Feldegast42 posted:If that happens Trump gets to appoint their replacements and the Republic officially ends as they back him when he inevitably contests the 2020 election That's assuming there is no political fallout whatsoever from the entire military command structure resigning in protest over the incompetence of the commander-in-chief. The trap this would put every elected Republican in is absolutely fiendish in its inescapability. Now it's the entire military, the ones you've glorified for, oh, EVER, going against your circus sideshow carnival barking con man. I guess the military are the traitors now? All of them? This is such whiplash up-is-down insanity it might even end up... >gasp< MATTERING.

That's what we all said about Trump getting elected My fears of a coup have gone down but complacently assuming that the institutions of our society will always do the right thing in the end got us to this point in the first place Also Gallagher should be hung high for what he did, my whole point is that giving the GOP a chance to purge and replace the top levels of the military right before what is going to be a very contested election one way or another would be a Very loving Bad Idea I guess the compromise solution would be to obey Trump's very immoral order and then stick Gallagher and his team on latrine duty until they are discharged or we get a president that will throw him back into Leavenworth Feldegast42 fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Nov 23, 2019 |

BigBallChunkyTime posted:No, I meant some Goons in this thread. Not really. One side says the officers involved should flat out refuse the order (if given in non-tweet form) rather than resign. The other side says that refusing a legal (if immoral) order is a bad precedent, because the military could then refuse to do stuff if someone like Bernie were to get elected. They're not saying that psycho seal should be reinstated, they're saying that quitting would be the preferable option if that does happen.

About polls: it’s worth noting that you can legally straight up fabricate everything about a poll, from the methodology to the raw data to the interpreted results, and as long as you just copy what the results of the other guys are for awhile and continuously release new polls regularly you will eventually be taken seriously by some news organization. At that point you can just start skewing things however you want. This is why lots of campaigns do internal polling since at least they have some sort of look into the internals and can trust it a bit. There is basically no scientific rigor in public polling and it’s astounding how much people rely on it.

mistaya posted:Apache Junction being called a suburb of Phoenix is misleading. It's way out in the boonies. There used to be a chunk of empty desert between it and East Mesa but I don't know if it's been built out yet by now. I guess you could technically call it a suburb but it's a good 40-50 minute drive from Phoenix to Apache Junction, and that's essentially as the crow flies since you just take 60 east and it's a completely straight road. AJ absolutely is a suburb of Phoenix. Just like Buckeye is, or Anthem or I'd even include Maricopa. That area of Phoenix is very conservative and a hot bed of Mormon activity. Mostly represented at the US Congress by Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar (the guy who's siblings were in an ad saying don't vote for our brother). It's Chudtown out there.

Oh okay, so when he said that he had an insurance policy against Trump throwing him under the bus, he of course meant that he had a bunch of info that was actually super HELPFUL to Trump that he would release if Trump ever turned on him. This clears everything up. God drat how is this poo poo real.
