canepazzo posted:"you can tell the Kardashians you tried" This more than anything cemented that no matter how much we mock the Kardashians as useless reality TV show nothings, they now traffic in REAL power. They have the ear of the President to the point he answers to them.

Yeah, everyone thought his testimony was going to be boring next to Hill dueling Republicans with an increasingly-bloody sword, but...  eke out posted:considering Sondland denied any conversation with Holmes about Biden, i suspect we're going to hear a lot more about this in direct examination shortly

SchrodingersCat posted:It telegraphs what their angle is. They are already looking past acquitting Trump and maneuvering for 2020. The Democrats are approaching this as though the Senate will act in good faith and hold a real trial. The actions of Senate Republicans in light of the evidence bring revealed in these hearings very much indicates that they will not do so. The Democrats need to be a lot more aggressive in terms of getting things out there in very simple, digestible 4th grade language that the American public will understand. Sorkinesque bullshit soundbytes are not going to help; the Democrats (and Schiff in particular) are doing a very good job with these hearings and pretending otherwise is some serious revisionism.

Given the relative prestige given to British accents in America generally it will be extra nice to hear her slap down Nunes's conspiracy theories.

Very weird that her accent would hold her back in England, because it is amazing and I immediately, reflexively trust it for reasons I do not understand.

It's going to be funny to watch Nunes and Gym and their pals completely ignore that these witnesses are basically ripping all their arguments apart.

The close geographically but highly socioeconomically stratified accents of England are really interesting, it's like the presence or absence of the R in "fourth floor" determined by ~20 feet vertically. Give or take. I don't know how high the ceilings are at that Macy's.

Television and film has presented such accents as authoritative for decades, and this subconsciously makes you associate her accent with such things.

The only real difference between British and American southern accents is speed- if you slow down British, they sound Southern, and if you speed up Southerners, they sound English.
