Reagan and Daddy Bush were also much closer to the USSR by the end of the 80's and into the early 90's when it went belly up. The stuff the right gets hard over is more the Andropov/Chernenko and early Gorbachev parts of the 80's.
Like it's hilarious they think Reagan just beat his manly chest hard enough to collapse them or whatever.

The usual argument is that Reagan's renewed round of defense spending (Star Wars™, but also serious projects) finally drove the USSR into bankruptcy while attempting to keep up with the arms race. However, the USSR's economy had already flatlined more or less on its own in the late 70's. Spending 17-25% of your GNP on the military (estimate circa 1988) certainly wasn't healthy compared to the US's ~6-7%, but it wasn't the primary factor.

I honestly was not expecting Gorsuch to be a potential swing vote judge. This also means that Roberts probably voted in the dissenting column which doesn't exactly fill one with much confidence in Supreme Court and the idea that he's any sort of reliable swing vote. Alito, Thomas and Kavanaugh are obviously hot garbage and should be expected to side with the regressive opinion pretty much every time as they always have. The upcoming potential Roe v. Wade saving decision pretty much shakes up like

Overturning:

Alito
Thomas
Kavanaugh

?????:

Gorsuch
Roberts

Keeping:

Breyer
Sotomayor
Ginsburg
Kagan

Not exactly a great look considering we shouldn't even be having this conversation in 2019, but given McConell's obsession with slamming hyper conservative judges through nomination it could look a whole lot worse considering through hell and high water Ginsburg is still there. Imagine if Obama never got 2 picks as well. Imagine Bush or Trump got them instead. :gonk:

It's going to be worse. Thomas is going to retire this summer, and the court is going to have a 5-seat conservative majority that will likely last for 4 or 5 decades, unless the Democratic Party gets its poo poo together with regard to packing the Supreme Court. Trump has also appointed 1/6th of the judges that currently sit on federal courts, and that number is only going to grow.

The Democratic Party has been completely out-maneuvered on the courts.

I think that's an overly optimistic take on what's happening. Gorsuch voted with the liberals on one of his pet issues where he's somewhat reasonable. Roberts may do the same from time to time. But there's not going to be a swingy, moderate judge that everyone tries to win over, because no one on the court is really a moderate or persuadable. There are just rare, seemingly random, minor issues where one of the right-wingers has quirky views.

The media and the Democrats aren't advocating for the conditions to be improved though, they're just saying to stop separating the children and then when they stopped separating the children that was worse somehow. It's because they don't really give a poo poo about children, all they care about is making Trump look bad and weakening the borders

Yeah the connection is extremely tenuous, he says he favors the exceptions and we must stay united or whatever. The headlines are all making it out to be him denouncing the bill, whereas he's just sightly contradicting it. It would've been quite a thing to see, if he actually did -- since it's literally the only reason a not-insignificant subset of voters will go for him in 2020.

My guess is that Trump currently has lawsuits or threats to go public from women that he has impregnated, and then paid for their abortions. And by that I mean they got abortions and he never paid for them. Cohen would be the one to ask.

Toilet Rascal
Trump has been burned by this before- in 2016 he did some interview where he said that women who have abortions should be punished. Then both sides began screaming in unison and he walked it back after someone managed to get it through his head how much that could hurt him. And now someone signed literally that into law, and the idea that it's bad is still stuck in his brain so it popped out again.

NPR had an interview with Standard Republican Flak #77 this morning where the guy repeatedly stated that Trump had criticized the abortion bills, and then attempted to spin it as a big win for Republicans because Trump "Represents the real Republican party which knows how to put the brakes on, voters know they can trust their President to lead from the front even when his own party gets too heated" or something like that.

It was really, really weird. "Actually we meant to criticize our own party for being nutbags!"

please leave weird fanfic out of this thread

donald trump openly supports these bills that illegally completely criminalize abortion. he happens to nominally support rape/incest exceptions, but they don't matter and it's just a figleaf and they're not stopping him from supporting these insane bills.

if any of this stuff you say was true, it would've already happened
