"Cimbal, a loyal Republican, wants people to think about how to curb illegal immigration and protect Second Amendment gun ownership rights, but she’s mainly drawn to Trump because she thinks his plain talk can get things done. Her goal is to restore a time “when there wasn’t as much animosity toward each other, when everything wasn’t about race and people just got along.”"

I must have missed that day in history class where we learned about the era of racial harmony in America...

At the cost of pissing off the donor class and the political class (and the other campaigns.)

Does Trump even have any donors? I thought he was doing this all out of his own pockets, which was why no one had any leverage to get rid of him.

Nope the Republicans on the hearing were too busy stating Illumanti-level theories to ever ask a sane question like that. It was a poo poo show. The closest it came was Tammy Duckworth (D) asking about proper funding of State security, which Clinton was enormously happy to answer considering the cavalcade of retardity thrown in her direction for the past 6 hours.

The Republicans asked increasingly insane questions about conspiracy theories and irrelevant talking points. One of them even admitted afterward that nothing new was learned for the entire 11 hours.

The Democrats used their speaking time to denounce the whole committee as a partisan circus.

Hillary looked presidential and the smartest, calmest person in the room for the entire time.

The phrase Stolen Valour is just fart huffing stupid. It sounds like something some trogolditic House Republican would name a bill to give it a patriotic ring while slyly cutting funding for something important.

It was indeed a bill once, but after passage it was struck down as a first amendment violation.

Historically speaking, campaigns based on fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency were once very successful, although devotion to the Pope has gone way downhill recently.

I thought they were doing a race reversed casting like Patrick Stewart's Othello which... actually wouldn't have been any better.

It would be more defensible as there is a surprising amount of historical nuance and contextual complexity behind Othello's use of race and skin color, as you would expect of a 400-year-old work.

But yeah, you really shouldn't do it with a character based on a man that a huge number of people can remember meeting in real life.

The do indeed overturn their own decision, look at Plessy vs Ferguson (Separate but Equal) in 1896 getting overturned by Brown vs Board of Education (1954).

Also note that sometimes that poo poo takes a very, very long time.

Yeah, while they *can* overturn their own decisions, practically it won't happen unless the makeup of the court significantly changes.

What about that time a state congress had a fluff bill to name the state bird and the crazy GOPer turned it into a crazy anti-abortion rant.

The actual group of schoolchildren got to learn an important truth that day.

Not as much fun as the time an actual schoolchild proposed giving South Carolina an official state fossil and the legislature turned it into a huge slapfight over evolution.

It was bad, but it really does feel like there are more people now in actual positions of power pushing barely concealed messages of bigotry and hate, and that the general support for that kind of rhetoric is a lot stronger.

I don't think we've reached the level of the president's advisors pushing for and actually getting a shooting war against an unrelated country.

I read somewhere that something like 40% of all conceptions end in a miscarriage.

This is only true if you count failure to implant as miscarriage, if this happens the woman will probably never even know about it.
