Sorry everyone, unfortunately there’s no one under the age of 70 who’s qualified to be president. Also the bench is dogshit, a bunch of freaks who’ve been padding their resumes for decades.

SlurredSpeech609 posted:They booked a cruise in Miami and a hotel in Napa. Read what you quoted. I'm a well experienced trial attorney used to reading this sort of motion. The motion doesn't say "They booked a cruise," the motion says "they bought a plane ticket to Miami, and also there are two lines on his credit card with a cruise company." The motion doesn't say they vacationed in Napa Valley, it says "they bought a plane ticket to San Francisco, and separately there are two hotel rooms in Napa a month later." That's enough for talking heads on Fox to screech that they booked a cruise together and vacationed in Napa together, but it is a far, far cry from actual proof of those things. It's just as likely the dude bought the hotel for them for a case meeting and the cruise with his sister and her kids on hotels.com on the same day. And it's just as likely that he and his girlfriend went to Napa a month after he and Willis went to meet with Twitter execs about their search warrant. Now, mind you, I also wouldn't put it past her because I used to be a prosecutor and work with a lot of government lawyers and know how fantastically loving stupid they are capable of being. Edit: It's like saying "Bob bought gas at a gas station, and then Bob also spent $30 at a liquor store, therefore Bob was driving drunk." Like, sure, it's within the universe of possibilities that those two correlating purchases mean Bob drove drunk, but it's much much more likely that Bob just went about his day doing normal things. Finding two correlating purchases in the entire history of someone's credit card statements and using them to draw wild conclusions would be trivially easy. I bet you could tell some wild stories looking at two random purchases on mine, or yours, or anyone's. BigHead fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Jan 21, 2024 |

She really believed his talking points when they were in the White House. But that photo of him and her snapped at the funeral, getting into the car? She absolutely cannot stand him. No way anyone looks at another human that way otherwise. Hey, no one said being a gold digger was easy. You have to put up with the rich old guy you are mining. I feel no pity for her, she knew what she was getting into.

I’m not about to defend Melania because roflmao no, but they got married in 2005. This was in no way something she could’ve predicted unless you want to make the daring argument that Trump has been following some kind of plan here. Not saying you should pity her, I certainly don’t, but your reasoning is just flatly incorrect.

No, I mean he's been known to be a scumbag shitheel for decades now, long before he was on the national stage as President. She knew what type of man she was getting herself tied too and she did it anyways. I don't think he really wanted to be POTUS in the first place, that empty eyed look in his face (and everyone elses face) when he realized he was actually elected president in 2016 seems to confirm that. The suspicion that he was just trying to negotiate a better deal with NBC over The Apprentice still holds water. She got dragged along to the White House with the rest of them.

Do you think she wasn't aware of the reaction she would earn for the "I don't care, do you?" jacket she wore that one time?

Yeah none of this poo poo hangs together. Yeah, she married an rear end in a top hat for the money and is a pretty bad person in her own right. No, she emphatically could not have predicted this. She did not, in fact, know this was going to happen when she married him. Bringing up unrelated points does not support this argument. I’m done with this conversation unless you can start remembering your own point for the whole post. This is dumb.

It remains an amazing turning point in history that nearly a decade of the politics of the most powerful nation on Earth have been completely hosed because a TV show conman hosed up his plan to lose a Presidential Campaign. 8 years later and I still can't figure out whether it's sadder to lose to a guy trying to throw the race himself, or win despite your whole new media empire plan requiring you to lose.

Trazz posted:I don't think Trump "wanted to lose" His plan was to do another vanity campaign to boost his status for negotiations with NBC and other media companies. When he then started doing much better than the other losers running, the plan changed into setting up his own right wing media company to continue hosing all the chumps who were supporting him. Actually winning the election was not at all in the plans and he absolutely never wanted to be President. It was only after he failed to lose that his ego rewrote his personal reality to that being the plan all along.

No, it's just a quirky corollary to living in the hell timeline that nobody is happy, not even the shitheel, Trump. Trump is bad for everyone, including himself and our diseased system.

Yoshi Wins posted:Definitely the former imo. Hillary was truly a historically garbage candidate. My '07 Obamatar is speaking from the dead but I've felt for ages that Clinton is fundamentally just an anemic candidate. She only achieves victory if she has every advantage on her side and she implodes in the face of the slightest challenge. Winning a democratic senate primary is pure cake as a Clinton, and winning the actual seat is even more cake in the state of NY. Barack Obama was her first actual challenge and he overcame all of her natural head-starts to just beat on her like a drum. Nominating her in 2016 was a massive mistake given that A, she's a proven Bad Campaigner and B, she's a lightning rod for conservatives (even if it's somewhat undeserved). Trump cratered the country so when I say there's a silver lining, it's microscopic, but I'm glad she was practically locked out of politics after that event.

BigHead posted:Saying someone is an "intended travel partner" is about as meaningful as saying "we still have unanswered questions." I thought the divorce was over her admitted infidelity in like 2017? That makes me think the timing on the divorce filing has more to do with his new status as a much lower official income person than anything to do with Willis. “I was making a million a year but now that I’m going to be making 250k for the next three or four years I should just pull the trigger and get out now while any alimony is going to be limited.” It’s going to be hilarious if it turns out Wade does have a girlfriend and it ain’t Willis.
