"Hey, where's the toilet at your house?"

"erm... let's say I have a converted bidet. Make sure you watch the temp settings"

I live in an older building, so for my luxury apartment I installed two toilet seats in case one gets clogged and maintenance is busy with AC repairs or something. Often both are working so if it is yellow I let it mellow. If it is brown I flush it down. This setup is good when I need to vomit while making GBS threads, two bowls really makes a difference. Anything else makes you look lazy. Great for holding hands with my lover while we share the experience, too!

It's a valid defense strategy to not shut the gently caress up about the catch-and-kill aspect of it because you're right, it's not a crime. So the defense getting the jury to focus all of their attention on that increases the likelihood of a not guilty verdict. It's the prosecutor's job to keep the jury focused on where the money came from and paying Cohen back, then lying in all of the documentation underlying those payments. That's the crime.

The felony was Pecker was making an illegal in-kind donation to Trump's campaign and Pecker is fully admitting that was the understanding and that Trump personally told him that Cohen was his personally directed goon to do illegal poo poo at his request.

Today was an extremely bad day for Trump, his previous goal was to discredit Cohen as a lying scumbag goon attorney that did lying scumbag goon attorney things without his knowledge. Today means he has to discredit Pecker, which is a much more difficult task because any one with any sense understands what Trump was doing with Cohen and Pecker, directing crime.

I'm thinking NONE. They got off their rear end to go vote in a primary for a candidate that isn't on the ballot and has withdrawn her candidacy just as a protest against MAGA. They didn't have to get up and go anywhere today.

If Haley's out, this vote doesn't do anything, right? It just means that a huge slice of GOP voters from this state took the opportunity to wave a big middle finger at their own nominee?
That has to be a catastrophically bad sign, right?

If you actually came out to vote for a candidate that isn't on the ballot, I sincerely doubt you're going to go back to the polls to vote for the guy who you protest-voted against today in November.

I think you'd be surprised. Lots of people hold their noses and vote for their party's candidate even after throwing away a protest vote in the primary when they could safely register their opinion without directly hurting their party's chances. But that's a lot of protest votes for an unopposed primary, and in a tight race shaving off even 2-3% of your reliable voters is a pretty big problem.

In this case though the other candidate had already dropped out though so you’d have to go out of your way to protest vote. This isn’t just voting for an alternative, it’s actively saying “I am going out of my way to say gently caress the other guy”

which is why blue states like pennsylvania are increasingly focusing on mail-in voting as a voter outreach goal. republicans have spent years demonizing mail-in votes so their constitutents are the most inconvenienced by this in swing states, like PA.

Rick Scott actually set it all on fire two years ago yes

Every level of the GOP is borderline broke. Mike Johnson raised ~a third of what McCarty did in his first quarter as Speaker and a big chunk of that was transfers from other R members of the house. State parties are going broke because whatever small dollar volunteers Trump doesn't hoover up he's exhausted. In fact his presidential is effectively double dipping on any money the RNC raises. The Trump campaign, the Trump PAC and then the RNC are the priority order on RNC donations which is a huge lol.

I think its an open question how much outside PACs will throw at him this cycle but I'm guessing its won't actually be that much. From their position they are throwing good money after bad just to catch him up to the start line after all his legal fees and there's the nonzero chance he might just be in jail on election day anyways.
