My favourite thing about Trump's twitter is the (intended) expression of grim, steely resolve in his profile pic, when compared with the hysterical flailing and whining he actually writes.

i mean, people are definitely going to die when he loses. i'm not sure that constitutes a civil war, at least what i'm envisioning, but there will be a fair amount of violence. could escalate into something super bad, i guess, but that's unlikely. all of this is only going to get uglier until there's a boiling point. it's inevitable, and him losing could very well be that.

A "Trump for President" sign was included in a Rage Against the Machine video because it seemed completely ridiculous.

Zotix posted:I'll beli be this Paul Ryan inside job stuff when I see it. Aside from Chris wallace, Judge Nap and Shep, I haven't see any indication outside of those three that the rest of Fox is on board. At least not yet. They could be trying it out selectively to see how ratings react or to see if there’s a point where enough people will stop consuming praise of Trump. That poster above was right to mention that fox news will have to keep going post-Trump, while Trump himself will not.

Thomas Friedman was a guest on Fareed Zakaria earlier saying that the Democrats should bring on a special investigator/ prosecutor in to do most of the investigating/ question asking in order to bring a bit more legitimacy to the impeachment inquiry. Do you guys think this might be a stronger route to go? This is the link to which I'm referring https://youtu.be/SyCsMwkLJ0E Jump to about 32 minutes in.

You'd need 13 GOP senators to vote for that to make it past a filibuster and Trump would go nuclear on every single one who voted for it and never forgive them.

House democrats (Schiff, Cummings, Nadler, Waters, etc.) need to be in the driver’s seat the last thing we need is another special counsel type figure.

Look at how often they’ve run stories about Clinton or Obama because Manafort was being arrested or something and they didn’t want to run the story because they didn’t have a spin ready.

As long as Giuliani continues to garner ratings there isn’t a single network that will give two flying shits about whether what he says is true. Frankly, Biden should be thanking his lucky stars that the standard bearer for the Trump counterpunch is a guy who can’t go 30 seconds on air without further implicating his client.

Rex-Goliath posted:Dude it’s Thomas Friedman. You should ignore anything he says flat out. Find someone else with an ounce of reputation to get opinions from. Also don’t watch 24/7 news. Yep. Tom Friedman's prediction for the winner of the 2012 presidential election, made entirely in earnest and without a shred of irony, was "America". He's occasionally worth reading for insight into a particular worldview. That worldview is completely unequipped to handle the systemic failures that lead to Trump being president and the resulting abuses of his administration. fake edit: made a bet with myself and won that Friedman would reference a probably fake conversation with a third party to make his main point. Also, lol at trying to force a "bit of more than he could chew" idiom into the context of the Tyson/Holyfield fight. eviltastic fucked around with this message at 05:38 on Sep 30, 2019 |
