prefer to make her into a child to avoid having to admit that she’s conventionally attractive and has a pretty sophisticated sense of style.

Northam has a pretty solid out of this situation: meet with the black VA dem group, appoint the person they approve to lt.gov, and resign stating that he is going to go and get educated more on an issue that he can see he doesn't quite understand. Then spend a few years actually progressing and going around doing stuff to actually help the black and other minority communities, and he'd be able to get back into politics I bet.

Bryan Singer's coke-fueled house parties for which he would recruit young twinks were a running "joke" in the West Hollywood gay club scene as recently as 2012. It was an open secret for a long long time that he liked 'em young and liked to ply them with drugs.

I remember seeing a video - I think on The Usual Suspects DVD - of singer and David Hayter (the voice of Solid Snake) sitting poolside and working on the script for the first X-Men movie. Knowing what I know know about Singer, it really put that video in a different context. What does Solid Snake know? :smith:

I'm not sure Northam need a way out at this point. All he has to do is keep his mouth shut and not moonwalk and he's probably fine. Rape > blackface. I don't think he's looking for genuine personal growth. The lt. governor being a rapist will overshadow his political scandal completely.

Trump’s ‘success’ with North Korea is one of his few ‘victories’ so he’s going to bring it up ever so often to remind people he saved the world.

He doesn’t really know how he did though so he’s trying to keep the whole charade afloat by stoking Kim’s ego and treating him as an equal.

Well, I guess I just want the story to end on a somewhat positive note instead of sweeping "the entire non-raping part of our leadership is pretty ok with blackface" under the rug and waiting out the news cycle clock.

i think your putting to much thought into it on trumps part. i think its more the meeting happened and kim and his staff realized they could just butter him up and it loving worked. trump admires dictators and poo poo and when they stroke his ego, he loves them.

Don't live in VA, but for the sake of the rest of this nation's future politics, gently caress his political solid-out possibilities. Let him meet with the black VA dem group, and be run out on a rail. "Educated more" is too loving late. Those who ended up as "strange fruit" never got a chance to be "educated more". Never got a chance to get "back into politics" either, IIRC.

an out... to do what? You can only serve one-term as Governor in VA and he's too conservative to win any other state-wide office or move any higher.
