Adam Pachinko Machine has a weird mommy complex with Hillary and has been obsessed with her since like high school and got welcomed in but Dou was a bit too eager to say he'd go yell at bernie supporters online for her so they pushed him to the fringe and now all the people she has left are the kinds of people who'd be equally suspected if she was found skinned and made into a human suit. She's made her own hell and hell you simply love to see it.

Couple pages back, but this would be deeply worrying in the 90's or even the early to mid 2000's.

Its pointless today. Everyone is off the sidelines, and most of the remaining "independents" are humiliated Republicans. It is now a turnout game, and if Democrats vote, they win. If Warren energizes turnout, the Dems win. The only downside is she might energize the GOP too which could limit the chances of a massive crushing landslide instead of just a nice normal landslide, but whatever.

My favorite "independent" story was from when I was at gym a while back and I overheard someone proudly say that they were an independent because they voted for JFK. He then proceeded to spew out a litany of Fox News talking points

My dude, JFK was 50 years ago

The cocktail of seeing admitting one was wrong about something as weakness and marinading in the poo poo stew of Fox News and other right wing sewage is rather potent.

Their goal is to scream it increasingly louder until it sticks, same as always.

if you watch the ad that trump campaign put out it seems like their plan is to make it look like the democrats are doing this imppeachment out of spite or is a relitigation of 2016. He says in the ad that the democrats dont think they can win so we are cheating. I couldd imagine that a lot of independents allong with every chud is going to believe this poo poo. what do you think the dems can do to counteract this narrative or replace it with the truth?

Every single independent maybe voted for a Democrat or two in their 20s, but then hauled their rear end to gently caress-you-got-mine town and have been straight R ever since -- just ashamed to admit it.

Nah, there are independents who are like "Jill Stein is #1" types too. Most of the 'undecided' independents though are straight R.

If this is it, it doesn't look like much out of the ordinary, just getting paid to go to a Russian funded conference.

He also claimed he thought it was a pro-armenian conference, which is why he cancelled.

If he headlined it last year, he probably knew what it was.

Not that we all didn't know that, but it's funny to make him squirm.

He lied about thinking it was an Armenian conference and therefore tried to obfuscate his Russian connection, I guess.

Wow, just caught up on the last 80 pages of this thread over a bottle of wine :stonk:

Aside from the usual GOP sycophants like Graham and rabidly GOP House R’s, I’m really surprised there’s not more unified Republican pushback on this. It seems to me like everyone is waiting for their marching orders.

Was also surprised at what a good job Schiff did in those hearings the other day.

I think the real one to watch, as always, is McConnell. I imagine he’s doing the political calculus right now on if he can knife Trump over this and ride into a Dem presidency in the senate as majority/minority leader. After making GBS threads on Obama, packing the courts under Trump, then cutting him loose in the name of patriotism or loyalty to country over party or whatever, to finish out his career basically just howling “Dems bad” without the distraction of Trump bringing constant attention to CRIMES seems straight out of the McConnell playbook.
